We found this hotel on the GPS in our rental car as we were driving up Highway 1. Drove by for a look and had to stay. They had us the second we walked through the doors. A complimentary glass of wine upon check in. Little appetizers by the fire. My husband and I were allowed to check out rooms... More

We found this wonderful inn on Select Registry & were blown away by the 301 Restaurant & wine selections! We had a lovely room. They were having problems with the heat & offered us a space heater but we didn't need it. We were the only ones in the dining room that evening & after a glass of complimentary wine... More

I travel for business and have stayed at the Carter house many many times. Each time it's like a home away from home. The Hotel is full of interesting people from young couples to retirees and business travelers. The food at the restaurant (Named 301) is amazing and you can choose from delicious appetitizers to full course meals. Ashley and... More

For my birthday celebration, my husband recently treated me to a one night stay at the Hotel Carter (we live nearby) and dinner at Restaurant 301. It was wonderful. From the moment we set foot in the lobby we were swept away with the scent of their beautiful Christmas tree and their friendly, informative staff. Our suite (201) was beautiful... More

This review is for the Inn and restaurant. One of the most charming and original hotels that I've ever stayed at. The decor is inspired and very chic. We stayed in one of the cottages and didn't want to leave. The restaurant was fantastic - great food and great service. Also one of the most astounding wine lists I've ever... More

The Carter House is so charming!!! My husband and I think it is one of the most special hotels in all of Northern California!!! It truly feels like you went back in time to the Victorian Era. The rooms are very comfortable. The service is first class, and the food in the dining room is to die for, not to... More

We were traveling with a 4 year old and a dog. Tricky, I know. This beautiful upscale inn was incredibly accomodating and polite. Fresh cookies and tea in the evening. A gorgeous bar in the lobby, and one of the best dinners we had on our 3 week trip. Make sure and eat onsite. They even made our son noodles... More

Nice to find such decadent luxury so close to home for a special celebration. The Carter house Inn's luxury lives up to it's reputation. For a special birthday we managed to combine an elegant dinner with elegant accommodations and felt feted, pampered & relaxed in a short, 1 night, stay. Fabulous room, fabulous staff. Perfect. More

We spent one night at the Carter House and it was very sweet. We arrived late and left early so our experience was limited. The front desk woman was terrific and gave us an upgrade to a king bedded room. The regular price on the room was vastly too much for the locale at $385. Breakfast was not impressive. More
