Location, location, location. If you are a resort-only person, forget it. Wydown is for people who want to walk out the door and have the option to pop in at a cool antique/thrift shop, grab dinner at Cook, stop in Orin Swift’s wine tasting room, or shop at Veronica Beard (and many other wonderful options) steps from the hotel. Comfortable bed, zero views, but that is compensated for with a cozy, quietly elegant in-like hotel. We’ll be back.

Great experience. Staff could not have been friendlier. It's an older hotel, so maybe bring a sleeping mask if you wish to sleep in or take a nap (light gets in around window blinds and skylight). Otherwise, great experience, and the location could not be better. Walk to everything in St. Helena. Will definitely be back...

This property is very well-located, with friendly staff, a pretty common area and a simple, yet satisfying breakfast included. In the room, the nespresso and still/sparkling waters were a welcome amenity, as were the Molten Brown bath products. The bed was a bit saggy and uncomfortable to me (husband disagreed) and room and the bathroom were kind of sad and nondescript . There is a strange skylight in the room so bring a sleep mask if the light will bother you. It would have all been completely fine, except for the fact we averaged $700/night and at that rate were expecting much, much more. We never spend that much just to sleep and shower, however we had a wedding to attend and stay options are limited. This hotel is a $350 max/night experience,

We had an issue with the noisy heater in room 8, keeping my husband awake. Sabrina supplied us with an extra duvet, blanket, and space heater so we could turn off the heater. Then, he slept like a baby!

A very nice hotel with lovely staff, but we stayed in one of the larger front corner rooms. While the view was nice with the tree lined Main Street, it is the main ‘highway’ through Napa, so there are a lot of cars and trucks passing by during business hours. It was quite noisy in the morning.

There are many pleasant things about the Wydown, but the hotel did not meet my expectations.

When I arrived in the afternoon at around check-in time, I was advised that I was receiving an “upgrade” to a corner room. The room itself was lovely, but it faced Main Street. I was concerned about the street noise and called the front desk and asked to be moved elsewhere. I was advised that the only other room available was a similar corner room overlooking Main Street. No explanation was given why the premium room I had reserved was not available. I was offered the use of a white noise machine, which I accepted. Later that night we also turned on a Dyson fan in the room as an additional sound block.

The problem is this. Main Street in St. Helena is also the main north/south highway running through Napa Valley, Route 29. The hotel is located on a block on which there is a traffic signal. Large trucks apparently make lots of noise when they decelerate to stop at the light, and then also when they accelerate to begin travel again. This room is on the second floor and this loud truck noise is not blocked out by either a white noise machine or a Dyson fan. There was a very loud truck at about 4:30 a.m., and at about 6:30 a.m. the loud truck noise began to come with some frequency. This is not the experience I was seeking from this hotel, and I would not stay in this room again.

The positive points of staying at WyDown hotel:

This hotel is located in St Helena’s downtown on Main Street, even though hotel’s in a old building, but its lobby and rooms look very nice and very clean, it’s managers and staffs are well trained, they are friendly, and always willing to help. The first day after my husband and I arrived at WyDown, we couldn’t rest in peace because the heavy traffic noise from outside our room’s windows. The next morning I got an email from manager Michael, who promising to let us change room, by the afternoon we were able to move into a much quiet room. I’m very happy for hotel management’s quick response to our situation.

Here’s some suggestions for the hotel:
1) improve the insulation of hotel’s windows
2) replace room’s tv screen to the wall which facing the bed’s headboard, not to the side of the bed.
3) add some simple morning bread toast or cereals in hotel’s continental breakfast

Perfect for business and leisure

I was here for business but was able to sneak in some leisure and this place sits right in the heart of everything. To the left and right, shopping and restaurants. And 15 mins from wine tasting heaven! Highly recommend.

Front clerk, Kara, house keeper, Rossy, and bfast staff member, Vicky/Becky, made the experience very much enjoyable. They were all personable, kind, professional, and helpful.

This location does not have a gym on site BUT guest get free access to the Spa and fitness center which is amazing and has eucalyptus sauna, pool, steam rooms, and nice gym!

Don’t judge a book by its cover! The building’s interior has a hip and modern vibe. Service was warm and friendly. Room was spacious. Appreciated the access to a semi private outdoor patio. The second floor halls are hardwood flooring which makes late night arrivals noisy. The hvac system in the room was also much too loud for our liking and didn’t consistently keep the desired room temp. Continental breakfast was perfect for an early morning start and hotel is in a great location in St. Helena.
