Maricela
Updated room w/all the basic amenities including wine glasses! Pool area, hot tub & sauna well maintained. Included continental breakfast. Just right off the main drag to St. Helena. Glad we found this place, highly recommend.
Andrea
We stayed in a pool view queen room that was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Beautifully landscaped property with a nice pool. Continental breakfast offered. Quick and easy check in and out.
Jennifer
The room was clean, beds were comfortable, black out curtains. All the basic amenities were available. We were in a family suite the main room had 2 queen beds, the second room had the King bed. Both rooms had access to the back lawn area with chairs to relax on. Breakfast was your standard Continental breakfast, the pastries were really good. Because they were completely booked (summer weekend) there was only one parking spot available, so we needed to find street parking for our second vehicle. We did that just fine. Location is fantastic, close to wineries and restaurants.
Carrie
Solo traveling. Everything was exceptional.
Catherine
I always enjoy staying here for location to events nearby , ease of check-in and environment.
Christine
The maid was mad that we were still in our room and spoke up to us. We tried to get a late check out but the phone in the room wasn’t working. I brought my puppy bc my mom was in the ICU and this housekeeper made my trip very stressful. When I talked to the staff in the office he said he would have granted me a late check out. She said new guests were coming and I need to get out. Ok lady take a chill pill.
Caroline
2nd time here....seems to have been updated

I love staying there because it’s pet friendly and clean and off the Main Street
Sylvia
Lovely spot dated but well located also expensive
Terence
Deceptive looks from the street. That's the tip of the iceberg. Large rooms. Great kidney pool and a fire pit in back
Good location for wine country dining and tasting

Toshiro
We had such a wonderful time celebrating our anniversary in Napa and St. Helena, and this hotel truly made our trip unforgettable! The comfy bed, fresh sheets, clean bathroom, and prime location all added to the magic.
David
Charming motel, friendly helpful staff. Bed was a bit too soft for my liking. Good location. I would recommend staying here.
Beth
Very affordable and perfect for our two nights in Napa valley.
Hermelinda
Hi. My room had lots of spiders the sink was clogged the whole time and the AC didn’t stay on completely went on and off.
Patricia
The property and staff were amazing. The closed proximity to fantastic wine tasting made it all the better. Would definitely stay here again.
Scarlett
Pool was great and room was nice and clean
Jonathan
Loved it. Would stay again.
Michelle
This is a great boutique style hotel, rates were great for being in Napa Valley. The four of us booked the downstairs room which had two bedrooms and 3 big comfortable beds. It was perfect for us. The pool and hot tub were a nice amenity, and the complimentary breakfast each morning was nice to wake up to. The people running this hotel were super friendly and helpful, we would definitely book this place again!
cormac
Nice motel with clean, well equipped rooms. Great swimming pool and hot tub for guest use also. In a good location for exploring the Napa valley - walking distance from restaurants and on a bus route to downtown Napa and the main wineries. Continental breakfast included in the rate - but get there early as it runs out!
Linda
Enjoyed outdoor spaces. Breakfast was good.
Victor
Clean room. Good breakfast with fresh coffee. Great swimming pool
Yenari
Comfortable bed, breakfast was available.
Sauna was very nice.
Sauna was very nice.
Colleen
We spent 8 nights at hotels in CA and this was by far the best. The room was large and actually had counter space! They even provided real glasses (not recyclable cardboard stuff) and a wine opener! We will definitely stay at the “El Bo” again when in town 💪
Melissa
I have no complaints
Erika
I enjoyed the premium room pull side. It was very comfortable, great to have two televisions and close proximity to breakfast. Stayed with my daughter for a mini vacation and it was perfect .
Katherine
Lovely rooms, great location. Breakfast was simple but appreciated. Overall great value for families.
Adam
Wish there were hooks in the room to hang towels and bathing suits. Other than that, great place to stay!
Laura
Very clean, well maintained excellent location
jeff
Great little motel in an excellent location!
Amanda
Loved this place! What a gem! Would 100% stay here again if I ever make it back to Napa Valley. Clean rooms, the breakfast was amazing, the staff was super friendly, and the place has free parking.
Jennifer
I was pleasantly surprised how well kept this place is! Enjoyed our stay and will go back again.
Melissa
We had a very nice stay. Just one night but will come back again. Very cute and inviting hotel and outdoor space.
Jason
I don’t usually do motels but this one exceeded my expectations. The grounds were lovely, the room had a balcony with a nice view, the room was clean, the beds were very comfortable and the shower worked very well. The only thing that was somewhat disappointing was the breakfast.
Louise
Room was large & clean, with table & chairs & a coffee/food prep area. There was space for setting two open suitcases, a good-sized bathroom & a balcony with two chairs. Hot tub & pool were nice, and breakfast was good. Some prior comments said there wasn't much for breakfast but there were a lot of choices when we stayed, a welcome surprise. Only thing missing was a plug for the tub when I wanted to take a bath. Location good, the building at back has less road noise.
Kathleen
Our stay was great! Just a one night stay in St. Helena. El Bonita is a lovely place to stay - simple, clean, great location, and friendly staff many amenities for a small motel. We love staying here!
Ralph
Great place in an easy way to get to wherever your going in Napa area. It’s just a charming place to stay at and that’s why we keep coming back ❤️🙌
JoAnthony
Clean and pretty large room, and the price is expensive but very reasonable for summer season in St. Helena, where most places are in the $600-800 range, and this one almost half. Liked that it wasn’t “corporate”. The grounds are kept pretty nice. Also liked that it was pet friendly… easy a nice places to walk your pup around the hotel too. Peaceful spot overall and literally next to some of the world’s best restaurants and vineyards.
James

Raj
Simple, but convenient, breakast. Grounds are well maintained.
Norma Jean
Great location but lots of traffic noise. This motel is very basic in terms of amenities. You even have to check out the iron at front desk. More of a drive-up motel than a hotel. Rooms are basic and
Standard rooms are very small. We had a
Double bed and still tight quarters. Towels
are thin. Nothing special, but it is a
motel. Set your expectations as that.

Scott
The room was clean and bright. The bed was comfortable. The shoes was a bit small, but soaps and shampoos were readily accessible.
Joe
Fast efficient check in, nice grounds, convenient for my business, that why I keep coming back
Katherine
A little scratching on some doors and walls but this motel was so charming! Extremely clean and well maintained. Breakfast in the mornings made things so easy. The family suite was perfect for us
SHERYL
We did not stay for breakfast. It started too late at 7:30. Otherwise, it was a perfectly close location to our wedding so we did not have to drive far at all.
The bedspread was super heavy though.

Danielle
WE DID NOT USE THE PROPERTIES POOL, HOT TUB OR SAUNA BUT THEY LOOKED VERY INVITING
Zoe Ann
Hot tub was great
Jason
Great deal considering how expensive the valley is. The room was simple but clean and good. The bummer was breakfast. No knife to cut bagels no cream cheese. Very limited options.
Danny
Extremely comfortable room with a small seating area including a coffee station, fridge and microwave for small meals and snacks. The tasteful decor was mid century modern with quality bedding and towels and a great bathroom. A continental breakfast was included with fresh fruits, croissants, cereals and yogurt. There is a wonderful pool and hot tub for relaxing. The location is perfect, right on 29 and near restaurants, shopping and of course the wineries. El Bonita is an unexpected jewel and a great value. We highly recommend it!
Amy
Wonderful gem of a property! Perfect location, clean, updated and comfortable rooms. Lovely pool.
James
The rooms by the pool are small but comfortable. Love this place. Can’t wait to come back.
Richard
Toilet stopped flushing. It was fixed within a few minutes of reporting.
David
The room was a nice surprise. The location had everything one could want regarding amenities. The breakfast was limited but still ok. I would stay there again.
Alfredo
Great location for wine tasting
Tina
This is our first time at the El Bonita. I would probably stay again. The location is central to all of the places we wanted to visit. The property and rooms were clean, which is the first priority. I was disappointed with the breakfast offerings, as there were hardly any breakfast offerings. We went down twice and left with only a banana, the only banana. I wasn't expecting a full breakfast, but even some hard-boiled eggs in the fridge would have been great. My other issue was that the patio door didn't have a working lock. The screen on our friend's patio door was broken and off the tracks.
None of these were deal breakers, but there are many options in Napa.

Christian
Clean room as i walk in and as every other day I requested service
Tae
We were pleasantly surprised as the “motel” vibe from the sign made us a bit nervous. Had a nice stay and would stay here again!
Grace
Room was clean and updated, and breakfast was very good. Location was awesome - walking distance to multiple vineyards and close to the downtown. Highly recommend staying here!
Eugene
We always stay here when we visit. This is a central location to all the wineries. The first night, we were given the wrong room and had to move the next day. Mitchell took care of us and immediately comped us for that night. The room was clean. My only complaint is wish more towels were provided.
After a long day, it is fun to sit by the fire and meet other people and share the winery experiences.

Exceeded expectations! The property is beautiful and the rooms are very large, quiet and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!
brian
Good selection of beverages and breakfast options! Pool is really nice. Love this motel for 30 years!!
Marilyn
Room was perfect for overnight stay. I would have liked to see more breakfast options. Hot tub and pool was fun.
Cynthia
This is a refurbished motel. The rooms are updated with nicer fixtures in the bathroom and color schemes, but very small. Pedestal sink in the bathroom, no counter. Only room in the bathroom for 1 person at a time and you could probably stand in 1 place and touch all 4 walls.
Bed was ok, not great. Only a full size for 2 people is tight. 2 thin pillows were not enough.
There is a pool and sauna. We did not use them but they looked ok. There are a couple of places outside to sit around fire pits.
We skipped breakfast as it was quite sparse. Vending machine was full, but non-working.
Very busy road out front with lots of traffic coming in/out of Napa. Even though it wasn’t a great hotel, it was still the best value for the money. Probably wouldn’t stay again if there was a comparably priced option.

The management was friendly and the newly renovated waa clean We stayed there for an early hospital appt. The bed was alittle too high for my 95 year old mom. The beds were comfortable.

Motel for sure. Old but clean and comfortable. Nice staff. Pool and hot tub were nice. Breakfast was very basic. Muffins and fruit. Coffee

Beautiful property! We had a garden room and it was quieter than the ones facing the road. We loved the fire pit and the location. We could walk to wineries and restaurants. Would definitely come back!

The sauna, pool, and hot tub were amazing. We loved the added amenities. Breakfast was simple, cereal, fruit, yogurt, and pastries. The room was clean and convenient, however it would be nice to have a safe, hair dryer, and iron in your room.

Great place to stay. Reasonable rates, clean tidy rooms, nice pool,sauna and hot tub. My feeling is I would rather spend my money seeing and experiencing the area I'm visiting. Basically I'm using a hotel to sleep shower and change. I don't need to spend $700 a night for amenities I'm not going to use. I came to Napa to see Napa, not a hotel! The El Bonita fit my bill perfectly!! Highly recommended!

We stayed in a room with multiple beds, which worked out great for us. We especially loved the balcony—it was a nice bonus. The sound insulation between rooms was impressive too; we didn’t hear the neighboring occupants at all. The hot tub was at the perfect temperature, and my little kids really enjoyed it at night.
The only downside was the breakfast selection. They offered cereal, oatmeal packets, fruit, some pastries, and yogurt. We came down around 9:30am, and there were barely any pastries left, even though breakfast is served until 10:30.

The Motel was cute and clean. The check in was easy and the staff was very friendly. The continental breakfast was fresh and good.

No frills place but things are clean and well maintained. Our room had a mini fridge, microwave and sink, which was nice. Couldn't get the cast option to work on the TV. Breakfast was also very minimal, no eggs or hot food besides oatmeal.

Fast check in, nice place. My first choice when visiting the area
