The staff was amazing & super sweet. Mainly interacted with Davina & she was so kind & friendly. So easy to communicate with. Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Looks recently remodeled. Pool, although older, water was clean & clear & not super strong chemical smell. A nice little touch was every evening they offered a smores kit which we loved! Breakfast was basic hotel breakfast but still good to have to not have to worry about finding a place. Perfect location if you to walk to restaurants or travel to other local towns. Over all loved the place & will stay again.

Cons, Water pressure in the shower is really low. Did more of a rinse than shower. Would recommend bringing own toiletries as the ones they provide is so drying. Elevator is small. Only big enough for a couple with luggage. Windows are old so if you are facing main street, noise might be loud for some people.

The room was small and, with a king bed, had barely any space around it. Room was not clean - dust and hair on the floor and in the tub, stains on the blanket on the bed. The inn has old plumbing - low pressure in the shower. The window mounted AC struggled to keep the room cold. The included breakfast was an assortment of packaged items and not a cooked breakfast.
On the plus side, the staff was very helpful and the inn is on the main street so you can walk to coffee shops, restaurants and stores.

The first room that we were given, the shower had dark moldy stains around the base rim and a window that looked upon an inner wall. It was claustrophobic and did not have any ports in th wall sockets for phone charging. Upon bringing this to the staff's attention, we were given a different room. Our new room assignment was better (it did have charging ports in one of the wall sockets, but the when we tried to raise the window, it hung crookedly and the inside frame was absolutely filthy.

*I write this review as someone who travels for work, staying in up to 12 hotels per month, both domestically and overseas*: Despite having lived in Sonora, I had never stayed at the Sonora Inn until March of 2026. All these years, I had (falsely) assumed that being such a Sonora landmark, it would be at least satisfactory, if not exemplary. I was honestly shocked. Yes, we \"get\" the old-timey, quirky, Gold-rush era charm...but the rooms were \"motel by the airport\"-quality in every respect...including rickety furniture, cheap bedding, an open \"closet\" (just a rod, actually) and a bizarre, very dangerously designed bathroom, with a giant step up to the tub/toilet, then tub walls that came up to past the knees. Anyone with mobility issues would have been out of luck. There are also zero horizontal surfaces on which to place toiletries in the bathroom--I literally had to bring the lone chair from the room into the tiny bathroom to have somewhere to set things. When you have to rearrange a hotel room or bathroom to make it marginally functional...there's a serious problem. The cherry on top was, while trying to sleep in a bit the next morning, the front desk staff called my room and woke me up to ask if I had requested an iron. I had not...and then I couldn't get back to sleep. Also, beware that inside the rooms facing the street, you'll hear every vehicle that passes, stops at the stoplight, and then accelerates. My stay was underwhelming, to say the very least.

Stayed in a room 314 next to the road. It was very loud starting at 5am motorcycles, buses, trucks all traveling down the same road to work. It t was also very bright. There was no blow dryer or shampoo, the water temperature was very touchy. Bed was comfortable and it was a convenient spot in town and not go explore the mountain forties near by. I would not stay longer than a night.

I stayed in room 244, they called it the dungeon. It was super loud next to an exit door and there was utility staff at 6:30am walking around exiting and you can hear everything so loudly. Also, you need to take stairs to get to this room. I have a bad back and had to carry my luggage down sets of stairs. I should have been offered a room where I didn’t have to use physical stairs to carry my luggage or they should have offered bell service to carry it. There were plenty of rooms on the 2nd floor that didn’t have to use stairs to get to. The TV in the room was keyed up with scratches. The hot water took a solid 15 minutes before it got warm. Cracks in the tile of the shower. Only positive was the breakfast in the morning and the person at the front desk was friendly, but really should have given me a room where I didn’t have to carry my luggage up and down stairs.

The room was clean and some of the staff were very nice. The sink in our room didn’t drain and this appeared to be a known problem when talking to maintenance. No other room available and after contacting management, there has been no response to my inconvenience.
If it wasn’t for this issue, I would rate the facility much better.

Horrible experience. I do not recommend it. Parking lot is at another hotel. Bugs all over the bathroom floor, toilet fitted underneath the sink, door opening very tiny. I dont know how this hotel passed a basic inspection. We had to take elevator to 2nd floor, walk down corridor and take stairs down to our room. The stair well was dark since there is no lighting. Both windows were broken. Main window slams down if open it. Bathroom window wont close, so you shower and use bathroom with open window. I complained to front desk about how dissatisfied we were, but their excuse for everything is that its historic. There is nothing historic to this decrepit \"hotel\".

The property is very nice and the staff welcoming. The bed was comfortable. It IS an historic property so some things are not modern. It has a small fridge and a keurig type coffee pot but no microwave. The bathroom has very little shelf space. Our room faced the main street so there was traffic noise but it was mostly quiet after the businesses closed. The breakfast provided was basically a carb-fest with toast, waffles, muffins, etc so diabetics and keto folks be aware and plan ahead. The coffee was good. It has an elevator but some of the doors and layout is smallish so people with walkers, wheelchairs and service animals be aware. We didnt ask for an accessible room so those are probably better.

Staff was super Amazing!! Hotel is historic so things are not updated... but beds were comfortable, water was hot enough for shower. Things were creeky and dated -part of the charm. Traffic on the main street is definitely noticeable. Little easy continental breakfast. Location was Amazing ... lots of little shops. For being an antique hotel.. things were decently clean. Second story pool was cool with nice patio seating.

Stay wasnt good. Wanted a get away with my girl and they stuck me in a crap room. Not the romantic getaway i thought. The shower i could barely turn around in. Taking a crap, my whole leg was forced to be against the tile wall. The door had so much space in the cracks that the hallway light shined like the sun into the room at night. Paid so much money for a room that wasnt even as good as a motel 6 room. It sucked. No place for dogs to go to crap either. Most people just let their dog crap on the sidewalks. Sad. But the staff was friendly. Thats the only good thing about this historic place.

I was not expecting to be put in a room with no window to the outside. Also, the amenities in the room were quite spartan. A single bar of soap for both the sink and the shower. Two thin pillows for a double bed. For the price I suppose it’s adequate. But had I known, I would’ve sprung for a better room type.

The rooms are decent. Small, but decent. HVAC for the room is a window heater/air conditioner. It worked well, but noisy. Shower is old fashioned 2 handle to control temp. Because of this it is extremely difficult to take a shower without vacillating between scorching hot and ice cold. If you get it right... wash quick! :-) The I took a star off comfort because the bed covers they use were awful and kept coming off and you end up sleeping on the mattress waterproof cover which looked dirty. Only two pillows per bed. Would like to have seen 4. They own the hotel behind them, so you park in their lot. Sonora Inn has no parking lot itself. Never had any problems parking even on a holiday weekend. Breakfast was ok. They ran out of a lot of what should have been out. The staff is excellent and very friendly!

This was an ok hotel. I was looking forward to a stay at a historic hotel but it really was like 1880s and not in a good way. The bed felt it was made of cardboard and we couldn’t find the thermostat until the morning so the room was freezing all night. Also, too small. The hall ways, the way into the room, space around the beds. All of it you could call “cozy” but I call it small

Not rustic charm, truth is maintenance just not performed. Windows broken (won't start open and won't completely shut). Bathroom sink water faucet and shower run (won't shut off) and diversion valve for shower broken so more water flows to tub than shower head. Tub and sink old and stained, carpet worn, towels and sheets are well beyond their service life. \"Upgraded City View\" room is on the street with windows that don't seal making the noise defining - and there's no \"view\" because the windows are so dirty you don't need to use the drapes for privacy.
Overall, a bargain $50 motel chain provides a similar experience.
One positive point, staff very polite.

Walls are thin, we heard neighbors slamming drawers all night and children slamming doors/running down the hallways loudly while trying to sleep. The fridge in the room froze all our food, including baby’s milk. Overall just not a pleasant experience.

The facility itself was nice; clean, updated and comfortable. Our room was right next to what is probably the busiest intersection in Sonora. So, it was louder in the room than usual. The great part is that the AC unit was kind of loud so it drowned out the traffic noise. So,…there’s that. They have a real parking issue. They share a very small parking lot with a sister facility next door. It is not enough for both facilities. We didn’t want to move our car once we got a spot. The car spaces are incredibly narrow. The staff was very nice and accommodating. We received 10% off coupons for 3 places to eat at check in. We ate at wonderful Mexican restaurant just one block north that was absolutely awesome. This facility is centrally located to do other fun things around like Colombia State park, James town and plenty of Goldrush historical sites.

This is an older hotel, it was very clean and we enjoyed our stay very much, but there are some inconveniences because of it being an older building. The parking is across the street from the main hotel, and our room was surprisingly tiny with a king bed, but that is more to let people know, it didn’t bother us. The only actual thing I would have liked to see different was to add a garbage bin to the room or have some larger bins available somewhere in the hotel. One small bin in the bathroom is not enough, especially if you do not otherwise need your room cleaned daily.

This was one of the worst hotel stays I have ever had. I chose the Sonora Inn because in the pictures it looks pretty, classic, well cared for, and the location was great. Problems: 1) It is not well cared for. It is run down with seemingly little care to upkeep. Old, torn flags fly. 2)The building inside is a patchwork of remodels. 3) We were assigned a room that was very hard to get to, up and down stairs and around corners. 4) The bathroom in our room was closet sized and added on inside the room space. It was so small you could hit your head getting off the toilet. 5) The breakfast and breakfast area was so bad, it would have been better had they not had it. A staff person stood by the food to make sure you did not turn the knob on the toaster. There was no place to sit. We gave up and went down the street for coffee and bagel.

Excellent Hotel Stay for a Couple

Highly recommend staying here with its central location in the downtown and nearby hiking and adventure sites. The room is fine for a couple, but somewhat long and narrow. The AC cooled the room well and was not in the bedroom which kept the noise down. Bed was comfortable. Strangely the front desk staff had a pattern of being distant or grumpy, but not that important an issue. Overall, this was a perfect place to stay after a late night concert at Ironstone in Murphys.

Property, which we were told was recently renovated, did not meet the same standards. we had a room with cracked tiles in the shower, holes in the wall where the towel racks had been removed and you had to lift the toilet seat to close the bathroom door. Room was clean and had everything we needed. Maybe my expectations were too much for a “historic” hotel in an old gold rush town.
