    room options
    outdoor charm
    cleanliness issues

    Plenty of room options for larger families, including adjoining rooms with two bathrooms. The exterior adds charm, making the walk through the courtyard enjoyable.

    Carpeting throughout the hotel looked filthy, especially in the hallways and rooms. The presence of an unpleasant smell wafted through, reminiscent of smoke. The bathroom showed neglect with moldy grout and a leaking faucet, and the pool area left much to be desired as the water appeared green and cloudy. Noise from traffic was constant, making it hard to relax. Stains on the sheets and outdated fixtures were also concerning, making the stay feel less than comfortable.

    Just a proper fit for a quick layover in Sonora with incredible value for money. The balcony on the second floor was a nice touch. Make sure to check the water pressure in your shower.

    historic charm
    great location
    beautiful lobby
    musty carpet
    unclean floors

    The location is fantastic for exploring downtown. The lobby has a beautiful historic charm, making it a nice place to relax. However, the room was a bit musty, and the carpets could definitely use a thorough cleaning. Despite this, it was convenient for visiting vineyards and nearby attractions, which made our trip worthwhile.

    limited seating

    The Historic Sonora Inn was filled with charming Victorian details, making my stay feel like stepping back in time. The accessibility was quite good for seniors, with easy navigation through the beautifully decorated common areas.

    More comfortable seating in common areas.

    Charming Getaway with Vintage Vibes!

    After a rainy camping trip, we discovered this charming spot by chance. The beautifully renovated room offered a cozy haven. Enjoyed a delightful breakfast at the cafe downstairs—don’t miss the local pastries! Staff were friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this delightful escape for a peaceful retreat!

    Charming historic atmosphere with great service

    My stay was delightful, particularly due to the charming vintage decor that really made me feel like I was stepping back in time. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making check-in a breeze and always ready to assist. Although the heating system wasn’t as effective as I hoped, the overall character of the place more than made up for it.
