Most dining is closed in the day. Also the adult pool has children. There is año strict policy. Also some staff were very rude and had no hospitality.

We chose to pay at property and when we checked in we asked them to change the charge card on file. Which was easy. However on the morning of check out not only did they charge the card I had used to reserve the hotel when originally booked, but they also charged the card we gave them at check in. When we tried to resolve it at the front desk we were told they could not see the double charge and that because we booked through a third party. We explained that we did not “pay” through the third party (Expedia) that we asked them to charge a specific card which they did as well as the card on file with Expedia. I am not happy at all and will never book through a third party again. Now I have to wait to see what happens on my bank’s end as my account is negative AND I have prearranged payments hitting my account making it even more negative. I am very upset and frustrated!!!

Thank you for choosing to stay at The Grand Reserve! We are happy to know that you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your return.
We had an overall excellent stay. The check in was easy and helpful. The room was welcoming and very comfortable. We did have one concerning negative experience with the valet who was very hostile and unbelievably rude. We did speak with the concierge regarding that experience. She was very apologetic. But as a significant first encounter , if I were s owner / managet I would definitely pay attention to his behavior and the impact on your guests

Thank you for sharing your direct feedback regarding our late checkout fee of 50 per hour. While we may be able to give some leniency on low occupancy days we unfortunately have to be very strict about our 11AM checkout on such high turnover days with 100% occupancy. We regret that our bringing the fee down for your 2pm checkout didn't make up for the negative experience. We will continue to work diligently to make future stays for all of our guests the best experience possible.
Amazing stay. This was our first time visiting Napa, and we were so glad we chose this hotel. The facilities were impeccable, the staff extremely friendly, and the dining options were delicious. We absolutely loved that there was also an adult only pool. The proximity to vineyards was very convenient. Will definitely stay again in the future!

The hotel is beautiful, clean, and renovated. The staff is disinterested and dismissive. At both check-in and check-out, staff was curt and unhelpful in answering questions. Housekeeping was inconsistent and incomplete. When we shared this feedback at check-out, it was dismissed.

Great one night stay to attend a concert on premises. Spacious room with balcony. Staff was amazing, warm and welcoming. Only exception was a manager who was rather rude when we asked for a one hour later checkout, which wasn’t granted. Hotel staff seemed a bit overstretched but all were courteous and friendly.

Even though the hotel was OK in terms of cleanliness and overall qualities of the facilities, I feel it is overpriced. I had a chance to see a friend's room in the non-Grand Reserve portion of the hotel, and the rooms were fairly comparable except for the size of the bathroom. Was a bigger bathroom worth twice as much in terms of the cost? Nope! I would consider staying here again, but the extra money for the Grand Reserve is not worth it.

Property was good. Not super fancy but was fairly nice. The price you pay is too much, so my expectations were high. Only complaint is the people staying in room next to ours had a barking dog and it wouldn’t shut up. I complained to front desk at midnight and they said it would be handled, which it was not. Beware of this

We had an incredible stay at Grand Reserve. The room was spacious, and the amenities couldn’t be beat. One of the evenings we had the pleasure of watching Belinda Carlisle perform a concert from the comfort of our balcony. The property was conveniently located in close proximity to top wineries in both Sonoma and Napa. We will absolutely be staying here again.

Check in was a circus to say the least. They didn’t have the room we booked. We settled with a two queens room that was near an entrance door and was extremely noisy. We could have moved the second day but our day was fully booked up and didn’t have time to pack our stuff up and check out and store our luggage somewhere and then check in later.
