My partner and I had just the most wonderful visit at CdV this past weekend to celebrate his birthday. We stayed in the Carriage House, and it was so quiet, beautiful and secluded. The morning breakfasts were delicious and hearty! The staff and chef Carlos were all delightful and accommodating. I highly recommend this place for a special event. It's a bit pricey but very worth it for an important occasion. read more

I'll start by saying that, just as I did, you'll probably be able to get a much better stay in Calistoga in another property for a fraction of the price. Despite property descriptions and their website, I did not witness anything luxury about this place, apart from the diner. I was at the property for only a couple of hours but that was more than enough. -Photos are a bit deceiving - everything in real life is a lot smaller, especially the pool and bathrooms. I sat down on the toilet and my knees were bumping against the bathroom door. Pool size was not fit for the amount of guests the property can accommodate and looks twice as big in the photos. -No sound isolation whatsoever. You can hear people sneeze/talk/get changed in the rooms next to yours, no sense of privacy whatsoever. To add to this disaster, each room is operated by a PIN code rather than a key. In our case, rather than showing or handing us the PIN, the host just said the PIN out loud for us to try out from the hallway - the implication being that other people probably heard it and our room was essentially unlocked for everybody. I had more privacy when I lived in student halls at uni than at this ''luxury'' chateau. -I had a query about our reservation where we initially wanted to stay an extra night at the property, however, it was near impossible to get hold of the property - 3 contact numbers, 2 email addresses and Booking messaging system later, we finally received a 1-sentence response via Booking messenger with the property completely misunderstanding our request and providing the wrong advice which completely paralysed our options when it came to our time in Napa valley. Their attempt to remedy the situation was a bottle of wine - which we explained we're unlikely to be able to accept as we're due to catch a flight back and our luggage was already full. No other offers or solutions to rectify the poor customer experience. Overall, not worth the money, especially considering the service. read more

Except for the staff were very gracious, staying at Chateau de Vie was the worst experience Ive had for the following reasons: 1) Check in was a mess; besides a friendly staff member who let us in, no one was there to help with check in. I called the hotel website number and sent an email about early checkin multiple times and was ignored. 2). The manager was rude to us; we were not given any notice that breakfast ended at 1030 and we arrived downstairs around 1040 to have nothing to eat. For a "bed and breakfast" that boasts it has a lovely "complimentary breakfast when you are ready to wake up," I found that this part of the experience was most disappointing. 3). The power and water went out the Sunday we were there; again, we were not given any notice. When I contacted the manager about breakfast and the power outage they were defensive and did not seem to care. We are not going back; it was a very unfortunate experience. read more

My husband surprised me with a trip to Napa Valley for a birthday weekend getaway. We stayed at Chateau De Vie in Calistoga. We loved our time there. Our host, Nelva, was amazing! She was so warm and authentic, her breakfasts were amazing, definitely left a lasting memory. I came home and the next weekend recreated her poached eggs over prosciutto and asparagus topped with pesto, amazing! The grounds were breathtaking. The town was is very enchanting, looking forward to returning. read more

Chateau de Vie - Bed & Breakfast Near Me - Calistoga, California

I am seriously appalled at this bed and breakfast! I was so looking forward to staying here but I will not be. I took a look at the site and just had some general questions because it seems that a lot of B&Bs have changed things since the pandemic. For example many no longer serve breakfast but instead give you a voucher to a local restaurant. The evening wine is no longer offered or just a box of cheese and wine bottle. I called in to ask those questions and from the beginning the person who answered was extremely rude. I am assuming he is the owner as he he asked if I had visited the website. I said yes but that I just had some basic questions still. I tried asking about the breakfast and right away he said well its all on the site and didn't really give me a chance to ask my real question. And the he says well have you ever stayed at a bed n breakfast or in Napa Valley (which is so condescending) and I said yes many times in Napa but not Calistoga. He goes "well it's all the same. I am confused as to what you are asking". And then I tried to ask about the wine service in the evening and again he asked if I have ever been to a B&B. Which is so unbelievably rude. He didn't even let me speak before just staying it's all on the site and going on about how it's been done the same way for 25 years but different than other B&Bs (which is why I was asking). Then he had the audacity to say "well I am confused as to what you are asking, it's written in plain English". As soon as he said that I said "ok thanks" and hung up. Unbelievable! I have never had such a terrible experience like that before. I think he assumed I was an uneducated, not well traveled person. I have been to Jamaica, New York, Napa, Sonoma, Mexico and so many other US states and never been treated like that. So disappointed because I was deciding between this B&B and another and will not be staying here. And will definitely tell my friends and family to never stay here either. Thought I would add in I called two other B&Bs and both were fabulous and answered all of my questions. One even acknowledged that there is some misinformation about what they offer out in social media or other booking sites. What they used to offer pre-pandemic has changed but not all sites reflect that. Each one does things slightly different but both sound like great options. Will definitely recommend them. read more

My wife and I had an incredibly positive experience on her birthday. We were treated really well by the entire staff at Chateau de Vie, and enjoyed every minute of our stay. Breakfast was perfect, both the food and the friendly service. And the location was perfect for exploring the area -- including the Old Faithful Geyser, the vineyards and wineries, the petrified forest, and the spas in Calistoga. We'll definitely return to CDV in the future. In the meantime, we'll appreciate this sublime memory. Thank you! read more

Chateau de Vie - View looking east from our room at Chateau de Vie. - Bed & Breakfast Near Me - Calistoga, California

High marks for the Chateau de Vie! Located in Napa Valley adjacent to numerous wine tasting destinations, personable owners Felipe and Peter, roll out the hospitality red carpet at this extremely charming boutique, bed and breakfast. Chef Felipe's culinary skills are on display every morning with a top notch breakfast on par with, and often surpassing, the meals enjoyed at nearby highly acclaimed restaurants. The grounds are beautiful and well kept. I particularly enjoyed the privacy of our carriage house, nestled among the vines which the owners/vintners use to produce award winning Cabernet Sauvignon. I also relished having the lap pool to myself in the early afternoon. This is definitely one of the best bed and breakfast destinations in Napa. I would definitely return. read more

It was a great quite place to kick off our 20th. The staff was amazing! I liked how there was access to the main house but our room was in a private villa. read more

I left Chateau de Vie wondering to myself if its owners Felipe and Peter even bother going on holiday elsewhere as their property feels like heaven on earth. The grounds are simply magnificent, and the food they prepared for us was better than of any other place we dined at in the area. Chateau de Vie has anything and everything you'd desire in a perfect vacation. From the tastefully decorated living/reading room, complete with diverse books, magazines, and DVDs --as well as inviting fireplace and cozy seating, to the well-maintained pool area with several lounge chairs, restful spaces abound. My husband and I spent the past weekend at Chateau de Vie with eight of our friends. Our group of 10 rented out the entire property which only added to our enjoyment. Felipe and Peter could not have been more hospitable, and they were so helpful in working with us prior to arrival to create a Saturday itinerary entailing winery visits and a delightful picnic lunch. We had a sweetly memorable time and already look forward to a return visit. Thank you, Felipe and Peter, for such an enchanting stay! read more

Literally the vines were 10 feet away from our french doors as seen in the picture uploaded....epic! The bed was super comfortable and the room spotless.

If I could give Chateau de Vie 10 stars I would. Oh how I miss it. My husband and I stayed here for our 5 year wedding anniversary the end of July 2021 per recommendation of our friends, it did not disappoint at all. Peter & Felipe made us feel right at home. We have not felt so welcome and relaxed in so long. The breakfasts on the back patio overlooking the vineyards were amazing. My husband and I also enjoy running. We enjoyed running through the vineyard each morning...such surreal memories we will never forget. Thank you Felipe & Peter for giving us an outstanding week to cherish we cannot wait to come back! read more

This place a hidden gem in Calistoga. Conveniently located a few minutes north of downtown Calistoga it is a perfect place where to sit back and relax after a day of wine tasting and sightseeing. The staff is extremely attentive and very respectful of your privacy. Wake up to an amazing homemade breakfast and a great cup of coffee. The swimming pool is perfect if you were to stay during the warmer months. Go into town pick up some cheese and bread and sit alongside the pool area. What else can I say about this hidden gem? The 5 star review ahould say it all. read more

If I could give this place 6 stars I would! It's beautiful, peaceful, and the breakfast is to die for. Peter and Phillip bend over backwards to make sure you are happy and have a memorable experience. Did I mention it's on a vineyard and their wine is some of the best I had in Napa. I proposed here and Peter arranged everything for me and made it perfect! If you are on a strict budget there are hotels in the area, but if you want something to remember, kick back and relax and enjoy the company, consider the CDV. read more

My fiancé (now husband) and I got married on 9/16/16 at chateau de vie. It was the most magical experience we've ever had. We couldn't have chosen a better place to stay and get married. This is more like a 5 star boutique hotel. We've stayed at many 5 star hotels around the world and chateau de Vie is the one we would want to return to year after year. We stayed at the carriage house, which opens up to the winery and the view is just breathtaking. It's in a private area and detached from the main house. Inside is clean, modern, and we loved sitting on the deck and just going for walks through the winery at dawn and sundown. We woke up every morning to coffee already left outside our door. Then at 9am we had the most delicious gourmet breakfast made by top chef Philip outside our room facing the winery. There were wine and cheese in the afternoon and you can just sit on the patio and sip on a glass of chateau de vie Cabernet and listen to the sound of fountain in the back area of the house. Philip and Peter were the most gracious, kind, amazing hosts and made our stay an unforgettable experience. We loved chateau de vie so much we already made reservations for 2017 to go back. Thank you Philip and Peter and we will be coming back to chateau de Vie every September for our anniversary! Behshad and Marjan, married at chateau de Vie 9/16/16 read more

Where or more importantly how do I begin to describe this absolutely amazing B&B in Calistoga which is located in the Northern region of Napa Valley, CA. My wife, myself & another couple visited in December of 2015 right after Christmas so it was pretty cold, but the four of us didn't care, we were on a mission that week, a drinking mission! We did really good too, LOL! The minute we walked in we were greeted by Phillipe & Peter in their warm, cozy living room with a nice warm fireplace that was a great start to our stay. Our hosts were so gracious to help, got us settled right away & immediately Phillipe got us a nice tray of cheese, crackers, grapes, & of course an excellent bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon to go with it. We didn't spend much time at the B&B that is situated in the middle of a beautiful vineyard as the produce their own line of wines, which are phenomenal by the way because we were out roaming around most of the week. However when we were there it was really nice & our hosts went out of their way to make sure our accommodations were perfect! The best part of our stay is that Phillipe is an amazing chef & cooked us some of the best breakfast meals I've ever had anywhere, period! He is an outstanding chef & we are all going to definitely come back during harvest season when the climate is much warmer to truly enjoy this exquisite home! Thank you both very much for your hospitality & outstanding establishment, you are truly the closest to perfection in my opinion! Overall Rating: A++++ read more

Amazing. Absolutely recommend this B&B! Proposed to my GF on NYE and spent the day tasting in Napa to celebrate and ended our day at Chateau De Vie. The host welcomed us and treated us warmly. Before know about the proposal we were upgraded to a room with a better view of Mt St Helena. He recommended an amazing restaurant for dinner. The beds were soft and comfortable and the food was simply delicious. Will absolutely be coming back in the near future. read more

Wow! Just wow! My boyfriend and I spent the evening here while attending an event at one of the local wineries. Everything at CDV is impeccable and the attention to detail is outstanding! We stayed in the carriage house which had beautiful vineyard views and was so private and quiet. It was also lovely and tastefully decorated and included a cozy fireplace. From the moment we arrived the service was outstanding, warm, friendly, and inviting. We were served a yummy wine and cheese welcome snack and breakfast was beyond our expectations. By far one of the nicest bed & breakfast experiences we have had! We can't say enough good things about our experience here!! Perfect for a romantic evening away!! read more

This is my second time staying at this property. My wife and I stayed here a year ago and we were so eager to come back and stay again. I was worried that the second time around would not be as good, but I was wrong. Peter and phillipe did a fabulous job attending to every detail. The breakfast they serve is a world-class. They even remembered that we adhere to the gluten-free diet and made us breakfast to accommodate us every day. Don't forget the wine and cheese in the afternoon and full-time concierge level service for all of your needs including dining and other reservations. Best of all the property is absolutely gorgeous, immaculately maintained, and perfectly located. Add to that the guys who run this place really are class acts and need to be commended on running such a fine operation. If I could leave any tip for you it is plan ahead and secure the Carriagehouse. If you want to little bit of privacy in the bed-and-breakfast scene, this is the way to go for sure. Imagine coffee on your private terrace in a vineyard. A real Vineyard that is, and we even have a bottle of wine to prove it! Go, you wont be sorry you did read more

Outstanding!! 6 stars! Thank you Peter, Felipe, Eddie. Amazing staff, amazing facility, amazing service. I can't say enough great things about this special place in calistoga. Took my girl on a 3 day weekend get away. If you are looking for a beautiful bed n breakfast, located on a gorgeous vineyard, away from traffic, city lights, and tourists, you have to stay here. I didn't want to write a review because they might become more popular and charge more per night, which I would gladly pay. You will not find another BnB with gourmet breakfast coffee and OJ every morning. At your own time, and not specific hours of the day. Cheese platters and wine in the evenings. Do yourself a favor, if you are looking to impress your hina, or out with fam, the girls, whatever..you want to visit napa? Book here. I'll give you your money back if you aren't sarisfied.. It's that great. read more

What an amazing piece of real estate managed by Peter and Phillip. The Chateau de Vie is located in a prime location near Calistoga, but on the way to Alexander Valley. Peter and Phillip made this visit so amazing. They are so accommodating and gracious, offering their house wines all day and night for free, prepping a cheese platter for us at a moments notice (free) and giving helpful hints about the town for dinner (they charged $10 dollars for this. lol). We even purchased a bottle of their Chateau de Vie Cabernet (not free). On a serious note, this property is tremendous! You can be swept away on a romantic getaway, or you can take over the house with a group of friends. The architecture and landscaping are great. The rooms open up to a nice vineyard in the backyard. A nice sized deck provides a tranquil setting for drinking vino and staring off in the distance at endless grapevines. Take a nice stroll among the grapes in the evening with a bottle and a blanket. There is a hot tub onsite, a great breakfast included and an endless library of interesting reads. I highly recommend this bed & breakfast. read more

More of a luxurious stay with great friends than B&B. Five-star service, five-star food, & five-star accommodations/grounds. I'd give it ten stars if I could! This is THE perfect place to stay when visiting Napa Valley; this place far exceeded every one of my expectations! Where to begin? The Chateau is this beautiful home with gorgeous ivy growing all over it. It just oozes charm at every corner. There is no detail left behind or disregarded. From the usual B&B guest books, the CDV water bottle gifted to you, the cookbooks carefully sitting in their dining area, the many magazines & newspapers all available for you, the perfect 'outdoor' wine glasses from govino to enjoy the daily free wine from 3-7pm, the outdoor seating area framed for you to fully enjoy their vineyard and mountain views, the pool to cool off in when it gets too warm, to the beautifully manicured gardens and grounds. It's such a beautiful house that feels like home. And their deck out back was so cozy with breathtaking views of vineyards and mountains. It was wonderful having our breakfast out there every morning. The owners, Peter & Phillip, are warm, friendly, accommodating, and BEYOND helpful! Phillip was essentially being my travel guide, helping me with winery & restaurant reservations and suggestions BEFORE we even arrived. He is extremely helpful! And you get the feeling that he thoroughly enjoys helping you. That he WANTS to help you enjoy your time. That he ENJOYS being there for any need you may have. I've worked in the service industry and it can be hard. I always feel bad asking people for too much, especially when I can figure it out for myself. But Phillip is so kind, he insists on helping you. So thank you Phillip, thank you for your patience and help from the minute we booked our stay to the minute we had to leave your beautiful chateau. Peter was also extremely helpful and friendly! We were going to have a picnic, so he got forks & knives (the real stuff, not plastic), napkins, even offered a cooler for any wine we may have. He gave us maps and outlined an itinerary based on what we said we may want to do that day. And every afternoon, after a day of wine tasting & eating, Peter & Phillip would ask about our day, genuinely listening to our thoughts and feedback. How refreshing. Staying here and being around them and listening to them talk to other guests, you can tell they really enjoy what they do. Which makes visiting with them and staying here all the more enjoyable. It's infectious in the best possible way. The food; my goodness the food is unbelievably amazing. I don't know if Phillip is a chef or he just has a talent with food, but every breakfast was simply amazing. Beautiful creations of fresh pastries and breakfasts. It was all VERY GOURMET! I'm a foodie (like the kind that enjoys good food, not the kind that knows every chef), and this food was NOT your typical B&B food. It was as if we were dining in a gourmet restaurant every morning. But in the comfort of their beautiful chateau, sitting on their beautiful deck, enjoying their beautiful views. And we can't forget Phillip's 'barista' Peter; he makes one mean cappuccino! We couldn't get enough, we'd order two every morning! We're from Seattle, so we're a bit of coffee snobs, but his cappuccinos were divine. It was the perfect way to start each morning; a breakfast of pampering. We wished they could cook us every meal! Their breakfasts were better than most the meals in these 'high-end' restaurants nearby!! Also, there's fresh cheese & fruit plates personally provided in the afternoons; ahhh! :) We had only one option for the room, so we had the room that had a bathroom across the hall. It was a bit of a pain, but P&P provided plush robes that helped make the trek across the hall workable. Next time, I'm booking my stay MUCH earlier to get a in-room bath. The bed was actually really comfortable and the pillows were comfy and fluffy. Perfect! We actually got a good night's sleep, whereas many times in B&B's and even hotels you don't feel comfortable. The luxury doesn't end there; they even have L'Occitane bath products! My husband now only wants to use L'Occitane shampoo and conditioner! ;) I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend anyone visiting to stay here! There REALLY is no other comparison! Unless you're thinking of staying in a comparable hotel, but then you'd end up spending $500+/night - and that's just crazy! If I have one gripe, it'd be that I felt we couldn't NOT have breakfast and that we didn't have the freedom to skip out if we were tired. But that just goes to show that P&P are so attentive! What more can you ask for?! P&P totally spoiled us. I don't think I can stay at another B&B, ever. I'm not sure I even want to stay at another hotel because it just won't be the same as staying here. It's really the best and blend of staying at a luxury hotel, a B&B, and staying with friends. It's like getting pampered at your friends' luxury estate! read more

I took a trip to the Chateau de Vie with my boyfriend and just LOVED my stay there. The B&B is beautiful and is not one of those places with big floral patterns everywhere -- but it updated and tasteful. I also loved our room which looked right out onto the vineyard. The vineyard was green, the sun rise was yellow, and the St. Helena mountains in the background looked purple and it was so beautiful. Also, their breakfast is included and was fantastic! The owners have a French Laundry signed menu on the wall, so you know the guy is a real foodie. We had a spinach, mushroom, and red pepper fritatta with a homemade yogurt and oatmeal side. It was all very tasty and good. :) read more

The boyfriend and I just returned from a two-night stay at the Chateau de Vie and it was perfect. It is everything you hope for from a B&B, and more. The decor is modern and tasteful while still being extremely comfortable and inviting. Our room (were were on the third floor) was spacious and perfectly appointed. Usually when you go somewhere, you can pick out things that you would do differently, but not here. Every detail is considered and we lacked for nothing. Breakfast was awesome both days. Phillip is a man who has perfected the poached egg which is quite the feat. Tasty and healthy. Whoever would have thought I would love breakfast without bacon? That's right, no bacon...and I loved it! Phillip and Peter are the perfect hosts. They provide everything you need and do it in a way that makes you feel like you are welcome and a friend they are happy to host. From breakfast to afternoon wine and hors d'ouevres to late-night wine in the hot tub, the experience is relaxing, beautiful and luxurious. Read the book in your room when you get there.

The breakfast was outstanding, especially while eating outside with the vineyards surrounding us. We had the privilege to stay at the King Carriage House Jr Suite located in front of the first row of vines of the vineyard. For wine lovers, it can't get any better. We felt at home and even felt spoiled like royalty. I would also give CDV 6 stars if the rating system can go that high. read more

My wife and I visited Chateau de vie for just one evening last weekend and were extremely pleased. We couldn't get enough of the views out our room windows. The house is not old, built in the 80's and remodeled a few times since already. Our room had a queen bed, full bathroom, a ceiling fan, an ipod alarm clock, an arm chair, and the guys will adjust your bedroom temperature to your preference upon check-in. Coffee carafes and hot water for tea is placed just outside your door by 7:30 in the morning. Complimentary wine was available anytime for self service in the dining room and plastic wine cups were offered for taking out to the pool area. The gardens are beautiful, surrounded by their private two-acre vineyard which provides a limited availability 'house wine' for visitors. If you enjoy running during your vacations, as I do, ask about a suggested route. I had only a half hour to run and was directed on a 3.75 mile run through several neighborhood vineyards. It was absolutely breathtaking to run in the wine valley, with views of the mountains in the near distance. Our only wish is that we would have stayed more days at this location, rather than at different places each night. The owners, Peter and Phillip, provide excellent service to their guests. My wife and I will be back to the area in May of 2012 and hope to find availability at this B&B during our stay. read more
