    Empty pool
    Aly C.

    I rarely leave anything but 5-star reviews, so I hate having to write a negative one--especially because I've always loved Indian Springs. But I also hate spending my hard-earned money to be treated poorly. My mom has been coming here since she was a teenager, and our family has continued the tradition every summer. My husband and I love Hill House so much that when our wedding was canceled during COVID, we even eloped here in 2020. That's why this stay was so disappointing. While relaxing by the pool, my family was eating a small bag of pretzels. Other staff members walked by, checked in on us, and were warm and friendly. Dylan, however, stopped solely to tell us to put the pretzels away. He was unfriendly and condescending; and we later found that he didn't put forth the same effort to tell other people who brought outside snacks. We ordered poolside food and drinks from another, much friendlier server. Unfortunately, Dylan delivered the order and then informed us that our small speaker also wasn't allowed, even though it had been playing quietly the entire time and the pool was nearly empty (see the attached photo). I disagree with the rules here, but there's also a way to enforce policies without making guests feel unwelcome. We weren't disturbing anyone, we were simply trying to enjoy a family vacation. One employee's attitude changed the tone of our day. If you're deciding where to stay, we've had wonderful experiences at the Bungalows of Calistoga across the street, and for a more premium experience try Carneros Resort which has an even better pool, incredible cottages, beautiful views, outstanding service, and Domaine Carneros just across the road for champagne tasting. It's amazing how one interaction can overshadow years of loyalty. And also, management should ensure staff enforce policies with kindness, professionalism, and hospitality--especially when guests are paying premium prices to be there.

    House pool rules which are inconsistent with other guests behaviors, why have no shouting when kids are allowed that's inevitable
    Andrei R.

    We visit Indian Springs Calistoga roughly once a month with our family and generally enjoy the mineral pools and grounds. The posted House Rules are sensible, but enforcement is inconsistent. Pool manager Claire frequently singles us out (phone use today, our daughter with pool noodles, snacks/drinks placement) while other kids build slides out of floats and noodles. She also overlooks shouting, rough play, and other prohibited behaviors. Other staff don't enforce these rules. We support fair rules for everyone's comfort and safety. When applied unevenly by one person, it detracts from the relaxing experience. We hope management retrains the team on consistent enforcement and hospitality so we can continue visiting regularly. Otherwise, we may need to try alternatives like Solage. Thank you for addressing this. -- Andrei R., repeat guest

    We have visited this hotel about 10 times over the last 20 years. It started out very affordable. They have been expanding their facility by adding rooms and a restaurant. It was a wonderful escape, especially during the winter with their Olympic size mineral spring pool. It was/is magical to see the steam rising off the springs and looking up at the stars at night with my daughter. She was a stressed out middle schooler/high school student when we 1st discovered ISR. At the time, it was a little pricey, but something we could afford occasionally. Now, let's just say big buckets of money. My daughter is now a doctor and married, and she recently visited for the holidays. I looked for something special for a relaxing time because of holiday travel and their work lives. I was so lucky to speak to Eli to inquire about a 2 day stay. Out of all our visits I feel this was the friendliest conversation and pretty much booked it because of Eli. She booked at a very busy time my special requests. The rooms were very nice, clean & comfortable. I booked two rooms but did not want them side-by-side. Maybe just a couple of rooms apart but in the same building. Can you believe I had the nerve to ask this during the Christmas season? She not only did not laugh in my face, but she actually booked it perfectly. I have to say this is the first friendly and personal service I've ever received at Indian Springs. It is a very popular place so I will give them that. Thank you Eli for giving my family & I a very wonderful & relaxing memory. Best to you and Happy New year. P.S. They have free bikes on the property, but boy are they weird! I think I might've been nine years old when I've used handlebars like that.

    we were astonished to see blood spots on the comforter. Contacted the manager but the manager Ken replied that this is fresh blood spot. It feels ridiculous and humiliating for this attitude.

    The new adult pool, smaller than the main pool, but charming and quiet. Although I do miss the cabanas the main pool has.

    What we love is we can consistently rely on the same experience year after year, the same high quality of cleanliness, the same down to earth yet professional customer service, the same peaceful, relaxing, calming experience we always have experienced time after time since 2006. In a sense we don't want to share our experience so that we can have Indian Springs all to ourselves, however it's hard to not brag about them. Anyways, we LOVE this place more than anything!!

    My good friend took me here for a spa day to celebrate my birthday and it was amazing from start to finish! When we arrived we were given a quick tour of the women's side and shown the locker room to change into the robes and sandals they provided for us. Now, time for the mud bath! After reading reviews I was a little nervous for this part particularly because people said it can be claustrophobic and you have to be completely naked to do it. So for all my modest girlies, it is OPTIONAL to be naked. We wore our bikinis no problem! However I do recommend wearing a dark color swim suit so the mud doesn't mess it up. Anyways, the mud bath was amaaazingg. It felt like a warm blanket. After that you shower the mud off and are escorted to a hot tub soak for 20 minutes. Here they give you cold water (and always refill it as needed), a pick to get any dirt out from under your nails, and a nice cold towel for your forehead. Next, we were taken to sit in a sauna for around 10 minutes. After the sauna we were taken to the 'blanket wrap' area. You lay on a small comfy bed, they cover you in a blanket, place cold cucumbers and a cold wash cloth on your eyes and you relax there for 15 minutes. This was so nice however it is in the middle of where they are taking guests from the lobby to the mud bath room so it was pretty noisy and hard to relax. We weren't offered any ear plugs either as I've seen some others were. We set up 50min massages right after so it was on to the next from the nap area. This was really a highlight for me. They have a beautiful Buddha pond exclusive to spa guests that is surrounded by chairs to relax in. My massage by Rachel was wonderful! I wish it were longer, she did such a great job. They have the most comfortable massage beds I've ever used. After our massages we got some tea and a blanket and sat by the pond. Very peaceful & relaxing. Finally, we went up to check out the mineral pool. It was the perfect temperature. We were so happy to see they had a small restaurant so we could order some food while we sat by the pool. There was also a separate adults only pool. Cons - - There's no food besides at the pool. The pool pass is $50/day so I'm not sure if you can order food if you don't purchase the pool pass. The spa offers nuts, dried berries, and orange slices. But by the end of our services we were starving for more of a meal. - Bathrooms. There's only one single bathroom on the women's side and if that's occupied then you have to use the only other one on the men's side. Or you can use the ones outside by the Buddha pond. Overall, I would definitely return to Indian Springs Resort! This was a true relaxing spa day that you can't find in many other places in the area.

    Indian Springs Resort is a hidden gem. The service was warm and attentive, the quality was top-tier, and the vibe was calming, luxurious, and perfectly low-key. From the natural hot springs to the serene setting, everything felt like a peaceful escape. I wanted to gatekeep this place... but it's just too beautiful not to share. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the price has gone up quite a bit over the years. It used to be more accessible -- now it's definitely a splurge. That said, for a little peace of mind and relaxation, it was absolutely worth it.

    This was our second time there and it was absolutely stunning! It was also our first time trying their restaurant for dinner and it was perfect!

    Dingy rooms
    Avivi W.

    Not worth it for the money paid to stay here- VERY overpriced for the mediocre experience- for around $700 a night you get a stuffy and small room with views of the dirt, the stairways and hallways were non-existent because it opens from outside directly into your room. It feels like a motel when the price itself should be a 5-star hotel. There's 2 pools- only one of which is hot springs heated, both of which have dirty water, the lockers are not that clean, and the massage therapists are unprofessional- mine hurt my back while massaging and the pain lasted for a week after. Overall VERY overpriced for a motel experience- the place is very dingy and not at all like it looks on photos.

    Coffee and blue skies! The perfect start to the morning.

    I had the pleasure of enjoying an overnight stay at Indian Springs. I stayed in the lodge and the accommodations were very nice. The room was clean, updated and the bed was very comfortable. I enjoyed a deep tissue massage which was really nice. I really enjoyed sitting at the Buddha pond after my massage. My favorite part was the pool. The pool was so refreshing and I really enjoyed lounging in the water. The pool is open until 11pm so a night swim is a must! Just remember to grab your robe from the room so you are not walking back in the cold . This was my first experience at a spa resort and i truly enjoyed myself. There are so many places throughout the property to just sit and be still. This place will have you feeling rested and restored. I will certainly be back!

    We had a girls' spa day with a mud bath and chakra balancing. I started with the chakra balancing. I was given headphones, a warm neck pillow, and an eye mask. It was pleasant and relaxing. Then I was moved to the mud bath. I was somewhat surprised that it was in the same open area with the soaking tubs, and sauna. The lady who helped me was informative and shared a lot of the history of mud baths, which was nice. Then I was asked to shower the mud off before being taken to the tub to soak. I did not get any add-ons, and it was ok. I felt like the minerals from the mud would be enough. After soaking in the tub, I was taken to the sauna for 7 minutes. After that, I was taken to a cool-down, relaxation room where she placed cucumbers on my eyes and covered them with a mask. I was not offered earplugs, like the lady next to me was. It was loud and disruptive when they brought other people to the same area. After that, I spent time at the Buddha Pond, which was lovely. A few things I think need to be fixed. 1) When getting out of the mud bath, you are asked to walk to the shower without asking if you would like coverage. The mud baths, tubs, showers, and sauna are all in one big room. 2) When getting out of the tub, if other people are soaking in the tub, be mindful of standing between the person getting out of the tub and the one soaking. 3) offer everyone the earplugs 4) Please be mindful of when you bring people into the area to keep voices low versus talking regularly without regard to the people there to relax.

    Ask the Community - Indian Springs Resort

    Is the mineral pool available for resort guests, even if they don't do one of the spa packages?

    Yes, free for hotel guests. Day visitors pay for amenities such as mineral pool. Fees are required for just the pool stated in the hotel information page.

    Are the masseuses fully vaccinated against COVID? If some are vaccinated and some are not, is it possible to request a masseuse who is vaccinated?

    No for Covid they mostly aren't - I heard this from a former employee a few months ago. Kind of shocking actually.… 

    Do they offer spa packages? I'm only seeing al la carte treatments but want to be sure.

    At this time each treatment is al la carte.

    What age do you need to be to have spa services?

    18 years old. Thank you Amy for reaching out.

    Is it a 2 night minimum stay or you can stay for one night?

    We stayed on a Sunday night & there is no minimum night stay. If you stay on a Friday or Saturday night, there is a two night minimum stay.

    Can you do couples mud bath with opposite sex?

    No, my friend and her husband had to do their mud baths separately. Their facility is only set up for one same sex group at a time. The building is historic with a larger capacity than for just two people, so that makes sense. It's a fun… 

    Do they accept Apple Pay at snack bar etc?

    How much do you charge to use the pool if you're not staying there?

    $50 dollars per person, and you need to book a massage as well. Pool use is for 10am-6pm for non-hotel staying guests, later (11pm?) for staying guests. It's worth it to stay there and enjoy the facilities till later in the eve!

    Are pool used still warm enough for winter/December?

    Absolutely. Steamy. Plenty warm for use when it's cold.

    Is there a day pass option?

    Day pass is available only as an add on to a spa service.

    Is there a secluded clothing optional area...similar to what you'll find at Solage?

    No, but check out Orr Hot Springs, that’s clothing optional.

    If we purchase a service, is there access to the pool (weekend)?

    Yes, last time I was there you have to get a service at the spa in order to use the pool, which is an additional $25 per person. On weekday you have to purchase a spa service and the pool is waived. That's through my last two experiences.

    Can you reserve cabanas at the pool?

    there are on a first come basis. Never had a problem getting one.

    Are babies allowed in the pool?

    Yes as long as there not alone

We stayed in one of the soaking rooms and it was wonderful. We were provided with towels and salts to use specifically for the soaking tub. The tub was conveniently located in the main room with a view of the large screen TV which also could be pulled out from the wall and angled towards the tub and bed. We were a little confused about how the tv worked since it seemed that other guests were signed in to the streaming platforms, but that was likely user error. Perhaps a little note about logging in to streaming services next to the TV might be useful for others in the future. We were also able to access live channels. The room was clean, and had a microwave and mini fridge for our leftovers after eating out or for small grocery items from CalMart. The location is great and a short walk to downtown Calistoga. We were provided with robes at check in which were useful for the hot tubs and pools. There are two mineral water hot tubs of different temperatures and one large mineral pool for swimming. There are showers and changing rooms available in the pool area as well. They provided bicycles and helmets that we could take to ride during the desk hours. We would definitely stay here again.

    This is a boutique hotel with 33 rooms (I believe) and a few cottages. The main building is a…read more2-story, registered historical landmark. The hotel is over 100 years old and it's maturity is part of its charm. There was some work being performed in a guestroom on the 2nd floor but they worked on it for short periods every day. Love the strategy. There is no insulation on guestroom doors so it's easy to hear conversations and heavy slamming doors. There is no elevator so the 2nd floor doesn't appear to be Accessible. There are rooms on the 1st level however. The jacuzzi was wonderful and hot Tuesday morning but lukewarm on Thursday morning. Front desk staff state every now and then a guest inadvertently turns it off, and did so Wednesday night by pressing the Emergency button (instead of the timer for the jets). Bummer. It took hours for it to reheat. Maybe a sign for the jets could discourage that from happening again. Check In & Staff: Male staff were friendly and helpful - especially Manny!! The hotel does have a luggage cart but it won't help those staying on the 2nd floor since there is no elevator. However 2 of the guys volunteered to follow me outside to the car to retrieve my luggage. Soooo much appreciated! They not only carried them upstairs to my room but came back to carry them again when I relocated to a different room. They wouldn't even except a tip! Thanks guys! My heros. Other staff: The female staff at the front desk wasn't as friendly but maybe she had an off couple days. No eye contact, acknowledgement, or smile. She did engage however when spoken to. All other staff - housekeeping (especially), maintenance, painters, etc., were genuinely friendly and helpful. It made my stay relaxing which was much needed! Thanks again. Breakfast: Staff prepare a daily breakfast tray that's delivered to each room at your preferred time. Breakfast consisted of FRESH and DELICIOUS breads, lemon cake, a tangerine, and a warm pot of mild-blend coffee. Room: Towels were fluffy, soft, good-smelling, and appeared new! The linen and robes were fresh and clean. The room was well furnished and the environment inviting. The bed was on the firm side but was very comfortable. I had to remember not to sit on the edge too long though because the ribbing on the edge of the mattress hurt. There was no bottled water in the room but there was a carafe to be filled with ice/water at the Hydration Station located on the 1st floor. It would have been nice to have a Station upstairs too or bottles of water for upstairs guests. Having a mini fridge and safe in the room was a nice touch. A microwave somewhere for guests (use) would have been nice for reheating leftovers. Window screens would have been nice to enjoy fresh air in the room without bugs. Bathtub stopper should probably be replaced because it was old, discolored, and soiled. Bathroom walls could use a little touch-up paint but none of those issues were big deal breakers for me. The things that could have definitely been better in the room were the loud bathroom fan (and the inability to turn it off independently from the light switch) and the hum from the mini fridge. The fridge clicks on/off 24/7, and at night when its quiet the hum is annoying. Glad I brought adapters for electronics since there are standard electrical outlets only, and no place to plug in USB cords. Check Out: Payment for your room is deducted from your credit card at the beginning of your stay when you check in. To check out you can drop your room keys in the box at the front desk. I chose to wait (10 minutes) for staff to return to the desk for a receipt. Value: I didn't visit the hotel spa this visit. However even with the Spring Special the hotel seems a bit overpriced, and without the spa is probably closer to a 3-star hotel. Caveat though is that everything in Calistoga appears to be overpriced - after all it's a resort town. Love the peace and tranquility though. Overall a really nice stay and I definitely recommend.

BOOKING: Below are our hotel RESERVATION DETAILS: Arrival Date: December 21, 2022 Departure Date: December 23, 2022 Average Room Rate Before Tax: $191.25 with a 15% AAA discount Room Type: Petite Queen Guestroom Total Room & Tax: $440.62 Deposit Policy: Deposit required of first night's stay plus tax ($233.27) and any hotel guest packages to secure reservation. I booked our room (initially for checking in on December 19 and checking out on December 21) directly via their website, paying a $233.27 deposit, but after reviewing the Reservation Confirmation, had to reach out to the team because the 15% AAA discount off of the $225/night rate was erroneously calculating to $202.50/night instead of $191.25/night. Guest Services confirmed that there was a glitch in their system and they quickly corrected the error. A couple of days later, I reached out again to request to move our stay dates. The request was granted without issue. HOTEL: Mount View Hotel and Spa​ is a Mission Revival style boutique hotel and historical Landmark nestled in the heart of Calistoga. No onsite parking lot; however, we were able to easily find free parking nearby. Upon entry, visitors are greeted by the warmth of the inviting lobby and vibrance from its eccentric interiors. With peppy Art Deco décor and furnishings, the inn boasts a charming ambiance that takes guests back to the 1920's and 1930's era. We stayed on the second floor in Room 221, a chic bedchamber with nods to the early 20th century, furnished with a high-quality, comfortable bed, flat-screen television, espresso machine, fridge, and glassware for self-catering. HOTEL SERVICE: The front desk staff, especially Manny, was extremely friendly and helpful. One night, when I couldn't find unmetered parking, Manny assured me that parking overnight in the metered spaces along the front of the hotel on Lincoln Avenue would not trigger a citation, even during the metered times. Seeing that I was apprehensive to do this, he promised to cover the cost of a parking ticket, if I would receive one. He was right; the timed metered parking was not enforced the next day. The complimentary light coffeehouse-style continental breakfast with fresh coffee, tea, fruit, juice and pastries, delivered directly to our room each morning was also very nice. TRUE SPA CALISTOGA: The whimsical accoutrements continue in the spa. No showers, but small, private lockers with robes and slippers are assigned to each patron. Since we were staying at a spa hotel, we booked appointments for restorative spa experiences, for Thursday, the 22nd, at 2:00 PM. It was very convenient to stumble downstairs for facials and revitalizing body treatments + massages. Our appointments were for the Detox + Glow (90MIN) (BODY THERAPIES) package, a relaxing combination of upper body massage (neck, arms, and shoulders) paired with a facial focus using Blue Beautifly Organic Skincare alongside the Bentonite Clay Mud Mask to nourish the body and skin head to toe. 90 minutes for $280 included a fully body massage. I was assigned to technician Rosa Cisneros who was very nice. The sessions were soothing and relaxing; however, Mom and I were confused at the conclusion, thinking that we were still to receive a full body mud mask or wrap, as per the description of the Detox + Glow package. Due to no mud mask, we were given a 15% discount. VERDICT: Mount View Hotel & Spa is a charming establishment and perfect place to slow down time and enjoy a respite.

I expressed my dismay in my message saying this kind of customer service would drive me to a competitor. Someone did call me back promptly and ragged me for being rude, saying her website was fine and saying she is doing the best she can under bad staffing circumstances. I did find out my date was unavailable and I could not redeem the gift certificate. Then when I said I would not apologize, but let's start again. She hung up on me. HUNG UP.

It has the best kind of retro, therapeutic Scooby-Doo vibes: charming, relaxing, and full of personality. A special shoutout to Jose at the front desk, who was extraordinary from start to finish. We called while we were on our way, and he gave us genuinely great customer service over the phone. When we arrived, we had the pleasure of being welcomed by Jose in person, and it was one of the best hotel-front-desk interactions I've had. He is a fantastic ambassador for this one-of-a-kind hotel. We loved the mineral baths, the holistic rooms, and the freshly made wellness drinks from the bar. Dr. Wilkinson's feels like a perfect wellness getaway with character--not overly polished or generic, but warm, memorable, and rejuvenating. We'll definitely be back again soon!

    We chose this location to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We mostly wanted to enjoy a peaceful…read moreweekend without kids and the three mineral pools on site. We arrived before check in time (which is 4:00). Upon arrival, they informed us that our room wasn't ready yet but we could use the pools until it was. We went ahead and were immediately impressed with all 3 pools. When we hadn't heard back by 3:45, I went back to the front desk and they checked us in. We stayed for 2 nights. Here are my pros and cons from our visit: Pros: Grounds: the grounds are nice and well kept. Pools: All three pools were clean and exactly as advertised online. The chaise lounges/seating near the pool offered ample lounging space and shade. The adult only area had a lush garden and cozy seating. They have a few pool noodles on hand but I recommend bringing your own if you enjoy using one. Staff/service: Excellent ! When we arrived and checked in, we were greeted with warmth and welcoming. I'd say that there was not one unfriendly staff member. I have to mention that Chris, in particular, was very attentive and accommodating to us and all other guests we saw interact with him. Much appreciated, especially as all Calistoga lost power which slightly displaced our plans for a few hours. Room: As soon as we walked in you could smell how clean it was. We had a courtyard view King room. We appreciated all of the special touches including the cute, retro mini fridge, the oil diffuser, and the extra large bath towels. The bed was very comfortable as well. Food/drinks: It makes it extra special to be able to order food/drinks to be delivered to you poolside. We loved that! We had two breakfasts. My favorite was the breakfast sandwich with bacon. We loved the cocktails, too. Cons: Construction noise: Indian Springs is expanding their resort which means, eventually, they will be directly across the street. The construction noise was a bit alarming when we were vacationing and wanting to sleep in. Luckily I brought ear plugs so it didn't bother me too much. It didn't take away much from our trip and I'm hopeful it actually boosts this wonderful establishment in the future. Day use guests: this may be nitpicking but it upset me enough to mention it. My husband was using a chaise lounge with an umbrella next to it. A couple showed up and proceeded to take the umbrella from where he was seated and moving it to their spot. When my husband explained that he was using it, they replied that they had "paid for it" and continued to move it away from our spot. They ended up being moved to another "reserved" spot and they did the same thing to another couple. The lack of social etiquette was unfortunate. Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay here and will return. *Another side note is that they are a dog friendly hotel (we have a dog but didn't bring him in this trip).

    My wife and I have a long-standing tradition of spending New Year's week here, and honestly, it's…read morewhere some of our favorite memories have been made. Solage is nestled right on the Silverado Trail in the heart of Calistoga, and the location is unbeatable--you're basically three minutes from downtown and a short, scenic drive from St. Helena and Yountville. The property itself is stunning. It's got that modern wine-country vibe with about 100 detached studios spread across 20-plus acres. When you're sitting in one of the natural hot spring pools or hitting the cold dips at the spa, it really does feel like world-class luxury. Between the mud slides, the gravity chairs, and the fitness classes, you can easily spend your whole trip without leaving the gates. The Food: Solbar is a must. We had the seven-course New Year's Eve prix fixe with wine pairings over numerous years, and each were equally unique and incredible. It's that perfect balance of farm-to-table "health" food and total comfort dishes. For something more low-key, Picobar by the pool has some of the best Baja-style tacos I've had in NorCal. Plus, the whole place is super dog-friendly, which is a huge win for us. The Experience & Pro-Tip: Definitely book through AmEx Platinum if you can. We used the Fine Hotels + Resorts program and snagged a $300 credit, a late 4 p.m. checkout, and an automatic upgrade. I will say, even "perfect" places have their off moments. This year, despite requesting a room close to the spa months in advance (and confirming twice), they initially tucked us away at the far edge of the property. I wasn't thrilled about hiking across 22 acres in my robe and sandals! I spoke with the front desk, and the concierge actually went back and reviewed my recorded calls to verify the request. They did move us about 30 minutes later to a spot half the distance away, though it lacked the private fenced patio and fireplace of our original booking. I was too tired to keep fighting it and just wanted to get to the spa, so I settled in. Despite that hiccup, the service and the atmosphere here remain some of the best in the world. It's not cheap, but for the memories and the access to Napa's best vineyards, it's worth it every time. Can't wait to be back next year.
