Absolutely immaculate day spa. Everything was incredibly clean, simple, peaceful, and relaxing from the moment I walked in. The rooms are beautiful and serene, the prices are surprisingly affordable for the quality of the experience, and the service was exceptional. Nicole and Kathryn are honestly dream workers. So kind, attentive, and genuinely wonderful at what they do. Hands down one of the best massages I've ever had. I left feeling completely relaxed and already wanting to come back. If I could come here every day, I absolutely would. Such a hidden gem, and I cannot wait to book my next appointment! read more

Sonoma is a wonderful place to visit for the great wines, cozy settings and amazing cafes....To get the wheels turning I highly recommend spending a few nights at "The Cottage Inn & Spa"! Excellent location only a couple blocks to the center of town. Having just spent some time in Sonoma I wanted to make sure members of Yelp a great place to visit in the future.. Enjoy... A special thank you to Irene who provided us with a warm Welcome to the Inn.... read more

Really cute place for a short getaway. I stayed in the Mission Suite which is right next to the front office. It's probably the more noisy of the suites but it's a quiet street in general. I like the room since you can access your car from the front patio. I also like the back patio which is pretty private considering how close it's to the neighboring house. The kitchen with breakfast countertop is very useful as well. The inn is super clean and decorated World Market style (I recognized more than a few vases and furnishings from there). I also saw a toddler staying there but am not sure whether that's an exception. read more

Teri at Cottage Inn & Spa exemplifies true dedication and exceptional service. Despite their schedule being completely booked, she went out of her way to accommodate my wife and me by arranging for two massage therapists. Her willingness to put in the extra effort and ensure we had a wonderful experience did not go unnoticed. It is rare to encounter someone so committed to going above and beyond to meet their clients' needs, and we are incredibly grateful for her thoughtful and tireless efforts. Thank you, Teri, for your outstanding care and professionalism--you made our visit truly special. We cannot recommend Cottage Inn & Spa, and especially Teri, highly enough! read more

So going to this place was a surprise for my birthday, so I never looked at the reviews or pictures. But my husband and I were a little disappointed. I don't like tile floors especially because I didn't have slippers or socks to walk around. The shower was very small and I thought if you were a big person you couldn't even fit . My husband said the fireplace didn't work. My husband thought it was more like a bed-and-breakfast where you got maybe a small breakfast with fruit and coffee. They did have very good coffee in the room and they left us pastries which were good. The bed I believe was a Tempur-pedic and I slept pretty well. It was close to the square which was great. Even though it was raining, we didn't care, and we walked around the whole square and then ate and walked back. The TP holder maybe should've been on the other side because my husband kept knocking it. Some of the lights you weren't sure where to turn them on but eventually found them. Then I didn't know they had a charging station at the desk if you flipped this partition open. Maybe just put a little note so I would've known. Great that it had a refrigerator was surprised no TV as most places have TVs these days. We checked in after four and so there was nobody on site. We were greeted in the morning, which was nice. I did an edit to add one more picture. But then all the other pictures were gone of the tub that you could hardly get into and the shower stall. Not sure what happened on yelp. read more

My husband surprised me with a birthday massage today! We arrived a little early and were greeted with warm smiles and cold bottled waters. Terry showed us to the beautiful courtyard where we waited in patio chairs, next to a water fountain and lots of shade (thank goodness because our 5-month old was heating up in the stroller). I got the 90-minute wellness massage with Stephanie. We chatted briefly about the areas that I wanted to focus on, as a new mom. She was very courteous and checked in on me throughout the massage. The pressure was perfect and the lavender lemon scent was soothing and calming. I was so very relaxed that I dozed off and on! This was a perfect way to celebrate my birthday! Thanks Stephanie! Will definitely come back again to treat my wonderful husband for a couples' massage! read more

Was looking for last minute place to stay after a wedding we were going to in Napa and we stumbled across this place on booking.com. Their last room available that night was their smallest suite(The Courtyard Suite) which was perfect for us since we were just staying for a quick getaway :) We were also looking to check in early to see if we could get ready there before the wedding so I left a voicemail after making the reservation and they called me back the next morning letting me know that if it isn't booked the night before, they'd let me know. I didn't receive a call so I called them back and they responded via text to let me know they'll have housekeeping clean our suite next. So accommodating! Our room was ready by noon and we got there around 1:45. The property is intimate and relaxing and our room, while pretty small, was charming and just what we needed for the night. It was so nice being able to get ready there and drop off our things and we appreciated it so much! I do want to note that the walls are pretty thin so you can hear everything. Also, our coffeemaker wasn't working which was a downside, but our pastries the next morning was a lovely touch :) I did notice our basket was smaller compared to the other suites and was thinking if it was because our room was smaller/cheaper or if it was because they had more guests staying? We had 2 donuts and one of them was bacon. Both my husband and I are vegetarian so we just picked the bits off :) Oh, and sometimes the parking can be a bit hard to find since it's street parking. I think we arrived the same time as some other guests and they had to double back on the street also trying to look for a place to park. Overall, beautiful place to stay and the staff seemed very friendly. Would recommend staying here for the weekend to enjoy the tranquility of the grounds and the hospitality. read more

We loved this boutique hotel right in the heart of Sonoma. We were in town for a wedding, and loved that this was close to downtown yet still quiet and peaceful. It's walking distance to everything you'd want to see, and we had no issues with parking. The room was beautiful and well maintained, and we loved being able to sit in the courtyard in the evening. read more

Didn't want to checkout on Sunday after a great stay at The Cottage Inn & Spa. Everything about this spot is fantastic.

Had a fantastic stay at The Cottage Inn and Spa in the Arroyo suite. The inn is conveniently located a couple blocks from the plaza, where there are some great restaurants and tasting rooms. The inn itself is also quiet and quaint. The suite was very cozy, relaxing, and well-decorated. It was especially great to have a mini kitchen and private fenced yard! There is no TV, but we knew this in advance and brought a Bluetooth speaker to play some background music. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again! p.s. We also saw a deer at the home next door! read more

From the architecture and interior design to the simple cute coffee spoons and lanterns provided in the room, we were happy with it all. The staff was very friendly and allowed us to check in early which is always a plus for me. We reserved the East Suite which was nice and cozy. The room didn't have a TV which we ended up appreciating as we were able to really unwind and relax. Love the jacuzzi and the Beekman toiletries! read more

Stayed here alone for 2 nights, for a solo retreat after working in the frontline of covid for the past year and now in transition to pilot my own practice. I stayed in the Mission Suite, the layout was very aesthetically pleasing and loved the decor/design. I loved the little fresh pastries that are delivered to your room in the morning, made my life much easier without thinking of what to do for breakfast. I loved the jacuzzi bath in this suite because it has a window view of bamboo shoots and nature, perfect for meditation. They provided robes, cleaning supplies, tea/a bag of local coffee. The kitchen area was beautiful. The only downside is the lack of privacy and poor soundproof area/walls. I heard way more than I wanted from a couples' suite near me the second night lol, and also I kept hearing moving (guessing it is the cleaning staff) well into past 1am in the night which kept me up, made it hard for me to sleep. The location is amazing and easy to walk to downtown Sonoma and close to Glen Ellen which I hiked around and explored a bit too. read more

Really charming inn with almost southwest feel. Excellent service- easy check inn (late), housekeeping 110%!!! Central location in a quaint and quiet neighborhood. Drawback: lack of space at bathroom sink and oddly placed electrical outlet. Breakfast was 2 baked goods (one per guest) and I believe purchased off-site; although tasty, not a fully satisfying start to the day. Property sort of minimal in what to do- central outside sitting area with fountain (some board games) and tiny backyard area with chairs but beyond that, nothing. When booking, we looked forward to moon-gazing through the skylight but said skylight was minuscule! Tile floors-convenient but a warm throw rug would have been pleasant. To recap, a sweet place but limited. We would stay again if in Sonoma...! read more

My sons gifted me w/a stay and massage here, when different flight times interrupted our wine country arrivals. SUCH a beautiful, intimate and lovely space! A warm pastry in a basket hanging at the door in the morning....ohmy! AND the MASSAGE was one of the finest ever experienced. Stephanie, a gentle and wise soul was intuitive and skilled at her work. Pure bliss. read more

Lovely Mediterranean-esque boutique hotel in the heart of Sonoma. I've been to wine country multiple times and this was my favorite hotel and location. Love the semi-private outdoor spaces to relax after a day of wine tasting, we shared our outdoor space with one other room but it was perfectly private. Also excellent to be able to walk to town for dinner or coffee - very rare in my experience in wine country and a really nice, especially after wine. The innkeeper was also lovely and especially helpful in sourcing a taxi when we had a hard time finding Uber/Lyft. Will be back for sure! read more

In A Nutshell: -The Cottage Inn & Spa is a wonderful place to stay while you visit Sonoma. -After staying at the Fairmont & this location, both of which are very good, I prefer staying here. -The location is excellent b/c it's a 5 minute walk to downtown. -The cottages/suites are all unique, I was able to stay in a cozy one-bedroom, one bath w/ a kitchen, living room w/ fireplace (bummer b/c it wasn't working) & a tiny backyard that leads out to your car space. -You can also book discounted packages like their full-body couples massages and/or wine tasting down the street at Sojourn Cellars (both were awesome experiences). -The customer service is super-nice & they always give you a warm welcoming smile. -The semi-private courtyard was great to look out at while enjoying breakfast or the high-end tea/coffee (which is supplied in the suite). -Speaking of breakfast, at 8am you get a paper bag hung on your front door which has some baked goods (English scone & French croissant). Overall, this is such an awesome, quiet place to stay at for a couple of days while you enjoy Sonoma & the surrounding wine-country. BOOK IT! read more

While visiting Sonoma for 2 days, my husband & I booked the Courtyard Room at The Cottage Inn & Spa (it was the only room still available at the time of booking). Street parking was easy to find right in front of the inn. Check-in was simple & we were pleased to find that our room was ready a few hours early. First impressions of the room were favorable. It was simple, but very clean & esthetically pleasing. It looked just like the online photos. The small kitchenette with a microwave, coffee maker, bag of fresh ground coffee, tea bags, jam, refrigerator with cream/butter/water, was a nice touch & appreciated. We were surprised to find that there was not a television in our room, but it was not a big deal. I think it's worth mentioning though, in case that's a deal breaker for you. The complimentary pastries delivered to our room in the morning were a bit disappointing. With all of the great bakeries in the area, we were surprised that the pastries were two sugary donuts. Again, not a huge deal, but we expected a bit more. The biggest complaint though with this particular room is that the door is frosted glass and at night, with the lights from the courtyard shining through, it was literally like having a light on in our room. If you are sensitive to light when trying to sleep like we are, then we do not recommend booking the courtyard room! With that being said though, we would definitely consider staying at The Cottage Inn & Spa again, just in a different room. read more

The coziest little Inn & Spa! We loved the location... literally walking distance from the Sonoma town square. Parking was easy & accessible with no fees or need to move our car on the weekend. We were a tad early and were greeted with smiles and welcomed right into our room, with a personalized welcome note on our door. I love that we were given a tour of the light switches, remotes, ect. for the room; I found this helpful and personal. We stayed in the South Suite, which was a perfect size for us. There was a blanket in the bottom drawer (unbeknownst to me until check-out day), an ironing board and iron, safe, microwave, fridge, little lantern light and mini speaker. We loved and used the fire whenever we were in the room and were thankful to be able to adjust the heat ourselves with our remote. The bath had jets to make it a jacuzzi and my husband enjoyed this. The February weather was too cold for us to sit outside on our little deck, but it would be lovely in the summer. Of course we had to indulge in the deep tissue & Swedish (prenatal) massage one day as well. They brought sandals to our room, greeted and took us to the spa room, which is beautiful, serene and peaceful. The massages were amazing; we are thankful for Gloria & Willow's talent. I would totally recommend this inn & spa to anyone traveling to the Sonoma area. read more

What a GREAT stay!!! Checked in after a day of boozing at Ledson and before a frou frou dinner... We were warmly greeted, given a tour of the facilites, then shown to our room. Was super sweet that they had a "Happy Birthday" sign up for hubby. The room itself was small, but delightfully appointed, and just perfect for the two of us. After more boozing and eating, we stumbled back into the courtyard out of the rain and found the fire pit roaring with tea and fresh water (and Vitamin C packs too yasssss!)... We sat mesmerized for quite some time until we warmed up :) Slept very soundly (possibly because of the wine lol but also the lovely linens) and woke up to yummy fresh pastries, fresh OJ, local coffee, and milk. Was a home run - we will be back. read more

The location is perfect. Just off the main plaza/square away from the traffic; yet just a 5-10mins walk to great restaurants. Thank you again for a wonderful stay. Will definitely be back... read more

Perfect Social Distancing Getaway! My husband & I were desperately looking for somewhere to get away to for a night and I felt limited by not wanting to stay somewhere that would require walking through interior hallways & riding in elevators. I was about to give up after consistently striking out on Airbnb. Then I found the Cottage Inn & Spa! All the suites are either accessible from an outside door or from within the atrium. We choose the East Suite which had a double jacuzzi tub & a cute little garden surrounded by bamboo for privacy. The room had a fireplace with tea light candles built into the logs which was perfect for creating the ambiance of a fire without adding to the summer heat. Everyone we encountered was so lovely & helpful. We will definitely come back! read more

Great location. Quiet, relaxing, rejuvenating ambience. Extremely friendly and warm masseuses and staff (like, over the top guardian-angel, santa clause, best friend since childhood type of warm). Wonderful fire pit seating area, hot tea provided, amazing massages that leave no stone unturned (see that? see what I did there? With, with the stone thing? Hot stones? Yessss sir. The massages are on point). Plus, as many people have pointed out, you are literally a 3-4 minute walk from the beautiful, picturesque town square. I will absolutely be back, to take special care of my back. :) Ha! I did it again. Maybe these guys have a 'comedy' courtyard onsite where I can set up some chairs and do stand up for people after their massage. ;) read more

I stumbled upon this spa by recommendation from a friend. The location was easy to find, and there was plenty of parking available. I was greeted by the woman working the front desk in a friendly manner and was offered a water, coffee or tea and waited in the courtyard for the therapists. The wait was short, we arrived about 15 minutes early for the appointment. My husband and I got ready for our massages and the therapists walked in. The therapists didn't start the timer until they started the massage. This was a pleasant surprise. I used to go to massage envy all the time and they start the timer at your appointment time no matter what and they do not pull you back to start getting ready for the massage until the appointment time. The time we paid for was spent 100% on being massaged! The therapists were wonderful, they spoke in a professional manner but still made the conversation feel personal. They asked my husband and I about any areas that we wanted focus on and also about any areas that we wanted them to avoid. They also asked about allergies and medical conditions they should be made aware of. This was a nice change up from being asked this by a slip of paper that makes one feel like they are applying for life insurance. Throughout the massage the both asked my husband and me if we were comfortable with the level of pressure and materials being used. They had the perfect balance of talking just enough to feel like we weren't being ignored and we weren't being bothered. This massage was also during covid times, they let asked us if we would like them to wears masks and informed us of their vaccination status when we asked. As someone who has 2 different major medical conditions, both effect my immune system, this was a huge comfort. Our therapists were Stephanie and Kassandra. The products the therapists used were very nice. We were also shown there additional products for purchase after the massage was over. My husband has horrible back pain from a torn anulus and the CBD cream we purchased (upon recommendation) from the spa helps a lot! We were also given a gift bag as we booked mother's day specials and the products inside were quite nice. I haven't used all of them yet but the CBD drops help my mind relax without making me fall asleep instantly. All of the products in the gift bag are available for purchase from the spa when I run out so I will be going back! The room was spotlessly clean and the décor was unassuming and unique. The smell of the room was beautiful but not overwhelming, just pleasant. The door was open to a patio outside that had a fountain. The fountain's added water noise was a welcome accompaniment to the relaxing music being played at the perfect volume. The location was also perfect. My Mother-In-Law had a massage right after my husband and me. We were able to walk to the plaza in downtown and shop and snack while waiting for her. The walk was literally less than 5 minutes. Overall the experience was worth the price and was excellent. If I ever need a place to stay in Sonoma I will book a room at the cottages to experience those as well. read more

This was our second stay at the cottage in and spa. The staff is very friendly - 5 stars. We stayed at the south suite both times. It's a large suite with a sitting living room area with a small table and a bedroom and patio and bathroom. Pros: we were greeted enthusiastically and called when our room was ready early. comfortable sitting area with extra blankets, fireplace, 2 heaters and they gave us a space heater. Coffee and tea available and pastries in the morning. Again, the staff is pretty great- eager to answer any questions and print out maps to help you get anywhere you want to explore. Cons: they no longer have heating pads on the bed - and the bedroom gets quite cold while the living room area gets toasty quickly. The wall heater in the bedroom felt ineffective. The shower in the bathroom - the nozzle worked but you had to hold it. You couldn't attach it to anything. This made for an extremely uncomfortable shower. You could take a bath- but in this draught that felt really wasteful. Most bed and breakfasts provide an actual breakfast - this is pastries and cereal. Our neighbors (we shared a wall in our living room) were VERY loud. We heard blaring music and their conversation until at least 10:30 (we asked at 10 for them to turn it down) and finally just put on white noise to try to drown it out. Not a relaxing stay - and don't feel eager to come back. read more

We stayed in the Chapel Room to celebrate our anniversary. We parked right outside when we arrived and were kindly greeted by the staff. The room was fine and cozy. But there was sound from the water fountain in the plaza during the night so if you're a light sleeper, you might want to wear some ear plugs. One of the best parts of this place is the quiet areas throughout that you can hang and plan your next. They have a mediative quality about them. Another plus is that it's off the main square but super close so you get the best of both worlds. The continental breakfast was a nice touch in the morning as well. read more

Simply heavenly-- beautiful grounds, fresh pastries in the morning, fruit+OJ+milk+tea/coffee already in the room, complimentary wine tastings at wineries, within walking distance to Sonoma Plaza...Oh man, I want to live there. The best part of our stay? The upgrade! At check-in, we were informed that we were staying in the colossal Mission Suite instead of our reserved Courtyard Room. Guess a Thursday-Saturday stay in the off season is not all that popular... read more

Great service, cute hotel and great location (totally walkable to the plaza, but yet extremely quiet in your room). The room was extremely large and comfortable (Mission Suite--HUGE with sitting area, bed area, full kitchen, shower, sink, toilet, huge whirlpool tub. It's like one big room, though, so if you're sharing it, there's no privacy between the living room and bedroom). Got the $199/night last minute special so that made the value totally worth it. IF it was full price, I'm not sure I'd say that it was worth the value (~$400/night or something). Everything was super clean. There was OJ, coffee, milk in the fridge--full kitchen gear and some fruits in the fruit basket. They only downside: Breakfast was simple, overly stale pastries (2 stale croissants and 1 dry muffin) that were less than memorable. When they say they provide breakfast, I would argue that they provide something slightly edible but make sure you have an alternate plan for breakfast, unless you like pastries that can bounce off the counter. There's a neat central like area in the back that they have a fire going at night. Just a nice way to end the night--you can bring some of the wine you purchased along the way or just sit and be mesmerized by the fire. They offer massages on-site, but you have to book in advance because the therapists are not on-site unless you have an appointment. There's no specific parking lot but street parking wasn't a problem and once you park, you have no reason to drive since it's so accessible. Totally awesome hide-away inn in Sonoma. Regular price seems pricey but if a) you can take advantage of a special or b) price isn't an issue--head straight there on your next trip to Sonoma! read more

Cottage Inn and Spa feels like it literally popped out of a story book. it's too good to be true! Got a great living social deal and stayed here awhile ago, and still remember it very well. Wonderful ambiance, delicious pastries delivered to our door in the morning, a cozy breakfast patio and view, artistic fireplaces, perfect proximity to the Sonoma plaza, OMG.....I will never run out of wonderful things to say about this place! Still dreaming about the next time I could go back there.....such a gem! read more

Not much more I can add on top of the other amazing praise.. but to sum it up - FANTASTIC. Not only is the location great - you can walk right to the plaza - but the grounds are so beautiful you might not want to leave. The massage services are great, as is the rest of the staff. Everything is very clean, with a very peaceful/cozy atmosphere. Its definitely more than an "inn" - as mentioned in another review, it really is a "retreat". 6 stars! read more
