Fresh, and modern, the 55 rooms and suites have large, chic baths and elegant, simple furnishings.

The Hotel Healdsburg is great for groups, couples, or singles. Traveling with kids? They may prefer the Hotel Healdsburg's sister property we list below. The H2 hotel with its creekside pool feels a bit more family-oriented if that's what you are looking for.

Hotel Le Mars
One of the best luxury hotels in Healdsburg, the Hotel Le Mars is tastefully European in appearance and hospitality. The 16 rooms are filled with antique furnishings from the 17th and 18th centuries. Craving old-world sophistication during your wine country tours, this is the place for you.
The hotel does a nice job of meeting the needs of wine country tourists. They offer a wine tasting and touring package that incorporates your room rate, breakfast, transportation to their partner wineries, and an afternoon wine reception. Feel like burning off some of the calories in your glass? You can book a bicycle tour package through the hotel. This guided tour will keep you fit while you experience some of the top Sonoma wineries.
Bvlgari bath amenities, rainfall showers, sumptuous soaking tubs, in-room fireplaces, and the most elegantly appointed, supremely comfortable bedding make it most inviting. Light breakfast, delivered to rooms, is decidedly French as well, with the divine, locally made yogurt, fresh pastries, fruit, and granola. An ultimate combination of French country luxury and California wineries await you. The Hotel Le Mars is an exquisite stay for sophisticated guests.
Dry Creek Inn
The Dry Creek Inn may be part of a chain, but you'd never know it from the stunning grounds. This is a beautiful property located out on Dry Creek Road at Highway 101. Tuscan-inspired porches and patios transport you back to the grandeur of the Old Country. At this Sonoma wine country hotel, you will enjoy two outdoor pools, a hot tub, steam room, sauna, several outdoor seating and dining areas, and lovely walking paths. You will also find designated pet-friendly rooms, complimentary morning yoga classes on the Prada Patio, and a continental breakfast.

We consider this one of the best value hotels in Healdsburg. You can find rates here.
River Belle Inn
The River Belle Inn is an old painted lady restored to a beautiful example of California's late 19th-century architectural style. Previously inhabited by George La Tour and Giuseppe Simi in the early days of Sonoma, the River Belle today welcomes guests with a dozen beautiful garden and river suites. This is one of the best Healdsburg hotels for anyone longing to connect with Sonoma's rich history. We know you are here for the world-class wine, but get to know more about the history and you'll appreciate Healdsburg even more!
The many amenities offered by the River Belle is another reason we consider this one of the best Healdsburg inns. Organic, locally sourced breakfast is available at your convenience. The kitchen serves up omelets, quiche, crepes, bacon and eggs, and beverages, either in-room, on the covered porch, or along the river. Staff will pack a delightful picnic basket for daytime adventures. As a guest of the River Belle, you get private river access and you can dine by the river in the morning. A true California experience, the River Belle is charming and comfortable.

The Honor Mansion delivers luxury accommodations in a resort setting a mile from the downtown square in Healdsburg.

Four vineyard suites, four cottage suites, and five mansion rooms offer a good selection of options with a full gourmet breakfast buffet, down comforters, plush robes, property-wide Wi-Fi, and passes to a local health club.
Do you enjoy being active, we mean beyond lifting a glass to your lips, while you tour wine country? The Honor Mansion is the best Healdsburg hotel if you do. A few laps in the pool and a tennis match will get your blood pumping before you set off on your guided wine tour. Make sure to enjoy some of the gourmet breakfast before jetting off. Wine tasting on an empty stomach is a big no-no.
The Honor Mansion fills up quickly in prime touring season. Check for availability here.
H2 Hotel
While we aren't big fans of the descriptor eco-chic, we do love this sustainable Healdsburg hotel. The sister property to the Healdsburg Hotel, the H2 was conceived and built with sustainability in mind. We applaud this effort. Many of the better California wineries are focusing on how they can minimize their impact on the planet. It's nice to have a wine country hotel follow suit.
Along with the laudable focus on the environment, we see an equal commitment to designing and building a kick-ass hotel. The H2 doesn't skimp on amenities in their effort to be earth-friendly. They offer guests a beautiful solar heated pool, bikes for exploring Healdsburg, complimentary breakfast and they even have a free yoga class on Sunday mornings. That's the perfect way to shake of the cobwebs from Saturday's tasting tour!
We also like the non-wine-lovers package the H2 Hotel offers. You get special treatment at a local distillery and brewery as part of the package. If you are all about keeping things green the H2 Hotel is one of the best Healdsburg hotels for you.

The Farmhouse Inn
Ok, so technically the Farmhouse Inn isn't in Healdsburg. So how did it end up on our list of the best Healdsburg hotels? Great question. One reason it is on the list is that we have no plans to write a list of great Forestville hotels. Just isn't happening. The other reason is that this is an amazing hotel that's only 12 miles from the center of Healdsburg. The list of accolades the Farmhouse Inn has received is so long they can't fit it on a standard web page.
Let's start with the Michelin starred restaurant. Local ingredients paired with a master chef and an exhaustive wine list is a recipe for success. You can select a three, four or five-course meal that can be expertly paired with wines from California and around the world if you so desire.
The accommodations are pure Sonoma. The mix of the rustic farmhouse design with elegant bedding and top-notch amenities creates a comfortable yet sophisticated environment. This is the perfect place to reflect back on the wines you tasted that day while sitting in front of a roaring fire.
You'll also appreciate the onsite spa and the wine experiences available through the hotel. The Farmhouse Inn has everything you would expect from a luxury Sonoma hotel.
