Historic Sonora Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot in a cool historic building. It's old, so there are some old features, but it adds char. Rooms were nice and clean and the staff was SO friendly and helpful. I loved the rooftop patio and that they're dog friendly! The only con is that the included breakfast was meh, and everything was served in single-use plastic."

"This hotel was a great place to stop on our way to Yosemite. Rooms were clean, front desk staff was helpful, and the hotel was in the perfect location to be able to walk to many restaurants, bars, and shops in the downtown Sonora area."

The Inn on Knowles Hill

10/10 Excellent

"The host is AMAZING. She is the kindest!! She makes the most delicious breakfasts I maybe ever had. Her decorations are impeccable and the vibes there are great. There are so many cats there!!! If you love animals you will love it there. My boyfriend and I stayed there for two nights and three days and honestly I want to go back. We went during the summer so it was HOT (we knew that before we got there). She told us the best time to go is in the fall with all the pumpkins and fall vibes and I and am definitely going to come back during that time. I highly recommend going to the Knowles inn. It really doesn't matter when you go. You'll have a good time at any point in the year! :))"

Villa Sierra

10/10 Excellent

"We loved staying here. Cute place with out door kitties & so many birds. Enjoyed sitting on the deck drinking coffee in the morning listening to the birds sign."
