Frommer's Review
Recently taken over by the slick Thompson hotel group, this remains Wine Country's finest B&B. Here everything is luxurious: Silk-soft linens and premium down comforters grace firm mattresses, furniture and artwork are of museum quality, and breakfast and appetizers are prepared with herbs from the garden by an impressive in-house chef. Behind the inn is a 1 1/2-acre oasis with perfectly manicured lawns, a 40-foot-long swimming pool, and a creekside hammock under a Heritage oak. All rooms have private bathrooms and king- or queen-size beds; two rooms have Jacuzzi tubs, and several have fireplaces. The eight spa garden suites have, among other delights, granite soaking tubs. On sunny days, breakfast is served at individual tables on the large terrace. Evenings are best spent sipping premium wines in the reading parlor.
Facilities:
Large heated pool; free Wi-Fi; in-room massage

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
