Napa Valley Railway Inn

自助入住，蠻方便

We went to the Napa area for our anniversary. Not our first visit by any means. We usually stay in downtown Napa but decided to give the Railway Inn a shot. Needless to say, we were not disappointed and would highly recommend if you are looking for a modest place to lie your head after a day of wine tasting. The beds were ultra comfortable with extra pillows. The bathroom was just the right size for 2 people...still, we usually took turns. The room had a TV (that I think my husband turned on once), 2 sitting chairs and wine glasses for a nightcap. It even had 2 chairs and a table outside the door to our room. We sat out there a few times for wine and breakfast. I think there were only a few other guests during the time we were there, so it was very quiet. One morning, Balloons Aloft were taking off from the parking lot behind the Inn. Very cool to see it up close (even though we have personally done the balloons before)! Very quaint, lots of other restaurants and tasting rooms within walking distance. A big plus is the Mini Model Cafe located in one of the cabooses, which serves up breakfast sandwiches, coffees, lattes, etc. We had something from here every morning except our last morning (I think it was closed). At any rate, we would highly recommend the Railway Inn to anyone visiting the area.

We stayed in a caboose for three nights. We found our carriage to be charming, a little basic but had everything we needed. Bonus was having the Model bakery at the end of the hotel. We enjoyed breakfast from there every morning on the deck outside our room. The unique experience outweighed all the negatives but there were a few. The room AC was noisy and struggled in the +90F heat. The office was never “manned” while we were there, so to be honest it is a stretch to call it a hotel. We did not mind as our bodies were on Central time but be prepared for a hullabaloo at 5:30 am as hot air balloons take off behind the hotel at sunrise.
