Pulled in without a booking. Was shown to a room straight away despite disturbing the owner out of hours. The room was comfortable, smallish, very cutely decorated, and with a small private bathroom. Bed was tall, four poster and comfortable. Breakfast was a tasty continental with the added bonus of boiled eggs (which i liked). We received helpful recommendations for... More

After the long pretty drive up from SFO on a beautiful day, Brent(?) was very helpful with location info on groceries, restaurants, and all that is Mendocino. The room was comfortable and affordable. Two days in the area followed by the drive down to St. Helena via 128/29 was a very nice escape. I wish I could articulate on the... More

I take a trip with my boyfriend every year to Mendocino. We have stayed at four different places and Nicholson House Inn was by far the best place. We had one the suites where you get a kitchen and living space which was located on the first floor. The Inn was centrally located to everything and the breakfast spread is... More

The owner of Nicholson is such a nice man, but I think it's worth mentioning that the breakfast is continental-style and it starts later in the morning. It was a big spread and the scones were very, very good but I'm used to warm breakfasts at B&Bs (in fact to me a warm breakfast is the biggest selling point), so... More

We stayed for a weekend at the Nicholson House. We booked Grandma's room. The room is cute, clean, and small with a private bathroom. However the bed is very tall and we had to use the stepper to get in and out of it. Breakfast is good, and it is served by the owner between 8:30AM and 9:30AM in the... More

We recently had a very nice experience at the Nicholson House B&B in Mendocino. Brent, our host, was a helpful as can be regarding restaurant and activity recommendations. He also did a good job on the breakfast, which is held in the first floor common area of the main building. This is not an upscale, "fancy," retreat, but very comfortable... More

We stayed one night the room was fairly small but comfortable and clean not having a tv is unsual nowadys but we really didnt miss it. The breakfast area was very small but the food on offer was very good and the service was good and friendly. All in all a great stay at very reasonable price.

We were only here one night, arriving around 7pm and leaving at 7am the next day, and we didn't really get to see much that the town had to offer, but we couldn't have afforded many other lodging options there (I think there are tons!). So that being said, we were perfectly happy with our stay at Nicholson. I didn't... More

We stayed in Mendocino recently and decided to stay at the Nicholson inn because of it's excellent location and favorable rates. We were not disappointed - it is less than a block away from the heart of the town with it's charming restaurants and quaint boutiques. The room was small but very comfortable with an outstanding feather mattress. Breakfast is... More
