Let me begin with saying that, I have a strange fear of bed and breakfasts so I wanted more of a hotel type of place. They have a restaurant on site which is nice, no room service which is ok, at least food near by. You are also in the central part of Sonoma's town square which is cute and... More

We were choosing before several hotels in the area before deciding on El Dorado. The price is great, it is centrally located and the rooms are very comfortable. There is a cafe that great for a quick breakfast in the morning, a fantastic snack around lunch or a beer at the end of the night. The bed is very comfortable... More

The El Dorado was a great place to stay while in Sonoma for an evening! Staff was very friendly and helpful. The room, very clean with plenty of space, with the exception being the bathroom. It was large enough, for sure, but I felt a bit restricted when it came time to shave. Would I stay at the El Dorado... More

The El Dorado Hotel in Sonoma was a nice place. It's a small boutique hotel with limited staff and service, but very charming. The building is over a 100 years old but the rooms were comfortable. The location is also great, there is tons of stuff to walk to near by, including restaurants and shops. We stayed 2 week nights... More

The Hotel itself is lovely. Room was very nice. Front Desk staff was wonderful. However, our room was over the terrace cafe and we had to call 3 times during the night (til past midnight) to ask to please keep the noise down. Staff was most understanding. Would stay here again, but not in the same room! More

Perfect location and great value. The staff gave us great "wine country" tips. Enjoyable stay all around. More

This is a great hotel with a fab location right in the heart of Sonoma. We booked a room overlooking the square and were not disappointed. Unlike other reviewers we did not have a problem with noise (we stayed just one night, Thursday). Standard of cleanliness is high and although basic the room was very attractive and comfortable - excellent... More

The El Dorado is a great find. In the heart of Sonoma, close to everything. The restaurant is fabulous, rooms are charming and very clean. And the young man at the front desk for the hotel, Kenny, is all the advertisement this place needs. So helpful, so knowledgeable, and so willing to go above and beyond. We had an excellent... More

The ED Kitchen is fabulous (great food, wonderful service) and it was such a pleasure to walk upstairs to our room afterward and not have to deal with driving, parking, etc. Our room was spacious but the bath was tiny (two people could not be in it at the same time). Worse, it was on the street side and the... More

This is a great place to stay; it's quiet and in a great location. It's clean too. The only bad thing is there is no elevator to take your bags up. I stayed there in 1994, and then in September 2011. It is up to par and updated. For a less expensive alternative in a great location, this option is... More
