“Romantic Hideaway at Calistoga's Coziest B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

Brannan Cottage Inn was the first B&B I 'd stayed and I was impressed! As soon as you walk in, you're greeted by the sweetest little Jack Russell Terrier, Brannan's own greeter dog. The location is great! It's within walking distance to downtown Calistoga (restaurants, shops, and spas). Doug's (the host) hospitality made us feel like home. I mentioned briefly over the phone while making a reservation that it was my fiance's birthday, when we checked into our room, they included complimentary champagne to help us celebrate the special occasion.

Their homemade breakfast along with a full continental breakfast bar were amazing, not to mention their "never-ending" chocolate chip cookie jar, fruit plate, and port wine and chocolate.

The B&B is also within 10-minute drive to some great wineries. We will definitely return to Brannan Cottage Inn next time we visit Calistoga!

Room Tip: This is a pet-friendly hotel. Their Sage room and one of the larger suites is ideal if you're b...

Tammy--Thanks for having your iniitial B&B experience with us. Glad that you both liked all that we had to offer. Calistoga's a wonderful little town, surrounded by wineries and scenery "to die for". We're very happy that you got to enjoy the Inn and the town and region. And Pinot Grigio sure enjoyed your vist and the attention you lavished on him. He just asked me "When's she coming back?"

“Honeymoon”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2012

My husband and I loved this B&B. We had never been to a B&B before and this was a great experience. The room was cute and we received a special bottle of champagne from the proprietors with a nice note wishing us a happy honeymoon. Doug helped us pick out where which vineyards to visit and we couldn't ask for a greater host. Fantastic!

Room Tip: We stayed in the Periwinkle room and I liked it because it was not too overdone and it was right off...

“Awesome first Bed and Breakfast experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2011

Brannan Cottage Inn is a perfect little B&B. You can't beat the location, very close to downtown Calistoga and to the overall Napa valley area. This was our 3 year anniversary, and we were welcomed by a nice bottle of champagne. We were in one of the larger rooms that are both pet and family friendly. Doug is a great host and guide to help you plan your day. There is a lot of value in staying here, not only do you get breakfast but Doug has a lot of coupons for restaurants, spas and wineries to help you save a lot of money. This was my first B&B experience and I had a great time and was very impressed by the property and the host. Thank you Doug,

Room Tip: I would recommend either room 5 or 6 based on our experience.

“Pleasant, relaxing B&B”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011

Brannan Cottage Inn is nice, peaceful, relaxing place to spend a long weekend. The amenities were as advertised. Our room was quaint and rather small, but it was comfortable and fit our needs well. Breakfasts were very good, and the port & chocolates and endless cookie jar were as advertised. The location is great - just a short walk down the road to all the shops, restaurants, and tasting rooms! All in all, a nice, relaxing getaway.
