Found this place online during covid. I thought it was the cutest place in the cutest town. Finally after 2 years I had a chance to stay there with two good friends. The area was very quiet and peaceful, despite having the main road in front. My room was cozy and my favorite part of all was the soothing spa like music in my room when I entered as well as outside the room / within the compound. Definitely a must place to visit when in Glen Ellen. Close to coffee shops and restaurants and the staff was very helpful. Make sure you come for the daily 5pm wine and snacks in the lobby.

We have stayed at Gaige House several times of the last five years. While the stay was good, they have eliminated a few small amenities where nice to have. They no longer have thier home made cookies, which were delicious!!!! They also eliminated the daily paper at breakfast. Again, while the overall stay was good, those small amenities where missed. Please bring the them back.

I went here on a solo vacation in 2017 and have been thinking of it ever since. One of the most serene experiences of my life. I've resolved to finally come back sometime next year, can't wait. An absolutely magical place

This is probably one of the most special hotels in California with experience of Japanese-inspired ambiance. If you visiting Sonoma spend couple nights here to get away from all the chaos and crowds. They have many different Zen-style guest rooms. The one we chose is Ryokan Zen Creekside or Garden Suite. Vet private and have a outdoor deck by the creek.
