We stayed three nights at the Ink House and found it quite warm and welcoming. Breakfast was too good, accompanied with a mimosa....Yummy! Our room was spacious with a flat screen television and a view of the vineyards. We actually watched the harvest of the grapes, very Napa Valley. We stayed on a weekend and failed to make dinner reservations, mistake, but the staff insisted on making reservations for us. Thank goodness they insisted because there was a huge wait and we just walked in. Thank you, Andrea. All in all, we had a great time and left feeling anxious to return.

We spent two nights at this B&B in September and had a wonderful time. The room was big with a comfortable king bed, the breakfast both mornings was outstanding and we asked (and received) recipes for the original egg dishes (Death by Cheese, and Artichoke Frittata), the Innkeepers (Rachel and Andrea) were friendly and made us dinner reservations each night and recommended activities at breakfast in the morning. We stayed in the Torino Room which is a former master bedroom with a flat screen TV, wireless internet access, and looks out over the White Hall Lane Winery vineyards and the large backyard lawn and gardens. We also took advantage of the many winery VIP tasting passes and had a great time in this beautiful old mansion. It's the kind of place that makes you feel very comfortable and we made good friends with a number of the guests while enjoying the stone basement game room, wine and appetizer happy hour, and the Observatory Lounge at the top of the house. Also used the Ink House bicycles one day (no charge). The two best things about the Ink House are the amazing location as you are surrounded by wineries and vineyards as far as you can see in every direction and also the reasonable price. To find a room around $200 during Crush in the Valley (instead of the $300 - $600 that we have paid before) in such a great place almost felt like stealing! We plan to become regulars at the Ink House!

We enjoyed our brief stay at Ink House and found it to be a nice B&B. There was nothing overly unique or special that we had a chance to experience, but our stay was only one night. The horseshoe pit was a fun find and we enjoyed a glass of wine provided in the evening while we played. The location is very convenient, however you should be aware of the fact that trucks driving on the highway did wake us up a few times at night. We enjoyed the B&B and found the value to be pretty good. Breakfast was nice and what would be expected for a nice B&B. I will say one negative thing: we could not find a corkscrew for the life of us after hours. We ate dinner in the attic room and wanted to have wine with it, but were unable to find a corkscrew! I had to drive up the road to get one. They should have something available to the guests, or at least pointed out.

This is a gem of a B&B Inn and we couldn't have been more thrilled with finding it. We spent three days at the Ink House in February as we took a long weekend vacation to Napa to escape the cold back home. The staff was great from the moment we called -- thanks Rachel and Andrea! It's a neat historic home and set right in the middle of several great wineries and even have their own vineyard - not crammed onto a small lot on a city street like many of these are. The rooms are spotless with comfortable large beds and are decorated in antiques but still have 21st century amenities of plasma TVs, wireless internet, and a mini-bar fridge if you want to use them. The breakfasts were excellent creations by the Ink House staff -- we enjoyed the Death By Cheese egg souffle and the Artichoke Frittata the most which came with a wonderful honey maple sausage, fruit, home-baked breads, champagne, orange juice, and coffee. We booked one of the smaller rooms, and since a larger one was available we were upgraded at no charge. On one night we had Patz & Hall Winery pour at the Ink House happy hour -- we visited them the next day and bought a bottle of their Pinot. We used many of the available complimentary VIP winery passes that the Ink House provides, but the best was just walking 1 minute to the Whitehall Lane Winery where they really roll out the red carpet for Ink House guests - all charge waived, opened a premium bottle of Cab to pour for just for us, and were so friendly. This was a great find for us at reasonable prices and really let us enjoy Napa from a great home base. There is also plenty to do at the Ink House as we just lazed around one day and had fun with croquet and the regulation horseshoe pitch, explored the 1880s barn, knocked off a bottle of Heitz cab in the observatory room high atop the house, took the Ink House bikes for a ride, and finished the night off playing pool in the stone basement game room.

We stayed at the Ink House for 2 nights.The main house was full so we were put in the carriage house just behind the main house. It was fantastic,we had the whole house,which can sleep 8 to ourselves. We had a huge living room,dining room and kitchen. THis would be a great place to bring a family or a few couples for an extended stay. The room we had was downstairs with private bath which was very clean and modern,while keeping the old world charm. I would definately recommend The Ink House to anyone wanting to explore the wine country.

We booked a room at Ink House because it was one of the few less expensive rooms for the time we were planning to be their. Our expectations were low to say the least. Were we surprised. The place is quite charming, but more importantly the people were so incredibly friendly and helpful. We got there and we had arranged for a standard queen. We were upgraded to a king suite. That was such a nice thing to do. Kevin the Innkeeper spent an hour or so just chatting with us about the area, about us, him. Breakfasts were great and exceptionally filling. Which is great when your drinking wine that early in the morning. Andrea always asked whether we needed reservations for lunch/dinner and called and made whatever arrangements were needed. Overall it was a great experience. I would definitely return.

We had a great time staying at the Ink House as we scoured Napa for three days for new wines to bring home to our new wine cellar (Frank Family, Vincent Arroyo, and Alpha Omega were our three favorite new wineries from this trip). The place is a neat old mansion right in the middle of the best part of the Napa Valley for wineries. Staff was super and helped us with dinner reservations, appointments to small wineries, and spent a lot of time visiting with us during their wine and appetizers hour each night. The breakfasts were killer feasts and really got us going each morning. Room was clean, spacious and very comfortable -- although we didn't spend a lot of time there except to sleep as Napa is such a great place! Best thing was the reasonable pricing of about $200 a night for the room -- hard to find anything under $300 per night in the fall so we felt very fortunate to find such a great place.
