Loved out stay. Room was a little small but very comfy. The inn is lovely. Perfect location for walking through town. Breakfast was great! Our host was very helpful giving us discount coupons and helping to find places to visit. We left relaxed and wanting to stay for the week. Loved having a little port and chocolates before bed- very nice touch. We are already talking about coming back.

In late April, 2011, we had a group of 8 come to the Brannan Cottage Inn for a celebration. Doug, Judy and Pinot (Wuff!) were excellent hosts. The gave us ideas on where to taste wine, eat and sights to see. The Breakfasts were fantastic. The Eggs Santa Fe were a BIG YUM! The Patio and Lawn areas were perfect to unwind drink some wine after a day of tasting and sitting out at night after dinner. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Private Bathrooms. We had an old claw foot tub. Grounds were very well kept. Walking distance to all the restaurants in town and the CalMart. Staying at the Brannan Cottage Inn is what staying in Napa is meant to be.

My Husband & I stayed 2 nights over Easter Weekend 2011. The Inn is a lovely property & Doug & Judy did a great job making us feel "at home". They're located within walking distance of Calisotga's downtown, so you don't need your car to find a great dinner. Breakfast was wonderful and we really enjoyed our stay. I'd recommend Brannan's to anyone interested in staying in this area.
