Found near a tangle of grapevines in one of California's most breathtaking regions is the Asian-inspired Gaige House, an exceptional boutique resort set on three lush acres in the heart of Sonoma County. This wine country retreat offers 23 soothing chambers plus a cluster of zen-inspired suites, where you can peacefully soak in a granite tub and meditate in the privacy of your own Japanese garden. Named to the Condé Nast Traveler Gold List as one of the "World's Best Places to Stay", rooms at the Gaige House take a minimalist approach allowing guests to enjoy a clutter-free getaway. Each day starts with a gourmet breakfast and concludes with evening wine and cheese pairings. The inn also features a heated swimming pool that can be enjoyed year round.

From start to finish, highest marks I can give. The staff could not have been more gracious, kind and helpful. The grounds and rooms were beautiful, luxurious and peaceful. The bathroom alone with that big gorgeous tub made me want to stay longer. Don’t miss the pool area! Our stay was filled with nice touches…the wine and cheese evening, the available free beverages (water, tea, sake, port), fresh baked cookies (really good!) and a filling and delicious breakfast complete with mimosas. This place is a lovely escape in every way. We’ll definitely be back!

My wife and I came here for my birthday and picked this location as a last minute find. The venue is excellent with its rooms, amenities and staff. I will not reveal all the other benefits, but perhaps you can call the hotel to learn more. We enjoyed the one night stay. Our room was ready before check in and they immediately texted us around 1pm (check in is at 4pm). Furthermore, the hotel has a very relaxed indoor/outdoor ambience, daily 430-530 wine tasting with hors d'oeuvres, with some great wines from the vitners around the area. Outdoor heated pool, with a yoga den, and a jacuzzi accompany a few outdoor decks that people can enjoy with its outdoor fireplaces. The venue also has some great selection of ports and sake as well. Breakfast is quite nice as well. We would stay here for the centralized Sonoma experience. The venue is not too far a drive away from many places, a few parks, observatories and the lke. The hotel manager (she is great and forgot her name) and Yuri have been quite helpful. They said, even after check out, one can stay and enjoy the amenities if they wanted too. Great choice of towels/linens/toiletries. We did recommend this place to our friends on Face/gram.

What an amazing little spot! Right after I booked our reservation, guest services called to see if we had any questions or needed help with any bookings. Upon my request, they emailed me a list of wineries and restaurants that they recommend in the area. My husband and I spent Mothers' Day weekend here and had the perfect stay! From beginning to end, the service was top notch! We were greeted by Pam, and another lovely woman (forgot her name) with big friendly smiles and complimentary sparkling wine! They gave us a quick tour of the grounds and showed us the lovely lounge where they had complimentary sake, port, and cookies for all their guests. At 4:30pm they had a little happy hour with a beautiful charcuterie board and 4 wines to choose from. They have a nice little complimentary breakfast as well! Our room (The Gaige House King) was comfortable and had this amazing oversized jetted tub. They provided the most comfortable robes I've ever worn, and the beds were pretty comfy too! The pool area and jacuzzi were well kept and the perfect place to unwind. We were also walking distance to the Glen Ellen Star, a Michelin recommended restaurant, with fantastic food! We definitely highly recommend staying here and look forward to our next opportunity to stay again

Gaige House beautiful Asian influence throughout the “House” and grounds. Delicious breakfast available every morning with all the fixings for a mimosa. Outdoor area overlooks the pool and has a firepit for those chilly mornings. They also host a wine and cheese tasting every evening from 4:00 to 5:30. Gaige House King room has A/C and a fan. Good water pressure and jacuzzi tub and cookies available every day. Convenient parking on the premises. We also scheduled a couple massage while we were there and it was a great start to our day.

After time with family, we stayed here a few days. Lovely boutique hotel with a pool. The room was nice and modern! Daily breakfast was included as was early evening wine, cheese and crackers. The hotel was a few doors from a couple of really incredible restaurants! The wineries were a short drive away. I would come back here!

I just wanted to let Luxury Link know how pleased we were with our recent stay at Gaige House in Sonoma. The facilities couldn't have been more relaxing and beautiful. The staff was incredibly friendly, hospitable and knowledgeable. Food was delicious (fresh baked muffins every morning and fresh baked cookies in the afternoon and evening - doesn't get much better than that!). And the other guests were easy to meet and talk with. All around perfect experience. Will definitely recommend it to friends and will likely return again next time we're in California.
