Napa Valley visitors who want to be walking distance from downtown's delectable wineries and restaurants will love 1801 First's location. History buffs will appreciate the handiwork of William Corlett, the architect behind many of Napa's buildings on the National Register of Historic Places. And anyone who appreciates an extra-friendly bed-and-breakfast where guests kick back under ivy-covered trellises during wine hour each night will feel right at home here.

We spent five nights at 1801 First in March and we can't say enough good things about it. Carrie, Blair, Laura and Jim were all amazing people and the they and the Inn met our every need. We really enjoyed the excellent daily breakfasts and the daily wine hour in the garden was perfect for relaxing and meeting other travelers. Everyone was terrific in providing great recommendations for dining and wineries. The location was perfect as well, just a short walk to the downtown restaurants, but our room was nice and quiet. Coffee and cookies were always available and even some port to finish off the evening! If we are ever in the area again, we will certainly be back!

My stay at 1801 First Luxury Inn was absolutely incredible. Napa is always a treat, but this place made the trip even more special. I already can’t wait to go back. I stayed here recently for a birthday weekend with my girlfriend, and we had such an amazing time. The room was beautiful, comfortable, and full of thoughtful details that made the experience feel truly luxurious. The owner, Blair, was extremely attentive and welcoming. At the end of our stay, we realized we had left behind a phone charger, glasses, and a shirt—clearly we had too much fun that weekend! Blair went above and beyond by shipping everything back to us at no charge. Thank you so much for the outstanding hospitality. This place is a gem, and I can’t wait to return!

WE LOVE THIS PLACE. We have stayed multiple times in different rooms. Super clean. Chef made breakfast, owners are super layed back and friendly. 10/10. Pricey but worth it.

What is there not to love about 1801 First? The owner, Carrie, is quite involved in the day to day activities and goes out of her way to meet each guest and get to know them. Her staff is just as friendly. Their chef prepares an exquisite breakfast daily, usually with 3 choices for the main course, accompanied by freshly baked pastries/muffins, a fresh bowl of fruit, and juices/coffee/tea. Carrie has thankfully kept the original charm of this beautifully crafted home. Designed in 1903, she has modernized it to create a luxurious atmosphere, with a choice of rooms inside of the home or cottages just outside of the home. She has kept the home's original charm, allowing you to slowly drift back in time within the storied walls, enjoying the craftsmanship of the original woodwork and magnificent architecture. You are walking distance to downtown Napa and there is on-site parking in their parking lot and also on the street - both are very safe. She provides a wine hour in the late afternoon / early evening and there's always a plate of yummy cookies on the breakfast bar. If you're looking for first class and personalized service, beautiful accommodations, fabulous breakfasts, a convenient location, and a magical experience in Napa Valley, you've found the right place!

We love staying at 1801 First Luxury Inn! It is our number one choice when visiting Napa. Heartfelt hospitality welcomes us every time! The staff there is our favorite- Carrie, Blair, Laura, Lori, Louisa, Maria, Jim, and Chef! They are all amazing!!! The rooms are delightful! The fireplace creates a warm and inviting atmosphere where we like to relax after a day of wine tasting. Wine hour is fun each evening and the breakfast meals are delicious. The inn is lovely - decorated with a fall/Halloween theme. It could not be in a more convenient location...walking distance from wonderful downtown Napa and Oxbow Market. It was great to be back and we are already looking forward to our next visit at 1801.
