Four Seasons Resort Napa Valley

Beautiful property but far from everything which makes enjoying the area more difficult than with other properties. For an expensive property, they find a way to nickel and dime on everything and to overcharge to the point of making the experience laughable and unenjoyable. I ordered a basic breakfast of eggs, potatoes, protein, and toast, which cost $30. I asked for the english muffin as my toast and the hash brown as my potato, and the staff up charged me on both of those items. The small bottle of pre-mixed cocktail in the room cost $100. The resort was always looking for an opportunity to squeeze more money at the cost of enjoying the experience. Hotel staff were also too attentive at times, making things unenjoyable. Pool staff woke me up on a couple occasions to ask if I needed anything.

Expectations should be high when visiting a Four Seasons, but since my boyfriend convinced me that we were heading to Indian Springs in Calistoga, I quietly pocketed any hopes for a five star weekend as we drove farther and farther away from our caviar lunch at Auberge. Entering the subtle stunning beauty of the Four Seasons, my eye did not catch the monument sign, and it wasn't until we entered the reception area where two glasses of wine were brought by someone wearing the FS logo that I secretly fell back in love with him. Reminiscent of Calistoga Ranch, (before it tragically burned), the architects of this resort have honored the land in a collaboration with nature that is the foundation for quite possibly the most peaceful and authentic luxury experience in Napa. The restaurants, staff, rooms, and views are all exceptionally curated. Many will come for the draw of the Michelin starred Auro, where we were lucky enough to have reservations, but canceled as the allure of an extra hour floating in the pool won over. Our dinner at Truss as the sun set was a five star experience in itself, with special thanks to Carlo the sommelier. Our Sunday morning spa treatments were set in the monumental stone building, Spa Talisa. After only three minutes into my massage, I asked myself how can a chef, or a sommelier become celebrities in this town, but not the star of the this immense building on the property? I mentioned this après-treatment to my boyfriend as we sipped champagne overlooking the vineyard, and a staff member who overheard me confided that Michael is the recipient of many similar comments. Bottom line, he needs to be Napa's celebrity masseuse. Book now, thank me later. We'll be back FS Napa.

From the start of the reservation to the planning of events and the not making up the rooms until we called at 430 nothing has gone well . Decided to stay in for my birthday and have dinner . Burnt bread, dry pasta , bad fruit . People here are very good at one thing “saying I am sorry “ This place gets a zero .

This is absolutely my favorite hotel to stay at in Napa Valley. Every detail - including the bespoke hospitality, in-room amenities, poolside service, and comfy beds - is just incredible. From a casual dinner and drinks at Truss to a seven-course Michelin meal at Auro, this resort has everything you need for a restorative (and delicious) getaway to wine country. I cannot wait to come back again and again.
