Calistoga Hot Springs Tours

The large building was a maze, and I found myself lost several times. The staff would tell me where to go, but then a door would be locked and I had to backtrack. I put the “Do Not Disturb” tag on my door, but the cleaning lady still knocked, and I had to tell her several times that I was busy. Hotel room was average at best.

Nothing special about the property. It was quiet. Staff was cordial. We were notified that housekeeping wouldn't be coming to our room daily due to the nunber of days we stayed. We checked in Thursday and checked out Sunday. However, she did state if we needed anything to call the front desk. At check-in, we were told there would be a $100 a day resort fee and a hold for incidentals totaling $1300. The vacation was booked and paid in full, the only amount due at the property indicated on the receipt was $136 due at the property. She did mention that the charge would drop off after we checked out. We reserved a studio but it was too small. The tv was mounted on the wall in the kitchen area next to the microwave, there was a sofa that seemed too large for the space and a small dining table with 2 chairs. We spoke with the front desk and she was kind enough to move us to a 1-bedroom which gave us the space we needed. I also mentioned to her the $1300 charge, showed her the email I received and she assured me the charge would drop off. The grounds were average but some of the buildings needed pressure washing as well as the sidewalks and parking lot. Two 50 -minute, $180 massages ended up costing $490 after addiotnal fees and gratuity were added, which seems like the extra fees would have been included in the resort fee but the massage was good. I would probably choose another resort that offered more amenities to justify the costs & fees

Our check did not go as smoothly as we would have liked it took a bit to have a room ready. Once checking in another guest interrupted our delayed check in and the front desk attendant addressed the other guest before completing our check in process. I also learned that our family friend had ordered a fruit and cheese platter that never came to our room. Uncertain if it was sent to our other room, since we had been updated but that should have been noted.
