Top Nevada City Hotel Reviews

Northern Queen Inn

Northern Queen Inn

8/10 Good
"Our room appeared to be an accessible queen bed room. Oddly the bathroom was nearly 40% of the size of the total room, although there was no bidet or soaking tub to use the extra space, just a standard small tub/shower on one side and a short walk across the room was the toilet. The grounds and exterior of the hotel were nicely appointed and well-kept, but the room itself was fairly spartan with a bed, dresser, bedside tables, a large areas of empty space. Would encourage filling rooms with antiques or additional furniture. Nice that they served breakfast, but no apparent vegan options, other than whole fresh fruit."

Gold Miners Inn Grass Valley, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice boutique hotel. Very comfortable rooms and the staff at the front desk were very nice. When we got to the hotel a little early, our room wasn't ready. We walked through the convention area and the lady from the front desk tracked us down to let us know the room was now available. Good breakfast in the morning."
