Room Request! Bardessono
by Natasha Wolff | April 10, 2014 11:20 am
Situated in downtown Yountville behind Thomas Keller[1]‘s Bouchon restaurant, the modern 62-room Bardessono hotel[2] offers a unique option in the heart of Wine Country. Using wood from salvaged trees, stone blocks from an old wine cellar, geothermal heating and solar panels, the award-winning resort is an LEED Platinum certified property that strives to be as green as possible.
On the grounds, the hotel boasts a renowned farm-to-table restaurant and bar (Lucy[3]), a luxe indoor/outdoor spa and a rooftop lap pool. Yet the best part of the resort is the central location: You can walk or bike to many vineyards[4] (Hope and Grace Tasting Room, Domaine Chandon and Cornerstone Cellars) and restaurants like Bottega, The French Laundry and Redd without having to worry about driving. All in all, it’s a perfect weekend (or longer getaway) whether you’re East- or West-Coast based. Below, Kini Sanborn, Bardessono’s Director of Marketing, breaks down her favorite aspects about the property for DuJour.
The main building’s courtyard
The most in-demand room in the hotel:
“Guests love our King Steam Spa Suites.”
What makes it so special?
“They have a beautiful glass-enclosed steam shower that walks out to an outdoor shower. They’re located throughout the property on the first level. Alternatively, we have a few rooms with two beds—our King/Queen Steam Spa Suites that guests request frequently.”
The bathroom inside a suite
Celebrity guests:
“We never talk about which celebrities have stayed with us as we greatly respect their privacy.”
Rate per night:
“The range for our Steam Spa Suites is $650 to $1,050. The King/Queen Steam Spa Suites range from $950 to $1,350.”
The exterior pool deck
Your personal favorite:
“No. 413 is a great King Spa Suite, as is No. 115.”
Because…
“Because it allows guests to receive the full Bardessono experience. Each suite offers open living space, a luxurious bathroom with a double vanity and soaking tub, gas fireplace and a private patio with an outdoor shower looking out on unique views of Napa Valley. This room is designed to double as an in-room spa for guests who choose to have their treatments in private. While the property’s sustainable design is meant to age and change with time, each guestroom is a space for timeless indulgence spent in Napa Valley.”
A private patio
Fun fact:
Leave the car parked and get around by hoping on one of the hotel’s carbon-fiber bicycles.
