Hotel Yountville

A luxury boutique hotel deep in the illustrious Napa Valley, Hotel Yountville combines farmhouse chic with ultra-contemporary touches, set among stacked Napa river rocks and timber beams in the charmingly walkable town of Yountville. Expect delightful field stone-framed fireplaces and sliding white farmhouse-style doors in even the lowest accommodation level – here, that still means the height of luxury, with four poster beds, plush marble bathtubs and a complimentary minibar. The suites are particularly spectacular, though, with blonde timber beams and brushed wood furnishings setting the scene for vaulted ceilings, outdoor patios, a two person spa tub and steam showers. 

Outside, expect an immaculate tree-lined pool with luxurious cushioned cabanas, alongside the exquisite spa where two couples spa suites feature Swiss showers and double hydrotherapy tubs to soak in before indulgent treatments. Of course, it's wine that steals the show here, showcased in the hotel's exclusive tasting rooms, with vineyards on the doorstep – and they're more than happy to organise tours suited to your specific taste, with chauffeurs on hand to drive you. Precede it with cycling among the rolling hills and vineyards, hiking wooded trails and taking in the landscape with hot air balloon tours. Then, come evening, head to the charming private dining room, all dark wood and luxe furnishings, for an exquisite farm-to-table menu, or a walk through the endearing town affords Michelin-star restaurants such as the renowned 3-starred French Laundry.
