Top Forest Knolls Hotel Reviews

Sheraton Sonoma Wine Country Petaluma

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel. Stayed for a birthday celebration. Didn’t eat at the hotel but spent some time at a very nice and reasonably priced bar. Hit tub was small but not crowded. We had harbor view and it was beautiful."

Quality Inn Petaluma - Sonoma

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was a surprise: eggs, bacon, sausage, waffles with syrup, yoghurt, hard boiled eggs, toast, pastries. You get the picture. Fantastic!"

SureStay Plus Hotel by Best Western Point Richmond

8/10 Good

"I booked this place on the cheap. It wasn’t as bad as a lot of the negative reviews made it out. Cleaner and quieter than I expected. Breakfast was standard, and staff did their job. Folks- you get what you pay for. This was a cheap one night option for me, passing through. I wouldn’t want my wife staying here alone, but the overall experience wasn’t crazy. Richmond is a pretty funky place, so expect a funky vibe. If you’re used to other BW hotels, this isn’t it! Cost is half, amenities are half rate, but ghetto is double. I wouldn’t book again, but I wouldn’t dissuade anyone from booking for a cheap night passing through."

The Evergreen

"This motel was nice for my stay! The staff was as helpful and friendly. I recommend it!"
