Found near a tangle of grapevines in one of California's most breathtaking regions is the Asian-inspired Gaige House, an exceptional boutique resort set on three lush acres in the heart of Sonoma County. This wine country retreat offers 23 soothing chambers plus a cluster of zen-inspired suites, where you can peacefully soak in a granite tub and meditate in the privacy of your own Japanese garden. Named to the Condé Nast Traveler Gold List as one of the "World's Best Places to Stay", rooms at the Gaige House take a minimalist approach allowing guests to enjoy a clutter-free getaway. Each day starts with a gourmet breakfast and concludes with evening wine and cheese pairings. The inn also features a heated swimming pool that can be enjoyed year round.

Gaige House beautiful Asian influence throughout the “House” and grounds. Delicious breakfast available every morning with all the fixings for a mimosa. Outdoor area overlooks the pool and has a firepit for those chilly mornings. They also host a wine and cheese tasting every evening from 4:00 to 5:30. Gaige House King room has A/C and a fan. Good water pressure and jacuzzi tub and cookies available every day. Convenient parking on the premises. We also scheduled a couple massage while we were there and it was a great start to our day.

After time with family, we stayed here a few days. Lovely boutique hotel with a pool. The room was nice and modern! Daily breakfast was included as was early evening wine, cheese and crackers. The hotel was a few doors from a couple of really incredible restaurants! The wineries were a short drive away. I would come back here!

Gaige House is incredible! The building itself is beautiful as are the rooms in the outbuildings (we stayed in a suite in a separate building). The staff were welcoming and friendly, as well as very efficient -- we mentioned as we were leaving that the tv wasn't working, and when we came back later that day it had been fixed. There are terrific amenities available: a free and healthy breakfast in the morning, a wine and cheese hour with delicious snacks every afternoon, wine and sake available all day, outdoor space with a fire, a pool and hot tub (we were there in January so it was a little cool to swim in the mornings and evenings when we were around). We splurged on a suite, which was amazing. The bathroom had a huge soaking tub and two-person shower, and the room itself was beautiful and comfortable, with a gas fire. We were very pleasantly surprised by a free mini-bottle of sake in the room fridge! Not all the rooms are this luxurious but everything is beautifully put together.

Gaige House is great location. First visit, we absolutely love and enjoy the stay in Sonoma area. The front office lady, Pamela, was incredibly friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay! Truly grateful! She is a super star, make the stay experience more memorable.

First night back at a place my wife and I spent several big anniversaries in the past. So excited to arrive for our 34th anniversary. Disappointing is a word I never thought I’d use for the Gaige House based on our past 3-4 stays. Mildew in the shower, a gift of a cheap Spanish cava priced at $8.99 (I know I shouldn’t look a gift horse in the mouth), spa covered in leaves and pine needles (had to scoop out by hand because the skimmer tool was filthy. Pool was the same - like it hadn’t been cleaned in days. Cheap robes/slippers that an upscale Super 8 might offer. Reception cheese/wine was good (not great) and the room quite basic. I hope the breakfast is top notch like it’s been in the past. But already we’ve decided we’re not coming back. Sadly, a Holiday Inn or Hampton would be a better value - and cleaner. Four Sisters is the current owner) and needs to invest to get this place back to a gorgeous Sonoma/Glenn Ellen destination.

I just wanted to let Luxury Link know how pleased we were with our recent stay at Gaige House in Sonoma. The facilities couldn't have been more relaxing and beautiful. The staff was incredibly friendly, hospitable and knowledgeable. Food was delicious (fresh baked muffins every morning and fresh baked cookies in the afternoon and evening - doesn't get much better than that!). And the other guests were easy to meet and talk with. All around perfect experience. Will definitely recommend it to friends and will likely return again next time we're in California.
