Best Hotels near Helen Putnam Regional Park: Windsor Drive Trailhead, Sonoma County

Love this hotel great deal, nice rooms, and amazing bathroom shower and cool bluetooth mirror.

🛎️ Excellent customer service. Fast check-in! 🛏️ Clean rooms 🏊 Nice swimming pool

The breakfast is simple but the quality is very high. The room is small but very clean. There is an iron hanger brand shower gel shampoo body lotion. The environment is very style and special. The fireplace in the hall is very lively and has a strong price and is invincible.

Staff is very nice, environment is great, bed is very comfortable

A last-minute getaway as the friends we had planned to stay with came down with Covid and we had to make a decision about where to stay. We are Marriott Bonvoy members and rarely ever stay at Sheratons, but thought we'd give this a go. Sigh. Not quite up to Marriott standards I'm afraid.... We got a king suite with a balcony that was supposed to be a marina view, but looked out over the adjacent ”marsh” and freeway/railroad track. Here's the good: very comfortable bed, bathtub (most hotels are ripping these out and replacing with walk-in showers - I love a real tub), short drive to downtown Petaluma which is cute with upcoming restaurants, coffee houses and quirky shops, staff friendly; the location is easy access off 101 and good for a base to explore Sonoma County. The not-so-good: the hotel lobby is freezing cold so not a place we could hang out, the fire was never lit the whole weekend; it's so cold that the staff behind the check-in desk had their own space heaters on the counter blasting hot air at themselves to stay warm! The pool is tiny, the photos of this place make it look more like a resort, but it's really a hotel bolted on to the end of a mall/offices as part of the marina development. You can't walk into downtown - it's a hike along very busy roads with industrial office buildings. The new train line (yay - public transport!) is just across the river adjacent to the freeway and is noisy as you'd expect. We walked into the marsh and around the nature loop - it was OK...nothing special, really - didn't see much in the way of birdlife. I imagine it gets stinky in the summer! In general, the hotel could do with a solid refurb - it feels dated. I think we would have actually been better off at the Courtyard TBH.

Clean and convient it was a great place to spend the night arriving late from Mazatlan on Alaska Airlines at the Sonoma Airport

We first became acquainted with Guerneville in a search of great places close to Santa Rosa. We would be in the SR area for a few days for business and wanted to see what Guerneville was all about. We fell in love!! The Cottages on River Road were the perfect setting for our few days in Sonoma Wine Country!! Surrounded by wineries and amazing restaurants, markets, and breweries that have been there for decades, we felt like we entered Heaven. In fact at one point we looked at one another and said ”Did we just get to Heaver?” The grounds of The Cottages were pristine, and welcoming with many areas to sit and relax and enjoy the perfect weather! Our room was better than the photos online! Deanne, the manager went above and beyond in every way!! She was so helpful with basic recommendations in and around Guerneville, and went a step further with secrets that made us feel like locals! We were looking at homes while we were there as well and were working with a realtor, but Deanne knew of a couple of homes that our realtor did not know of, and one of them was a property we had seen online and loved! Everyone there was required and gladly complied with COVID precautions and after we left we realized we had not been able to feel that relaxed outside of our home since March!! It truly was a relaxing and rejuvenating stay and we can't wait to get back!!
