Weekend wine getaway, love cary house
Brian, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Historic and Comfortable.
We love the Cary House! Needed a late last minute stay when our well pump kicked it and we wanted a hot shower. Rooms are cute and unique, hot water pressure was fantastic- the whole hotel has a ton of character! Great location too- excellent food and coffee options right out the front door.

Repeat Visitor
A historic hotel, excellent proximity to walkable restaurants and shops. I enjoy the two separate bedrooms for my family. I would have been happier with a less-saggy mattress (bed comfort weighs heavily in my ratings). Bathroom and linens were clean. Shower squealed during use. This is an excellent and affordable waypoint between Tahoe and the SF Bay.

It’s an historical building with a lot of character. My husband and I stay there every time we pass through…we love the location. It is so close to Apple Hill and it’s half way to Tahoe. Great place to stay for a weekend.

Historic Hotel
It’s a historic hotel in the old town of Placerville. The staff were very friendly. We had parking for our car. The bed wasn’t very comfortable but the room was quiet. It was great to be in walking distance of shops and wonderful restaurants!

Brian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice old hotel with alot of character and charm. Great location and at a fair affordable price. When checking in the girl at the desk never looked up, said anything to us and sat there painting her nails. After what seemed like a long awkward length of time a second girl stepped in and checked us in.
Wayne, 1-night trip

Morgan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We love staying here, although it is an old, historic building so it’s not super comfy. The beds could use updating, but the area is great. Not many amenities, but it’s easy to drive to Apple Hill.

Great location at great price
Laura, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location is amazing, and the elevator is the best! The bed and furniture were super uncomfortable, though. I still think it’s the best place to stay in Placerville because of its location and old charm.
Vanessa, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This place is a historic hotel so it does not have many of the amenities as most hotel so if you like old this is a place for you.
