Property Description
Located in the heart of downtown Merced, CA on Main and M Street, the hotel is housed in the former 19th century historic hotel of the same name and is within walking distance of area entertainment, shopping and retail. The 114 guestrooms capture the frontier spirit of earl California and the American West. The hotel includes a historically-preserved wing and newly-constructed wing with three one-bedroom suites, and nine junior suites, as well as corner rooms offering prime views of Main and M streets. Inspired by the golden warmth of the valley, the guest rooms use natural, hand-crafted materials and textures to evoke the surrounding landscape and draw the outside in. Architectural elements inspired by the 19th century train depot that underscores the history of Merced as a transportation hub and artwork celebrating the agricultural and cultural traditions of the region add the finishing touches to accommodations.

Loved our stay here! Elegant old hotel with updated everything...but still retains a classic charm. Room was comfortable and clean with all new fittings and fixtures. (I was kind of hoping for a more antique/vintage/original feel, but once we were settled in, I appreciated the modernity of all the appointments). Cocktail from the bar was fantastic! The seating areas off the lobby were comfortable and pleasant to use. Dinner at the restaurant was elegant. Breakfast at the cafe was delicious (coffee and savory pastry). Staff were all friendly, helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend.

會想再去住的飯店 雖然在小鎮內但是是一家非常舒適乾淨的旅館,中庭花園可以讓我們家人在晚餐後自在的坐在一起聊天喝飲料!服務的人員很親切! 唯一的缺點是附近的火車鳴笛聲太大聲,且時間到很晚!
