Situated in the heart of Napa Valley, the hotel gives you access to more than 400 wineries, including some of the finest in the world that call St. Helena home. Sip your way around those in the immediate vicinity such as Merryvale, Clif Family, Charles Krug and, of course, Beringer Estate. Join a bicycle tour that pairs wine tasting with outdoor adventure. Or wine and dine on a journey of discovery through the scenic landscape aboard the vintage Napa Valley Wine Train.
