Charming perfection in the heart of downtown

The hotel was charming and full of character which was wanted. It didn’t dissappoint from a comfort level either. The bed and pillows were so comfortable we had amazing sleep. The location of this hotel is perfection. You never have to drive unless you want to check out the state parks. Restaurants and bars and shops are steps from the main entrance.

Go-to get away!

I love this hotel! Been staying here since before the renovation! The staff are super sweet and the vibes are cozy and vintage. The rooms are quite nice - much better than your average hotel. The restaurant has great food and the bar is perfect. They also allow dogs. We love coming to Nevada City in all seasons and will continue to stay at the National.

Not what you’d expect.

I won’t go back. The room was in the back, by the back door that was very busy. Bed was small. Walls were thin. You have to get all the way into the shower to turn it on, hoping it won’t be to cold or to hot. And worst of all there was a blue light near the ceiling that kept strobing all night.

Loved it! Will return.

A gorgeous historic hotel centrally located to shopping and restaurants. The hotel bar and restaurant were excellent. We opted for the King Studio and had a nice sized room. Others in our party had small rooms with queen sized beds. We will definitely will return.
