The location couldn't be better for this little B and B two blocks off the main square on a quiet stretch of North St. The staff are great and for an old house there's surprisingly little noise through the walls. The daily wine pours were most welcome. But it is an old house, full of creaks and ready for some refurbishing.

Great charming place to stay, the building has an old Victorian feel to it. Great decor and location, you can walk around downtown within 5 minutes. The Tower West room has a huge jacuzzi. The breakfast is complementary and is made fresh in house and is really good. We got fresh yogurt fruit parfait (hand made, not from a packet) and freshly prepared omelettes with cheese, bacon and Apples (!).

My friend and I really enjoyed our time at Camellia Inn. It’s a Bea pink inn surrounded by white and various pink colored camellias. Our rooms were comfortable and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. Before arriving we were able to book wines tasting and dinner reservations. I highly recommend Little Saint, the second story.

It’s a beautiful property, but the room left a little to be desired. Some Moldy grout, ceiling water damage. Carpet a bit grungy. The worst was the noisy heat pump ( I am assuming the constant gurgling was from that) it kept me awake. Breakfast was good though and a great location, near downtown.

Our spacious suite had a very comfortable king bed, nicely furnished with character antiques, very clean and quiet - including the AC. Everything was perfect including our morning breakfasts. We slept well for our two nights and enjoyed the many Healdsburg restaurants, cafes and wine shops within a 5 minute walk from the Inn.

The Camellia Inn is quaint and lovely. We were pleasantly surprised that we had never noticed this gem on our other visits to Healdsburg. We were there celebrating my niece's 21st birthday with some wine tasting. The free tastings offered by the Wilson Wineries were a plus, as we ventured out for two days. The light breakfast was lovely as was the wine offered upon arrival and freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. After a long day of traveling, we relaxed in the sitting room with a glass of wine and marveled at the home built in 1869. The neighborhood is incredibly walkable and we were able to get to at least 3 of the Wilson wineries plus one the other two of which my daughter is a member. We would definitely stay here again. The pillows and bed were comfortable, and the sitting area and bathroom were lovely. The room was very quiet and we had a fabulous time.

It’s in a 19th century building with a lot of character in a quiet block only a few blocks from Healdsburg Square. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Included is a delicious breakfast. It’s unusual to ha be a pool and parking lot associated with a historical inn so close to the city center. Lots of wonderful restaurants, wine tasting rooms, and specialty shops are within a few blocks.

Looking for a super convenient location to discover Healdsburg at a historic period B and B? Try Camellia Inn with it’s anytime tea and coffee service and freshly baked cookies, along with freshly prepared breakfast. Only two short blocks to Healdsburg Plaza and all the local shops, restaurants and tasting rooms. Note to innkeeper: The broken and twisted shade in the Royalty Room needs attention. Overall a great stay.
