This is a well maintained , refreshed quiet spot for a very comfortable rest. Good mattress, windows that open or AC if you want it. Nice size rooms for all your stuff, good lighting and plugs if you need to work. Nice bits and pieces of thoughtful extras that other big chain hotels are no longer doing.
Clearly a small property that is doing well from the hard work being put into it by the family that runs it. I will be staying again!

Some places offer you a room for the night, but others make you feel genuinely welcomed, cared for and valued. The Best Western in Corte Madera is most definitely the latter!
From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by a team whose positivity, energy, warmth and generosity were simply outstanding. Having arrived after a very long flight, I was understandably exhausted, and despite being much earlier than the usual check-in time, the team went out of their way to accommodate me.

Lovely lodge hotel in the middle of a historic nature park. We booked the suite which was perfect for the three of us. Lovely little details such as local coffee, overall great for the price. Be aware though there was no aircon so when we arrived the room was really hot. And although coffee and fruit are offered (free!) there is no breakfast although they have a small shop you can buy items from.

We were a bit worried when we arrived that the area outside the hotel was crazy busy and full of loud cars, bikes and music… but we had read a top tip to request a courtyard room and so actually our room was super quiet and relaxing and a nice break from the chaos of fisherman’s wharf.
Restaurant breakfast was delicious but there’s also a latam coffee shop on the corner of the block directly behind the hotel who do amazing pastries.
