It's generally difficult to find a good upper mid-range hotel in the USA. 2 and 3 star, yes, but meh. Then a big gap to 5 star and massive prices. But Hotel Ynez sits just nicely, a genuinely boutique hotel with a quirky feel, bang in the middle of wine country. Only improvement I'd suggest is maybe a centre-piece bar, but not much else. Nice place.

Super clean, super friendly with a well maintained pool and hot tub. Free onsite parking was a huge plus. The room is basic but has everything you need. Housekeeping staff and maintenance staff were all really nice and gave a really pleasant vibe to the place. The complimentary breakfast is a nice touch, including fresh pastries from the famous bakery nearby alongside fruit pots and coffee, etc. Having travelled throughout California on our holiday, this was by far the best and most convenient...

Solvang is a little quirky town and the Hamlet Inn is the perfect place to stay for the night. I stayed in Solvang for the night with the family while travelling South. There is lots to discover in the town for kids, and the proximity of the hotel makes everything walkable. The rooms were very spacious and clean, and I loved the remote check-in as we arrived fairly late in the evening.

Clean room with decent shower and air conditioning thrown in. Chap at front desk was very friendly. Comfy beds and ample free parking. McDonald’s within spitting distance for breakfast. Free crushed ice machine in lobby. Overall very good value for money.
