The finest boutique hotel in Yountville — LEED Platinum certified but not in a way that compromises the luxury. Geothermal heating, solar energy, and a living roof are invisible from the guest experience, which is a serene and beautifully designed in the valley. 62 rooms, a serious spa, a strong restaurant, and a quiet garden compound one block from the Yountville dining strip.
Why We Chose It
Bardessono is both the most sustainably built luxury hotel in the US and one of the most comfortable places to stay in Yountville — a LEED Platinum certified property powered entirely by geothermal and solar energy, with 62 rooms and suites featuring soaking tubs, fireplaces, and private garden terraces. The spa uses in-room treatment technology where tables can be reconfigured in the room itself. The location in Yountville is ideal: The French Laundry is a 5-minute walk, Bouchon and Bistro Jeanty are nearby, and Domaine Chandon's gardens are accessible by foot. The design is clean California modern — warm wood, stone, and natural materials. Lucy Restaurant & Bar is a solid hotel dining option.
What Stands Out
- LEED Platinum — the most sustainably built luxury hotel in the United States
- Geothermal and solar powered — the most environmentally forward major hotel in Napa
- 5-minute walk to The French Laundry
- In-room spa treatment technology — unique in Napa Valley hotels
- Clean California modern design with private garden terraces
