Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
It had been 3 years since my last visit. Property has deteriorated. Toilet ran continuously. Heater did not respond to temp changes. No instructions on how to use TV.
Nice place; good location. Spacious room. Walking distance to wineries. Unfortunately, I had to listen to two people watching wrestling on the television. If their voices were less “booming” and they didn’t talk about every move that was made. It might’ve been OK. Given this, it was hard for me to go to sleep.
Efficient check in, nice property. Sadly someone did some minor damage to my vehicle overnight, but otherwise a pleasant stay, wouldn’t hesitate to return.

Lovely room with amenities we prioritize like a fridge.
We were coming to town for an event and didn't want to drive home after so we decided to find a room for the night. We knew being in St Helena/Napa we'd probably pay about $500 /night.
When I stumbled upon $200/night I was leery but after reading reviews I became optimistic and booked a room. We ended up arriving into town earlier than check-in so we called ahead and asked if early check-in was possible. The receptionist said yes!
We arrived about 1 1/2 hr early. Our room was ready and check-in was very smooth. Receptionist was very pleasant.
It appears renovations are taking place and we assumed that's why our room was so inexpensive for the area.
We knew based on reviews the rooms were 'older' but as long as it was clean we didn't care.
Our room seemed fairly updated with newer renovations. The bathroom was updated and the interior walls seemed too. The furniture was nice but most importantly, the bed was very comfortable.
We enjoyed our short stay very much. We would definitely recommend and would stay again.
Still here but love this place. You were recommended by more than one colleague and I will recommend you also!

Sweet little motel .
El Bonita Motel is a little gem in St . Helena.an old fashioned motel updated and surprisingly lovely with a pool , hot tub , sauna and little seating areas situated around the property . The rooms are clean and the bed exceptionally comfortable.
Just what we were looking for. Don’t let the 2 star motel rating fool you. It’s a bargain, great location and very clean. We were wine tasting in the area with friends and we all stayed here…pool and spa were perfect, continental breakfast too!
