The hotel provided an excellent base for my exploration of Point Reyes National Seashore and Bodega Bay. My room at Tomales Hotel was spotless, sunny, and welcoming. Evenings were very quiet, and I slept well. Thank you!

Well kept and clean. During our stay it was self check-in and check-out with clear instructions. Good option if you don’t anticipate needing assistance from the staff.

This hotel stands all by itself in Tomales so it's hard to miss. It's a well-maintained property that is not staffed. You interact with the property manager through phone. Initially, I struggled to figure out how to access my room. There's a few rooms that have exterior entries; the rest are access through entering the lobby. Room was very cozy; I could have stayed there for a week. Like many who have visited, the cafe/bakery across the street is totally worth a visit or more.

The building is beautifully restored and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The website claims the hotel has organic artisanal coffee, and I found a Kurig in the lobby with organic Kirkland pods which was disappointing. Other than that the stay was great.

A Charming Old Classic Hotel A really cool, old-fashioned classic hotel with plenty of character. The room was very clean, and the bed was surprisingly comfortable. There’s no staff on the premises, but check-in is easy using your phone. The hotel was also surprisingly quiet, which made for a very relaxing stay. And the location is great. "Route One Bakery & Kitchen" (https://reference-url-citation.invalid/0) is right across the street, with excellent breakfast pastries and good coffee. Their menu includes croissants, morning buns, scones, and other fresh-baked treats. Overall, a unique and comfortable place to stay if you like historic hotels with a little character.

The hotel has a lot of charm. It's not a big, impersonal chain. The self- serve concept was unusual but it mostly worked. Entry to the lobby was a bit difficult since the "bell" shape was not easy to see. Several guests had a similar problem. Could a big arrow be placed near the keypad to make it more obvious? We were able to find add'l towels in the hallway cabinet. wis there had also been a few more pillows. The little town is also so charming. There's a great Bakery/Coffee shop across the street and a wonderful General Store.

The property was very clean. We had a room that a direct access outside. The windows had no screens on them. There is a small refrigerator in the room. There is no staff, if you need to talk to anyone. The bakery across the street is very good, but closed on Tuesday/ Wed. There is a great general store across the street, but no other restaurant within walking distance.

We liked the property in small downtown Tomales. There were bucolic views of the surrounding hills and cattle. We didn't like the contactless approach. There was no one to greet us, and no one to connect with personally. The room was unusual in that there was no dresser, only three hangars, and only one spot to put a suitcase. There is an amazing bakery across the street.

It is an old hotel with lots of charm (on the outside). The lobby falls a little flat and could use a little more character and tbh... it smelled unpleasant! The room was very nice and looked as expected as shown in the photos. The king bed was very nice and comfortable, however the pillows were not - they went flat as soon as you laid your head on them. I think an addition of a desk would go a long way. The walls are thin so I heard our very loud neighbors talking on the phone 11pm at night. Love the contactless check in. There is a general store and lovely bakery across the street so that was nice!

The room was clean and comfortable and we had everything we needed. The mattresses are very firm. We didn't have a problem with that but it's worth noting. More like a thick tatami mattress. I would love to see the window lock properly and the hallway diffuser scent a little more light and neutral, but other than that, I have no complaints. We love the building and town. It's so charming and everyone was friendly. Check-in and out was a breeze.

Boutique little hotel with lots of history and character. Quiet and great location about 10-15 min from multiple beaches. Across the street is a fantastic bakery with good coffee as well as a little general store with a decent amount of snacks, wine, beer beach toys and other odds and ends. Easiest checking in and checking out. It’s not the most luxurious or fancy, not a ton of amenities. Felt very clean and well taken care of. I would 100% be happy staying there again, because I’m a minimalist. It’s got everything ya need, and nothing ya don’t.

The good: This hotel is beautifully designed and spotlessly clean. The room was comfortable and, the first night, very quiet. The tiny town is charming, an architectural throwback. Nice bakery across the street. The not so good: The hotel has no staff on site - literally never saw an employee. Since I had no cell phone service in the entire area and the hotel has no landline phones accessible by guests, the only way to communicate was via internet. So, when internet service went completely out the second night all communications were cut off. There’s a phone number posted in the lobby but no way to reach it! To their credit they took responsibility and explained future plans to avoid this sort of problem. But it seemed foreseeable, given that the whole town knows about cell coverage limits. I’m rounding up to a 3 due to their quick response and good intentions.

It was a nicely restored older building that maintained its original look but looks like a new version of it. I liked the remote check-in, getting an email with a code to enter the lobby and another for the room door. It was very clean. Tomales is a nice little town, close to the ocean.
