Fizzing with chic style and Cali country roots, The Lodge at Sonoma comes with garden party flavours, a gorgeous pool and the hippest of dinner spots helmed by a celebrity chef.

From the moment you check in at the Lodge you’ll feel the spirit of Sonoma. A connection to nature and heritage runs through this hotel like a seam. With a grown up earthy palette, Mission-inspired artwork and furniture crafted from reclaimed oak, the lobby-come-living room strikes the right balance between elegant and organic. Outdoor spaces embody a golden Californian lifestyle. There’s a plush pool, cabanas to sneak away to for a glass of rosé, hammocks for post-wine snoozing and pretty little spots with wine barrel games, shaded seating and a rope hung swing. Pretty as a picture Sonoma Square is a five-minute stroll and you can drive out to some of California’s most beautiful wineries. Chateau style opulence, historic farmsteads and Francis Ford Coppola’s stylish joint – take your pick.
