We spent one night in St. Helena and stayed at the El Bonita "The Beauty" . The grounds were beautiful, the rooms were comfortable, and the staff was very pleasant. We stayed in the back of the motel, away from the street, so we didn't hear any traffic at all. more

I decided to book a room here because it was very close to the V. Sattui Winery where I would be attending a wedding. Accommodations in this town are pretty $$$ so I tried this motel even though I read mixed reviews. We stayed in a roadside room. The room itself was pretty small and had minimal to no amenties.... more

The King George Suite with two bedrooms, 1 bath and family room area was nice for travelling with friends and very economical ($260 inc. tax). It had a small kitchen area and table for meals. The sauna and heated pool were also very nice after a long day of tasting wines at all of the nearby wineries. Go to the... more

This place had everything. It was a great Location; within walking distance to numerous vineyards to get lashed and Ana's Cantina to get more lashed. It had an amazing view. Great rooms and decor. Very comfortable and accomadating. The staff were fantastic. They let us stay at the pool and jacuzzi until 3am crushing wine and screaming nonsensically. No complaints... more

We stayed for one night at the El Bonita motel. Check in was efficient and informative. We stayed in a poolside room, but road noise did not intrude. The pool and hot tub were great. The inclusive breakfast was also pleasant, in a nice bright room. The wineries, shops and restaurants of St Helena are all close by. It was... more

We found this motel in Wine Spectator and checked it out on TripAdvisor. Great recommendation by both. We were very happy with our room, which was about 25 yards off Highway 29, the main wine country road. Road noise was not a factor. The room had a fridge and microwave. Very nice shower. The pool, hot tub, and sauna were... more

So it's a motel. If you get that in your head from the start you will LOVE this place. It's VERY CLEAN for a motel. It is located in my favorite city, St. Helena on the main road. So that part is good and bad. There is potential street noise for sure. Also you can hear everything...people walking by your... more

My wife and I stayed at the El Bonita for 3 nights while taking a course at the Culinary Institute in St. Helena. We picked the El Bonita primarily for the price as most accommodation in Napa was very expensive. We were pleasantly surprised by what we got. The room was modest, to be sure, and very 60's. It was... more

Great deal. Cool-looking place. A huge room, with attractive furniture, a fridge and microwave for $100 on an off season midweek night. Free wireless internet. A short drive up the road to the restaurants and shops of St. Helena. Of course, you don’t expect the smoothest sheets or fluffiest towels. I would have traded the giant whirlpool tub for a... more

My 2 teens & I love to visit the Wine Country - especially St. Helena. We always try to stay @ El Bonita. Clean, reasonable in price, & close to just about everything. The pool is heated - something my teens really enjoy. (Mom hangs out in the jacuzzi!) Yes, it is a bit "no frills," but what you really... more
