Enjoy the rustic quirks of a charming, historic boutique hotel coupled with a wonderfully inviting ambiance and stellar service that will leave you wanting more.At the Hotel Charlotte, you'll be welcomed by friendly, knowledgable staff who will help you settle in to one of our 10 hotel rooms or 6 guest houses. Whether you want to experience the natural wonders of the surrounding area and Yosemite, have a romantic getaway, or enjoy a stay in an authentic old west hotel, you will find what you are looking for at the Hotel Charlotte. The owners, Doug and Jenn Edwards, wanted to retain the gold rush feel of the hotel while at the same time modernizing and simplifying. The sage green walls, the throwback Edison lightbulbs, the oversized, brown velvet sofas - invite guests to step into a contemporary old west. The look of the hotel also carries into the adjoining restaurant, the Charlotte Bistro & Bar. Under the direction of Chef Doug Edwards, the restaurant features locally grown produce and innovative Modern American fare.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great people that run a very nice place. My wife and I have twice now enjoyed a night in Groveland before a trip into Yosemite. Hotel Charlotte is clean and comfortable. The people seem to genuinely care about creating a great experience for their guests. I will be back again before my next Yosemite trip.

Hats off to the owner of The Charlotte What a beautiful hotel and what a comfy stay from the bed to the fluffy bedding and TOWELS don’t worry if you forget your shampoo conditioner or even your body wash because they have it and it’s not the little tiny ones, that chain hotels buy Not that all of that wasn’t pleasant enough but the owner of the Charlotte is a true life saver I found my self working in Groveland and needing a place to stay for the night my patient told me a go to the Groveland motel!! NOT I ended up getting my money back the lady was nice enough to return my money So that’s when I found out all the good places to stay close their lobby’s earlier than me coming in But when calling the Charlotte I got the owner and told him my story I guess he felt bad so

The owners of Hotel Charlotte were amazingly warm and defined hospitality for us. I was so grateful that they let us stay beyond checkout, as I had a Zoom meeting at noon. They set me up in a private space that was clean, quiet and perfect. I look forward to returning to this little slice of heavenly America!

We visited Yosemite over Thanksgiving and wanted to stay in a cool little Gold Rush town with a historic Main Street. We found the Hotel Charlotte....a little treasure in Groveland, California.....It is located on Main Street....The owner, Finn was so nice and welcoming at check in....The hotel has a wonderful bar and restaurant...We stayed in room 8 which was pet friendly and was on the first floor near the lobby...... The room was comfortable and clean...and the lobby offered fresh Keurig coffee every morning....We will definitely stay at this wonderful little gem again!!!!!

Sacramento, California11 contributions13 helpful votes
Hotel Charlotte is the quintessential boutique hotel you would expect to find in the southern end of California’s Gold Country. It was easy to find right off Highway 120 and smack dab in the middle of Groveland’s cute historic downtown Main Street. Some previous reviewers commented on Highway noise but with a posted speed limit of 25 MPH and narrow frontage, I didn’t find the traffic to be an issue. Upon arrival I was greeted by Fin, the owner, who was very friendly, upbeat and super helpful orienting me on the hotel’s amenities, dining options and nearby restaurants and nighttime activities. I stayed in Room 11 which was a second floor Single King and although it was an intimately sized room, it had a full size walk in shower which I wanted instead of a claw foot tub.

Thank you for your kind words and positive feedback! It was indeed a joy hosting you at our historic inn. Regarding our current wine selection at the Tavern, we are entering the last few weeks of our winter season service. We will be closing the restaurant after New Year's Day thru February. So, we are downsizing the wine selection a tad and bringing out some of the cellar selections we have on hand. Come spring, we'll be bringing on a new selection of extraordinary wines. Hope to see you again in the future. Cheers!

A wonderful place on the way to Yosemite! Welcomed by lovely people in a very quaint hotel that had small but wonderfully decorated rooms with the absolute best sheets on our two-week stay in the US! Also great food in the hotels' restaurant! Thanks for your hospitality!

Had a brilliant stay in this wild, whacky & wonderful hotel. Everything was perfect, the owner has a passion for making your stay the best it could possibly be. Friends recommended it to us and it didn’t disappoint. Don’t hesitate your stay will be as good as ours, repeat customers were checking in from over the decades it’s been open. Thanks for making our stay a great one that we will remember ❤️ Debbie & Peter Nicholls

We stayed at Hotel Charlotte for one night after visiting Yosemite. The hotel itself was really charming, with antique furniture and a bit of an 'old western' vibe. When we arrived, we were greeted the the owner, who was incredibly friendly, who gave us our keys and let us settle into the room. The room itself was beautiful, and the bathroom had a large bathtub, which was a nice touch, and appreciated after spending several days in tents. We were starving when we first arrived, so after we arrived, the first thing we did was to get dinner. The hotel had a nice dining area out back with lighting and outdoor heating lamps. The food was a little pricey, but was really good, and came with generous portions which more than made up for it. Given how hungry we were, it was worth

Great hotel with the little extra of good and personal service. They are thinking ahead of your arrival if it is late. Parking in the back yard included. A cozy place and cheaper than hotels closer to Yosemite.
