We loved the Cary House. It's an old historic hotel, gorgeous lobby, furnished with period furniture, and an amazing old elevator. If you're into more modern and up to date furnishings and rooms, stay somewhere else. The people that work here are awesome. We'll be going back!

It was warm hot but property hadn’t switched over to AC so was given a standing fan. Incomplete set up in kitchen. Had to ask for bowl and spoon, which staff was able to find. Charming property. Next time, will try to get a room that faces street. Great, helpful, knowledgeable front desk staff.

The kitchen was a nice feature, but I was only there for a quick overnight stay. The property is an exceptional example of a gold rush era hotel and is well kept, and in the heart of a rustic gold rush town. I recommend a weekend there to experience the incredible history that NorthernCalifornia has to offer. (Heard the place was delightfully haunted!) I seem to be immune to that sort of stuff though…

We have stayed at the Historic Cary House for many years while visiting wine country near Placerville. It is very convenient and walkable to Main Street restaurants and to regional wineries. The hotel is clean and quiet. The front desk manager is very helpful.
