Gold Miners Inn Grass Valley, an Ascend Collection Hotel

Gold Miners Inn Grass Valley, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice boutique hotel. Very comfortable rooms and the staff at the front desk were very nice. When we got to the hotel a little early, our room wasn't ready. We walked through the convention area and the lady from the front desk tracked us down to let us know the room was now available. Good breakfast in the morning."

Northern Queen Inn

Northern Queen Inn

8/10 Good
"The lodging is in an absolutely beautiful, peaceful setting, with a historic train car on the property, complete with narrative to read, and surrounded by a variety of pines & firs & other mountain greenery. The staff was helpful, especially with regard to finding places in the historic small city. Unfortunately, the room we were in was not in the best repair, with a shaggy shower curtain & a closet where the bottom of the door was not attached to the floor. Looked like it could use some touch up painting as well. If I were to go there again, I think I would check the room first & ask for another if it was not up to par!"
