The Spirit of Place Sophisticated, yet unpretentious. Cultured, yet convivial. A place where wild beauty stirs your adventurous spirit and authentic hospitality comes from the heart. Northern California is like nowhere else. And we feel there’s no better way to experience its true nature than with the people who know it best. When you stay in a Woodside destination, you’re much more than our guest. You’re cared for like family.
Family Created, California Cultivated. For over 40 years, Woodside Hotels has been Northern California’s premier, independent hospitality company—ever since the Alden family purchased a small bayside inn and transformed it into the first of several celebrated hotels, the brand has been founded on the simple idea of genuine, thoughtful hospitality inspired by the local land and lifestyle. Unlike the big hotel brands, we welcome you to estate-like properties that make you feel like you’re returning home. We delight you with handcrafted treats from our kitchens and nurturing spa treatments with ingredients cultivated from our gardens. We create insider experiences that allow you to connect with the region and bond with your family and friends. We make you feel at home whether you’re here for a wedding, honeymoon, babymoon, anniversary, business trip—or just because. And we invite you to share in a family legacy that grows richer with every stay. Today, Woodside Hotels is thoughtfully stewarded by the next generation of Aldens, who grew up among these magical getaways across Northern California—running free along the Bodega coastline, through the Lafayette oaks and into the Yountville vineyards. Likewise, the families of our first guests are returning with children of their own to share the same local experiences—and the same sense of welcome and wonder.
