The Swank Guide is supported by you. Our recommendations are 100% unbiased; we choose what we think is best. We’ve partnered with Booking.com because that ensures we can get you the lowest price. In most cases, you also have ample time to cancel.
Our goal is to save you time by finding the best hotels and experiences for you, and eliminate the stress of paying for something before you understand if it’s right for you. We work with total editorial independence. That means nothing appears in our videos as a recommendation unless we’ve tried it and loved it. These are the hotels and activities we choose for ourselves and recommend to our family and friends.
We strive to be the most trusted, the most transparent, boutique hotel recommendation service…. ever. If you choose to use our link to book a hotel, you are supporting our work. You can go around us - it won’t save you any money. This hotel commission fee supports us as we travel the world looking for the best places. Running a business costs money, and this is how we cover most of our expenses.

Thanks! Love your process… I appreciate the transparency
Thanks for watching!
Please let us know what you think, and… in our community tab, we’ve posted a short video about where we are headed next, check it out!
Great photography - love the fun facts - thanks for the recommendations - I'm booking now! You made my search that much easier.
Thanks Cambrea!
Don, you did a great job unearthing the less-known properties for folks who appreciate experiences away from mainstream... look forward to more such reviews. Maybe do a Yosemite one soon?
Thanks - much appreciated. I get various requests from subscribers for new places - so have added Yosemite to the list. Best
Thanks for the thorough yet still concise review. Your transparency and demeanor are super enjoyable to watch.
Thanks - that means a lot.... I'm still trying to get more comfortable on camera (this is all new to me)... and your comment's great encouragement.
Planning my trip to Napa and yes this was super helpful
So glad!
Fabulous video! Much appreciated and I hope to see you back in my gorgeous BC and in California where I travel often to see friends!! They are all based in SF and Mill Valley so traveling to places like Napa and Sonoma is so much fun!! I am going to be at Meritage fairly soon! Cheers! 🙂
Thanks for the kind comment.... I want to go back to that area and update the hotels b/c so many new ones have popped up.... on my ever growing to do list
Great videos and subbed! Prob looking into Harmon Guest House, thank you
Thanks. harmon is maybe the best of them I loved it
What about Four Seasons Napa Valley or one of Auberge Hotels & Resorts 3 properties in the area?
Hi - I visited the Auberge du Soleil - it seemed dated and overpriced. I don't normally review 4 Seasons b/c you know what you're gonna get there. Good luck
Thank you for provng my point. A hotel does not have to be expensive to be great. I have stayed in lavish hotels and some of them were just awful.
So true isn't it! Thanks for watching
Your title should not include the word Napa. You only showed Sonoma Hotels. Looking forward to a proper review of Napa Hotels.
Dr Wilkinson's is in Calistoga - part of Napa... I tried 2 other hotels in Napa but decided not to recommend them b/c they were overpriced and disappointing. I find Napa to be be too touristy and am trying to help people find more authentic experiences and memorable places to stay. I think anyone who wanted to experince Napa could stay in most of the hotels on this list
There is no town of Guernesville in California, so people who go looking for it on Google may or may not find it. It's Guerneville (pronounced more or less Gurney-vlile - if you get lost you might want to know how to pronounce it). Some say Gurn-ivel.
Thanks.... appreciate you educating the audince
