Fess Parker Wine Country Inn

Love the location and restaurant on property. Was very disappointed in the hotel staff. Checked in on a rainy night no assistance offered for luggage or parking. No housekeeping M-W. “Turn down service” didn’t even restock basic bathroom amenities. For the price paid the value just wasn’t there. Front desk staff was rude and confrontational solving folio questions. Very disappointed as my wife and I were looking to make this a regular getaway.

Delighted to report a warm and wonderful solo adventure weekend thanks to the great hospitality at Fess Parker. From check in to check out, gracious and accommodating staff. Restaurant recommendations were spot on: Nella and Wine Merchant Cafe. Lively Saturday night in the bar area after Christmas tree lighting was fun. As a solo traveler I always appreciate the same level of service that’s bestowed on couples couples couples. Thank you team!

Four of us booked the wine cottage for three nights in the beginning of Oct. It is a beautiful 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom cottage that sits behind the Epiphany Tasting Room which makes it very convenient for tastings there. When booking the cottage you get complimentary tasting to Epiphany and Fess Parker. The cottage has a large living area with comfortable sofas and a full kitchen. The cottage was spotless and the air conditioning worked great. There is also an outdoor area but we spent our time at Epiphany enjoying the wine. You can use the Fess Parker Inn facilities but we didn’t have time to take advantage of them. The staff was kind enough to call us when the cottage was ready so we could get in early. There was a Keurig as well as a drip coffee maker.

Lovely hotel on the main drag in Los Olivos. The rooms are very large and luxurious and well appointed. I didn't hear any noise from the street and while it was incredibly hot outside the two air systems in my room kept it more than comfortable. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the restaurant is spectacular. And they place a wonderful bottle of wine in each room. Such a great touch!

If you are accustomed to the best in life, you will feel right at home here. We had Suite One and it was an experience unlike any other we’ve had. Understated, luxurious, quiet, perfection, what a way to live.o

We found this hotel to be the perfect setting for a quick getaway. We stayed in a Grand Spa room that was comfortable and spacious. Features included two arm chairs in a well-lit corner, a nice desk, and a fireplace. The windowed bathroom was ample sized with a large walk in shower. We stayed in the west building which is across the main street of the town from the other half of the hotel. We did not find this arrangement bothersome at all. The road is never really that busy so it is easy to cross. In addition to rooms, the west building has a small windowless gym and a very nice pool with loungers and seating areas in an attractive courtyard setting. The east side is where you will find a small lobby, library room, cute breakfast room, and Nella, the hotel’s popular and tasty restaurant. Upon check in we were given a booklet full of information and discounts to the local wineries and businesses. There was also a complimentary bottle of house wine in our room to enjoy. Besides a very good dinner at Nella on the front patio, the simple free breakfast hit the spot. We have enjoyed visiting the idyllic town of Los Olivos for years but this was our first overnight visit. Staying at the Fess Parker fit right in with the low key charming vibe of the town and enhanced our stay by providing a nice upscale bed and breakfast environment. There is no resort or parking fees which is a rare treat that we appreciated.

We were in the suite on the main road. The space is gorgeous and the room is perfectly thought through. However it is dark because to open the shutters would be to invite the passing world into your room. At the price point there is no outside space but the pool area is so convenient it is impossible to mark down for this. However at night the noise from the restaurants outside and the people (elephants?) above and in the hallway would be an absolute dealbreaker to return. We enjoyed going 10 minutes out of town for the ‘free’ tasting at the Fess Parker winery. Adrienne was amazing and has enthusiasm levels rarely met in the UK. Thank you. Love the room. Location is great fun for a short stay. But Napa it is not.

One of the best hotel stays I’ve ever had. From start to finish the experience at Fess Parker was excellent. At checkin we were greeted by friendly staff who gave us a tour of the grounds and amenities. Our room was large and luxurious with a private fireplace, complimentary wine, and all the amenities to make for a comfortable stay. The bed was SUPER comfortable with luxury linens. Breakfast was delicious and again the staff was exceptional. We also took advantage of the outdoor fireplace and pool area - which made for a comfy spot to enjoy a glass of vino. Truly Spectacular!

Situated in the quaint little burg of Los Olivos hard by Solvang and the wine trail, the accommodations are luxe and the staff superb. Checked in over the xmas holidays and everything is open and abuzz. Convenient to all the little nearby towns and on the Main Street you can enjoy your room and a stroll. Great breakfast was included. Highly recommend as we had 2 fireplaces to enjoy on our rainy nights after doing the wineries and a hike up Figueroa Mountain.
