Meadowood Napa Valley

Recognized globally for exceptional service by Forbes Travel Guide, Meadowood joined an elite group of 11 hotels in the world — the only one in Northern California — to earn triple Five-Star Awards (for hotel, restaurant, and spa) in 2019. Once the domain of local vintners, Meadowood today shares the Napa Valley good life with just a few lucky guests.

The gabled lodge and cottages preside within a 250-acre estate in St. Helena, California. Evoking the grand old East Coast retreats of the early 1900s, they feature 98 casually refined accommodations and five equally refined rooms for meetings, events, and assemblies of 14 to 160 attendees. Outside, numerous lawns and woodland settings augment the Vintners, Woodside, and Madrone Rooms, as well as the Wine Library, with space to entertain up to 300 guests under the sun and stars.

The catering team, led by estate chef Alejandro Ayala, draws inspiration from the Meadowood gardens and creates exceptional wine and culinary experiences for all types of gatherings, large or small. Between the pleasures of the palate and the work at hand, groups can break for nine holes of golf, championship croquet, tennis, swimming, hiking, biking, workouts at the fitness center, or rejuvenation at the all-suite Meadowood Spa.

The conference services team regularly arranges wine seminars, bicycle vineyard tours, gourmet winery picnics, and candlelight dinners in wine caves and barrel rooms. Visits to nearby superstars might include Hall Wines, Cade Estate, and Davis Estates.
