The downtown is very nice and walkable, and I liked the Robert Louis Stevenson museum. It's also close to Calistoga and the famous hot springs. The weather is great and if you enjoy wine, the choices are endless!

Beautiful location centrally located in the Napa Valley. Best wineries in the Valley are located in St. Helena! Highly recommend this peaceful little town for its beauty and convenience to every part of the Napa Valley!

Perfect spot when visiting the Wine districts. It is easy to find good Restaurants and the service level are in general very high. This time I had a great dinner @Market Restaurant, great food and excellent service!

Cute little town. If wine is your thing, this is the place to be. However, if you are willing to explore a bit more, there is the Robert Louis Stevenson/Silverado Museum within walking distance of the downtown area. And, just a short drive to Calistoga, there is the Petrified Forest. Amazing! I had no idea, California had it’s own Petrified Forest. They have a small park in town that puts on events. The night I checked in, they had a community potluck with live music! I had already had dinner at one of the in town restaurants, but I shamelessly had my desert in the park & enjoyed the jazz/blues trio playing. Enjoyable 2-day stay!

St Helena is a little cheaper to stay in than Napa or Sonoma and, I would argue, offers something a bit different - you can stay right amongst the vineyards and it has some of the best restaurants in Napa Valley right on your doorstep. Farmstead is the standout choice just outside of the town centre, but Charter Oak next door also gets rave reviews and there are more restaurants like Market and Cooks in St Helena itself that come highly recommended. And for quicker options, the bruschetta truck at Clif Family Tasting Rooms is fantastic and Gott’s Roadside is great for a burger and milkshake in between your wine tours. On the vineyards themselves, there are obviously more to choose from than I could mention, but I would highly recommend Hall Wines with its large sculptured “Bunny Foo-Foo” out front - it is a very modern vineyard which mixes great wine and great art to fantastic effect.

“Basswood Bar and Kitchen!!” By far . . . Some of the best food we’ve had the pleasure of savoring!! Chef David Nuno can’t be beat!! (Try the mozzarella cheese bread!!) Yum!! We also had a great dining experience at the “Goose and Gander!” Ambiance on the outdoor patio at night is so romantic! Finally . . . Best breakfast ever at “Gillwoods”on Main Street - just north of Spring Street. Great variations on Eggs Benedict!! Plus great scrambles, waffles, and pancakes with lots of fruit!! Yum!!
