Madonna Inn - rated 4

"Great Getaway"
Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Nov 20, 2009

As a frequent traveler, especially for business, I am usually not fond of going off to another hotel during my down time. But the Madonna Inn is the exception to the rule, this is truly a great getaway. Forget the mundate hotel experience ... this is a trip into the realm of leaving it all behind. The service staff exceeded every 5 Star experience I've had. The rooms are unique to say the least ... but not at all "tired" as some of the reviews might have you believe. The upkeep seems to be spot on ... while leaving the original charm from the 50's and 60's intact. What really knocked me out was the steakhouse ... at first impression you are thinking cheesy kitsch. But all that goes away when you experience a terrific wine list, top notch service, and some of the best food on the planet. (Try the Stilton cheese on endive appetizer!). The steaks put all but the most prized restaurants to shame. They are that good. With the new conference facility on their attached ranch, I am seriously looking into booking an upcoming business conference there. The Madonna Inn gets my highest recommendation. And that's something to say.
