Historic Setting & Renovations
The Holbrooke Hotel is a California Historical Landmark meticulously renovated to preserve its 1850s Gold Rush character. The main building houses the Golden Gate Saloon, a bar and restaurant in continuous operation since 1852. Guest rooms in the main building feature high ceilings, clawfoot tubs, and period-specific decor without televisions.
Dining & Entertainment
The on-site Golden Gate Saloon offers an American farm-to-table dinner menu and craft cocktails in a Victorian setting. Two bars provide spaces for evening drinks, with live music events scheduled regularly in the lobby and bar area. A daily continental breakfast is served from 9 to 11 am, including frittata and house-baked scones.
