Fodor's Expert Review Metro Hotel & Café

508 Petaluma Blvd. S, Petaluma, California, 94952, USA Fodor's Choice

A stay at this downtown boutique hotel may leave you cooing Je l'adore ("I adore it") for its colorful palette, French-quirky style, and individually decorated standard-sized rooms, larger suites, four Airstream trailers, and two-bedroom cottage. Every morning, the beyond-cordial owners lay out coffee and all-you-can-eat self-serve crepes (included in the rate) in a café-like breakfast space. Deep pastels reign in all the guest rooms, which have 65" 4K Smart TVs and air-conditioning (a boon in summer, as inland Petaluma often heats up).

PROS

  • largest Airstream popular with honeymooners on a budget
  • beyond-cordial owners
  • room rate includes self-serve crepes and French-style coffee

CONS

  • lacks amenities of full-service properties (though owners aim to meet most expectations)
  • some travelers may find aesthetic too offbeat
  • 19th-century main building (though restored in 2021)
