Luxe Calistoga

Brent and Chris are true experts at hosting guests and running a wonderful B&B. If you’re looking for an amazing four course breakfast in the morning, and delicious wine in the afternoon — then this is totally the place for you to stay while visiting the lovely town of Calistoga.
They have beautiful landscape surrounding the property. Indoors — they have a well thought out layout and décor. Security is good, so don’t worry about your belongings. There’s a dedicated parking lot behind the property for your car (s). The hosts, Brent and Chris, are VERY social and SUPER nice to all their guests. Chris, who is also the chef, took time in creating special dishes for my wife, who has a TON of food allergies. They both were beyond accommodating, and truly made you feel like you were at home and among friends.
My wife and I visited Calistoga for our anniversary. It was our first time wine tasting, and our first time at a B&B. I have to say, after all the experiences we had that weekend while hiking, wine tasting, and going to restaurants — Brent and Chris totally stole the show. We’ll never forget them.

Awesome. Awesome place. Awesome patio. Awesome rooms.
But most of all, awesome hosts. Funny, outgoing, interesting. They will send you to the right place depending on your needs.
The wine and cheese is great.
The only bad part is that at some point you have to leave, which makes you sad.

It was 4^th of July weekend and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Brent and Chris made everything extra special from the welcoming hug on our arrival to the endless wine that flowed at the complimentary evening wine and cheese, served on the beautiful front veranda. The place was fabulous, our hosts were amazingly accommodating and helpful. When we arrived for breakfast in the morning we were treated to fresh squeezed orange juice, and french press coffee at our white linen table. This was followed by a five course gourmet breakfast! After breakfast they gave us a day kit, with some snacks and water for our day of exploring the wineries of Napa Valley. The Luxe has it’s name for a reason, it is top drawer all the way. I cannot imagine a better spot in all of Calistoga to stay than the Luxe. Our hosts were gracious and entertaining, and were there to cater to our every need. When you leave this place, you will already be planning your return visit! Brent and Chris, you are the best — thank you for making our weekend so memorable!

The Luxe Calistoga ranks as the best bed and breakfast I have ever stayed in. Located in the heart of wine country, each individual room was appointed with fine linens and Bvlgari toiletries (separate bathroom for each bedroom). Brent and Chris were a complete joy to spend time with during morning breakfast and late afternoon happy hours. My wife and I both enjoyed their humor, good spirits and welcoming attitude. The accommodations were superb and the food delicious. We’re already discussing our return trip!
Thanks Brent and Chris!

The best hosts in Napa valley. I can’t say enough great things about Chris! Brent is another story ;)
Great breakfasts, great wine hour on the porch and great conversations.
Rooms are cozy and clean, great water pressure and very comfortable beds after long days of wine tastings.
These boys know everything about Napa valley and are more than willing to get you a reservation or point you in the right direction, whichever way that may be. Lunch, dinner, under the radar vineyards, they know I all!
This was our first trip and we LOVED it, in part to the love and hospitality Chris and Brent showed our group.
Thanks boys, and we hope to see you soon!

All I can say is, if you are in town, do not stay anywhere but here. I’m not even really sure where to start!
Brent is a breath of fresh air, exceedingly likable and welcoming. I was alone (my date basically ditched me haha) and I never felt out of place or awkward. He literally made me feel like family from the moment I stepped foot on the property. He’s probably one of the nicest, most genuine people I’ve ever met… and he’s hilarious! :-) Chris was busy with jury duty, but still made time to meet us for wine hour. He was equally as likable and friendly. So yea, can’t say enough good things about these two! I can’t wait to go back and pick up with friends where we left off.
Now onto the inn: clean, charming, relaxing, elegant, inviting. The porch is huge and lovely with comfortable couches, tables, and reading options. It rained and was chilly my entire stay, but the porch was always warm and cozy with soft blankets, relaxing music, and overhead heaters. I stayed in the downstairs queen room which had a separate private entrance on the side. I didn’t see much of the main area inside but my room was lovely and inviting and offered complimentary chocolates. The inn has a private parking lot, so no worries about finding somewhere to park. There’s lots to do and places to eat within walking distance of the inn, but if you don’t feel like walking, the room does come with shuttle passes. Just ask Brent or Chris to point you in the right direction, they won’t steer you wrong! Just make sure you plan to attend the wine hour on the porch with Brent and Chris to share some delicious wine, a yummy charcuterie board, and good conversation before you head out!
Let me just talk about the breakfast because holy balls, it’s delicious. Soft jazz, French press coffee, fresh squeezed orange juice, and 4 courses of yum. Brent is an amazing cook and expertly pairs flavors and dishes that will delight. Don’t be picky, just let him do his thing, and you’ll be glad you did. When breakfast is done, say your goodbyes and hit the road with a full belly and a happy heart. :-)
Thumbs up. What an amazing place and what amazing people. Thanks Brent and Chris!

This is absolutely the best B&B we have ever stayed in. Brent and Chris are the ultimate hosts, everything was perfect. The breakfast was a culinary feast, the accommodations spotless and well-​appointed, and the conversations delightful. It was cold and rainy during our stay yet we were dry and cozy on the patio with heaters and blankets. The attention to detail that Brent and Chris made our visit one to remember. We’ll be back!

My husband and I stayed here, a beautiful luxurious B & B for our ten year anniversary. The house was beautifully remodeled and restored, and our room was filled with tasteful furniture and clean linens. Brent and Chris, the owners, were hilarious but, at the same time, very thoughtful and wonderful. It was fun chatting with them in the morning while they served four course breakfast with fresh squeezed orange juice and Costa Rican coffee. The food was amazing! The portion was perfect and the taste was wonderful. I wish I could stay longer here… We definitely love to come back here and spend more time in Calistoga so that we can enjoy their happy hour in the evening! Thank you for your hospitality, Brent and Chris!!!

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon, and we can’t get over how amazing it was! Chris & Brent were wonderful. They prepared a 4 course breakfast every day that was OUTSTANDING, they made restaurant/​winery suggestions and helped us make reservations, they hosted a wine and cheese happy hour on the porch (this was my favorite part of the day), and (maybe the most important thing of all) they made us feel special. My wife and I feel more connected to Calistoga than any other place we’ve vacationed because of where we stayed. It’s difficult to articulate, but basically we feel like we left good friends back in CA and can’t wait to go back and visit.
One word of advice… plan all dinners in Calistoga (many great places are in walking distance of the Luxe). After 2 hours of wine during happy hour on the porch, you won’t want to drive anywhere. We’d initially made reservations in Yountville and Napa for dinner, but after the first night, we realized the error of our ways, and switched those to lunch reservations.

Brent and Chris work their hearts into making this an amazing stay for guests. The location is perfect. Immediately you feel like you have landed. Accommodations are delightful, but THEY are the reason that we will go back. They make it so comfortable. Happy hour on the inviting deck is sublime. They serve spectacular wines, a little charcuterie to engage, and voila! New friendships sealed. But the best part awaits in the morning when breakfast is served! Each day, something new and it is just darn good. Seriously, I would return just for the food. What a perfect charming B&B this is. The secret is out.

This bed and breakfast is pretty amazing… Much needed change of pace after San Fran. It’s so gorgeous here, you can tell Brent and Chris are really putting their heart and soul into running this place with love. I’m sure you’ve seen the pics on how amazing this place is but I mean … No really, it is. Extremely well Kempt. Rooms are modern and clean, bathroom is spacious with delcious bvlgari toiletries…
They have a good thing going here, that’s for sure. 4 years and I can see it lasting for a very long while…
Now on to the goods… Did I mention they nailed the breakfast part of bed and breakfast… Shit was legit. A few courses… A nice bite of Hawaiian French toast.Danish. Fruit and yog… Poached egg over peppers and chorizo, it was all delicious. And they even catered to my New York ways by serving us two pots of fuel… I mean coffee… They even give the cutest little «to go» bags filled with snacks for the road which is such a nice touch… We really enjoyed it here and wished we could have spent more time here. I’ve already spread the word about how wonderful this place is and what’s best is they make you feel like family … Luxe this place is!
If you’re thinking about staying here, don’t think. Just book it…

Amazing! Stayed here in Feb 2015 with my wife who took me as a surprise for my birthday. What a fantastic place! The Location is perfect and Chris and Brent made the stay incredibly special. The food was great the bed and room were well above expectations. Evenings on the porch are a real treat. Unfortunately we were only there for 1 night but we promise to go back again! Thanks Chris and Brent for a fantastic stay! We miss you guys!

My wife and I stayed here for a few days over Memorial Day Weekend 2015. The owners are the ones who welcome you, cook your breakfast and sit with you on their deck at happy hour. Brent and Chris will personalize your visit. They will ask your plans for the day and then make them better if necessary. Truly a bed & breakfast experience. Situated within a walk to many shops, restaurants, wineries etc. Our three favorite things about staying here are 1) delicious, unique, 4-​course breakfast to start each day; 2) they give you a bag of snacks and waters for your daily trips without us even asking; 3) complimentary happy hours on the porch where you can get to know the owners and other guests. Lastly, we felt it was very reasonably priced. Thank you for a great stay! Love, Randy & Melissa.

You will go for the 4-​course breakfasts — but you will stay for the hospitality!
Luxe is a very comfortable B&B conveniently nestled in Calistoga. The owners, Brent & Chris, have thought of everything, from toilet paper stickers to Frette linens. Although you are in the heart of the iconic California wine country, the highlight of your day will be the hospitable «book ends» Brent & Chris personally create for you… Notably, the 4-​course breakfast in the morning and a relaxing charcuterie plate and wine on the porch in the evening.
My husband and I usually stay at a different place each time we visit Napa. But, I think we’ve now found our spot. And we’re stickin’ to it!

Holy cow!
I got the pleasure of staying in the king suite last weekend. I’m almost too relaxed to be Unilocaling yet.
The house is beautiful, very relaxing and mellow. We were greeted by Brent, who promptly got us to our room and told us he had a charcuterie plate for us. We put down our bags and went out for snacks and wine. My BF and I were in our own world all day and weren’t sure we wanted to interact with others, but the other guests were great and Brent was hilarious. (Brent, you have injected new words in to our vocabulary ensuring our weekend goes on forever). Recommendations were offered, amazing wine served…
The room was great, beautiful and comfortable. We slept super well and the shower had two heads which was very handy. We had a little whoops in the room and apologized the next day and Brent was beyond cool, and luckily other guests were not disrupted by our shenanigans. (if you light a candle, trim the wick first — duh).
Breakfast was magic and I got to meet Chris who is equally delightful. My BF said it would be awesome but it was even better than expected.
We had a lovely visit, had fun with Brent and Chris and enjoyed the old folks too. :)
Thanks guys, you are graceful hosts that make things look effortless. I promise to stop by for a hug every time I pass through Calistoga.

If you stay in Napa Valley, definitely stay here!
My boyfriend is an OCD neat freak and thankfully, so are the hosts. This place is immaculate; we couldn’t find a speck of dirt anywhere — even outside on the adorable wrap around porch. Everything about this place was so simple yet so luxurious. We stayed for two nights and had plans to explore but were just so content with relaxing that we ended up spending most of our time on the porch and laying around in our room.
We have never stayed at a bed and breakfast before, and we weren’t really sure what to expect. The hosts, were warm, welcoming, and hilarious. You could spend your time chatting with them or, if you prefer, hang out in your own little area. We never felt awkward and never felt like their presence was invasive. Chris had to leave the first night we were there so we didn’t spend too much time with him, but Brent was super helpful. He highlighted recommendations on a map for us in case we did manage to crawl out of our rooms to venture out into the real world (we didn’t make it, though, ’cause our rooms were more than enough to keep us happy).
Last, but not least, the food was AMAZING. Wine and a charcuterie plate filled with nuts, fruit, cheese, and meat served every evening. Breakfast was all house made and served in courses: an amuse bouche, pastries, fruit, then an entrée. They do NOT kid around when it comes to breakfast. The food was better than any restaurant we could have gone to. French pressed coffee from Costa Rica, fresh-​squeezed orange juice, tea. Everything comes out hot and timing is perfect. Then when you’re done with breakfast, you get handed a snack pack with waters for emergency snacking and hydration during the day. My boyfriend easily turns into a hangry drama queen when he isn’t fed, so this was perfect.
Chris and Brent don’t live at Luxe Calistoga, but it really felt as if they set up this place like it was their own home. They have impeccable taste, and they didn’t skimp on ANY amenities. The place was so clean that I felt like I needed to remove my shoes when I walked through the front door! The food and wine was so amazing that I really felt as if they would never serve anything they wouldn’t eat or drink themselves. They take a lot of pride in their place, and you can really feel it.
Thank you, Chris and Brent, for such a good time! We will definitely come back!

My beautiful bride and I decided to spend our first few nights of our honeymoon at the Luxe Calistoga. Upon arrival, we were immediately greeted by Brent and Chris. They are both very friendly and warmly welcomed us… by pouring us some wonderful red Caymus!
Our room (Downstairs Queen), is perfect for a romantic getaway, including private entrance and gas fireplace. A great experience in itself, and I haven’t even got to the breakfast yet! Each morning we were served a delicious 4-​course meal, including coffee from a french press. They even give you a grab-​bag to go with some snacks for your day! If that wasn’t enough, they made us dinner reservations, private wine tasting reservations, and told us about some great places to run.
The only thing we have to complain about is that they ruin the rest of our trip because no other B&Bs or hotels could meet the expectations we had after staying at the Luxe! For all future trips to the Napa/​Calistoga area, we have found our home.
Thank you Brent and Chris for helping us have such a great beginning to our wonderful life together. Best wishes guys!
Danny and Diana

We decided, on a whim, to spend the night in Callistoga. After quickly researching Unilocal… we called Luxe to check on last minute room availability. Luckily… a gorgeous room was available. Unilocal was right! 5 stars is what we would rate this bed and breakfast. We travel frequently, and always stay at bed & breakfasts.
The owners are fabulous, the location can’t be beat. The bed and bedding were first class, and the room décor is gorgeous. We sat on the deck for cheese & wine from 5−7pm, along with four other guests, as well as the owners. It was the perfect way to start a fabulous evening before walking downtown for a great dinner at Jole.
We will definitely be back to stay at Luxe again.

Luxe: The condition of being elegantly sumptuous.
Luxe Calistoga has to be the best bed and breakfast in Napa Valley. A fun, comfortable, and very convenient place (with a huge private parking lot), with two extraordinary hosts (Brent and Chris) and amazing chef (Joshua) and housekeeper (Maria).
We arrived in mid afternoon, and Brent arranged a terrific charcuterie plate with a selection of sausage, cheeses and fruit. He served us two tasty local wines with a few other guests on «the Porch». The Porch is ground zero at Luxe. Here you meet your fellow guests, immerse yourself in great music and great conversation, enjoy a hearty four-​course breakfast that rivals 5 star restaurants, and sample wines, cheeses and cured meats that you have never tasted before.

Brent and Chris are wonderful hosts and just really nice people. Brent understands ‘customer service’. Certain brands are synonymous with customer service — Tesla, Apple, Nordstroms, Ritz Carlton and Amazon. Luxe Calistoga is an equal member on this list.
They focus on your safety (load you up with four course hearty breakfasts BEFORE you go wine tasting, they provide bottled water and snacks — the heat can be surprising to folks, they helped folks with complicated travel logistics), your comfort, your palate, your limited time and your interests in the Napa Valley (Brent and Chris are triple PHDs in the Napa Valley area). Everything is well ‘appointed’.
Chef Joshua made the most amazing breakfasts every day and Brent presents them personally to each guest. Example: French-​press Costa Rican coffee and orange juice followed with «Joshua’s fried pickles» ;-), freshly baked sticky buns, fresh fruit and finally jalapeño waffles with fried chicken and bourbon maple sauce. And another: French press Costa Rican Coffee and OJ followed by fresh berries and a dusting of sugar, a maple oat scone, and poached egg served on polenta with chimichurra sauce and polenta. I can confidently say Luxe Calistoga and Joshua make the list of the ‘top five’ breakfasts ever.
We will be back.
For those tech folks — Verizon LTE service is amazing here. 26MB down, 10MB up!
For you walkers — there is a delightful 900 foot elevation walk from Luxe Calistoga up a road 200 yards away that is about 3.5mi round trip with incredible views at the top

Brent and Chris are the best hosts ever. We really enjoyed wine and cheese in the evening — so relaxing and it felt like we were all long lost friends. All the guest gathered on the beautiful wrap around deck and chatted up a storm. Fun Fun! Even if it is winter — don’t worry, there are heat lamps all around this deck so it can feel like summer every day of the year :)
Breakfast was ever so gourmet — loved it. They are very accommodating to dietary needs — just make sure you give the chef advance notice so he can whip up something super fancy for you too.
We had the queen suite just off the east side of the house. Cute little private patio area out front and the room was just perfect for both of us on our short visit (two days). Robes and an IPad were available for us to use — nice. Fancy chocolates were in our room daily YUM.
Easy walking distance to all Calistoga has to offer.
One thing I must mention is to bring good earplugs because the street noise is pretty loud. Almost like a canyon echo effect — weird. Big rigs are passing thru at all hours of the night driving a hole into your brain. The bed is so comfortable though you won’t even notice if you have great earplugs.
I would highly recommend this B&B and will come back as soon as possible!
