Cinnamon Bear Creekside Inn

What a wonderful experience. The rooms are very comfortable and the large living room and dining room are great place to sit and talk after a day of wine tasting at the many excellent wineries in Sonoma. The breakfasts are both spectacular and healthy. The staff are great and always willing to please. You can’t beat this B and B.

This was our first stay at this B&B, and when comparing them to other amazing B&Bs in the area, I don’t think we’ll be back.
The Inn is located at a busy intersection in Sonoma and unfortunately when paired with the window A/​C units, our room had a TON of street noise. I expected it to quiet down into the night, but it didn’t let up very much at all. The breakfast was fine, an egg casserole with slices of watermelon and a slice of lemon cake on the side. Everything was clean and coffee was ready at 8am, but they have a high bar to reach with so many excellent accommodations nearby.

We got a great deal so we decided to stay for 2 nights! Close to the town so we can explore! They gave us wine tasting cards to get a better deal which was lovely! Our room has a large jacuzzi tub and the beds are cozy! Perfect little place!

We’ve come to Sonoma many times and the hotel we normally stay at was booked.
We arrived at 2:30 and learned that the hotel literally does not OPEN until 3, and stays open only until 6. It would’ve been nice if that had been brought to our attention.
The room was super noisy (it’s right on a busy corner), the fireplace in room doesn’t work, some random person entered our room, and they have about 5 channels (slight exaggeration but not by much) — no Sports Center, HGTV — no basic cable.
The hotel is also in need of a bit of love — it smells stale and there were stains on the pillows. Also — no shower in my room — I need to go down the hall, or take a bath.
Definitely a pass.

Never been to a «Bed and Breakfast» before.
Super nice staff, very welcoming. The breakfasts were pretty amazing.
Day 1 was some eggs Benedict with this huge juicy tomato. Awesome!
Day 2 was juevos rancheros, egg was fried perfectly, the breakfast app was some yogurt granola thing with the freshest raspberries I’ve had in awhile.
Wine Pass– Given to you when you check in.
Every tasting we went to was 10/​person. Wine Pass = Free = drunk on the wine tour!
Running trails nearby so go pump up your endorphins then drown them in alcohol!
Near the road, centrally located but bring ear plugs if you leave the window open. There’s AC in the rooms so you don’t have to leave it open, but you’ve been warned.
Did I mention the Bfast is freakin amazing!

Amazing establishment and great place to spend the night. We got here in the morning to drop off our car in preparation for a wine tour. When we walked through the front door, it felt like walking into a family meal with people seated around several tables while enjoying their complimentary breakfast. The staff here was quick to point us in the right direction and gave us a free complimentary wine tasting card! When we checked-​in in the afternoon, a very friendly lady greeted us at the front desk and gave us a tour of our accommodation and went over, in detail, the layout of downtown Sonoma. Her recommendation of the restaurant called Girl and the Fig was spot on! A great dinner/​date spot :)
Our room had a king bed w/​plenty of pillows, A/​C that pumped an abundance of cool air into the room, and a large jacuzzi. Our bathroom did not have a shower but there’s a guest bathroom in the hall upstairs with one.
The following morning, we had a delicious bfast that featured a full compliment of items including coffee/​tea, OJ, yogurt w/​fresh raspberry, amazing sausage/​mushroom/​egg entrée, pancakes, and slice of orange. Of course, service was amazing!
Highly recommend this place and will definitely be staying here again next time I’m in Sonoma.

Had a great time! Kathy and Angela were awesome! And the pancake with fresh strawberries were yummy! We look forward to visiting soon.

This place is so cute! Me and my boyfriend’s stay at Cinnamon Bear Inn was our first bed and breakfast experience. We stayed on a night that was not busy so we got to pick the room we wanted to stay in. We chose the bottom floor in the back of the house. It was a suite with a separate living room and fire place, it was very nice and we had it all to ourselves. The whole house was very clean and quiet, the bed was very comfy and cozy, and the bathroom was a good size. I liked that we had full size mirrors in our room as well.
There was a full size kitchen with a refrigerator to store food and drinks, which was convenient. The home cooked breakfast was great and included with the stay. Coffee and juice was provided. This place is conveniently located close to downtown Sonoma, grocery stores, gas stations and restaurants. Wine tasting is also very close by! The price to stay here is great for the quality of the rooms and what is included. The staff was also very friendly! I recommend staying in the room with the attached living room that we stayed in. My boyfriend and I will definitely stay here again.
My only suggestion is upgrading the TV’s in some of the rooms and adding to the channel selection. Also, a working hot tub and seating area would be awesome in the beautiful garden area.

What a blessing it was to find Cinnamon Bear for a stay of several weeks. It was a long stay due to mold found in my home. Angela was there to greet me and was the warmest, sincerest individual I have encountered in a very long time. She was able to fit me in to the Inn by creatively changing my rooms several times, which was lovely because now I have my favorites. My very favorite is Room #3…it is a spacious suite with a fireplace.
The breakfasts were especially delicious! Breakfast was also a great opportunity to meet other travelers in the lovely dining area. The interior of the Inn is immaculate and the housekeepers, both Maria and Alicia, were very accommodating and outstandingly helpful.
Just one suggestion: Would love to see a few upgrades to the garden area where the Hot Tub is located. Possibly a few new lounge chairs since the gardens there are so inviting for relaxation after a day of wine tasting.
Thank you all for making my stay so memorable. I highly recommend a stay at the Cinnamon Bear at any time of the year in Sonoma!

Our party of 7 had an amazing time up here. We made a reservation for 3 rooms a month in advance and the owners were very kind and accommodating of our needs. The rooms were clean and charming. Mine had a white noise generator which was really nice since I’m a light sleeper. The bed was very comfortable. I slept like a log both nights (the wine I drank all day probably helped). The receptionist was very gracious and helped us make reservations and called cabs for us.
The breakfast was delicious. They would ask us about our dining preferences and they were very willing to work with dietary needs. They also gave us a free wine-​tasting passbook! We also had free wi-​fi and delicious cinnamon gummy bears :)
I can’t recommend this place enough.

Lovely stay at this cozy, clean inn with a comfy bed, spacious bathroom and incredible service. They made accommodations for my Gluten Free needs too, and were happy to do it.
So happy we found this place, and would definitely recommend it.

INCREDIBLY RUDE MANAGEMENT — DO NOT STAY HERE.
I made a mistake when making my reservation and booked the wrong night. When we showed up and realized the mistake, the girl at the front desk very graciously called her manager to come meet us to see if there was anything we could do to mitigate the 7-​day cancellation policy that was about to get invoked…
The manager comes out — and was just flat out RUDE. We understood the policy, but we also would have hoped at least to have an adult conversation with a reasonable person, such as exploring credit for my nonprofit dog rescue shelter to send a guest to stay at the inn some other night… But nope — I guess we were thick or something because we were talking about things that the manager just did not understand.
And as to your response to my TripAdvisor review of your inn — sorry, you misunderstood what we’re complaining about. We read your rules; you just don’t understand CIVILITY. What a miserable, nasty person.
Customer service is about people-​to-​people relationships, not regulations. I guess they made a choice to prioritize the latter. We choose never to come here again.
TRY THE BEST WESTERN DOWN THE STREET — huge rooms, beautiful outdoor pool and hot tub, nice breakfast, and one block walking distance from the Square! SO much better.
Your inn is an inconvenient roadside stop anyway; why bother.

We are locals who put up a guest there recently so had a chance to check it out. Looks a little bland and dated on the outside but very nice on the inside. Well decorated, fully updated, comfortable and good sized rooms, beds and baths. Great value for those focusing on touring the area.

We came here to celebrate an anniversary in the wine country. I was apprehensive about staying in a B&B yet pleasantly surprised with this venue. The place is quiet, clean and friendly. The staff will also help recommend places to go and will take care of reservations for you.

Love. Absolutely Loved my Monday night stay here.
The Inn is quiet, welcoming, and clean. I was impressed by Kristin (I think her name was). She is professional and helpful! She’s sweet and pleasant.
My room was on the ground level and I loved it. The TV only has a few channels, but maybe that was for the better, as I should be out exploring Sonoma! The Inn gave me a few wine tasting cards, and I took advantage of one of them at Roche Winery at the square.
As other’s have said, you can hear cars while you’re trying to sleep, but I cured that problem with the ceiling fan and TV. I slept «ok», but that was my fault for drinking too much coffee.
The are so accommodating about breakfast. it would be nice to have coffee a bit earlier, but there’s many places within walking to grab coffee and that’s what I did.
I enjoyed eating breakfast communally with other people. At night, I was the only one there! (SOOO RELAXING!) They must have a lot of trust to leave the guests from night to dawn!
Overall, I consider this a wonderful place to stay and am thrilled to have given it a try.
If sharing spaces isn’t your thing, you might find a few «awkward» moments here and there… but you can always retreat to your room.
Love!

My boyfriend and I stayed here this past weekend and we had an amazing time. We got a room in the back of the house due to other reviews that said rooms in the front were subject to highway noise. Am so glad we did because we couldn’t hear anything. On top of that the room came with our own living room and a private entrance. The queen size bed was so comfortable we slept like babies.
The place is situated about a mile from the Square with it’s cute cafes, restaurants, shops and wine tasting rooms. Breakfast was great. Angela was very attentive to us and always asked if we wanted another helping. My only criticisim was that we didn’t have a working alarm clock in our room. But we were fine using our smart phones as an alarm. But other than that the place was very clean and tasteful décor. They also give you a free wine tasting pass to about 30 different wineries. I’d definitely stay here again and tell my friends about this place.

AMAZING experience. We went on a wine Tour and I think they said it best… Cinnamon Bear is one of the best values in all of Sonoma.
We stayed for 5 nights and were in a beautiful queen room on the ground floor with its own private entrance. The room was a cheery light yellow and the bed was very comfortable. There was also plenty of room for our luggage and lots of space in the bathroom. There was a maid service everyday, so our room stayed clean and welcoming every evening we got back.
The house itself is adorable and has a very welcoming sitting room as a well as a large, beautiful backyard complete with a jacuzzi (that was the only bummer with our stay… the jacuzzi was out of order!)
Angela and Darla were extremely welcoming and hospitable. Breakfast was delicious, just on the early side (8:30−9:30am). I don’t eat red meat or pork and they were very accommodating to my diet by thoughtfully providing veggie sausage.
The location is also very good… walking distance to Sonoma Square (about a mile, but let’s face it… when you are drinking and eating as much as you probably are on vacation, a little walk certainly does not hurt). It is also very close to Sonoma Market, Whole Foods and a 24-​hour grocery store as well as right down the street from Blue Moon Saloon (a very fun local dive bar).
They also have free Wi-​Fi and a very awesome wine card that gives you free tastings (or buy 1, get 1) in several amazing wineries.
We loved our experience here and will definitely be back!

Cute B&B near downtown Sonoma. We made a last minute reservation (within hours after some wine tasting/​late lunch) and they were able to accommodate us. We had the downstairs bedroom and it had a modern décor (no lace everywhere) with updated furniture. It was chilly out and they had the portable heater already warming up as we arrived. As another reviewer posted, there was quite a bit of noise due to the busy road but the white noise machine seemed to help some. If the noise is still keeping you up. drink more wine! After midnight it was pretty quiet. The room/​bathroom were clean and you can’t beat the room rate.
Coffee was ready by 8AM and breakfast was yummy. And Darla loves to greet everyone with hugs (both goodnight and goodbye) :) Will recommend, thanks Darla!

To date this is the best b & b experience I’ve had.
This place is awesome in every way right down to the amazing breakfast you’ll get.
You will notice how clean it is right off the bat, you will feel welcomed to the dinning room in the morning with tea and coffee and sat with others to enjoy very fine home cooked breakfast.
The location is ideal as can be, only a couple miles from the historic center of Sonoma and a grip of wineries within a few miles.
The birthday girl and I got to choose one of two rooms and we picked the ‘Sarah Vaughn’ cause it has a jet tub !
Any future trips to Sonoma will certainly include another stay at The Cinnamon Bear.

Cinnamon Bear is great! Nice rooms, very warm and homey, well decorated and perfect for an adult get away!
The location and hospitality is key! It is just a couple of miles from Sonoma Square (2 mile drive or 10 min walk) and very close to some wineries! We were there 2 nights in mid Oct (fri and sat nights) and the hostesses were very helpful! Breakfast was excellent — egg frittata in a ramekin with veggies and chorizo with crème fraîche on top. That was really really good! Side of fruit compote and English muffins. Juice, coffee, milk were set out to self serve. We only had Sat breakfast there since we had plans Sun morning. The dining room is inviting with nice china!
We used the hot tub out back, under the trees and surrounded by a lovely garden. The temp setting is locked in at lukewarm but I like my hot tub HOT. But it was a nice way to wind down with some wine!
Know that this B&B is on busy street and you can hear the road noise all night long. We’re not used to that so we turned on the fan on the AC to drown out the noise.
Will definitely go back!
