  • Our stay at the Benbow Inn was wonderful. We had an issue getting our car to charge, and Ray went out of his way to help us. His customer service was really above and beyond, and he saved the day for us!
  • Absolutely exceptional stay here! My wife & I couldn’t be happier with the service from the team here at Benbow Historic Inn. Down to earth people where you’re greeted with a smile and a kind greeting. 11/10, when we travel America again for the redwoods, we will definitely be staying here for a 2nd time. Thank you! Cheers, Jacob & Paige.
  • It’s a wonderful old hotel. I’ve wanted to stay there for 50 years and I finally got to. I was not disappointed. Great food, great grounds to walk around, and a great experience. We loved it.
