About Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa
Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa in California offers a luxurious hot springs experience nestled in the heart of Sonoma Valley. Its geothermal mineral pools warm you to a soothing 115°F, providing a perfect retreat after exploring nearby vineyards or golf courses. This historic resort blends early 20th-century architecture with modern amenities to create a welcoming, elegant atmosphere.
Getting There
You can drive directly to the inn, with ample parking available on-site, making access effortless. Located about an hour from San Francisco, Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa avoids the hassle of long hikes often associated with natural springs. This ease of arrival suits visitors looking for comfort alongside the healing waters.
What to Expect
The resort features five mineral pools, each offering a serene setting to relax and soak in the warm, calming water. The pools are clothing required, maintaining a refined environment ideal for rejuvenation. With spa services, farm-to-table dining, and beautifully maintained grounds, the atmosphere practices upscale tranquility rather than a wilderness experience common to many California swimming holes.
Tips for Visitors
Plan your visit year round as you’ll find the pools inviting even in cooler seasons. Day passes are available if you're not staying overnight, but booking ahead is recommended due to popularity. Bringing a swimsuit, water shoes, and a towel will prepare you for a hassle-free day in one of the premier hot springs in California.
