We stayed at the Chien Blanc over Thanksgiving 2011 with friends. Pros are its great location near the center of town and the spacious accommodations - they are basically one bedroom town homes. They are also very clean, and provide free WiFi. A major drawback is the dated facilities. And I don't just mean the decor - I mean everything,... More

Pros: - we traveled with a group and it was nice to be able to be next door to them. - pet friendly - kitchenette - more spacious than a hotel - walkability to downtown Calistoga - WiFi came in and out, but mostly worked Cons: - decor is lacking at best. It's like walking into your eclectic grandmother's house... More

We staying at this property at the end of May this year and loved it! It was clean and charming. The furnishings were eclectic and homey. We prefer lodging with character and this place had a lot of character. We loved the convenience of having a kitchen and we even used the washer and dryer, even though we were only... More

First, the pluses: Our bungalow was very clean inside. The bed was comfy. The shower was hot. Judy was wonderful. Location within short walking distance to town. Even though guests at Chien Blanc aren't "entitled" to the breakfast served at the adjoining property (Chelsea Garden which incidentally is owned by the same people) for some reason we were allowed to...

We stayed at Chien Blanc with 2 other couples which was perfect because we were the only ones on the property. We all gathered outside in the garden or in the game room, and had complete privacy while in our bungalows. The rooms were very clean, comfortable and cozy. We loved how each bungalow was decorated in a fun and... More

We stayed in a little bunglow named " Avignon". The place was very nicely decorated and really cozy and comfortable. The kitchen was clean and well-equipped so we did some cooking. :o) The unit had air conditioning and a heater. They also provide free WiFi which is very useful. Its also dog-friendly so our furry babies were very comfortable. People... More

My wife and I stayed at Chien Blanc with two other couples that we were traveling with and very much enjoyed our stay. The location is ideal, very near the grocery store and only two blocks from downtown. The outdoor seating area and gameroom made for excellent gathering areas for our group while the individual units gave each couple plenty... More

We stayed in the Bateau unit, and found it to be pleasant enough. The Chien Blanc appears to be exist in a 3-unit-apartment, that is now used for overnight accomodations, rather than month-to-month tenant occupancy. We stayed in the Bateau, the front unit closest to the street. Kitchen is well-supplied with dishes, the bathroom is small and dated, we were... More

We stayed in the cottage called Bateau. It was comfortable and funky, a very fun place. However, we had just come from Monterey where we stayed in a B&B called the "Old Monterey Inn" for essentially the same price (within 30 dollars for the night), and there was no comparison. We would give our experience a "4" if we had... More
