This is a one of a kind, there a true sense of a welcoming "close family"warmth, comfort and spirit "like you were somehow meant to be here". The place is immaculately maintained and every inch is clean and truly charming. There is a glass of wine, a bowl of peanut M & M's (my weakness) a friendly genuine smile from... More

We first stayed at the Grateful Bed years ago. After one stay at the charming and beautifully appointed Grateful Bed, and meeting proprietors Carol and Rick Turner, we cannot imagine staying anywhere else, and have visited a couple of times a year ever since. Carol's sense of taste and talent is everywhere, and Rick's sense of humor adds a lightness... More

We stayed at the Grateful Bed for the Chico Wildflowers ride. All the guest staying at the inn that weekend were doing the ride. Since the ride starts early in the morning I wasn't counting on a breakfast on Sunday morning. However, Carol and Rick rise to the occasion and serve us a wonderful, bountiful meal at around 6:30 A.M.... More

We stayed here for a couple of nights during our trip around California. This was one of nicest places we stayed on our trip and definitely the most homely. The warm welcome from our hosts on our arrival set the the tone for the stay in their gorgeous home. The room itself was beautifully decorated and the attention to detail... More

We've stayed at many B&B's across the country with many gracious hosts but Rick and Carole at the Grateful Bed were the most friendly, interesting, and accommodating hosts we've had. When we arrived before check-in time, Rick saw us on the porch and invited us in. Carole showed us the house and our rooms and offered us drinks. We sat... More

We visited Chico in November of 2009 to have a small marriage ceremony and a mini honeymoon. Chico's Bidwell Park was a perfect location for the ceremony, and the Grateful Bed was an outstanding B&B! From the well adorned rooms, to the incredibly thoughtful breakfasts (each of our 4 meals featured heart shaped foods), we were delighted with every aspect... More

We are looking forward to our third stay at The Grateful Bed. Our past two experiences have been excellent. The achitecture of the inn, tasteful interior, spotless rooms, delicious breakfast, and the perfect hosts make for a wonderful stay. More

Hidden gem in Chico, good B&B in a nice neighbourhood close to the city. Room was small, but beautifully decorated with big bathroom and very good bed. Common area very comfortable. Hosts Carol and Rick are extremely friendly and we had very good discussions with them. Breakfast was one of the best ever! The only minus comes from the map... More

My wife and I stayed in the smallest room and it was big enough for our needs. The hosts, Carole and Rick, are charming, genuinely welcoming, and ready for a chat anytime. For some reason, they are both terrible about giving accurate driving directions, a minor fault. The common area is charming. The two breakfasts were among the best we... More
