Immerse yourself in wine country at these winery hotels

It’s one thing to visit wine country, it’s another to immerse yourself in it. Staying on a working vineyard at a winery hotel is the perfect way to do just that.

With every one of the 50 states in the United States producing wine, a visit to a winery hotel can easily be done – even outside of Napa Valley or Sonoma. Albeit, a stay at a winery hotel in these two regions is something not to miss… We’ve uncorked a few wonderful winery hotels throughout the country to sip in, including those in Napa Valley and Sonoma as well as some underrated wine regions – Alaska, Idaho, Colorado, New York, Washington – to help enhance your next wine country experience.

Let us know in the comments if you have other recommendations for a stay at another winery hotel. Cheers!

Wine Country Inn, Palisades, Colorado

We’re ALMOST cheating by listing the Wine Country Inn in Colorado’s wine region, the Palisades. This winery hotel is not owned and operated by a vineyard, but the Victorian style hotel sits in the middle of 21 acres of vines that produce grapes, which are crushed and bottled as the Inn’s signature label wines. And, it is adjacent to two wineries. So, it can still be deemed as a winery hotel…at least according to us.
