Nice room friendly staff

2.0 / 10.0

Big disappointement with the room, far to expensive for the quality of the room. Only one night light by the bed with a very dirty and disintegrating shade, I paid for a kitchenette with no silverware pots or pans. Room decor does not fit the historic building. Not a hotel to recommend.

1.0 / 10.0

Hotel is a dump, smells gross, doors don’t fully close. It’s surrounded by bars so at 2am loud drunks come out yelling and one puked under our window. Parking is 2 blocks away. Downtown Placerville is a cool little town, but there has got to be a better option.

4.0 / 10.0

Location was great, bed was decent, shower was good. Friendly staff. This whole hotel could use a refurbish. I know it’s a historic building, but the fittings in the room were neither Gold Rush-era historic nor up-to-date. The whole building had a dusty musty smell. Aside from these minor complaints it was a decent value for the price.

4.0 / 10.0

We’ve stayed in room 302 several times and we like it. The room was warm and comfortable and the beds were great. The condition of the room was in need of some minor upkeep. It’s a two bedroom room but there was only one chair to sit in. I used the chair from the desk and it wasn’t great but we managed. The kitchen was stocked with odd, mismatched plates, glasses, forks, spoons, etc. I would have liked a toaster and salt/pepper. We had to ask for dish soap and a kitchen towel. There were no paper towels, sponge, scrubber… There was a matching set of pots/pans. The fridge worked well. The staff were all very friendly and fun to talk to. We’ll be back, we love the Cary House.

Rooms are two star and need some TLC but staff is friendly and the hotel has charm.

My room had no air conditioning; my phone and tv don’t work; and most times there isn’t a receptionist to help with problems! Worst experience ever and cost me $250 a night! NEVER will I ever book a room here!!!!

3.0 / 10.0

The kitchen had no supplies whatsoever but that was ok. We bought some utensils and plates at the hardware store across the street. The big problem was that there is no AC in October apparently and the room was extremely hot. They gave us two fans to use and that helped but there was no way to keep the windows open to get a breeze. Our little room was sweltering during the day!

8.0 / 10.0

This is a lovely old hotel, from the beautiful stained glass to the original elevator. The staff was helpful and pleasant. All was very clean. The electrical outlet in our bathroom, however, did not work. Some of the repairs that had been made in our room was poor workmanship. Enjoyed our stay none the less.

2.0 / 10.0

Only one window would open and only after great effort. The rest were screwed shut. It being CA, the hotel only had heat and no AC was available a this time of year. Staff was super nice. Great location.

The townspeople, and the Hotel staff were amazing and kind. The bed we slept in however, was very uncomfortable! Still a great stay though. We’d love to return soon.

I really enjoy staying here because I love that I can walk to VibesUp store and the Enchanted Forest Restuarant - the Hotel is historic but very well kept, clean and quaint- so much fun each time I visit with friends for a wonderful experience in downtown Placerville. The staff is beyond wonderful, and I love that the elevator still working and surprising us with a different experience each and every ride is FUN!!!

10.0 / 10.0

Great historic property and central to everything in Placervile. Old building, so heat/cooling is tricky, and with hard wood floors, it was a little chilly but extra blankets provided. Squeeky floors, loud door and old windows with lots of street noise, but all to be expected. Well equipped and fun to stay at such an old hotel with so much history.

3.0 / 10.0

This was a very unusual experience. The hotel is historic and very convenient to the quaint downtown. The hotel elevator is probably the oldest you will ever use. It has an uncomfortable bump when it lands. The floor in the lobby near the elevator is uneven and presented a fall hazard. The bedroom was very small, but there was a separate siting room. There was a kitchenette in the sitting room, but there wasn't a table where you could sit around to enjoy a meal or snack. The carpet felt dirty. We couldn't figure out the two TV remote setup, and the problem was immediately solve when we let the office know.

Lovely stay, but the toilet was almost unusable as it was so low. Otherwise we loved it. Host was delightful and so very helpful!!!

We spent the day in Apple Hill, and checked in at 3:30. We walked up and down the quaint Main Street of Placerville, and had dinner at a restaurant that was recommended by the hotel. Dinner at Brick's was yummy, and a short stroll from the Hotel. We slept well and got up and went to coffee at Cuppa in the morning. The only small issue we had was the trash being collected at 5:30 am, (This is a city issue, not hotel) Enjoy your stay

We have stayed at the Historic Cary House for many years while visiting wine country near Placerville. It is very convenient and walkable to Main Street restaurants and to regional wineries. The hotel is clean and quiet. The front desk manager is very helpful.

So cool to step back in time. The room was clean, beds comfortable and the staff was helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this spot.

10.0 / 10.0

I love this property with is old fashioned furnishings, staircase , and elevator that can only hold two people. Traveling as a group of three friends the two bedroom unit met our requirements. It would be great for a family. Only drawback was seeing a homeless person sleeping in the alley next to the hotel.

we like the Cary house for our getaway to the wine country in Plymouth area. Generally, the weather is good, but this weekend was up to 100 degrees. Across the street is a nice little public house restaurant which had good bites and beer choice and meal choices. We went to the Buttercup Pantry restaurant for breakfast and that was also very good. It is the old part of town so there is some history that is interesting. Thank you Placerville.

It's over a 170 yrs old. It's Historic and it's dated. It's also rumored that it's haunted. Its not a resort and amenities are limited. Everything is in walking distance. You are smack dab in the middle of Placerville. Huge plus. Convenient. Staff is friendly and helpful.

3.0 / 10.0

If you are just wanting a historical experience, this is a good stay. The lobby is beautifully rich in history. The rooms are very dated and small. The plumbing is questionable. The lady that checked us in was very kind. However, I really didn't see anyone else and we were there 2 nights.

10.0 / 10.0

We always stay at the Cary House when we visit Placerville. It's within 15 minutes drive to great wineries, you're across the street from great restaurant's and the local shops are charming. We enjoy taking a stroll around the town after dinner and look in the shop windows. Maybe on day we will even encounter a ghost!

Happy with property not so happy with hotel.com not letting me use my gift card or being reachable by phone- finally get a human and still can’t use the gift card The property was was very nice just be aware of the elevator, it’s old and they tell you to watch your step and I forgot and tripped but there’s a VibesUp store nearby and they fixed my sore knee quickly!

The front desk staff, especially Carly, was really helpful. She even came to our room to help us with the tv remote and air conditioning. The only downside was nighttime noise from the nearby highway.
