Victoria Inn

Wonderful charming experience for a quick getaway. Great breakfast, centralized on the Main Street and super dining options in and out. They have the coolest Loft down the street.

The Inn is a very unique place to stay. Having its pros and cons just like anything else I would recommend this Inn!

I should have read the reviews closer. For some reason, upon searching for reviews, I found mostly positive ones for this property. We booked a stay here Sunday to Monday in the «Anniversary Suite». The room itself was generally comfortable, but had major issues and in no way justified the price they charge.
Amongst the issues:
— Noise. The bar/​restaurant wasn’t a problem. The restaurant closing up and bottles being tossed into recycle bins after 9:30 at night for 5 – 10 minutes was. Paper thin walls. Had to close the bathroom door because every plumbing feature that went off near by, you heard the pipes. Street noise — garbage day is apparently on Monday and that happens prior to 7am. While not the fault of the property, per say, the paper thin walls contributed to us hearing a baby screaming pretty much all night (even at 3:30am).
— The blinds (or lack there of). The Anniversary Suite has a balcony. The property also has two bright white outdoor lights pointing up the roof back into the room. As other have stated, the room has no real blinds. I ended up finding a heavy blanket and tossing it over some of the windows to cut out the majority of the light. The room still wasn’t suitably dark for a small town up in the mountains. Calls to the after hours front desk went unanswered.
— The bed. The mattress was comfortable, but, well, better make sure the 6″ gap between the mattress and the head board don’t eat your pillow.
— General dilapidation. It is pretty clear that the property owners/​managers do not actually care about property upkeep. Furnishing that had giant rips in the upholstery get covered up with a blanket or heavy fabric. The shower tile could use cleaning. The molding around the upper part of the shower tile stood out ¼ — ¹⁄₃ of an inch from the tile. Maybe to match the mattress not meeting the headboard.
I mentioned the above upon checkout. The woman working the desk was apologetic, but the manager was surprisingly not around. I asked her to have him give me a call. It hasn’t happened.
I will not be returning to this property nor would I recommend it to anyone else. Maybe at ¹⁄₃ of the price, but not for what they charge.

I’ve stayed here before in one of the nice rooms overlooking the beautiful V Bistro courtyard just off Main Street. However, the recently remodeled eucalyptus room is absolutely stunning! We enjoyed a quiet weekend held up in the great space they have created here. We hosted family and friends and really enjoyed ourselves. I would definitely recommend this hotel and especially this room if you want something spacious or to entertain. It’s like having your own luxury cabin! The owners live and breathe their business and serve their customers outstandingly. Don’t pass up the V Bistro downstairs either. Perhaps, the best food in town!

This hotel was perfect for us. Centrally located and within walking distance to everything. The lady that checked us in was wonderful. The gal at the bar downstairs was so full of energy and so welcoming. We would stay here again and again.

Although they were very kind to reserve a parking spot for my disabled husband right by our room, that was about the extent of the good. The room needed a good dusting and airing out. There was an air freshner plugged in the wall, but you could tell it had been there for several months because it was empty and had tons of dust on it. The mirrors, bathroom, fans, everything needed a good cleaning. We ended up not even staying, choosing to drive back home. This was our first bed and breakfast stay… never again! Not there anyway…

The saying about being old and quaint I usually go for but old and not taken care of is another thing. The hotel is very over priced for what you receive. No televelvison, and the patio over looks the restaurant so you feel like the entertainment for the diners below. Even when you are inside you can hear all of the conversation below. The parking is bad too. You will get a better deal if you stay at the Travel Lodge in Angel Camp.
The hotel is in a great location in the center of town. Easy to walk to great food and wine tasting. Murphy’s is an awesome little town.

Stayed here once during the fall, room was small. I would say this is an OK hotel, but overpriced. They also offer other vacation rentals. I highly recommmend «The Loft on Main». I’ve stayed at this rental several times and it’s fantasic, only draw back is when Realty World stopped managing this rental the price more then doubled per night. We paid $ 150 a night, now it’s $ 375– Crazy expensive. What a shame that a greedy property management co now runs this adorble loft. Won’t go through Victoria Inn for a room or a vacation rental.

Grossly stained rug, had to ask for towels, broken bathroom sink drain, a/​c controlled by neighboring room, supposed wifi nonfunctional, no screens on window so we couldn’t open window to stuffy room without mosquitoes attacking, and worst of all, the very dislikable owner/​manager (?) as I write this is in hour four of his very loud drunken dinner party outside our front door. This was my second try for this place. There will not be a third.

The room would have been a 4 star room, but when we arrived, it was NOT clean — cob webs everywhere, bathroom had a dirty floor and a silver fish in the sink area, there was a stain on the bed sheets, internet connection was practically non existent (5+ minutes to load any web page), and the batteries to the TV remotes were all dead. Then when we turned in our keys and told these things to the person at the front desk, it sounded like she was listening to our complaints, and then said «thanks for staying with us» with NO indication that we would receive a discount for our less than optimal experience. When we were billed today for the 2^nd half of our total room bill with no discount, it was clear that this information was dismissed, bumping you down to 2 stars. The only saving grace that keeps this review at 2 stars was that the grounds were very nice (beautiful fall trees all around, quiet area, rushing creek nearby).
We absolutely would NOT stay here again.

Very nice Inn. Right off of Main Street which makes it convenient to walk to a lot of stores. We stayed in an upstairs room that had a balcony. They also have a small breakfast downstairs on weekend mornings. We will be back!

Although we had some trouble getting to sleep until after 2.a.m because of Cactus Jack’s (see review), the Inn’s owner did what he could to rectify an unfortunate situation. We will be back, but thanks to Cactus Jack’s we won’t be staying here on Friday or Saturday nights. The room was clean, the staff polite and welcoming, and the location is ideal for exploring the shops and storefront tasting rooms in downtown Murphy’s.

The inn is nice and the staff is very friendly. I was initially disappointed by our room, the «skyview». Their online description boasted a claw foot tub in front of a floor to ceiling window. Well they didn’t lie, but they neglect to say the big window has a view of A WALL that is about 5 feet away. Not exactly what I was imagining. On the positive, the inn is located smack dab in the middle of Murphys with the whole town within walking distance. They provided a very nice continental breakfast in the lobby with outdoor seating.

This place is TOP NOTCH and luxurious! Loved our room with super soft linens and bedding — loved the pillows so much that I bought some for our home when we returned. Every room either has a claw-​foot tub or jacuzzi tub — we stayed in room 11, which was small but super nice — balcony overlooking the courtyard. No one was in room number 7, so we were able to look around. Definitely staying in #7 next time! HUGE room, beautiful decorations, neat patio overlooking the courtyard, and a huge jacuzzi jet tub in the bathroom! :) Continental breakfast was great — cereals, bagels, lox, oatmeal, fresh pastries, coffee and juice — a huge selection of food. Definitely going back to this place if I’m ever in the area again!

I think this would have been a 5-​star if it hadn’t been Murphys Irish Day — this place was slammed, and while the staff did they best they could, they were overwhelmed and service suffered. But, we weren’t in a hurry, and they were very nice, and it was a beautiful day to sit outside on the veranda.
The food was incredible… the Devil-​something appetizer, a date stuffed with blue cheese wrapped with bacon and then caremelized… bacon dessert. Seriously. All of the other food we ordered was tasty and well prepared, though we were a little disappointed with the Proscuitto flat-​bread… it was kind of blah, and the crust was wimpy.
This is a definite planned return though. Thanks for a nice afternoon, Rose!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. The staff were very friendly and helpful, it is in the heart of all the Main Street shops and wineries, and is very beautiful. We stayed in the ‘Skyview’ which was very small– I wouldn’t stay in this room again (at least not with a baby in tow!). I peeked in two other rooms as they were being cleaned though (Sycamore and Opi’s Cabin), and they were much more spacious. We will be coming back. In fact, I am planning a «girls trip» with my MIL & SILs for the summer!

Adequate accommodations. Check in was a breeze. Check out was a bit chaotic as the person didn’t even arrive until after 930a! Not good for the guest who needs to check-​out before then.
Rooms are spacious but sparse in décor. Loved the garden house master bedroom bathroom. Would rent this 2-​bedroom room again. Full kitchen and second bathroom located right outside second bedroom.

A friend recommended the Victoria Inn, and we wanted a fun 2 night vacation. We were not disappointed. We came mid week in July without a reservation because I wanted to see the rooms before choosing which one we wanted. The staff was so nice and let us look at all the available rooms, then threw in a 10% discount. We chose #9 the Sycamore. The shower is awesome!
At first, once we moved all of our stuff and settled in, we could hear all the clattering of dishes and chatter of the restuarant patrons downstairs. I was worried that it would go on all night. Be assured that even in the high season the restuarants close by 9 and the noise ends by 9:30.
The breakfast was more than adequate and the cookies, brownies, coffee and tea available ²⁴⁄₇ is a nice touch. You can’t beat the location.
If we come back to Murphy’s we would stay here again.

While I had high hopes for this place, we were very disappointed with the overall quality of the inn while the price was quite high. We’re came to Murphy’s for a wedding, and this was supposed to be the nicest place to stay.
While I’m OK with country charm and character, for $ 200/​night I expect a few things. We stayed in room Doris, one of the nicer ones with a king bed. For one, it was very loud in our room. Between hearing street noise, the restaurant downstairs and just hallway noise our sleep and privacy were both disturbed all the time. Next, the bed, while it was a king it was not the most comfortable bed, the pillows were quite bad, and there wasn’t even a mattress cover on there, the lines were this off white dingy color and just didn’t feel crisp and clean, the blankets were this old duvets that you know are never washed and are a hygienic nightmare. The temperature to the room was controlled outside and it for some reason controlled several rooms, very inconvenient to deal with at night or frankly anytime.
The bathroom was big, but the shower over the whirlpool tub was a bit trashy and there was lots of visible mold in the shower and jets, so forget actually using the tub. The handle for the hot water also was broken and fell off once.
There is no phone or TV in the room, but there is wifi.
The breakfast was basically continental so we didn’t eat there and ate at the restaurant which is quite good, but when we booked it the description made it sound like a full breakfast was included. I’ve stayed in B&Bs where full breakfast was berries and omelets made to order, that’s what I expected here.
I’m not sure if this town has any better accommodations, but this place could be greatly improved with a remodel, it’s a shame that in towns like this standards fall short.

Just spent another awesome weekend here. I love this inn so much! The rooms are done up in an old-​fashioned style complete with antique furniture. We always stay in room #4. It’s just the right size, with the most comfy bed ever. The bathroom is awesome… sure, the jets in the tub are still broken, but bring bubble bath and you won’t care. It’s HUGE. Extra points for the cool old-​fashioned wooden high-​tank terlet with brass pipes (but good god does that thing flush loud). The only bad thing is that the parking lot is so small.
