"Historic beauty, ambiance, warmth, charm, comfort are only a few of the
words I would use to describe this wonderful, old hotel right in the
heart of main street Placerville. On a whim, my fiancé and I decided to
get married on Christmas Day and found the lobby next to the tree and
underneath one of the gorgeous stained glass windows to be the perfect
setting to exchange vows. The staff was incredibly nice (thank you,
Chester) and we had such a warm reception to the idea and the event
which only involved 5 people and a bottle of sparkling wine. We only had
time to spend on night but are looking forward to returning. Our room,
the Madeira, was furnished for the time and was like stepping into my
grandmother's house without the musty smells. The bed was heaven, our
garden view room had windows we could actually open. Aside from sleeping
too late that morning and missing most of the hot water for a shower -
it was still pleasantly warm and a 100 plus year old hotel for goodness
sake! - the stay was beyond perfect. I could have spent one entire day
looking at everything in the lobby alone. It was like a home with museum
quality art and furniture. Fun time, great staff, great little town.
Thank you Cary House Hotel for making our wedding so memorable. I am
highly recommending your hotel to all of my friends and anyone else who
will listen!!"
