The North Block Hotel

After our successful holiday party, Ken and I flew to San Francisco for Christmas (and other festivities!). Since it was a cross country flight and the holidays, we decided to buy first class tickets so we could sleep on both the way there and the way back. We started off with some champagne:

And ate dinner soon after – the appetizer was a Mediterranean platter with hummus, a kale salad and some cold cuts:

The movie I ended up watching was Straight Outta Compton (a definite watch – Ken and I both loved it). For dinner, we ate chicken and mashed potatoes:

The flight was smooth and much shorter than I remembered and we landed in San Francisco around 11pm. Right after, we drove to In-N-Out on our way to Napa and we drove straight to Napa (and arrived around 12:30am!). We rented a room at the North Block Hotel (where our friend, Tuesday, was married last year!) The hotels look like townhouses:

There’s one room on the first floor and one on the second – we stayed in a really nice room with a very comfortable bed:

In front of the door, there was a little seating area for you to enjoy your wine:

And a luxurious bathroom with heated floors:

Their lobby/checkin area was decorated for the holidays with upside down Christmas trees and lots of cool coffee table books:

They also have a gym (next to their spa on the lower level) and a very cute black lab that walks around the lobby during the day with the manager. We had such a wonderful stay (and it’s so close to everything in Yountville so we were able to eat in town while we were there). We can’t wait to go back!
