Weekend get a way for family
Our family stayed in the Rose, Garden & Sunset rooms. Since we were traveling with a baby, Keren made our visit easier by supplying a play n pac and booster chair for the baby (she even let us take the booster chair to a wedding one evening). The breakfasts were wonderful, different every day and always using fresh ingredients. Each room had comfy beds, linens, robes,ceiling fans,wine glasses & opener, nightlite and even a small dish to place your personal jewelry in at night. On Friday evening John made homemade pizza in his woodfire oven and had several wines to select from. The location was ideal, you could easily walk to restaurants, shops, and wine tasting rooms. We will definitly recommend Haydon Street Inn to our friends. John & Keren, thank you for making our stay so memorable!

Another lovely, relaxing stay!
This was our second stay at the Haydon Street Inn and it was just as great as the first! Our room was clean, comfortable and quiet, and the common areas of the inn are charming and quaint. We especially enjoy sitting on the porch swing or in a rocker in the afternoon with a glass of wine listening to the birds sing or the breeze rustling the leaves in the trees. The innkeeper, John, is a wonderful host and chef--very warm, friendly and fun to talk with. We missed the afternoon pizza, but can attest that his breakfasts are simply incredible! Everything is homemade and perfectly prepared. House-cured Canadian bacon for the Eggs Benedict! And a polenta waffle with berry compote and house-cured thick sliced bacon! Oh my! Ate every bite and would have licked the plate if it was socially acceptable! Thanks so much! We hope to be back again soon!

We had a great stay!
We thoroughly John and Karen's hospitality and the quaint charm of the Haydon Street Inn. The evening wine pairings and appetizers were great and also were a great way to meet the other guests and share our touring experiences. Breakfasts were also excellent! We stayed in the Turret Room which had plenty of room and a unique style. The location is very convenient to the plaza and the center of Healdsburg. John and Karen also gave us good recommendations on the wineries we should see

Great stay at the Haydon Inn
We had a most enjoyable time with John and Keren. The evening started out with excellent home made wood fired pizza's prepared by John and a nice wine hosting by a local winery that Keren arranged. We sat in the back yard and met some of the other guests and visited. The room was comfortable, cozy and the neighborhood very quiet. The breakfast meal was more than you could ask for; a different meal every morning-freshly made and something out of a 5 star restaurant. Wine and cheese/crackers every evening in their parlor. They were very helpful in giving advice about where to visit, explore and the best way to get there. Many complimentary wine passes too! Had a great time and we will be back for sure. Thanks John and Keren!

Thank you!
We had a wonderful couple of days at the Haydon Street Inn. It was so quiet the first night when it was just us, but really just as quiet when additional guests arrived the second night. John's breakfasts were incredible! Thank you for such a great experience in Healdsburg -- we hope to be back someday!

Great find
This B & B was in a great location 5 block walk to the plaza for restaurants and shopping. The host couple were gracious and the 6 - 7 wine hour with appetizers was a special touch. The home was beautifully appointed and comfortable. Guest room was roomy with a spacious bath

Thanks for a memorable week!
The breakfast were incredible. We especially lived the candied homemade walnuts. We were with another couple and the accomadations were perfect with our large king rooms next to each other adjoined by our little lobby. It was a private quiet area to ourselves away from the house. Thanks again for all the recommendations. We will be back!

A Delightful Evening in our Tour of Wine Country!
Both Keren and John made us feel so welcome, despite our late arrival; met them for Jazz in the Park and enjoyed wine & appetizer as well. Our room was upgraded to provide more spacious accommodation and the morning's breakfast a taste delight! Found John very helpful w/ suggestions for each group of guests after breakfast - ours was the Family Wines Tasting just north of town! Would happily return when next passing through with an overnight in the area! Thanks for such a pleasant and enjoyable experience!

beautifull home, beautifull town
Dear Karen and John, Thanks very much for your hospitality during our recent stay at the Haydon Inn. We truly enjoyed our short stay and we wished we could have stayed much longer. We particularly appreciated your warm reception, beautiful room and the many amenities you offer to your guests. The breakfast was excellent as well. Also many thanks for your help in finding an excellent dinner location and for sending us to the Michel-Schlumberger winery which was fantastic. We spent a wonderful time there visiting the property and tasting delicious wines. We're looking very much forward to a future stay. Thanks again Gilles and Paule

Great Bed and Breakfast
We really appreciated the way the owners treated us. John was very accommodating, and the breakfasts he made beat going to a restaurant. Afternoon snacks were a bonus. We enjoyed the king room in which we stayed. Great location with easy walking to main part of town, which had lots of good restaurants and wine tasting.

A beautiful weekend in Healdsburg
Our stay at your inn, together with our children Peggy (Fairfield, CA) and Michael (Fairfax, CA), plus their spouses was very much to our satisfaction. Your rooms are beautiful and comfortable, your breakfasts are most delicious and the wines and hors d'oeuvres served provided a special environment to meet some of your other guests. Thank you, Keren and John, for your service and we hope to visit you again some time soon.

Very Relaxing
We enjoyed the Victorian room as it was separate from the main house and seemed more private. The hosts were very nice and helpful with any requests. Loved !! the breakfast. Well done. My husband still raves about the breakfast. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We will be back.

Last Minute Stay in Healdsburg
We found out about the Inn from the staff at Williamson's Wines on Matheson St. The inn was a few blocks from downtown and easily within walking distance. The inn keepers/owners were accommodating and gracious hosts. There was a wine and cheese hour in the evening and a delicious 3 course breakfast followed the next morning. The candied walnuts and French pressed coffee were details that did not go unnoticed. Along with the extra touches, the house and our room/bathroom were clean and well kept. We would not hesitate to recommend this B&B or stay there again on our next visit.

wonderful get away
Perfect two night stay at Haydon Street inn. Arrived Friday with beautiful accommodations and peanut chocolate chip cookies. Slept restfully on a plush bed and took a morning 10 mile run that brought us home late for breakfast...Karen and John were more than accommodating and the breakfast was indescribably delicious. Oven fired Pizzas and a wine tasting that night and we were first to breakfast the next morning. Just a great stay!

Couldn't be better
Here's a partial list of why our stay was so great. We arrived by tandem bicycle, which Keren promptly accomodated in their garage. She generously upgraded our room because it was our anniversary. We snacked on delicious chocolate covered walnuts. She loaned us a backpack and beach towel, and we went to the lovely beach on the Russian River less than a mile away. We liked the spacious bathroom and the rainfall shower head. And breakfast was great. Overall, John and Keren are interesting people to talk with, great hosts, and run a lovely, interesting and conveniently located place.

A Pleasant Surprise
The stay there was excellent. I did not expect a bed and breakfast to have such a great breakfast. I expected something like store bought croissants, orange juice and buffet style scrambled eggs and bacon and sausage. Instead we had meals that were well thought out, cooked with pride, and one of the best breakfasts we've ever had. We loved it. I also really liked the cleanliness of the room and the new bathroom. I felt comfortable here which was also in part due to the friendliness of you guys and your housekeeping staff. Our time at the inn turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Thank you very much.

Lovely Time with John and Keren!
My wife and I loved the Pine Room at the Haydon Street Inn. The atmosphere was elegant and inviting. The breakfast was delicious! And our time in Healdsburg was special thanks to our accommodations. We will most certainly return to Healdsburg and the Haydon Street Inn!!

Great week-end in Healdsburg and the Haydon Inn
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Haydon Street Inn. Our room was tastefully furnished and quiet. We enjoyed the innkeepers as well as several of the other guests. The innkeepers were very helpful in terms of dinner reservations and friendly without being intrusive. The food was very good. We'll be back.

A wonderful home away from home!
Hayden Street Inn was a wonderful place to come "home" to after a day of wine tasting. The room was very comfortable as well as the parlor areas for the evening happy hour. However the best treat was the incredible breakfasts each morning - the presentation was lovely and the flavor outstanding! Thank you, John and Keren, for a wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay!
We had a great time staying at the Haydon Street Inn. John and Keren are great people, friendly and welcoming. We had amazing breakfasts every morning, a lovely wine hour where we could try some local vintages and homemade goodies, and then an incredibly comfortable bed to sleep on at night. The inn is a beautiful old home with lots of room and nicely furnished with antiques. The innkeepers were very helpful in suggesting wineries, making dinner reservations, and telling us about the area. The location, three blocks from the square, was ideal. I recommend this place unreservedly!

Wonderful Victorian Home
This was our second time at HSI and as the first, it was a memorable stay. Such a beautiful home inside and out. Again, John & Keren were the perfect hosts as they made our time in the wine country perfect. We've been coming up for the Russian River Barrel Tasting since 2005 and The Haydon Street Inn has been the icing on our trip. Gotta love that wood fired pizza oven. Amazing pizza!

Beautiful Weekend in Sonoma
Just came back from a wonderful, refreshing weekend in Sonoma. John and Keren are gracious hosts, very knowledgeable about the area, including wineries and restaurants. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, while the breakfasts were sumptuous. The evening wine and appetizers were fun and something we had not experienced at stays at other B&B's. Highly recommend and will definitely be back.

We have stayed there before and have never been disapointed. The breakfast is great. This is a gem of a place to stay at. Walking distance to tasting rooms and great resturants. John & Keren are welcoming and will offer suggestions on where to go and what to do if you need them.

60th Birthday Celebration & Retirement Celebration
We had an amazing time at Hayden Street Inn Celebration our good friend, Paula's 60th Birthday and my husband's retirement. This was the third time my husband and I have stayed at here, and brought our friends for the first time. We both stayed in the King Bed Room - Pine Room & Victoria Room. The decor was so beautiful. All of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are in love with the B & B. Breakfast is out of this world and so amazingly delicious with a beautiful presentation. We look forward to staying here again in the future.
