About Our Napa Valley Hotel

Silverado Resort and Spa is an enchanting retreat in the heart of Napa Valley. Set on 1,200 rolling acres of oak groves and vineyards, we combine luxurious accommodations with state-of-the-art business facilities, world-class dining, full-service spa experiences, and endless recreational possibilities both onsite and in the surrounding valley. Silverado offers two PGA championship golf courses, along with tennis, pools, bocce, hiking, biking, and more.

Located just off the Silverado Trail just north of the city of Napa, the resort is about an hour north of San Francisco and easy access to the San Francisco Bay Area.
