I have stayed here at least 6 times in the past 6-7 years. Our experience was initially an incredible 5 -Star, but the hotel features and service from the owner in particular is declining. We have stayed in 3 of their rooms over the years. Each time furniture, curtains, and upkeep on fixtures, wall cracks, lights and floors on this historic space is noticeably neglected, or removed. Their historic basement jail and cellar do not have the same historic pictures, items, and upkeep it once had. The main reason I am posting is because the owner was behind the bar counter when we arrived this time

I have it on good authority that the kitchen at this restaurant is NOT understaffed, meaning there is no excuse for this kind of neglect. Three of us had dinner. There were "no shrimp in the house" after server described the wonders of the firecracker shrimp appetizer. One of us popped for a beef filet--to be served medium rare. It came out 1) cut into pieces, 2) slate gray through and through, 3) drier than British humor, and 4) so hard it could have been used as a doorstop. One of us ordered a burger--witch was botched and had to be redone before leaving the kitchen. Unlike the far

Lost our reservations at the last moment.
My mother had made reservations for a fifth Friday (The Woody Show) along with the Saturday following, months in advance and had been calling the establishment regularly to verify her reservations and to see if coronavirus restrictions had been lifted to the extent that live music would resume in the bar. She was planning on staying that Friday and Saturday nonetheless, also to visit the Renegade Winery down the street. She called to verify reservations one last time today only to find out that there is now no record of her reservation in their computer

Quaint, creaky and nostalgic hotel that supplies ear plugs for the rowdier nights. Restaurant is very good, hand's down, one of the best prime rib dinners I ever had. Good water pressure and plenty of hot water come out of an old vegas hotel style showerhead that hurts and the beds are hard as hell so come here for the vibe, not the comfort.

As long as you know what to expect of this hotel, you will have a fine experience. We saw it on Ghost Adventures so decided to travel from Sacramento and check it out. The hotel is unfortunately dilapidated. It's too bad it's not better cared for because the bones and the history are awesome! It was clean enough - no bugs, nothing disgusting, had hot water. It's just very old, the bed was horribly uncomfortable and it was very noisy until late at night. No TV, no coffee maker. If you're ok with these things, then don't hesitate to stay here. We went for the experience,

Checked out this funky historic hotel when I wanted a little getaway to force myself to do my taxes. Loved walking the quiet, history filled streets during my down time to clear my head. Enjoyed the hotel so much I brought my partner back in May to watch the sunset from the wrap around porch balcony and dine in the saloon. Backyard pool and terrace oasis was absolutely charming too. No ghosts to speak of, although can you hear lots of sounds from the staff through the old walls and fireplaces. Ear plugs are provided, although creaking floors and vintage furniture really make me smile and are definitely

Although hard to believe today, Moke Hill actually had a very wild and interesting history. Outlaw Joaquin Murrieta used to hang out here (that was before he got killed, got his head chopped off and pickled in a jar) and the store keepers built tunnels under the street so that their respectable customers could cross the street between their establishments without getting robbed, stabbed or shot in the street above. It's a lot safer than that now though
Anyway, don't expect 5 star luxury at this only hotel in a one horse town, because your experience will be more 1850s than even 1950s

This review is about the restaurant, there are plenty about the hotel. We were recommend to this hotel/restaurant by the owner of the B&B that we stay at.
The good part....the clam chowder was excellent. Very rich and tasty.
The bad part: the prime rib dinner. Whatever thoughts you have of a tender, delicious and tasty piece of prime rib.....forget it. If you want to resole your shoes, or, use it as a blackjack to knock someone out, this is it. My wife ordered well done...she could only eat 1/4 of it, since it was so tough and loaded with fat. My medium rare also had generous portions of

We went on a Friday night for our Anniversary, it was absolutely wonderful.
Our waitress was Laurie/Lori(?) She was very welcoming and efficient. One pleasant surprise was that Chef Louie came out to greet all of the guests, something one never sees anymore. The Hotel Ledger is reportedly the oldest continuously functioning hotel in California, established in 1841! The prime rib is locally sourced and the vegetables from a local farm. The meat was a very large portion (not their largest portion) and cooked to perfection! We will definitely be returning!

Came here for a wedding. It was held in the back on the lawn next to the pool. This was a great wedding venue. Dinner was served as well as drinks. There was a dance floor and a DJ.
I got to go in the basement and see the catacombs. Very interesting. I watched the Hotel Impossible episode and this years ago. I'm glad they are still in business and doing good.

We found this place to be so charming. Its over 150 yrs old, so yes it has creaky floors and drafty windows and doors. It also has water stains from past leaks on the ceiling and peeling paint due to the lack of a vent fan in the bathroom, but that's what you deal with in order to keep the charm of such an old building. We were pleased with the staff, cleanliness, and the pet friendly policy. We stayed in Room 1 with a working fireplace, patio access (through the window, how cool) and a private full bath. It was lovely. There was a continental breakfast served in the morning as well.
So check

I've now stayed in this hotel a couple of times while in the area for business, and the service is always fabulous and friendly. The restaurant downstairs has great food--and while the floors creak in such an old building, the hotel is well-insulated, scenic, and very relaxing after a long day of work.
I've also been very pleased with the quality of the wireless, which can sometimes be spotty in historic hotels but has been very reliable for me.

I have not stayed at the hotel but I have been here many times to eat and have a cocktail at the bar. The liquor prices are great. I think last time I was there I had a craft pint of beer and two cocktails for $13.
The staff have always been nice and helpful and the food is good enough that I keep coming back. It is a very old hotel, rumored to be haunted. But aren't they all? Don't expect anything modern here. Part of the charm of coming here is the antiquity of it all.

I haven't been able to stay in the hotel yet, but my experience so far has been very pleasant! Quite some months back, my friend & I were up in Moke Hill to visit Renegade Winery across the street, but they hadn't yet opened for the day. We decided to have a Bloody Mary at the hotel's bar. There were only a few patrons there, and as we were drinking, I mentioned how good some grilled shrimp would be with the Bloody Mary.
We went exploring for a few minutes, and when we returned to the bar, there were a few warm shrimp plated & waiting for us! The bartender explained that

This place is AMAZING!!!
I have stayed here several times over the past decade. Its decor and furniture are mostly historic, even has creaky floors!!! I really like that there are no tv or phones in the rooms. Some rooms have access to the balcony where you can sit and read a book or enjoy an amazing sunset. The courtyard is beautiful and has a lovely pool that is never crowded. Each room here is unique so you can stay in a different room each time you visit!!!
I love this historical hotel; I loved it soooo much I had my wedding reception here in 2007. The staff at the Leger were wonderful
