Gunn House Hotel

Founded in 1850 by Dr. Lewis C. Gunn, our historic hotel represents a unique blend of California Gold Rush heritage and modern hospitality. Originally constructed as an adobe home and newspaper office, we've meticulously preserved our historic character while enhancing guest comfort with contemporary amenities. Our team combines decades of hospitality experience with a deep commitment to maintaining this architectural treasure. All 25 uniquely furnished guest rooms feature period antiques, premium bedding, and modern private bathrooms, reflecting our dedication to quality and comfort. As a central hub for local exploration, we provide expert guidance to nearby attractions including Yosemite National Park, Columbia State Historic Park, and Railtown 1897.

Our award-winning breakfast service, featuring fresh-baked goods starting at 5:00 AM, has become a signature guest experience. Situated in historic downtown Sonora, our property offers convenient access to shopping, dining, and cultural attractions while maintaining a tranquil atmosphere. The hotel's central location makes it an ideal base for business travelers, wedding guests, and vacationers seeking authentic California history with modern comforts.
