The Best Western Cloverdale Inn is a great place to rest your head when the action gets to be too much. Choose from one of 62 Spartan, but adequate and clean rooms. There’s also the Hopland Inn, a 21-room Victorian home-turned-hotel, where each room is individually decorated and waiting to provide you a memorable visit to Hopland. The room may lack the modern conveniences of traditional hotels, but it makes up for it in charm and class.
There is food aplenty at the Hopland Sho-Ka-Wah Casino, where you’ll find three restaurants.
