NATIONAL HOTEL & RESTAURANT is one of the California gold country's finest (continuously operated) hotels, dating back to 1859. Located in the heart of Jamestown, you will find hints of California's gold rush era at every turn. Return guests continue to visit each year for the hotel's long-standing reputation of lovingly restored accommodations, exceptional cuisine, and warm, friendly service.

Sip a glass of wine on our vine covered patio. Enjoy a gourmet dinner from our award-winning restaurant. Experience a night of peaceful slumber in our turn of the century, luxurious guest rooms. Followed by our sumptuous buffet breakfast.

The nine award-winning hotel rooms, each with private bath and friendly ghost, feature majestic brass beds with great mattresses. Special touches include fluffy comforters, oak pull chain toilets (with modern plumbing, of course). For your ultimate relaxation, the National now offers a soaking room with an antique clawfoot tub that will take you back in time and can be shared by two!

A distinctive buffet breakfast is served each morning, just another part of the hotel's famous hospitality. Homemade breads, fresh fruit platter, quiche, French toast, sliced melons, assorted cereals and juices, hard-boiled eggs, toast, cereals, and freshly brewed coffee, hot chocolate, or assorted teas along with the morning paper provide a fabulous selection for your morning fare. Dining at The National Hotel's acclaimed restaurant is a highly recommended delight.
