Du Jour Magazine Retro Revival

Originally built in 1886 as the family home for prominent Calistoga merchant James H Francis, THE Francis House, a meticulously restored 5-bedroom inn, is the newest place to stay in the wine country.

Formerly the Old Calistoga Hospital for 45 years, the new sparkling property- appointed with custom tufted headboards, European white oak floors, custom brass luggage racks and an infrared sauna and salt room, is listed in the National Register for Historic Places. All these thanks to proprietors Dina Dwyer and her husband Richard, a real estate developer and general contractor.
