Weaverville Hotel, Weaverville, California

The Weaverville Hotel and Emporium has within a two block radius, a gym (guests have gym privileges), a coffee house, several good restaurants, two antique stores, the recently renovated Trinity Theatre, several art galleries, the historic Chinese Joss House, and the Jake Jackson Museum and Blacksmith. There are several interesting shops as well, including our own 1,000 sq. ft. Emporium featuring fine chocolates, old books and photos, antique reproduction silver jewelry and collectibles, European fragrances and soaps, retro-style clothing, and other gift items.

The hotel, originally built in 1861, was last rebuilt in 1880 after burning to the ground. We have painstakingly restored it to the original high ceilings and wood floors, attempting to recapture as much of the original charm as possible. The building is on the National Register of historic places. Please be advised that there is no smoking permitted inside the building. Also, if you can’t live without a T.V., this might not be the place for you

Named after Trinity County gold mines, all the rooms have private showers, air conditioners, heaters, ceiling fans, hair dryers, radio/cd players, and coffee makers. A refrigerator with a limited amount of ice is available in the store-room across from Room 2. A telephone is available to our guests in the telephone booth at the top of the stairs. Sorry, no televisions except in Room 1, and downstairs in the small lounge behind the parlor. By order of the Fire Marshall, there is no smoking inside the hotel, but there are several swings and comfortable rocking chairs available on the porch, along the side of the hotel for guests’ use and enjoyment.” Rates are lower during the week than on week-ends, quite a bit lower in the winter time than during the summer.
