We were never told there was a charge for parking. Big surprise when we checked out. Its redicules that they charge $19 for parking. Its not like this is LA and they just don't have the space.

Definitely not a five star. We checked in at 8:45pm and were told that the kitchen closed at 9:30pm. We went straight to the restaurant and were told that kitchen was closed. The manager told us we could choose just form 4 small plates. Then we checked the room. We were given a basement with no windows. Next to the electric room that makes noise. We asked to change room. This was denied. We were given a room that should not be used as a guest room. Definitely would suggest to avoid the hotel.

This is an old court building which was not intended as a hotel. We experienced inconvenience in many ways while staying in the hotel. it is ridiculously difficult to park our car and then to check in.

I loved this hotel. Such an interesting history. It is located in convenient walking distance to downtown. The interior is decorated beautifully in the art deco style. From the crisp cotton sheets to the high ceilings it’s all lovely. The staff are friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend.

Staff is great and the aesthetic of the hotel is wonderful. We’ve stayed before and had no problems, but this time had issues with tv connectivity and some room cleanliness concerns- slow drain, stains on shower tile, dried food stuck to inside of info card, for example. The Darling is a hotel with character and I hope these small items were a one-off occurrence, we have loved staying here in the past.

A wonderful find, quite the special hideaway.

After a long day at Sequoia National Park we had a disappointing experience somewhere else and I found The Darling was 20 minutes from Three Rivers and booked the room - couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised. Great staff, beautiful hotel, impeccably kept... my wife couldn't have been happier. We had a great evening with a nightcap from The Elderwood upstairs and return to the Elderwood in the morning for breakfast. This fabulous hotel isn't just a nice place to stay, it's kind of a nice experience... A great place to just go and get away. We agreed to come back just to spend a couple of days of rest and relaxation in a beautiful environment with a great restaurant.
