This downtown Yountville hotel, formerly called Hotel Luca, got a fresh new name and new look in in early 2012. Now the North Block Hotel, this boutique establishment is modern and comfortable, with kind of an industrial-chic vibe. The rooms are oriented around a central courtyard with an outdoor fireplace, an inviting spot to lounge with friends or spend some time gazing up at the stars. Their spa treatments have cheeky names like the Stiletto Blues and Hats Off, and their Pedal, Pamper and Plunge Package is not to be missed. And neither is Redd Wood, chef Richard Reddington's "superbly stylish" Italian restaurant.
