Napa River Inn, in Napa Valley, California, is a historic hotel dating from 1884. It is located on the Napa River within part of the historic Napa Mill, which is now also a commercial establishment with dining, shopping, spa treatments, and entertainment.[1]
In 1884 or 1886 Captain Albert Hatt used the mill as a warehouse for serving local vineyards. The Napa River Inn was built inside the historic Napa mill building in the 1990s, "with interior design inspiration coming from the renowned Sandra Blake."[2] [3]
It has been alleged the inn is haunted by the ghost of Albert Hatt, Jr., who died by hanging himself in the warehouse in 1912.[4] It was featured in a 2002 episode of Haunted Hotels as a place where spectral lovers search for each other from beyond.
The inn was listed on the National Registry of the Historic Hotels of America in 2004.[5]
In 2012, approval to expand the hotel by 26 rooms, adding a third floor, was received.[6]
After a seven-year hiatus, expansion of the hotel finally began in 2019.[7]
