Default My kind of hotel...

Was in Napa this past weekend and thought we were staying at a nice boutique hotel until we walked over to this place for breakfast. Check out this lineup of "hotel shuttles" - they were all brand new. The 460 was the L version and was completely loaded from head to toe. They thought I was staying there on our way out as I was asking for directions to a general store and offered to drive me... I should have taken them up on it but needed the fresh air after a long night..!

Nice. Should post up the name so if we are in the area, other owners can support them.

Very impressive. Do they have an LFA in the stable?

Absolutely- it was Hotel Bardessono in Yountville. Beautiful property.

Looks like they have some kind of partnership with Lexus. Apparently Lexus owners can get a dining credit there.

Beautiful place, $550 per night is fairly pricey, but not extreme compared to some other places in California.

Wow, I googled the name of the hotel and "Lexus" and was taken to the Lexus Drivers site showing the $100 dining credit there. i had no idea Lexus offered perks to members via the Lexus Drivers Site. Good to know!

I get a magazine every 3 months or so from Lexus here in Canada. Naturally, a lot of the content is advertising, but they also give a current list of perks from local restaurants, resorts (such as Whistler), etc. I'm surprised you guys don't get the same.

The perks, at least for the US, are available online:

That LX is something else! I'm waiting for an older LX to get more affordable, then I can trade in my SUV; the new LX would be a dream!

Great cars, but history will not be kind to those front end grills. Comical really.

Yes indeed. Any review you read (C&D, R&T etc), or comments in forums, always point at the grill as "divisive". You'd think Lexus would understand that and make a change.
