The Inn On Knowles Hill Bed & Breakfast Hotel - A historic hilltop B&B with gourmet dining and panoramic Sonora views
Perched atop a rock-encrusted summit, The Inn On Knowles Hill Bed & Breakfast Hotel offers panoramic views of historic downtown Sonora from its 5-star setting. Each morning starts with a two-course gourmet breakfast featuring local ingredients, served at 9:00 AM in two period-restored dining rooms. The property showcases antique Eastlake Victorian furnishings, original hardware, and mahogany woodwork throughout its rooms. Guest accommodations feature Cal-King or Eastern King beds, private bathrooms with mosaic marble floors, walk-in closets, and flat-screen TVs.
