A Hidden Gem in Solvang – Seamless, Stylish, and E

The Winston is an absolute gem! The contactless experience was smooth and well-organized, making for a stress-free stay. I accidentally booked the wrong date, but Sabrina was incredibly helpful over the phone—she quickly resolved the issue and made sure I had a room when I arrived. Her assistance turned what could have been a stressful situation into a seamless and enjoyable experience. The hotel itself is stunning. The decor is stylish and thoughtfully curated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The room was spacious and beautifully designed, but the highlight was the bathroom—large, elegant, and featuring a luxurious shower that felt like a spa retreat. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the addition of a sound machine was a wonderful touch that made for a perfect night’s sleep. If you're looking for a unique, comfortable, and hassle-free stay in Solvang, The Winston is the perfect choice. I can't wait to return!
