Appellation Lodi – Wine & Roses Resort and Spa
Appellation Lodi – Wine & Roses Resort and Spa is a historic 66-key boutique hotel reimagined by culinary-first brand Appellation, co-founded by Michelin-starred Chef Charlie Palmer, in close collaboration with longtime owners Russ and Kathryn Munson, whose decades-long stewardship has both inspired Lodi’s evolution as a wine destination—quietly boasting more vineyard acreage than Napa/Sonoma combined—and shaped the property into a beloved Lodi landmark.
Design blends the hotel’s legacy with a modern sensibility, with airy refreshed guest rooms reflecting the region’s agricultural heritage through handcrafted furnishings and vineyard-inspired tones. Expansive grounds feature manicured pathways, outdoor patios with fireplaces, and culinary gardens. Guests can savor Progressive American cuisine at Americana House or enjoy artisanal breads and pastries at the French-inspired Maison Lodi, in collaboration with Healdsburg’s Quail & Condor Bakery; partake in immersive “Crafted at Appellation” workshops with local artisans; and enjoy the Wine & Roses Spa’s holistic wellness treatments and experiences.
