Where do I begin? 1. The food was of low quality and was significantly overpriced. 2. The rooms are filthy. I felt it was necessary to wear flip-flops at all times, including in the shower. 3. The rooms are outdated. The linens, carpet, furniture, bathroom tile, wallpaper, etc., is extremely out dated and dirty (not "historic", just tacky). 4. The... More

After reading all of the reviews that were nice I expected to arrive to a nice place. No such luck. Received terrible customer service with the front desk personel claiming I did not make a reservation at first then they discovered it after accusing me of not having one, filthy old dirty carpet in the place and just a really...

Two rooms in the "new" section we rented were well appointed and comfortable except there were no refrigerators, microwaves, or coffee pots in our rooms.

Murphys Historic Hotel is great place to stay for a visit to the Gold Country towns of Angels Camp and Murphys. Rooms in the main building, while charming and historic, may be noisy due to the popularity of the bar and dining room downstairs. We recommend getting a room in the newer annex - clean, comfortable, basic, and the perfect... More

After a day of exploring the foothills (and the wineries therein), we decided that it was smarter to stay the night and enjoy the locals... "we'll drive home Sunday". We checked several of the competing hotels. Some were cheaper, and looked ok, but were 'pet friendly'. My wife has asthma, some pets are a really bad thing. So, we settled... More

So I'm guessing there are nicer, quieter places to stay in town but the Murphys Hotel is very convenient and quaint as heck. HOWEVER, the rooms are not very comfortable-Small bathroom, loud parking lot and the bed was not great. Some drunk fool actually pounded on our door at 2:15 thinking he had his room. GREAT. We had one of... More

Make this your last option in Murphys. First of all the website photos are a lie. The big historical part and pics of rooms are only a small portion of this hotel. When we checked in we got a room that was no better than a motel 6, actually that would have probably been better, in a "modern" part that... More

Aug. 17, 2011 - Burger and fries were pretty good, the crab cakes were not. While my girlfriend and I were having a drink at the bar we were advised by Jason, the bartender, a very gracious and professional fellow that food service on The Patio was about to end if we wished to have our lunch outside. We promptly... More
