    The "House Cat" at the Discovery Inn.
    Mic J.

    I'm really writing this for the owners/operators, whom I think are wonderful people. Each time I check in, they are always very friendly and accommodating (and always give me several fresh clementines for breakfast). I love the Discovery Inn. I've stayed here several times so far this year (and numerous times before that) and each stay has been excellent. I live in Los Angeles but find myself in the Bay Area on business once a month or so and I always stay at the Discovery Inn no matter where my business is. I know I can expect a friendly, clean place with more than reasonable rates. On the outside, the building looks bright and clean. The grounds are always well-kept and neat. There's a 7-11 a very short waking distance from the hotel making late-night and/or early-morning food/sundry runs a snap. Inside, the rooms are just the right size. The beds (mattresses and pillows) are very comfortable and the bedding clean and crisp. The bathrooms (toilets, showers, sinks, floors) are always clean as a whistle. The towels/wash cloths are fresh, thick, bright white and in perfect condition. The amenities are above average for a hotel in this price range, free wi-fi (that actually works), cable TV, microwave, refrigerator, and coffee pot. Perhaps my complete, 100% satisfaction with the Discovery Inn is because it totally exceeded my initial expectations. It's a basic, clean, comfortable room at a below competitive rate--and that's exactly what I'm looking for. Oh, and when you stay here, keep a look-out for the "house cat," a sweet and friendly black and white kitty who the walks grounds as a sort of goodwill ambassador, welcoming weary travelers who stop here for the night.

    Rm 120. No sign of the continental breakfast at 6:30 a.m. though. I have to say I was looking forward to a muffin and some Motel coffee.

    See all

Booking the place was pretty easy,just called them up and they were able to get us a reservation for a table of 6 on a Sunday evening. Upon arrival,I was kinda blown away by the decor,holiday themed with a gentleman playing the piano and a lively crowd sitting at the bar-I for sure felt like I picked the right place for my mothers special birthday celebration. We started out our meal with complimentary bread service,which was delicious and 2 starters,the meatballs($17.95) and the potato wedges($15.95)-they had fancy names but basically that's what they were.The meatballs were so great,I really enjoyed their texture and flavor.The wedges were very solid but what made them standout was this truffle aioli sauce they were served with-outstanding-I need this recipe somehow. We went with a few main dishes-Penne alla Vodka($31.50) which was very good,featuring Salmon and vodka sauce-the Salmon was so tasty it melted like butter on every bite.We also went with the Tortellini($29.25) dish which featured pork filled pasta in carbonara sauce with prosciutto-It was pretty good,especially when u got the bite just right with the tortellini and the tasty pieces of prosciutto-very yumz for sure!...In my opinion,the star of the night was my dish-I ordered Lasagne di Manzo($28.95)-which was a lasagna featuring ground beef and lots of cheese covered in Napolitana sauce-man oh man it was delicious,every bite was super tasty and not sure if it was the sauce that made the difference but the sauce gave the entree a very light feel,after eating that dish I felt light still,a feeling I only have ever gotten when eating pasta when I was in Rome-so it was a great dining experience without a doubt. In closing I would definitely recommend this restaurant if your looking for a place to share a slightly upscale dining experience where time is not a concern,a place that took me back to the casual nights I spent in Rome enjoying 2 hour+ dinner experiences filled with conversation and great company eating flawless foods-I will for sure come back to this amazing hidden gem of a spot! PS....Almost forgot-the crème brulee($12) and cappuccino($6) we had after dinner were exquisite-gave me all the pep I needed for the long drive home to Sacramento after this meal.....Be Kind out there.

The server was super nice and everything came out pretty quickly, which I appreciated. I ordered the cioppino, and my family went with lasagna, linguine, and pescatore. We also shared some calamari to start. Overall? Really good in my book. Flavors were on point and everyone enjoyed their dishes. It is a bit on the pricier side, but honestly no complaints still a great experience all around.

Our server was doing her best on her own for the entire establishment and we respected her situation. The Gabby's Jolt was merely strong and seemed to be missing ingredients listed on the menu. We had ordered the stuffed mushrooms appetizer which was tasty, the filet mignon entree and halibut entree ( of which we told the server we'd like to have a glass of white wine to accompany it but had to wait until the entree was nearly cold to receive it). We ate two servings of bread an do bitter while we waited for the entrees. The filet was tender and seasoned well in addition to being cooked a bit over medium, had a large portion of spinach and mashed potatoes, and came with the same red wine reduction sauce as the mushrooms which we found a bit odd. The minutely seasoned halibut has to have been the tiniest piece of fish we've ever seen served and only had six small potato quarters and like 6-7 stalks of asparagus with it. Overall, we ate everything because of the small halibut entree, but will most likely not return. I suggest the owners have more than one server on a Friday night, For everyone's sake.

They also do ghost tours around this area too. But one of my friends really likes this place to get a drink. Nice and cozy, we planned on getting a drink then just decided to grab dinner here on a Saturday evening. We started with some cocktails, I just got a tequila soda and my friends got a mojito and jazzy cosmo. They also give you some bread and butter. I asked what the most popular salad is and they said it's the pear salad, so I got that with chicken and devoured it. My friends got the chicken Marsala which also sounded popular and the penne pasta. Theres plenty of street parking downtown when it's not too busy but it's also nice walking the streets here and the servers were very friendly!

As a platinum member, I wasn't expecting to get upgraded to the 8th floor with a killer view. But we did! Then we were gonna book a parking outside thinking it'll be cheaper, which it was, but we opted for the convenience so we just paid for the parking and we were so glad we did! Our rental was an EV so it had free EV charging station so we got the bang for our buck choosing to stay in their garage. On top of that, they were so nice to let us park our car a little longer than when we checked in. Then the decor of the room is just splendid! Love the Scandinavian design. Then i am so stupid for leaving my belongings after I checked out. I immediately called the front desk and they picked up immediately. The gentleman at the front desk was still so willing to help me, even after all the extra requests that I asked! Thank you so so much Kimpton Hotel Enso for taking care of us!

    Stayed here for New Year's Eve weekend. A sweet Bavarian get away spot. Our room was small but…read moreclean and adequate for the two-night stay. It's an older building on the river so it's not high luxury or filled with modern convenience (like an elevator). But we loved the chalet feel, the big fire in the lobby fireplace, the decor. The newer addition houses the restaurant and bar which are very spacious. Continental breakfast was included and a good start to the day. It's quiet, warm, clean and affordably priced. Very much like little hotels we've been to in Europe. Recommend for a short trip, and suggest getting a room with a view of the river if available.

Not inviting so we sat at a high boy in the darkened bar, which was much nicer. I'm sure it's beautiful to sit on the balcony in the summer on warm nights. We chatted with the German owner who was doubling as a bartender, who was very nice. We loved the German influences in the bar, as we had just been to Oktoberfest in Munich. The owner's daughter Sarah runs the kitchen. My husband had a pork tenderloin schnitzel "Vienna style" ($20) and I had a jaegerschnizel with mushroom gravy ($20) and both were excellent. We split the potato pancakes (two with sour cream and apple sauce, $12) which were served crispy but tasty. They had a nice German beer and wine list. We finished with a delicious apple strudel to complete a lovely meal. I recommend this restaurant for tasty dinners in a unique venue.
