So this was a cool spot in the downtown reno area. Near the Depot / Lead Dog and others . The Bar area was really cool well lit and quite the selection. Nice seating areas in the corner street and it was awesome to watch it snow thru the big windows at least this last Saturday night. The drinks we all had were good , imo the pour on the whiskey was a little light but thats my opinion. My buddy said the Revision Disco Ninja was good and a little spicy. My Blanton Whiskey is good i had it neat. My wife enjoyed Nikka days touch sweet but we both liked . We really like Japanese Whiskey. The Cocunt tequila specialty drink was good according to my friend but i didn't try . I would give 5 stars but i didnt stay at Hotel portion or try any food. Next time i will ! Enjoy ! read more

Found this place while looking up for a place to stay Near the reno event Center. It had great reviews plus it's a bonus with a restaurant, bar and in the morning time coffee bar. Check in is usually 3pm. We got here a little early but had a conversation with their coffee bar associate. Omg plant heaven, I lovvvvvve all the plants here it makes it so jungle like. The rooms are above the restaurant and can get noise in the evening. I like they we can order from the restaurant for room service. Everyone there was super nice and very attentive. If you want to dinner at the restaurant I suggest you early cause they do get super packed and wait line for a table, especially on weekends and concert nights. read more

This review is for the bar. Not the hotel. The bar is part of the one-two punch for the best brunch in town. Excellent food, excellent service and excellent cocktails with premium ingredients. We have been to Estella numerous times for dinner and brunch and every single time the drinks are totally on point. The space is also great. Lot's of light and tons of bar space, even a low seating bar section for those who don't like sitting on bar stools. Every drink I have gotten here has been exceptional in creativity and in quality. The people behind the bar are the types of bartenders you would expect in a larger city with a more sophisticated professional air. Reno is an elevated dive bar city. This isn't that. It's a quality bar program that brings it's elegance in to supplant the normally seedy/juvenile reno bar scene. read more

Have been wanting to check out this place for some time now, when I drive by it always looks busy! Stopped by for a drink- we got the 50/50 and the mezcal margaritas! Both were great and had fish tacos. Loved the atmosphere, really fun vibe. Can't wait to check out the patio area in the summer! Go check it out! read more

This coffee spot is a little hidden gem! You've got to go into the hotel bar through the back door to access it. The coffee is great, the server was really nice and had a good conversation. The inside is nice and clean with some cool decorations. I had the Easy Rider which is really good! The house made syrups really ad a good touch and the lemon zest makes it all the better! Highly recommend! read more

We came for $5 pie and coffee! It was nice and quiet, the employee was friendly and he even made my daughter a hot chocolate. $5 pie and coffee is such a great deal and the pie was great. Made by a local company called Sugar Pie. We had a berry/apple and a apple crumble pie. I love their ambiance here. Beautiful plants and lots of windows. Not the best part of town unfortunately but still a nice slow morning and we'll be back. read more

When I moved to Reno I was supposed to stay with family in south lake. But unfortunately, there was a teeny tiny fire that forced us to evacuate and I needed a place to stay in Reno that would make me feel safe and comfortable before my first day at a new job. Enter The Jesse. A place that fit the need perfectly. Could it have been that my great grandmother was a Jesse, possible. Perchance the mix of mid century modern furniture and delightful fiddle leaf figs, probable. Was it the perfect "naked and famous" cocktail the soothed my weary soul, yes. The Jesse has it all which is why I keep coming back even though I'm no longer a hotel guest. The drinks are delicious and creative. I particularly enjoyed the pistachio cocktail I had last night. The bartenders are great!!!!!!!! The bar allows well behaved pups. Luckily for the world my dog is the goodest dog. The room was comfortable and stylish. What a fantastic shower too! A little noisy in the room I was in but I'm a city girl and I like to know there is a world outside my window. Plus, tacos. But I'll dig into those in my review of Estella. read more

Great bar for upscale cocktails! I came here for Margarita Monday when all their specialty margaritas are $9. I got the Passionfruit Margarita and it was delicious! Bartenders are very helpful in recommending great cocktails. They also share a space with a taco joint so you can order food and they'll deliver to the bar for you. read more

The Jesse - Passionfruit Margarita - Hotels Near Me - Reno, Nevada

This is a delicious spot for Tacos, Tostadas and Quesadillas. It's at a bar so it's not kid friendly but they have delicious cocktails! The tacos are pretty pricey- I got the oyster mushroom and seasonal veggie which come on a tortilla the Size of your palm for $6 each. People in my group got Al pastor, shrimp with crickets (their surf and turf) and shrimp. They sell out of tacos so my husband didn't get what he wanted but enjoyed other options. The cocktails were amazing. It's a really cute bar on 4th street with a super classy feel on the inside. To order you go up to the bar and they hold onto your card. They have a server come to your table to deliver you food and check on you- Veronica was wonderful! Super attentive and explained all of the tacos and encouraged us to try new ones. The bar tender was also attentive! Def recommend this spot but it isn't the Taco Tuesday spot we were looking for as it doesn't have any specials for Taco Tuesday. We would def go back! read more

The Jesse is not a hotel I would recommend. It is dirty and has a scary parking lot. The hotel staff is not particularly accommodating. I would certainly recommend elsewhere, very disappointing to have this experience while on vacation. read more

The inside felt very San Francisco hotel vibe. Restrooms were clean and stocked. Suggestion: toilet covers :) Plenty of outdoor sitting. New tables and chairs, or at least new looking :) Bar had an all glass window looking at 4th street. Servers were helpful and awesomazing. Has a small parking area but plenty of street parking. Tostadas were amazing :) crunchy, flavorful and yummilicious! Salsas were too! Kid had the corn one, she's not a big fan of spicy stuff (still training her). Definitely a great hang out place. Would recommend. read more

they changed their menu and food selection... and it's not my favorite. I would always look forward to coming here, they had great bartenders making even better drinks. I learned that it's under new ownership?? which explains the change. Normally i would rate it a 5 but the last 2 experiences under the "new" Jesse have been subpar. the drinks are more expensive and it's mediterranean food instead of tacos. read more

Great new Mediterranean offerings at The Jesse's restaurant under new ownership. The food was surprisingly cheap given the nice vibe of the place (burger was 15, wrap was 14). We left full and ready to come back to try more menu items. The staff were super friendly, attentive, and down to Earth. The total highlight of this place is the outdoor seating area. So much foliage, ivy, and sun to enjoy on a nice day. We're already at The Jesse all the time for Forged coffee, and now we'll be coming for food too :) read more

It was so darn good. Licationbis not the best part of town but inside is an oasis. We will definitely be back. read more

My husband and I are both fully vaccinated and were looking forward to coming here for a date night with food and drinks in the patio. When we arrived at the patio entrance a couple days ago, a sign indicated that all orders must be placed inside at the bar. When we walked inside fully masked, we were surprised to find the bar packed with people! There was a little space in the middle of the bar with menus to place orders and we waited a few feet behind the people ahead of us placing theirs. When we finally got to the bar, it took many minutes before we were even acknowledged -- with three people working behind the bar. It was so busy! One very important, better-than-the-rest-of-us, man slipped to the side of the bar and placed his order while we were patiently waiting along with the people in line behind us. We finally placed our order of chips and salsa, three tacos, a cinnamon margarita, and an IPA. We received the basket of chips and drinks while at the bar. I took the chips and went outside to the comfy couch area and waited for my husband. Many minutes later, he finally came out with our drinks and a number for our taco order. He said it took that long just to pay our bill. After that, we finally had an enjoyable date and didn't wait too much longer for our tacos. I hate to say this, but I woke in the middle of the night feeling very sick and spent all day yesterday ill. I am thinking it was either my cinnamon margarita or taco because my husband has been fine. I am sad about our whole experience - from Covid protocol not being followed, to the way they handled orders, to end up feeling sick - because we previously have enjoyed our experiences at The Jesse. read more

The Jesse : hotel and Bar The Jesse is one of my favorite bars in Reno. I love to come in and grab a few cocktails now and again. Finally my fiancé and I decided to schedule a staycation. This was an amazing decision! The room was breath taking! The small touches are what really made it. There were bathrobes, makeup wipes, and little bottles of champagne. It was wondering being able to head down to the bar, hangout, bar hop, and then stroll back for a good nights sleep. The bed is so comfy! The bar serves coffee starting at 8am on the weekends. I would recommend getting the cold brew or an kat milk latte. The Jesse is dog friendly, so we were able to bring our pups into the bar while we had some cocktails. Certain rooms are dog friendly. Make sure to check with Piper, when you book. Parking is limited. I would recommend getting there around 3-4pm to secure a spot. Estella : We ordered delicious tacos at the bar, during our staycation. Estella is my favorite Reno taco joint! I recommend the fish! These pair perfectly with a margarita! What are you waiting for!? Get to the Jesse and have an amazing staycation! read more

I was visiting Louie's with my girlfriend, having a Picon punch... She noticed The Jesse across the street and said "hey what's that?" As someone who had been coming to Reno for years, I had no idea. We looked it up, and decided we had to stay in Reno extra night just to explore... Estelle, the bar and restaurant at the Jesse, is an absolute gem. This place takes tacos seriously, it's tequila seriously, and it's Mixology and cocktails very seriously. The decor inside is very modern and very hip with a multitude of seating areas, including an outside patio, a front lounge area with couches, the bar, and some high tops. The clientele was very young and very hip, and it was very vibrant and full on a Thursday night. it has a parking lot next to the hotel, which is very convenient. The bartenders were very skilled, and took a lot of pride in their work. I highly recommend this establishment for food and or drinks. It will not disappoint... Do yourself a favor and visit , this establishment as soon as possible. read more

The Jesse is such a vibe--super cute spot with a great atmosphere and creative, custom cocktails. I love that it's also a boutique hotel, which adds to the charm. I've heard rumors it's haunted too, which honestly makes it even cooler. Perfect place for a casual night out or to impress an out-of-towner. read more

I have to give these guys 1000 star review for customer service. I had dropped my wallet outside, upon review of the security footage we saw the guy who took it. Using find-my and my air tags, the owner and manager hopped in my car; drove with me 7 miles to find the guy, and we got my wallet back. Aside from this awesome act of service. This is a very nice and affordable hotel with a nice vibe and bar below. Interior design is excellent. Highly highly recommended. read more

The Jesse, as hard as it is to find parking around, is delicious! The order and pay dining is very interesting as well as the seating but my food was delicious! The shrimp tostadas and chips and salsa were delicious and packed with flavor. I am left craving it every time I leave. Seating is all outside, food is made fresh, they have a different build for beverages and the as aesthetic is nice! I would love to go back with friends, since it seems like a great place to gather! read more

St Patrick's day seemed like a great day to book a hotel on 4th street. We could enjoy Tour de Brews and walk to our room. We were right! The brewery district had many fun events and right on the west end is The Jesse Hotel and Bar and Estella restaurant. Our room was extremely well designed. The old brick is the perfect frame for the picture they paint with light wood floors and bed. The bathroom has white tile with a walk-in shower. All body and hair products are in wall mounted dispensers. No small bottles in the trash here. On site parking lot, Estrella tacos and a full service bar make this an easy decision for a return visit. There was not anything we would change about our visit. Take a weekend and spend it at The Jesse. Enjoy the area and downtown. read more

For a great coffee and cool atmosphere come to The Jesse. Just a couple blocks off downtown Virginia Street (near the Row) and around the corner from Bowling Stadium, this place is worth the stroll. It's a coffee house by day and bar by night. Nick, my favorite barista extraordinaire makes amazing cappuccino's and occasionally at my request will surprise me with one of his delicious coffee creations. If you're a local like me or coming to hangout in Reno, this place is worth the visit. Don't settle for an expensive coffee chain place, come experience the excellent service and chill vibe of The Jesse. read more

We recently stopped in here for a quick drink and upon walking in I felt like I was not cool enough for this place lol but the bartenders were so nice and welcoming that it put my mind at ease quickly. They gave us so good recommendations. We tried El Valiente made with chocolate and orange bitters. It was strong which made me feel like I was getting my money's worth! I loved the subtle chocolate flavor. We also rolled the dice and let the bartender decide on a drink and he made us a type of old fashioned. I forget the details but it was good! We mentioned that we were celebrating our 15th an over and they were so nice to offer us a complimentary pour. We didn't accept because we had to make another reservation, but we loved the hospitality! Cant wait to go back and try out the food. read more

A year ago my husband and I stayed at The Jesse on our wedding weekend in the Parke room and had a fantastic time. The rooms are so clean and clearly put together with the utmost attention to detail. Last night we returned to celebrate our one year anniversary with drinks and had an absolutely amazing time. Mason was working at the bar and you can tell he really loves his job, conversation with him & the drinks he served were definitely the highlight of our evening! We both ordered the "just make me something" menu option and really enjoyed the cocktails Mason selected for us. read more

My wife and I stopped here a little before 3pm on a Sunday. We were actually planning to try Estella Tacos Y Mezcal but could not figure out how to get to it. So, we went into The Jesse to check it out. The Jesse gets it's name from Jesse Lee Reno, the Union Civil War General for whom Reno is named. Jesse L Reno was killed in the battle of South Mountain. Part of our problem is that we parked on Evans Avenue between 4th and 5th. We found out that if you enter through The Jesse, there is access from the back of The Jesse or if you drive down 4th, there is a parking lot with access to both. They share an outdoor open space which is fenced and has seating. There were quite a few people hanging out inside in the main room with the bar area. The bar is right in front of you when you walk in. There are multiple places to sit and relax. We really loved the exposed brick and industrial look. There is another room to the left of the entrance just past the restrooms with additional seating. This is also the way you get to the outdoor seating area, parking lot and Estella Tacos Y Mezcal. There are Mexican blankets in a basket by the door which we assume to be used for people sitting outside. We had a seat at the bar at two open seats and checked out what they had. My wife ordered the Eighty-Nine Eleven cocktail and I ordered a Revision IPA. The bartender was really friendly and took good care of us newcomers. My wife was amazed with the flavor of her drink and would never have ordered anything with gin but she really loved it! We both used the restrooms which were very clean and we were surprised to see that they use actual towels for drying your hands. We let them know they were running low in one of the restrooms and out of them in the other. Overall it was a great experience and is a beautiful and comfortable place to enjoy some drinks with your significant other or a group of friends or family. We also think it would be a fun place to do a staycation or for out of town folks to enjoy while in the area. They have six hotel rooms on the floors above. read more

horrible service, hair in my food and guy in parking lot was about to tow my car and was very rude until he saw i was a customer

Since the change in ownership and the complete change in menu the food has really gone downhill. Ordered stuffed grape leaves and the leaves themselves were very undercooked. Ordered the lamb kebabs for dinner and upon cutting into them I realized the ground lamb was still completely raw in the middle. Hummus appetizer was passable I suppose. Service was friendly and the ambiance was fine but sheesh the food is really underwhelming and just not very good. read more

The drinks here are amazing. The staff were excellent and it was a nice place for a sort of intimate happy hour.

This review is only for the beautiful lobby bar. Bar goers are urged to ignore that: 1. The Jesse is not located in the best area in town 2. The hustle and bustle coming from Evans Ave. 3. The random homeless walking into the lobby bar Yes, ignore every inconvenience and get yourself over to The Jesse! What used to be an old building has been transformed into a beautiful boutique hotel. The lobby is welcoming and stylish and the outdoor area is small, enjoyable... but a little noisy. The street noise and ambiance music make it a little loud and uncomfortable to carry a conversation. On the plus side, it's very lush, romantic and the heaters keep it cozy. The staff is fun, friendly, and aim to please and make the experience unforgettable. Lo, the bar manager and mixologist extraordinaire, has created delicious cocktails inspired by Nevada history. The Jesse put together a Spooky Story and Autumn Cocktails events that I was lucky to attend. Besides enjoying some scary-good urban myths told by the very entertaining Lo, I had the pleasure to sample the fall cocktail menu: Evil Personified - Mezcal, ancho reyes chile liquor, pumpkin and lime. The Forbidden Love - Tequila, cassis, hibiscus tea syrup, ginger beer. Gold Digger - Bourbon, coffee liquor, dark chocolate liquor, and bitters. Never Leaving Reno - Pisco, turmeric syrup, lime, pineapple juice. 344 Feet Below - Absolut elyx and prosecco. Queen of the Comstock - Rum, jagermeister, ginger liquor, giffard banana and lime. Some of my favorite cocktails on the regular menu are the Camel Race Hoax and 90 Days to Freedom. Looking forward to more great times, great stories and great cocktails at The Jesse. read more

We did not stay at the Jesse, merely came by for a dish + dram for the Yelp Whiskey Hunt. Therefore, I am not giving you a review on the boutique hotel, just a review for the lobby/bar/living area. The space is hip, stylish, and a tad retro all while being located in a beautiful brick building with lots of greens to soften the look. The staff is just as hip and stylish, especially the ever congenial Lo, bar manager and mixologist extraordinaire. Come for a drink, stay for a spell and enjoy the company and the comfy seating. Stay a while longer and head back to Estella for some fine looking tacos which can be enjoyed at the taco bar or on the beautiful courtyard. I'll definitely be back to try those tacos! read more

Room was clean and spacious, very noisy however. They provided a white noise machine and earplugs for traffic noise, it's on a corner across from a motor cycle bar and there must be a "please rev your engine" sign at the stoplight. But that wasn't even the worst of it, they allowed an unattended dog to remain in a room across the hall barking constantly from 5pm until 11:30pm despite having been informed of the situation. Very sad for the dog. Also, no elevator in the building so hauling suitcases up two flights was a pain. read more

Great food , great cocktails, clean inviting atmosphere, attentive friendly staff (and owners!), outdoor dining, what else do you need?! Both the hotel and the attached restaurant Estella rock. Will update with our favorite cocktail picks shortly. Margarita happy hour is a little early for us to catch it, but you may have better luck ! read more

Tuesday April 25th The Jesse: We all had Cadillac Margaritas and they were really good! Service was great! This was my review for Estella's: Tho place is great!! I forgot to take pictures of the food which is a bummer. We had Fish, Carnitas and Mushroom tacos all were really good! We also had a Quesadilla and Shrimp Tostada! Service was great even if it's a counter service style they hustle! We ate inside the Jesse which is a cool old building in Reno... good and bad is the show that happens outside the windows. Definitely entertaining. The only reason I didn't give it 5 star is because of the Salsa with the Chips was just ok and the Quesadilla was more like Enchiladas. We'll definitely be back for the Tacos and Margaritas!!! read more
