The Hotel Bougainvillea is an excellent choice -- a great value if you're looking for a hotel in a quiet residential neighborhood not far from downtown. It offers most of the amenities of the more expensive resort hotels around the Central Valley, but it charges considerably less. The views across the valley from this hillside location are wonderful, and the gardens are beautifully designed and well tended. In fact, the bird-watching is pretty good in the hotel's relatively expansive gardens. Rooms are carpeted and have small triangular balconies oriented to the views. Free Wi-Fi connections are offered throughout most of the hotel. A complimentary hourly downtown shuttle bus will take you in and out of town.
