Class and History Collide
National Exchange is gem in gold county. The rooms are amazing, the restaurant is fantastic, and the bar is legendary. The entire experience is worth the stay, I found myself constantly surprised by the quality of everything. The service, the coffee, everything is great. I believe this hotel will get a 4th star rating in the years to come.

We live about 60 miles from Nevada City in Davis, CA and we just needed a day/night away to celebrate our 44th anniversary. We had a WONDERFUL time at the National Exhange Hotel. The check-in person was very kind and helpful (even got a bump-up in room). The bed was comfortable and the room was quiet. We had dinner in the restaurant (Lola) downstairs and the food and drinks were outstanding: really well prepared, creative, pacing was great, and the servers were top notch ... we'll be back, for sure!

This hotel has so much history. It gives you the feeling of being in the Old West.
The town is very interesting and the people were all very kind.
Check out the Deer Creek trail and suspension bridge when you are there.
