Amenities
Best Western Petaluma Inn offers a complimentary continental breakfast with hot waffles, scrambled eggs, and bacon served daily from 6 to 9:30 am. The outdoor heated swimming pool and separate hot tub are open seasonally for guest relaxation. A 24-hour business center and free high-speed internet are available for guests who need to stay connected.
Dining
The on-site Gourmet Garden restaurant serves Chinese cuisine for lunch and dinner, sharing the same lot and kitchen as the hotel. Guests can enjoy breakfast items like make-your-own waffles with fresh strawberries, bananas, and whipped cream. A vending machine is also available for snacks and drinks around the clock.
Rooms
Each guest room is equipped with a microwave, mini-fridge, and coffee maker. The hotel offers queen rooms and king rooms with two king beds, all with private bathrooms. Rooms on the ground floor are quiet despite the hotel's location at a major intersection, and pet-friendly rooms are available on the lower level near the freeway.

Pet-Friendly Accommodations
The hotel has a pet-friendly policy and sets aside designated pet rooms on the ground floor near a small dog area. Guests traveling with pets can expect a $450 smoking fee if smoking occurs in the room, as noted in hotel policy. No prior pet fee is mentioned in guest reviews, and the property does not charge an additional deposit for pets.

“This Petaluma property stands out for its comprehensive amenities; the inclusion of an on-site restaurant and generous parking add considerable value.
