This is a charming place to stay in Julian, with a peaceful little complex of cottages and a main lodge house. The staff was super friendly and helpful and the included continental breakfast was plenty for me (my hubby preferred the ordered breakfast because, bacon). Only downsides are that the rooms need some TLC and updates - one of the window blinds in our room had a "please do not use" note on it, and the heater was so noisy we finally turned it off at 2 am. My understanding is that improvements are coming,so we'll give them another chance in a while?

This place is so beautiful. Made reservations for birthday 1 night. Set up on a hill with numerous cottages to choose from. The room we stayed in had a jetted whirlpool tub which was a lot of fun as a couple. Ended up rebooking for a second night. Highly recommend

This was our first time to Julian and had a wonderful time. Orchard Hill is a wonderful place to stay. The grounds are beautiful and the staff incredible. We stayed in the Macintosh room and I loved that it had a fireplace. We can’t wait to go back.

On the edge of town, and set in a hill, so there's no passing traffic. I can't remember the last time I spent a night without hearing a car.

Delightful luxurious country BnB off Main Street
We opted for a room in one of the cottages in the grounds. I was hoping for a view and a sunny terrace but the trees had grown too tall for this! It was quiet and felt very private but I don’t think the other 2 rooms in the cottage were occupied. The room was beautifully appointed and very comfortable . The included breakfast served in the attractive and comfortable lodge building was a different dish every day, beautifully cooked to order. No choice, but buffet items were available too. The staff were all very helpful and friendly

A beautiful little getaway place! Everything was clean, and comfy. We loved the fireplace in our bedroom and the soft bathrobes. The hotel offers a little happy hour for the guests with complimentary cheese and a glass of wine per guest. We look forward to coming back in the future :)

We cannot wait to return!! This was our first visit and it was wonderful! The staff were all so accommodating and welcoming. The included happy hour and breakfast were delicious. We also ate at the in-house restaurant - The Fancy Farmer - for dinner....super yummy! The only small issue - emphasis on small - was with the TV in the room. We stayed in a lodge room, so next time, we are going to try a larger cabin room with a fireplace! The grounds were a pleasant suprise as well - with a babbling brook and pond. Very serene and quaint. Another bonus was the entertainment room on our floor - with all the board games and old school arcade games available! I have recommended this boutique hotel to all of my friends, family, and coworkers!!

Stayed here after the motel down the street told us they had over booked rooms. I’m go glad there were rooms available here and this place was way superior than the one I had previously book. Our room as spacious. I wish I had spent more time exploring and spending time on their grounds as their outdoor areas were very nice too. The breakfast was also a plus. Will definitely stay here again.

The property was really nice and the service was excellent. It was super close to the little town. The parking was a little tricky and the rocky uphill was a bit hard in heels. Good breakfast.
