Our stay at the Grateful Bed in Feb. 2013, was delightful. For starters, the arrangements were smooth, communications easy, and the price was right. We slept soundly in lovely linens, on a VERY comfortable mattress. Breakfast was elegant. The 3-fruit, just-out-of-the-oven crisp; Dutch Baby covered with fresh berries of several kinds, tasty sausage, juice and coffee were delicious. Attention to... More

Traveling through Chico during Thanksgiving week, we chose to stay at The Grateful Bed. We are so, so glad we did. It is a beautiful house, decorated for the holiday, with clean and comfortable rooms. Our bed in the Bed of Roses was great. My only difficulty was with the stairs (due to a bad knee), but there is a... More

The restored two story home is a step back in time and beautifully maintained. We only stayed one night but wish we could have stayed longer. There are many touches in the room; like seasonal...

We recently spent two nights at the Grateful Bed in Chico, California. The owners, Rick and Carol are warm & welcoming & their B&B is charming.

What can I say? For part of our California vacation, we planned to stay one night in Chico just to visit the Sierra Nevada Brewery. There were a few good choices but being a Deadhead with many shows in my past, I couldn't pass on this place. Rick and Carol provided one of the very nicest stays for our entire... More

There is one word to describe "The Grateful Bed"--FABULOUS! Carol and Rick are gracious hosts who strive to make your stay unforgettable. They have a gift for decorating that generates curiosity and creates a feeling of warmth throughout. The B&B name and the Hobbit House are examples of their whimsical nature. We looked forward to each morning's "feast"..wholesome, delicious breakfasts... More
