In September 2014, Craig and Kathryn Hall announced the rebrand plans of La Residence to SENZA Hotel to reflect the hotel’s new modern design and added luxury lifestyle amenities.
“SENZA Hotel is a unique property providing contemporary luxurious accommodations,” say owners Craig and Kathryn Hall. “Our hope is to share the essence of beautiful Napa Valley with our guests, bringing together wine, food, art and most importantly a spectacular vineyard setting.”
Construction included updates to the eight room historic Parker Mansion built in 1870. Fifteen existing guest rooms have been completely renovated and 18 new suites with private patios have been built for a total of 41 modern luxury rooms.
New lifestyle amenities include a contemporary lobby featuring a fully equipped kitchen, updated dining room, a heated outdoor pool with cabanas, a remodeled hot tub and a new outdoor fireplace. The Riposa Center offers a full spa with a variety of spa services including specialty massages uniquely designed for guests of SENZA Hotel.
Additionally, the property features a fitness room with state-of-the-art equipment and a large conference room ideal for receptions, parties and business conferences.
The two-acre property has five main buildings including the SENZA House, Hall Building, Walt Building, Cellar House and Parker Mansion, all surrounded by breathtaking vineyard views. Guests will be offered complimentary continental breakfast daily by Bouchon. Guests will also enjoy each evening complimentary wine from local wineries paired with artisanal cheese boards.
The property boasts an impressive art collected curated by White House curator Virginia Shore, Shore Art Advisory, and is surrounded by the pulse of Napa in the heart of the Valley. Guests are treated to complimentary breakfast daily by Yountville hot spot Bouchon as well as evening wine hour from 5 to 6pm featuring visiting local wineries.
Owner Kathryn Hall is most known as a public figure as she was appointed our United States Ambassador to Austria during the Clinton Administration. Her and her entrepreneur husband Craig Hall also own HALL Wineries in both St. Helena and Rutherford and WALT Wines in Sonoma
Leslie Wilks Design of St. Helena, California created the interiors to preserve the hotel’s heritage and contrast it with an urban, contemporary spirit in shades of gray with surfaces of marble. Contemporary art curated by Virginia Shore of Washington D.C. and Patricia Meadows of Dallas, Texas are integrated throughout the property.
