We are a modern Victorian Bed and Brunch nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. We are walking distance from the charming storefronts and eclectic dining in Downtown Sonora. Located approximately 40 miles from the entrance of Yosemite, the Royal Olive Manor is the perfect place to call "home base" if adventuring through the mountains. The space Olive Hale Knudsen was 11 years old when she first moved into the home when her father, George Hale, first built it in 1880, and remained in the home with her husband and children until 1918. The Olive Room is styled with pastel blue walls and gold accents to represent her bright spirit and cheerful personality. It has been said that Olive and her husband often threw extravagant parties, and were gracious hosts to all who entered the home. The Olive Room has one Queen bed, and a Queen sized pull-out couch in the private living area. There is a private bathroom and fully functional kitchen complete with an oven, microwave, coffee maker, and refrigerator. Breakfast will be served at 9am on the back lawn. Please inform me of any food allergies ahead of time so that we can properly accommodate your needs. Check in is anytime after 4pm, and check out is at 12pm. Guest access Our common areas can be opened to you upon request. When enjoying the common areas, please be mindful of the nature of our antiques and refrain from “playing” with them or moving them. Security cameras are present in the common areas for the safety of our guests and our home. During your stay We will be around to help with anything you may need during your stay. We are family owned and operated, and want to make sure you feel like family when you walk through our doors. If you would like to be social, we would like to be too. If you prefer more quiet space, we will make sure you have everything you need to make your stay as relaxing as possible.
