The Gaia Hotel & Spa is a LEED certified hotel on the outskirts of Redding.
It is constructed largely from recycled materials, with buildings in a campus-like setting. Visitors can learn about its environmentally friendly properties at a computer kiosk located in the reception area.
Dog-friendly, ground-level rooms open directly onto lawns and open space. A path beyond the wedding lawn (please go around with dogs) leads to the Sacramento River. Staff are knowledgeable about dog-friendly hiking trails and attractions in the area. Cottages as well as motel-style rooms are available, and a conference center is also located on the property.
