The Jesse, a boutique hotel and bar on East 4th, Reno

A six-room boutique hotel with a ground-floor cocktail and agave bar in Reno's East 4th brewery district. Owner-operated, non-casino, walkable to the brewery row.

By Heather

The Jesse is a six-room boutique hotel at 306 East 4th Street, in the brewery district north of downtown Reno. The hotel sits above a cocktail and agave bar that's open to non-guests, which makes it one of the few Reno lodgings where you can walk downstairs to a proper bar program.

Where it is

306 East 4th Street, between Evans Avenue and Lake Street. The location puts it walking distance to Reno's brewery row. Lead Dog Brewing, Pigeon Head Brewery and Black Rabbit Mead are all within a few blocks. Cargo Concert Hall sits closer still, on North Virginia.

Who it's for

Six rooms means The Jesse isn't built for high-volume tourism. It reads more like a lodging option for travelers who want to be near Reno's independent food and drink scene rather than the casinos. Couples on a weekend, festival travelers, the occasional business traveler who wants to skip the chain hotels.

The bar

The bar side leans agave — tequila and mezcal — alongside a rotating cocktail list. It functions as a neighborhood bar even if you're not staying upstairs, with regular hours independent of hotel check-in.
