Top San Simeon Hotel Reviews

Adelaide Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I liked everything except the toilets that are better suited for toddlers than 78 year olds with bad lower backs!"

Ragged Point Inn and Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Most relaxing hotel with fantastic views. Good staff. I recommend getting a room that has the patio so you can wake up and sit outside on the rocker and catch the views. Make sure to go to the grassy area by the long staircase for outstanding photos and views. This is a place of relaxation. They even have a gas station!"

Coast Riders Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel staff was exceptional, the rooms are clean and the bed comfy. It is not a fancy hotel, so do not expect an olympic swimming pool (there is one, covered, more than decent size, so you can use it year round) or white glove waiters serving breakfast, but they will do everything to make your stay worry free. The rooms have a small full refrigerator/freezer, microware, toaster and coffee machine. The decor is simple but fun, all about cars and the 50's. The only thing I did not like are the roll down curtains, because light still filters in. Very convenient if you plan to visit Hearst castle, and very affordable too."
