Top Ocean Street Hotel Reviews

Riverside Inn & Suites Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"The property is close enough to the Boardwalk to walk. The staff were pleasant and helpful. The room was clean but dated, but if you need a kitchen, you have one although no utensils of any kind. So if you plan to cook, you'll need to bring your own pots, pans, utensils, etc. I took a griddle and food that could be microwaved as we had three children with us. Most other hotels I looked at, we would have needed to reserve two rooms to accomodate all of us. We had two bedrooms but only one TV, would have been better to have one in each room."

Comfort Inn Santa Cruz North

8/10 Good

"Didn’t like the gap in the bottom of the entry door. Otherwise everything good."

Hotel Solares

8/10 Good

"Ok"

Ocean Pacific Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome place! Enjoyed the stay great location."

Best Western Plus All Suites Inn

8/10 Good

"Good bargain in the heart of Santa Cruz. Large, clean rooms. Yes, parking is $16.50 per day, but it’s convenient and far better than driving around hoping for a place for two-hour parking. Recommend without hesitation. Oh, breakfast included and OK in a pinch."

Seaside Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and comfortable. Safe for a single female."

La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Great place !"

Casablanca On The Beach

8/10 Good

"It was not a bad place to stay. Just do not stay in room 204 if someone is above you. First night was the absolute worst I have ever experienced listening to people until 4am. Calling office and complaining. Second night was great! Owen was very helpful and reassured us that nobody was in that room our second night. I would stay again just mindful of the room location. Maybe a top floor"

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Santa Cruz by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Super clean! We often stay at hotels along the coast, near the water. They can often smell like mold/mildew. This place was clean and no unpleasant odors. The staff was friendly and the cost of parking was reasonable!"
