Top Olympia Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is so close to the boardwalk , parking is a reasonable price"

Seacliff Inn Aptos, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Convenient and clean hotel close the beach and easy freeway access to everything else Santa Cruz has to offer. The staff was very friendly and patio at the restaurant was very peaceful. We have stayed there several times and find the freeway side buildings to be extremely noisy. The light coming through the door at night was a bit annoying and the daily charge for parking was a surprise and seems unnecessary. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Towels were not replenished the second day. We were given complimentary bottles of water when checking in, and that same water was $3 ($5 for Fiji water) in the room. . Why charge for water? Seems petty. Not our favorite place in the Santa Cruz area but we will probably stay there again due to the location."

Ocean Pacific Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome. Coming back in a week."

Marea Sol Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room was clean. Staff was helpful and polite. Balcony and balcony furniture needs a good cleaning."

Seascape Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful resort! Pool was very nice. Plenty of lounges. Staff extremely friendly and knowledgeable and helpful. No problem with parking. Hot tub was not in use. Only toiletries missing could be body wash. Should have a non slip mat in the bath tub. Maybe another fan in the room. Food was excellent."

Quality Inn & Suites Capitola By the Sea

8/10 Good

"Quiet and spotless with a great seasonal pool. I was surprised to find only shampoo and conditioner dispensers in the shower/tub combo. Another bottle, apparently a bath gel, was mounted near the sink out of reach. I would also have appreciated having a rubber shower mat or something else to prevent slipping in the tub."

Casablanca On The Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and parking was comfortable. It was nice having lunch on the front patio."

Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"My biggest question would be why on earth are the towels grey…? They don’t look clean even if they are, but also they don’t look like the color is intentionally chosen… they’re pale grey and look as though they just don’t get washed properly."

La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t possibly give this resort enough stars. Exceeds expectations with the complimentary bottle of wine and snacks in the room, motion activated lighting under bathroom counters to guide the way to the toilet at night, the low step in the shower to put your leg on to shave. The pool was fantastic, as was the Aperol Spritz. The location could not have been better. Valet parking so easy. Helpful, effective staff. Everywhere I looked there was some decorative accent impressive enough to photograph. I could hear the ocean from my pool view room. I’m leaving against my will, can’t wait to go back. When I get home I guarantee no one will greet me with a smile and glass of champagne!"
