Room was great, clean, comfortable bed and had everything we needed. Staff were very friendly, I think the lady on reception was called Rexi, she was lovely and welcoming. It was nice having hot filter coffee at reception.

The rooms are big and clean. Good shower. The staff were really helpful - upgraded our rooms and also went to buy soy milk just for us in the morning.

The Quality Inn hotel is located just two miles from Hearst Castle, a Moorish castle with 127 acres of gardens, terraces, pools and walkways, furnished with Spanish and Italian antiques and art.

Everything! The reception manager (sorry, do not remember his name) was extremely kind, called us by names all the time. We got the very quiet room as requested. The room was clean, stylish and comfortable. The inner yard green and blooming.

Very nice location, they have a gym and pool - didn’t use any of it but it’s a nice addition for a longer stay. Personnel was very nice and helpful

This Sam Simeon, California hotel is located by the Pacific Ocean and is a 5-minute drive to Hearst Castle. It offers an outdoor pool and spacious rooms with free WiFi.

We stayed for one night on our way down to LA and it was perfect for our family of four. Spacious room and while not upscale accomodation, everything was clean and the beds comfortable. Never used the pool but they recomended breakfast across the road, and it was really nice!

    We always stay in San Simeon when coming to the coast.

    We always stay in San Simeon when coming to the coast. It’s more relaxed with way less people. We enjoy the quiet less crowded beaches. It’s just a short drive to Morro Bay and Pismo Beach. There are a few restaurants to choose from located right there next to every place to stay. There are 2 very small grocery stores/mini marts to grab a snack or something that you might have forgotten. There really isn’t anywhere to souvenir shop. We enjoy the friendly atmosphere and relaxed vibes in San Simeon.

    We Alway check out what's happening at the elephant seal rockery nearby! Then a sweet little town, Cayucos is just a few minutes away, it has several great places to eat. There's even a Great chocolate shop with yummy ice cream next to a good fish n chips cafe. and then there's the peer to walk out on!

    San Simeon is a great place to visit.

    San Simeon is a great place to visit. You are within five minutes of downtown Cambria which has lots of great places to shop and eat. San Simeon itself has the seals, Hearst Castle, and lots of places to buy a lunch and picnic outside if the weather is good.

    Good equipment, but not helpful staff.

    Good equipment, but not helpful staff. Took time to receive an invoice: invoice not available since "the original booking was made through booking.com and we are not entitled to see the pricing". Then nonfunctional printer. Finally, the invoice PDF was promised but never received.

    If you're into nature and the ocean, this is a great place to visit. There are numerous surfing spots. This city is also the home of the Hearst Castle, which holds significant historical values. You can also explore the sea wildlife by watching elephant seals.

    Pacific Coast is one of the few hotels that continues to provide a hot breakfast of eggs and bacon as well as yogurt, cereal, and pastries. The room has a microwave and refrigerator. I usually bring my own food so I appreciate that convenience. The bed is comfortable. The room has hardwood floors and is nicely decorated. Because this hotel is usually the lowest price when I am searching for places to stay thanks to booking.com VIP status, I have booked this hotel at least 5 times in 1.5 years.

    Wow! Hidden gem of a hotel overlooking the Pacific Coast right off Highway 1. I don't think the pictures did the place justice. It definitely exceeded our expectations. We booked two rooms and they had interconnecting doors. A fireplace, which actually came in handy for the night we were there, in August! Go for the room with a patio, it's worth it! The room service food from the restaurant was really nice!

    We were on a road trip stopping at different hotels each night, and this was the cheapest but one of the best for value for money. A variety of coffee, teas, and snacks at reception and a great breakfast included. The room was large and clean. There was a separate restaurant and the food was really good. I chose this hotel for its close proximity to Hearst Castle. We would definitely return!
