Hotel Buena Vista - San Luis Obispo

Location is just out of the way where you feel secluded but it’s close to downtown. Easy to get on and off the 101 if you decide to venture out for the day. Facilities were clean and I was looking for something that was budget friendly since I’m a local and to the area and just wanted to get away to another town for the night. This area caters to tourism and $300 a night is wild. This place is perfect. Staff was friendly at check in and helpful when I had questions. Plenty of rooms spread out to where I didn’t notice neighbors. Noise was nonexistent so that was perfect. Room was spacious and easy to cool during this hotter weather. I will return and recommend to anyone coming from out of town, since I am part of the industry locally.

This a nicely run hotel, modest but super clean and has everything needed for comfort. I’ve stayed several times and prefer the executive rooms which feature kitchenettes and are located in a newly renovated building in the back of the property. The staff is friendly and there’s many thoughtful amenities including little picnic tables and garden nooks, a barbecue and pool area. Its on the hotel row just a skip away from the cal poly campus. Walkable distance to restaurants as well as campus… There’s a buena vista too, seen from the little lobby.

They accommodated my request to have a room on a high floor with a balcony (although one of the check in clerks was adamant on giving me the room-stating they don’t guarantee anything & she wanted to call & see who confirmed my request 👀🤷🏽‍♀️, I showed her proof that I received a confirmation back stating my request had been granted as well as they gave me a 1pm check-in that I didn’t even request , which was awesome 👍🏽🙏 The facility was peaceful and quiet, there was a convenient gas station across the street, my room was roomy and clean with a balcony to get fresh air, the beds slept so comfy and the AC kept us cool. The hotel is approximately 15-30 minutes from all beaches, there was a coffee maker, fridge and microwave in room & coffee/tea offered in lobby. They have several patio settings to sit out front and free parking.

Lovely front staff. Clean room with plenty of space and nice pool view. Soaking in the spa under the stars while the wind blew through the palm leaves was magical!
