Top Ventura Hotel Reviews

Clocktower Inn Ventura

10/10 Excellent

"Great location near downtown."

The Pierpont Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Really loved the location of the pierpont inn!! Clean rooms! coffee was provided and microwave in the room. Loved the breakfast! The concerns I have are: The restaurant renovations need to be sped up! I really would have loved to have dinner there! Also, as we walked to the building where the breakfast was located, there was debris all along the way... plants laying all over the walkways :( I do hope this review helps them decide that image and amenities play a role in future guests deciding to book a room here, thanks!"

Cliff House Inn On The Ocean

10/10 Excellent

"The Cliff House Inn provides an experience worth the driving it takes to get around! The restaurant has great tasting food and the continental breakfast was perfect for what it is. The warm pool and lounge chairs situated at the oceans door can’t be beat. Actually sleeping with the waves crashing all night, no better sound machine on Earth! Thank you for the memorable weekend!!"
