Top Pacific Avenue Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus All Suites Inn

8/10 Good

"Felt safe inside and the buffet breakfast was good. Parking $16.50 per night. My only complaint is the room smelled a little like dog / some animal. If you didn’t air the room out with the window or AC, the smell was pretty noticeable. I would still stay here again though. It is overall a nice hotel and even though we were in a room just steps away from the breakfast on the 1st floor, we couldn’t hear all the people talking outside which was nice."

La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Great Hotel with great staff"

Casablanca On The Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Nice friendly staff. Loved our room 316 which faces main st and has a cute bench to sit and have your coffee in the morning"

Hotel Solares

8/10 Good

"It seemed like it should be nicer. Like everything was just poorly maintained. Cracks in the tiles, chips in the paint, everything was just a little “broken”"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Pool in pics looks way bigger then the actual and not enough lounge chairs"

Ocean Pacific Lodge

8/10 Good

"Pretty convenient location and a decent price compared with the astronomical price of many other options. Adequate parking and walkable distance to the downtown and plenty of dining options. I would stay again but would make sure my room was not immediately adjacent to the ice machine ( foot traffic of people getting ice) and the pool ( kids birthday parties etc not great if you’re trying to rest). Air conditioning was a bit loud tbh at least in my room - but on the plus side their wasn’t any drama at night or noise and I think they keep a close eye on the place- it’s a motor court arrangement with rooms facing out so could be vulnerable to randoms wandering through but there was no problem."

Riverside Inn & Suites Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice staff, clean room, affordable. Will come again."

Beachview Inn

10/10 Excellent

"So close to everything in Santa Cruz.. especially the beach. Eateries are walkable too. Good view from the room."
