Hotels near The Gardens on El Paseo

"The first room we were given was very dirty and was also an ADA room which we did not request. We were not asked if we wanted this type of room. The hotel is generally old and okay for conferences but definitely not worth the price when compared with the Westin nearby. The outdoor gardens are well maintained and the hotel looks best at night when you can’t see the aging buildings and dreary exterior. We expected a lot more for the price."

"Parking was great. There is plenty of parking right on the street, so you don't have to deal with valet."

"From the beginning, the check in was great the two gentleman at the front ware super friendly and courteous. The rooms are clean. The free breakfast was excellent and the staff making the breakfast and cleaning are exceptional. Please tip them, they work really hard. The pool is clean and the water was nice. The only thing I did no like was the bed, it was too lumpy for my taste, but I will stay here again."

"It was excellent. Definitely worth the stay. "

"Washer/dryer is a plus "

"Our room did not have any shampoo or conditioner requested 2 times I was told they did not have any available "

"Pretty clean facility, indifferent staff, extremely dated. I would avoid."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Hidden Gem We Keep Coming Back To This has to be our 12th or 13th stay at the Otobee Inn over the last couple of years—and we make it a point to come back at least 3–5 times every year. That alone should say a lot. The decor is definitely a bit dated (think late 80s / early 90s), but honestly, that’s part of the charm. It has a cozy, nostalgic feel that’s hard to find these days. Most rooms come with a kitchenette, which is a huge plus for families—you can cook your own meals, and there are also two BBQ grills available. The pool is technically open 24 hours as long as guests are respectful, which adds a relaxed, trust-based vibe you don’t see often. The crowd is another highlight—most guests are friendly, and a surprising number are locals enjoying a staycation. It feels safe, welcoming, and very family-oriented. Great for kids, great for unwinding. Location is super convenient—just about a 5-minute drive to Uptown shopping and several other centers, so everything you need is close by. Now, if I’m being honest… I almost don’t want to recommend it (not trying to gatekeep… but kind of 😅). But seriously, it’s a great place to stay—very affordable, comfortable, and consistently welcoming. Big shoutout to Viviana at the front desk and the entire cleaning crew—they’re always kind, attentive, and make every stay even better. Looking forward to our next visit!"

"Nice clean room "
