Top Emerson Park Hotel Reviews

Embassy Suites by Hilton San Luis Obispo

10/10 Excellent

"Clean friendly"

Avenue Inn Downtown San Luis Obispo

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, friendly staff and centrally located. Overall great stay. Would recommend."

Granada Hotel & Bistro

10/10 Excellent

"Fall is Here ~ The Perfect Hotel for any Occasion. Simple overnighter on a Thursday Evening, Farmers’ Market - makes for a Memorable start to any weekend. There are ample restaurants within walking distance to choose from; along with local venders along the market walk !!!A MUST STAY!!!"

Downtown SLO Inn - San Luis Obispo

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room"

Garden Street Inn, A Kirkwood Collection Hotel

8/10 Good

"Am I disappointed no. Would I stay again? No. Pros: Downtown easy to walk everywhere. Clawfoot tub. I stayed in Cocoon. Bathroom window opens to outdoor patio that is closed for service. Made for a nice hot bath in the morning with no annoying people cluttered around outside your door/window yacking. The special egg breakfast - two poached eggs, on greek yogurt with chili oil and dill leaf and some homemade bread? Chef needs a raise because the rest of the place does not match that quality of that dish Cons: Downtown - noisy mornings. Leaf blowers trash trucks etc. Outside patios in disrepair/cleaniliness all around Tv non functional. Honestly its an old B&B this is not a hotel. They should allocate some funds to hanging a nice tv that works in the room instead throwing one up on an old armoire. Tragic. Interior can smell like an old folks home. Old wood. Old people idk. This place is for the quiet older set seeking solace and some story about history. Ethan - nice fella but he needs to bone up on suggestions for F&B etc.. when questioned he really had nothing. Then he reached for a magnum of cheap white wine which i quickly decided I'd try the sparkling because that was like the bottom of some cheap magnum. . For this kind of spend I would invest in some good bottles of local wines for your guests. Not whatever they are pushing. They can do better. No parking. I easily parked three blocks away but ya know..."
