Top Downtown Pismo Beach Hotel Reviews

Dolphin Cove Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Love staying here . Live the location and the friendly staff . Rooms very clean . View of ocian was amazing . Would definitely stay here again"

Oxford Suites Pismo Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Oxford Suites is always my preferred stay when I am in the Pismo Beach area. Staff are always helpful, check-in is smooth, and rooms are always clean and well stocked with toiletries. Only small complaint is I cannot have a printed receipt with amount paid for the stay (receipt printed by the desk clerk shows zero amount paid - need this for work related reimbursement from employer)."

SeaVenture Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We will definitely be staying here again. Every staff member was very nice and helpful, staff went above and beyond to decorate my room with rose petals, champagne and chocolate covered strawberries and they also kept it all a secret from my husband so I was able to surprise him. I love our private hot tub with ocean views. The bed was very comfy."

Ocean Palms Motel

10/10 Excellent

"This was was amazing! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and had cute decor. The office offered toiletries, snacks, beverages etc for purchase along with some supplies for your pup. The outdoor seating area was also very cute and shaded. We will definitely be returning!"
