Top Cal Poly Humboldt State University Hotel Reviews

Hotel Arcata

10/10 Excellent

"The experience of staying on the square in Arcata is so fun but only stay if you go in expecting a lot of noise and partying. The staff is always so friendly and helpful. It's great to walk out to the market on Saturday morning and the 2:00 a.m. noise is a lot but it's a great place to stay."

Cottagecore charm beside the redwoods—steps to trails, minutes to beaches and downtown Arcata.

10/10 Excellent

"The perfect little spot with easy access to the Community Forest, short drives to all the local sights, and friendly hosts. The place was excellently stocked with all the little things that make a spot cozy and welcoming! Would definitely stay again."

Coach House with Loft

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place"

The lemon haven in Arcata

10/10 Excellent

"This is a wonderful family-friendly and pet-friendly home and property. The house is charming, well furnished and roomy. The back yard is fabulous, and we used it many times during our 2-week stay for grilling shrimp to eating pizza to just hanging out and visiting. The yard is fenced so our CA family could visit with their two dogs. Mary is a superior host in every category of hosting! We've stayed at her other properties over the years and have never ever been disappointed. Thank you, Mary!!"

Tasteful Arcata Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"A cozy, clean and well appointed place. Conveniently located close to the University and downtown. You can walk everywhere and it has its own parking. Don't miss The Kitchen Arcata (open Wed and Fri nights) and live music at the Oak Deli and Brewery. Take a walk through the bird sanctuary and wind up at the Redwood Curtain Brewery, where there's a great food truck and possibly live music. If you want to hear some vinyl spinning and sample a panoply of beers, head to the Dead Reckoning Tavern. This is a great cottage in a great town."
