Top Central Coast California Hotel Reviews

Vinland Hotel and Lounge

Vinland Hotel and Lounge

10/10 Excellent
"We were traveling for 19 days staying in multiple hotels in the west coast states. This hotel was our favorite and our best nights sleep, by far. The beds and linens, and pillows were so comfortable we took pictures of the manufacturers so we can duplicate at home. The location is great. The parking is covered. The staff were very pleasant even during high volume check in. We didn't use any of the amenities so I can't comment on those. A complimentary breakfast would push this hotel over the top. Would absolutely stay here again."
