Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection
4.2/5113 Reviews
We had our wedding hotel room block at Hotel Paradox and had such a great experience! We looked at so many hotels in the area before deciding to move forward with Hotel Paradox and we now have no doubt that we made the right decision. The hotel set up was perfect for our event weekend. Guests were able to gather around the pool during the day and hang at the bar in the evenings. Many of our guests were raving about their experience at Hotel Paradox all weekend long. The hotel staff went above and beyond to make sure our guests felt welcome all weekend and were extremely accommodating and the food was great too. Having our room block there really added to our weekend and enhanced our whole experience. A big thank you to everyone at Hotel Paradox for making our wedding weekend one to remember!
Fairfield Inn & Suites Santa Cruz - Capitola
4.6/5106 Reviews
My first Fairfield experience for just one night using my Platinum status with Marriott. The check-in was very pleasant and the staff on duty were indeed very nice and hospitable. Room was nice and spacious which made the family feel happy. Appreciated a bath tub in our 2 Queen Room. Parking was in a gated covered garage which felt very safe and secure. Loved the experience at the pool. Was a good size and very clean. Hot tub was a plus point. Gym was small but function for just a short stay. Breakfast the next morning was great. Exceed my expectations and they even had waffles!! Overall, a very good experience and would come back again in future.
Chaminade Resort & Spa
3.8/594 Reviews
This resort/conference grounds is in a great location, and has extensive walking paths through the woods (make sure you know what poison oak looks like!). My husband and I like our longs walks so that part was nice, although the trails are not well marked. However, the room was very small---no place to sit except the bed--and smelled like very old funky carpet. For the price we were very disappointed in the room. Mini fridge was provided, but no microwave--very inconvenient not to be able to even heat up a cup of coffee. They offered to rent me a microwave for $15/day!! Seems very unreasonable, especially because the restaurant on-site was only open for dinner. Luckily town was only a 10 minute drive away. We also had a terrible experience in their supposedly ”nice” restaurant. Terrible service, food was bland, and when they brought our bill she handed us TWO tickets--she had rung up someone else's dinners on my credit card in addition to ours! Wouldn't you notice when you handed someone two credit card bills at one table? The staff did not seem very concerned about this at all (maybe they make mistakes like that frequently??). Very shabby treatment. I lived in Santa Cruz for 10 years some time ago, and I know the property has been there a very long time---they think the have a reputation as 'top-shelf' resort in the area, but I would definitely disagree.
Courtyard Santa Cruz
4.2/5111 Reviews
Never had to write this bad of a review. Terrible experience for the what I spent on. First front reception impression was bad. 2 receptionists, one on the phone helping a lady with an issue. She seemed very stressed. The gentleman helping the rest of us making a line. When it was my turn, my card wouldnt go through. When the lady receptionist was done with the call she seemed like she was about to get a mental breakdown. He then decided to try my card on her side and was successfully processed. He didn’t explain or gave me any instructions about the key. Key needed to work the elevators and power in the rooms I had to figure it out on my own. He Didn’t offer or explained parking, I went back after we unloaded our stuff drove around and found out there was no place to park. The receptionist pretty much just processed my card. I stayed 3 nights and no one went into my room to take trash or pick up the dirty towels. Only thing they did was put a set of clean towels the night before my check out day and that’s about it. I was given an accessible room. I did not ask for one. A light on a night stand were unplugged. Found multiple lotto tickets inside the pull out bed. Toilet paper handle was broken. By the way…..what kind of bar closes at 8? The bartender didn’t seem professional or welcoming. When checking out I was asked how I wanted my receipt. On paper or email. I told her I rather get an email. I checked out around 8am and it’s 435pm and I haven’t received my email. The only people I will say were amazing at their job were the valet guys. They were friendly, helpful and did their job.
Mission Inn
4.3/5101 Reviews
The hotel is on the side of the road, very good to find, but the row of rooms we live in is still very quiet, the room is also very large, has its own parking lot, it is very convenient for self-driving, the price is relative to Large hotel chains are also very cost-effective
Howard Johnson by Wyndham Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk
3.6/582 Reviews
The breakfast is good, but you can do it yourself and eat well. The food in this type of hotel in the United States is similar. The sanitary conditions are also similar. There is a big public hot tub here, which reminds me of a science fiction film, you can try it if you like it! Bring a swimsuit.
