Top Pismo Beach Hotel Reviews

Inn at the Cove

10/10 Excellent

"We stopped at Inn at the Cove as part of our coastal road trip. The setting is spectacular — every room faces the ocean! The fire pits are perfect at sunset, and the breakfast options were spot on - want eggs? want cereal? want a banana... Small enough to feel personal, polished enough to feel special. The rooms are exceptional. Beautifully appointed, thoughtfully designed, contemporary, comfortable beds — and that view — the Pacific right outside your window never gets old. The shorebirds provide entertainment plus - who needs tv. This is the kind of room you wish every stay had. And then there's Bryce. I want to be very specific: Bryce is exceptional. He has the rare quality of making you feel genuinely seen as a guest — not just checked in and processed, but welcomed. He anticipated needs, offered local recommendations that actually panned out, and handled everything with warmth and real grace. If a staff member has ever made you feel like a hotel was *yours* for the duration of your stay, that's exactly the Bryce experience. We will absolutely be back. This inn earns every star."

Oxford Suites Pismo Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are cozy and quite large. Our room included a fridge and microwave. I love how the shower had the option for the water to come from above you as well as through a nozzle. The bed was extremely cozy. Plenty of parking which was nice. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The complimentary drink and appetizer was awesome! The bartender was very friendly and attentive. The breakfast is a gourmet meal; definitely nothing like Continental. Would definitely recommend!"

Sea Garden Inn Pismo Beach- San Luis Obispo

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and very simple enough for a one night stay. Not a lot of storage for clothing and towels were old but freshly washed. Bed was a little too stiff for my liking but decent for a one night stay. Check in was easy and parking was very convenient!"
