Top Elfin Forest Preserve Hotel Reviews

Coastal Breeze Inn

8/10 Good

"Aside from a very small shower (with nowhere to put shower items in that space, except the floor) and dirty carpet (discovered the one morning I did not wear my slippers after showering) the stay was what we paid for! Very nice manager checked us in and the ease of access as we moved about what great."

The Landing at Morro Bay

10/10 Excellent

"The room was lovely, clean and spacious. It had a great view of the bay. We enjoyed our stay very much!"

Sea Pines Resort

8/10 Good

"Decent place."

La Serena Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We've stayed here with our children before. This being our anniversary, I reserved a king single with a balcony. I had mentioned our anniversary to staff and when we arrived, we found not just a very nice room with a perfect view of Morro Rock but a lovely anniversary card waiting for us. As with prior stays, staff were friendly, efficient and helpful. The building is in fine shape and parking is a snap. We'll be back."

456 Embarcadero Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Nice room, needs full breakfast, parking not the best. Staff not very knowledgeable. Offer access to local gym staff nothing about it."

Masterpiece Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay here. The staff was friendly and helpful, made an excellent recommendation to eat dinner at Dorn’s Seafood. The room was very comfortable and clean, the only thing was not being able to control the temperature in the room, we would have preferred it be a tad cooler. Breakfast in the morning was delicious. Would definitely recommend this hotel to others."
