Top Kern County Museum Hotel Reviews

Hourglass Hotel, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"Clean room friendly staff nice view of the pool close to freeway"

Holiday Inn Express and Suites Bakersfield Central by IHG

8/10 Good

"Very clean looking property. Hotel looks newly built. Room was very clean and spacious. Shower pressure was strong and toilet flush power was adequate. Multiple hot breakfast options. Staff was helpful. Only gripe was that the chairs in the pool area were broken and one bent on my mother while she was sitting on it. Inspected the chair and looked like it had crack marks from where it was previously bent. One side of the property faces the freeway so was can hear traffic at night on that side of the property."

Spark by Hilton Bakersfield Central

8/10 Good

"Rooms were clean and staff were good. The breakfast spread was very limited. Basic eggs scrambled or potatoes were missing, any basic IHG or other hotels offer much better breakfast menus, which was a huge disappointment. Rest all was fine."

Comfort Suites Bakersfield

"Liked the clean spacious room. Also liked that there were food option within walking distance. Location felt safe. Parking area was well lit. Buffet breakfast was really good with many hot options kids loved the waffles. Gym was small but had various machines. The water dispenser in the gym did not work. The shower head pressure was low and the water backed up in the tub extremely slow drain. The pool was a nice size and the hot tub temperature was perfect. All staff members were extremely helpful."
