The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa

The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Had a really nice time for my first stay at this historic hotel. I made sure to save enough money so I can experience all the hotel had to offer. Every restaurant. The Afternoon Tea and Sunday Brunch Buffet experiences. A tour that included the catacombs. Room Service. Valet with 24hr in/out privileges. Drinks from both lounges. Irvine & Roberts wine. Was not disappointed or underwhelmed in any manner. The foods were exquisite and the staff were awesome. Frank Miller’s mission was to make each guest feel like they were home when they stayed at the hotel. And that is exactly what it felt like. The room was so comfortable, with amenities for every need as a guest. And I liked the fact that my room’s design was the only one in the whole hotel - since all 200+ rooms have their own look! Added to the personal experience. 9/10"
