We loved staying at this hotel. The hotel was clean, classy, and right on the beach. The restaurant had excellent food and drinks. The rooms were small but cozy and comfortable. The bedding was first class. The housekeeping staff on the third floor was outstanding and the rooms were spotless. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful resport.

the $39/day resort fee -- on top of the other charges -- is offensive but this is the new game getting played

Perfect location. Close to downtown and cal poly. Room was clean and had all amenities. Shower pressure was fantastic. The courtyards and seating areas with fire pits were so lovely, as were the happy hour treats. The breakfast buffet had lots to offer as well. We will definitely stay here again.

Everything was great except that we had to pay $12.00 USD per day to self park our car. There was no mention of the added fee in the terms on our paperwork.

Overall, the property is excellent. However, there was no handicap parking by our room location, and we could have used it. In addition the bidet in our room did not operate, and not all the TV channels that should have been available were available. When we arrived, housekeeping staff in neighboring rooms were banging doors and thus were very noisy.

Recently stayed here and didn’t have the best experience but this last trip was amazing. Staff at front desk, Guinerveve was so sweet and remembered me from last time. The staff at the restaurant went above and beyond. Had an amazing stay.

The Granada Hotel was a charming boutique hotel; only 17 rooms I think. Our room was very nicely appointed. We were only in town for one quick night but plan to return to explore SLO and we will definitely stay here again. Staff was very professional and pleasant!

The rooms were beautiful, the staff was terrific and the pool top deck was so relaxing after graduation festivities. We picked the location so we could walk anywhere downtown. We are sorry we hadn't discovered this gem earlier.
