Staff was always friendly ...

Staff was always friendly and helpful. Staying for the Big Sur marathon, it was a nice touch to have coffee, bananas and water available at 3am already for runners heading to the bus early!!

Estéban Restaurant - Nice bar/dinner area ...

Nice bar/dinner area with an outside courtyard with fireplace. Mix of hotel guests and locals. Atmosphere was very nice with several spots for quiet dinning. Food was very good and the service was exceptional. First time there for both my wife and I and we thought it was a great value. I would go back and take others when family/friends come to town.

Hotel was beautiful ...

Hotel was beautiful. Location was great! Walking distance from lots of restaurants and shops downtown. About a mile walk to the beach. Beds were very comfortable and rooms were a good size. We took advantage of the restaurant/bar and spa on site. Both were excellent. Hotel exceeded our expectations, was everything we needed and more for a girls trip

The place was very well pulled together. The staff was extremely warm and friendly. The restaurant manager was very nice and seated us and explained the menu before the server came over. He went over and above! Great central location. Easy to get in and out. Walkable to most things.

Estéban Restaurant - If you love tapas style dishes you will love this restaurant

Delicious high end tapas style food and great wine. We were looked after by lovely wait staff and had a great night out. Not cheap but great value for money given the great food and wine quality and the service,

Estéban Restaurant - It was Christmas Eve ...

It was Christmas Eve and the staff and servers couldn’t have been more pleasant and welcoming. We weren’t totally organized as we brought a dog, a lot of presents and holiday merriment and good will. There was no pressure to order. Wonderful experience, as always. Estéban is our annual destination and tradition to celebrate dear friends and seriously god food!
