Hotels near Cambria Dog Park, Cambria

At moonstone beach, the road is the seaside. There is a small trail that can always walk along the beach, and the sunset is super beautiful. The room was super small, and there was a fire in the fireplace in July. The seaside at night was really cold. The surrounding area was similar to Inn, and there were only two places to eat.

The Blue Dophin Inn is right across the street from the beach in Cambria. It is a boutique hotel with great beds and clean attractive rooms. Our room included an electric fireplace, robes, and a breakfast delivered to our room. I rated it a 4 and not a 5 because the air-conditioning is limited to an open window and fan. The ocean breeze makes this work much of the year. It is less than 10 minutes from The Hearst Castle and a short walk from a great restaurant. In short a great place to stay as long as it is not too hot.

The hotel is close to the sea, the courtyard is actually a little open space at the entrance, there are many hotels around, the so-called suite is just a big room, this hotel is not cost-effective, parking is convenient.

The property is very well maintained. Landscaping is 5 stars. The 2 firepits are nice. Not big, but for enough for like 4 people. Had a double queen room that was clean, and nicely decorated. People at front desk were nice. Some friendlier than others. The beds were on the ”SOFT” side. No firmness in these, which was disappointing ... but my back did ok. Things that need some improvement. COFFEE: the in-room units I always dislike because they are rarely very clean or the coffee very good, and they are messy to use. So they had coffee carafes in the office. But it was usually ”warm”, if there was coffee there. Many times it was empty. The DECAF carafe was ”broken” so the coffee was difficult to get out and it always deposited lots of grounds in the cup. Yuk. They said a new one is on order. hmmm. Seems like they should always have a spare one of these on hand. e.g. always ”be prepared” The pool area needs some TLC and some sprucing up. Not very inviting, The Hot Tub was warmish water. Housecleaning,. They don't do any once you are there. You can ask for new towels at the office. you pick it up. You have to put your own trash cans outside your room and hope they get to emptying them. And cups or glasses you dirty, same thing. Either clean it yourself or put outside and hope they leave you new ones, Or you need to go to office and get what you need. We were there more than 2 nights and usually at INNS, after 2 nights you get a cleaning, but not here. Just felt there should have been a bit more ”service” for the cost of these rooms. And COFFEE ... that is a biggy. It should be HOT, plentiful.

The hotel is great right by the Pacific Ocean. I walked along the seaside trail in the morning and saw the sunrise! The hotel has a fireplace and an outdoor hot pool. Although it is not cold in winter, we get up early to watch the sunrise after swimming in the pool and soaked in hot water before leaving. There is no place to eat nearby, you can ask for breakfast to the room plus a little delivery and service charges.

The hotel is located by the sea and has a beautiful view, perfect for a scenic walk. The room is upgraded free of charge, spacious, upscale, comfortable, fully equipped, and the living room can see the sea. Suitable for taking children. Although it is simple (bread, coffee, fruit), but after heating, the service staff sent the rain to the room and enjoyed it. It’s easy to find a hotel after you travel to Big Sur on Highway 1. It’s also convenient to eat late.

The hotel location is very good, just here is moonstone beach, you can see the beach after walking, there are several viewpoints within a range of about 500 meters by car. There are also wooden walkways to go. The courtyard room is useless. The small courtyard behind is not close to the sea, facing the high speed, it is better to have an ordinary room, the price is only half. The courtyard room also has more bathtubs, which increases the room area. Moonstone beach

So after a long day of driving south on Pacific 1, both wifey and I were weary and happy to see the Morgan Hotel sign as we came out of the mountains. When we walked into the lobby, there was nice music playing and we were greeted by friendly staff. The room presents nicely when you walk in hence the nice photos online. Then you start seeing the signs of age. The small fridge was very old and door would not close properly. There is no microwave in the room. There was a table fan provided and it was ok to keep you semi cool during the night. Honestly when driving down the Pacific 1, we found it was a common theme when you are close to the ocean so maybe it's not a thing but we found it very strange not having AC in the room. Pros Easy to get to once you emerge from the mountains. It is in San Simeon which is basically a community of hotels. Free parking Pet friendly Comfortable bed and pillows Our room had a fireplace and super comfy couch. Updated bathroom Very nice pool area and breakfast area Cons Very bad internet. I could not even get my laptop to connect! We were at the end of the hall so that may have been part of the cause. I'm a computer guy so internet is important to me. When I finally did get to connect, the speed was less than 1Mbps. This is barely enough to check your email these days. The room was very empty and could easily handle getting rid of the little round side table and adding a nice coffee table in front of the couch OR adding a desk and chair. The room is large but the space is poorly utilized. The TV and remote are a throwback to the 80's. The remote is so old that the finish was rubbing off the back. No sleep timer on the TV. As others have stated the breakfast is terrible. There is basically yogurt and bagels. Nothing is hot, no eggs, no bacon, no sausage. There is ample room to provide a typical continental breakfast and this is the first hotel we've stayed at on our 12 day highway 1 adventure that provided such a bad breakfast. Even the bare basic Best Western hotels have a superior breakfast experience. Summary If you just staying a night and don't care about internet or breakfast, this was a nice clean, reasonably priced hotel with a comfy bed and pillows and clean bathroom.

We stopped here for a night and were pleasantly surprised. The room was very clean and comfortable with a big comfortable bed, probably one of the most comfortable beds of our trip and we've stayed in more expensive accommodations on this trip It's always good when one fine's somewhere like this. It was excellent value and would definitely stay again if we were in the area.
