Our favorite hotel in SLO
The room was spacious, and comfortable. The staff are SO friendly and helpful. We really loved the rooftop bar and the pizza and wine on Monday night were delicious! Also, we love the location. We walked everywhere. Made too many trips to Boo Boo Records! A big favorite! Can’t wait to come back.

This is a GREAT hotel with great staff. It is a bit noisy. Our room faced a parking garage and we heard party-goers at 2am when the bars closed and then also all the garbage trucks at 5-6am. Otherwise, great hotel and great location.

Hotel SLO has been on my list for a long time and it did not disappoint. Room was immaculate and had everything you need, nespresso machine, warm comfy robes (big plus in my hotel choices), modern clean lines, and great balcony. My view of the mountains was stunning. Check in was amazing and they gave me a room on the top floor which I requested. Tips: ask for a room facing tge mission and Madonna if you want a quiet room. High Bar and Ox and Anchor are stellar. Service and drinks/food amazing. We have stayed at other hotels in the area, don’t compare to Hotel SLO. Treat yourself, worth every penny.
