Good place to stay. Walking distance to beach, restaurants and shopping. Parking is a challenge. Stayed here many times. Staff not very available. Love Capitola!
Don’t stay here. The beds are feel like sleeping on concrete with a a thin camping pad. But don’t worry, you won’t be sleeping because the noise from all the drunks on the street will keep you up to at least 4 AM. They even put earplugs in the room which do not help at all!
Enjoyed my stay at the Capitola Hotel. It's right across from the restaurants on the beach and within walking distance of everything we wanted to see and do in the beach area. The hotel has a nice outside seating area so we could relax outside in the shade between outings.

Horrible stay!!! Staff has an issue with communication. Housekeeping kept walking into my room while I was in bed. Creepy!! Let the front desk know I had a late checkout and she was rude and brushed it off. Never staying here again!
It’s cute but it smelled upon entry. Musty. And extremely small. I had the biggest room and it was still small. I know it’s a boutique hotel but damn. My only complaints inside. The outside it just gets noisy bc restaurants and bars are across the street. Beach is walking distance but capitola is not what it used to be. The damage from storms is really bad :/
