Top Ventura Hotel Reviews

Motel 6 Ventura, CA - South

10/10 Excellent

"The staff are respectful and friendly"

The Pierpont Inn

8/10 Good

"The pool is currently closed. I have stayed at this hotel at least 4 times since 2020. There is ongoing construction that has been never been completed. Some exterior parts are an eyesore because of this. The rooms are nice, the view is pretty good and location is decent. Its a little bit of a walk to the pier, short drive to fast food and casual dining (In N Out, Black Bear Diner). A little too far to walk to downtown where there are many bars/restaurants but parking is not too hard to find. My 4th time staying at this hotel and this was the first time that the noise from the 101 highway bothered me. I will come back, but will check other options next time before making a final decision."

Amanzi Hotel, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very very nice and so glad we booked this hotel. Excellent location near beach and many restaurants within walking distance. Clarissa at the front desk is the perfect front desk person. Kind, helpful, and knowledgeable about the area. I would definitely book again"

Beachside Inn

8/10 Good

"If proximity to the Santa Barbara, CA harbor and beach is your priority, the Beachside Inn is a great option. Even if you’re not such a harbor and beach person, this is a great place to lodge. The rooms our two parties stayed in were clean, comfortable and everything worked like A/C & heat, ceiling fan, mini fridge, lights, water pressure including hot water when needed. Our room (302) needed more light, but we had flashlights with us to see down into our luggage better at night. The free to guests daily breakfast buffet was tasty and well maintained throughout the buffet open hours each morning. Coffee and hot tea were available 24/7. Our rooms had a limited harbor view that we all loved. The swimming pool was clean and enjoyable and we liked the sundeck. The staff were all quite friendly and helpful. This is an older, but well maintained property and a very nice place to stay for easy walks to restaurants and to the peace and beauty of the Santa Barbara coast. Keep up the good work Beachside Inn!"

White Caps Motel

8/10 Good

"The property is delightful. It is well maintained, the bedding is lush, the bathroom amenities are adequate, and the small, faux antique 'frig was too cute! The only reason(s) it didn't get 5 stars is that there are no blackout curtains and the battery in the wall clock needed replacing. Not fatal. I would go back!"

Inn On The Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Went for are wedding anniversary. Loved the room. Great Balcony"

Ventura Beach Marriott

8/10 Good

"Clean and great location close enough to walk to beach. Just didn’t like the charge for parking overnight."

Four Points by Sheraton Ventura Harbor Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Nicely situated in marina. Walking distance to shops and restaurants."

Hotel Santa Barbara

10/10 Excellent

"It's been renovated and it's so nice. Super clean and located right on State Street. Parking is in the rear of the hotel, small bar near the lobby - I cannot recommend it enough."
