Hotel Pacific Blue Inn

636 Pacific Avenue, Santa Cruz, CA 95060, United States of America –

Lock in a great price for Pacific Blue Inn – rated 9.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

It’s a quaint little property. Clean, well taken care and quiet.

Peter, United States of America

It was hot in Santa Cruz property manager came up and hooked up an air conditioner for me it’s never hot in santacruz but wasthatday

Mitzi, United States of America

Wonderful ambience, friendly and helpful staff, great location

Eric, United States of America

Great location, it was close to the main shopping area and the ocean

Alexa, United States of America

We loved this gem. The outdoor space had a beautiful glass fire pit that we used late at night, and because of how the buildings are built, there is a natural windbreak that made it very comfortable.

Ann, United States of America

Great location, easy parking. Plenty of restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Staff was friendly and outgoing. Suggestions for eating and what to do in the area were excellent. Room seemed brand new and the courtyard was a nice touch. It was a little chilly when we stayed but my wife and I both agreed next time a little unwind time around the fire pit in the court yard will be a must.

Michael, United States of America

The room was clean and smelted really nice once we walked in. The bed was nice and firm. There was a nice little table right outside the room to enjoy the garden view.

Mai, United States of America

The bed was so so comfy! Staff was awesome. Room exceeded expectations. Overall, amazing inn!

Wish we had booked to stay longer!
We got a super friendly welcome from the front desk upon arrival after our long flight! Property has a great, quiet location within walking distance of boutique downtown - plus fabulous walks on West Cliff Drive nearby. Free easy parking is just a few steps from the hotel. The shared patio space with comfy seating and outdoor fireplaces were beautiful, and we still had a private table for two overlooking it all. The rooms/bathrooms are very clean, quite spacious- and the electric fireplace in the unit was cozy and warm after a foggy walk on the Wharf area. This is a great place to stay.

“No staff on site overnight - other guests very noisy”

Guests in the room above us were very noisy - as in playing very loud music until 6.30 am - despite me having to go knock on their door to request they turn the volume down. I understand this wasn’t the hotel’s fault, but there is no staff on site after about 7pm, so there was nobody about to go assess the situation. There is only an ‘emergency’ number to call if there are any problems. After calling this number, and being told the situation would be addressed urgently, nobody did anything. Tried calling again and there was no answer. The staff on site apologised in the morning, and confirmed that the number to call was to the owner, and that he was aware of the problem as all the other guests staying in the hotel had called the number during the night, yet nobody turned up to the hotel to sort it out. Nothing more than an apology offered - no compensation for a night not being able to sleep - unacceptable!
Great location

The only thing that could have been better were the lumpy pillows. The bed was extremely comfortable, but the pillows were not.
