Close to wineries and the Pacific coast, everything guests imagine sunny California to be comes alive here. Guests are close to the beach and Cal Poly. Centrally located, a world of adventure awaits, including kayaking, boat tours, spotting elephant seals and biking. Nature is right in the backyard of our Morro Bay hotel. Montana de Oro, golf, Cayucos and Cambria are all just a short drive away.

    The management has spent money and effort where it counts. Very clean rooms, comfortable beds with high quality bedding. The bathrooms are clean and... good toiletries. The pool area is well maintained and the pool was heated nicely. Downsides - the complementary breakfast is bad, the Waffels looked good but I can't eat them. The Mexican restaurant in the parking lot makes a great breakfast. The walls are fairly thin and your neighbors door banging closed can be noisy - ear plugs could help. We'd stay again and bring the kids the next time - they would love the pool. by Jeffrey  from Oakland on 03/30/13

    A short guide to Morro Bay

    A Central California fishing village, Morro Bay was named for its famous landmark, Morro Rock, which was discovered by Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo in the 16th century. Home to birds, sea mammals, and fish, the community is an animal lover’s paradise with a mild climate year-round. Hearst Castle is 28 miles to the north.

    The management of this facility wowed me with their attention to detail. This included what I would call premium bedding, a wide variety of courtesy movies to pass a sleepless night, and a full service breakfast bar. In short, I got my money's worth and would stay here again.

    I'm a little skeptical of Best Western's because it can often be hit and miss. But this particular BW in Morro Bay was so clean and perfectly situated that I immediately felt comfortable. The breakfast was not delicious but certainly adequate. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I would come back here definitely when I visit family in Morro […] Bay again! Read more
