Lamp Liter Inn

Really nice staff, wonderful vibe. A "60's" feel.... like the way I grew up. Really nice big clean pool, the place has nice smelling plants all over and a "garden like " atmosphere. It is like a resort! Also the little diner restraunt is convenient.. diner comfort food. No free breakfasts.. Rooms are old school, clean and comfortable.. not the Ritz […] but I don't like the ritz anyway. Read more

The location was convenient and in a safe area. The grounds were pleasant and the room was comfortable, although a little old, Still, the room was not unpleasant. Staff was courteous and helpful. All-in-all, a pleasant night's stay.

It's always nice to chose a hotel that isn't part of a major chain and come away with a positive experience. Admittedly, there aren't many choices of hotels in Visalia, so I decided to take a chance based on their advertisement. They call themselves a garden hotel and their description is warranted. The grounds were immaculate and we were immediately […] impressed as we drove in. The room was great. It was spacious, clean and welcoming. Although we didn't make use of it, the pool was sparkling clean and looked so inviting. The only thing I would suggest is if they might offer a hotel special for their guests at the adjacent restaurant. Other than that we were sufficiently impressed that we will be returning for another go around! Read more

I would most definitely stay there again. The Lamp Liter Inn coffee shop next door was also outstanding and the service was great.

I pulled up to the hotel and was a bit dismayed because of the old fashioned sign but was pleasantly surprised to find the whole experience very nice. I ate at the diner and the food was well priced and tasty. The grounds were well manicured and the pool was inviting. The curb appeal of the back sides is not the best but the beds, room and experience […] was very nice. I will go again if I visit again. Read more

Looks a little scary from the parking lot side of the building, but the garden view is great! Clean room. Nice room for the price.

Hotel has central air/heat. With temperatures predicted to be in the 80-90's the hotel had not switched over from heat to air. After the first miserable nite, I was told it would be on the next day. That was untrue-so at 4am I went to the front desk to ask for a fan. They had none. I think they need to remodel so each room can make their own choice, […] either AC or heat. Wall plug between beds was not making constant contact which caused light and radio to go off. Read more

They need to change the central heating/ac. My room was so hot I thought about opening the front door to sleep. The heat and ac are only adjusted by the front desk....bad idea!

The hotel rooms do not come with resident controlled AC or Heating. I had to "borrow" a fan from the office to keep air circulating.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I really liked the grounds; they were well kept and very colorful; lots of flowers. The pool looked nice as well. I'd like to visit during summer.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We had to be given "other' accommodations due to some structural damage to the rooms assigned us. Lots of communication misunderstandings when assigned new room(s). After the second room was assigned and found inadequate for our party, we were assigned the 'standard' rooms at the rear of the property. Neither room was cleaned and confusion reigned due […] to a large meeting that took place that weekend. The air conditioner in one of the rooms didn't work. It spewed hot air on any setting. Had to open slider to get fresh air in room. The other room; one of our party members was brushing her teeth the next morning and the faucet fixture literally came close to being removed from the basin! Could only get hot water, etc., etc. I'm sure those things don't happen all the time, but for us, it was a comedy of errors at the property. As a native Visalian, I've attended a multitude of events at the Lampliter, but this was my first time as a guest since I moved out of the area a few years ago. The housekeeping staff was very efficient in making it comfortable for us with all that was happening. Nice grounds and staff. Read more

This was the most beautiful, scenic room. Great beds and pillows, clean rooms, nice handicap shower. Very scenic garden room, enjoyed the beautiful landscaping.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This motel was new back in the 1960's, so it is retro, but in a pleasant way. And yes, the key is actually a KEY! Upkeep is fine; our room had perfect tile in the bathroom, very good paint on the walls, and comfortable queen-sized beds. Ask for a room in back away from the street or garden area and you won't hear road noise. The heater had only three […] settings: off, high, medium, and low. I turned it off at night because even low was warmer than I like. Don't look for a continental breakfast, but the attached coffe shop serves good food; my 3-egg omelet was good and the fruit I requested as the side was generous and tasty. And the room price is also retro, leaving plenty to pay for the breakfast. Read more

It was nice! Beautiful scenery, quiet, romantic, affordable, and the food was great. Just right there... the only thing is ... for the price of food they need to put bigger helpings or charge alil less.. Other than that it was GREAT!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Lamp Liter Inn- lobby looked like the Brady Bunch House. ADORABLE. The hotel room was perfect, clean, easy access parking right in front of our room. LOVED IT. The grounds are perfect. It does not even look like a hotel. It looks like a nice apartment complex. Felt very safe!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Great service and a nice clean room with really comfortable beds and very very hot water. Not the fanciest looking place from the outside, but considering the cheap price of the motel that's to be expected. There's also a restaurant attached to the motel that serves an excellent breakfast.

Loved the room, the garden, was very nice!

Friendly staff, very clean facility, great budget option.

Check-in was fast and friendly, they were ready with keys without confirming reservation. The hotel's lay-out was great- important because I tow a trailer. Grocery store, fuel and plenty of restaurants are near the hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Only stayed one night but found this hotel to be very accomidating, charming and convienently located. Even though it was Jan. 25th when we stayed there, the gardens were still very nice, I would advise paying the extra small charge for a garden view room. I imagine they are just gorgeous in the spring!! Great value for the price!!!! I will be staying […] there again any time I am in Visalia. Read more

We were in Visalia for a funeral and just needed a place to stay for one night. This was perfect. The hotel is old, but very well-kept and clean. We were pleased with the service of the front desk. Our hotel faced the garden and it was beautiful. The location is great as it's right off the freeway and close to lots of restaurants and gas stations. Not […] sure I'd want to stay longer than a night or two, but it was exactly what we needed. Read more

I have stayed here twice and both times the water in the shower turned from scalding hot to icy cold and back to scalding hot. I hope they fix it because it's a lawsuit waiting to happen. The inn's gym is also indefinitely closed. Otherwise, my two stays were fine. It's a quiet and safe location and the staff is friendly.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We just booked this hotel for an overnight stay but it was clean, quiet and comfortable. The office staff was pleasant and the grounds of the hotel were very pretty. It could benefit by having more seating on the ground floor patios so that one could enjoy the grounds. The hotel is a short distance from the old downtown area so the location is not as […] desirable for someone walking to the restaurants and shopping. It has a very good onsite cafe and there is a small shopping center on the other side of Mineral King Rd. I think that the price for the room was an excellent value. Read more

This hotel was way better then our expectations. Beautiful grounds, easy on off from freeway, close to down town, resturant walking distance or short drive to many selections. My wife and I also brought my finacky Father and he was way more than pleased also, and if he's happy= any one would be happy !

The personnel was very helpful and freindly. The room was neat and clean. The garden area is beautiful and well kept. The rooms are alittle dated but a very good deal for the money.

I always stay at this hotel. I have a lot of family in Visalia so I visit often. I have stayed in many different hotel in the area this one is my favorite. It's in a quite area, the garden is beautiful, and the staff is wonderful! My only complaint was the mattress. Everything else was superb!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Old hotel lacking modern amenities like strong wifi. Also, my TV didn't work. Beyond the need for a remodel. Never again.

The service was good room was clean with a nice view of gardens Easy to locate Good location to where I was visiting Would absolutely recommend this hotel

Genuine Expedia guest review

Pleasantly surprised by recent stay at the Lamp Liter in Visalia. Usually stay at one of the "chain" hotels when in town but have a newly adopted rescue dog. Great to have a pet-friendly alternative in Visalia. You can tell the Lamp Liter is cared for by a committed team of folks. Grounds are beautiful, room was clean, staff is friendly. The only thing […] missing is a hot tub. The pool looks great for summer but a hot tub would be a nice touch for fall/winter months. Otherwise two thumbs up. Read more

this hotel is OLD. As in you get an actual metal key to your room. BUT it is NICE! The grounds are gorgeous! The staff is super friendly. The rooms are clean and nice. The bathrooms have been updated. Beds are comfy and walls are thick (as in you can't hear your neighbors talking). We had big windows looking into the garden. The pool is HUGE. It is […] super convenient and at a cheap price. I would definitely stay here again!!! Read more

The gardens very beautiful, even with the rain I had during my stay. Hotel staff are helpful and "go the extra mile" to make your stay comfortable. The rooms are old but I was told they are in the process of updating them. Heating was a problem but they solved this with a portable unit they let me borrow. Overall my stay was very good. Good enough to […] stay an extra night. Read more
