Excellent selection for a hotel! What we liked: -Secure parking lot. -Newly renovated rooms. -Comfy beds, very clean. -Excellent breakfast. -Nice pool areas, relaxing spaces. -Great TV / Channel selection. -Friendly staff Challenges: -Lots of stairs if upper level room. -One way roads on both sides. -Wonky light switches. Overall a great stay and will for sure be using this location again. read more

I was going to give this place a higher rating but I'm tired of being policed by "the management". No you can't charge your EV, no you can't reheat your food. Do yourself a favor and stay at Home2 Suites by Hilton. For $300/night here, stay somewhere else. I complained that their gym equipment is busted (treadmill broken will not work on Incline. Wasn't fixed in 48 hours.) They will police over fixing actual issues. Should deserve zero stars but they invested in their spa. read more

We stayed here for two nights on our way to Oregon. It was our first time visiting Eureka, and overall our stay was okay, but there were a few things worth mentioning. Our first impression wasn't great. The gentleman who checked us in was surprisingly rude. The booking site had listed our teenager as a child instead of an adult, so there was a $10-per-day charge to correct it. That wasn't an issue--we expected to pay the difference--but he made such a big deal about it that it felt uncomfortable, almost as if he assumed we couldn't afford it. It was an odd way to start our stay. One thing I hadn't seen mentioned in other reviews is the location. The hotel is next to several large dispensaries. If that's your thing, it probably won't bother you, but if you're like us and don't enjoy the smell, you'll notice it the moment you step outside or open the window. The room itself was clean and nicely updated. My only complaint was a strange design choice: there was a table placed directly over the air conditioning unit, blocking much of the airflow. We visited in June, and with the warmer temperatures it definitely made it harder to cool the room. On the positive side, the location was convenient for exploring the area and visiting the attractions we had planned. The breakfast also exceeded our expectations. Instead of the typical waffle maker and stale cereal, there were hot options both mornings, including eggs, sausage, potatoes, and plenty of fresh fruit. Overall, I'm not 100% sure I'd stay here again. They have clean rooms, good breakfast, and convenient location. Just be aware of the nearby dispensaries and don't expect the warmest welcome at check-in. read more

5th in Eureka. The room was spacious, very clean, and super comfortable with a big bed that made it easy to unwind after a long day. I loved the upgraded amenities -- a modern TV, a newer refrigerator, microwave, and even a Keurig, which made mornings so much easier. The staff was accommodating and made the stay feel smooth and welcoming. Bonus- bath tub! Unheard of!! Great breakfast near pool area! Waffles, pancakes, real eggs, sausage, potatoes, yogurt bar, and more! Pool area was lovely. Overall, a solid and comfortable experience -- I'd definitely stay here again. read more

What a fun location foe kids. They had an oasis pool And hot tub that was great. The service was friendly and also very good for families. Our room came with a microwave and a fridge. They serve Seattles best and pike place. The breakfast in the AM was decent with a waffle bar and an auto pancake machine. 4the kids loved the fresh yogurt machine and juice machine. Well worth the price for a three night getaway near the redwood trees read more

Worst experience every I came to eureka to see my family and hangout with them at the pool but only 6 people are allowed at a time dumbest rule ever I would not recommend never staying here again food is terrible and staff is so rude read more

Surprised there aren't more lodgings with hot tubs let alone an oasis one! This was the perfect way to end our hiking adventure. That, the location, and the complimentary hot breakfast did not disappoint! Very roomy bathroom and rooms and handicap-friendly. Would definitely stay here again! read more

It was our first time staying at this location and it did not disappoint us! The service was quick, they provided a limousine to drive us to local restaurants! They provided complimentary breakfast and the pool was heated and open late. It was affordable and super family friendly will definitely stay over again! read more

The hotel looks nice- the pool area is also well done. The room was clean. My issue is that due to the age, you can hear everything. This seemingly made person in the room above me appear overly loud. Mind you- I use a sleeping aid, had the ac on and sleeping sounds playing....i was still woken up three times. I brought it to the hotel the next morning all I got was oh sorry, weird no one else Complained, I can give you a late check out. Wow- so I tell you the guy above me and that's the response. For 350 a night and the poor customer service, I wish I would have gone elsewhere. I won't be back to this location. read more

This hotel offered some incredible amenities: - A hot tub that was more like a pool with two waterfalls - A pool that is truly heated that you actually feel warmer when you enter - Great breakfast hours with a large array of hot food items - Friendly customer service at the front desk - Complimentary limousine service to nearby restaurants and attractions - A great outdoor seating area with heaters, tables, and even a pool table - Rooms with comfy beds and good water pressure from the showers My family of 3 only booked 1 night here, but we enjoyed the experience so much that we contemplated extending our stay. We took advantage of the lovely hot tub in the evening after we arrived and in the morning before we left! I recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area! read more

We didn't know anything about this place, just rolled in to see if they had any rooms for the night and they happen to have one. We're happy we chose this place because it was a great experience from the moment we walked into the lobby. Friendly people, super cool place with the best coffee and a very yummy breakfast. They have the best and biggest hot tub we've ever used! They call it an Oasis and it truly is with the decor and the music and the lit tiki torches! They even have a big nice limo at your disposal for free! we really enjoyed our time at this hotel and would definitely stay here again! Lucy and Daryl 02/20/2026 read more

Positives- Great staff, breakfast, pool/hot tub/ lounge area, location, free parking Cons- loud traffic, lots of noise from 2nd floor if you're on the 1st floor We stayed in the hotel 2 nights during a redwoods trip. The area is a little sketchy, but lots of restaurants close by and definitely walk around Old Town/Harbor area to see how charming the city can be. Breakfast and the pool area are wonderful at the hotel, check in staff were very friendly and helpful. We stayed right across from the check in area and traffic noise was really loud, thank goodness for a good noise machine. We could also hear the people upstairs when waking around and using the shower. I do like we could park right outside our door. Large TVs in the room, fridge and microwave, beds are decent. read more

You get so many amenities for such a good price here. The rooms are clean and the staff is so helpful and kind. Free breakfast, free WiFi, a heated pool and indoor pool, and a hot tub. It's also within walking distance of Kristina's Restaurant, which is an affordable and tasty diner. I live in the area now, but if I were to recommend a place to stay in Eureka it would 100% be here. read more

Room was clean, bed was comfortable, staff was amazing, nice atmosphere around the pool and the hot tub. Breakfast was great. Will stay here again for sure. read more

We loved our stay at this hotel! The staff were welcoming and friendly and the bed in our room was really comfy! I also loved the fluffy pillows and slept amazingly well. What we loved most was the oasis pool/hot tub area! This area has a pool and large hot tub. The hot tub has two waterfalls and plenty of seating, which is nice because it easily accomodated everyone that wanted to use it. We spent hours in their hot tub and it was so relaxing. They have heaters, towels, a fire pit, pool table, and lounge chairs. They even have a water filling station for you to fill up your water bottle to keep hydrated. The breakfast in the morning had lots of options, which we loved! I made a waffle and it was the perfect way to start the day. There are things within walking distance, which also is a nice plus. We walked to Stu's Brews Drive Thru and ordered a sandwich and veggie bagel. We Ubered to downtown Eureka for Arts Alive, although if it's not raining, it's a short walk which is really convenient. If you are looking for a relaxing stay, I definitely recommend staying here and spending time in their Oasis Spa area! read more

Best Western Plus Humboldt Bay Inn - Regular pad with two queen beds. - Hotels Near Me - Eureka, California

I don't know if the gentleman working the front desk was a manager or not, but his customer service skills are severely lacking. We checked in super late on the day of our check-in as we had been driving all through the night. We called to let the front desk know and they told us no worries and they were able to accommodate us really nicely. When we woke up the next morning, we noticed that there were two $25 charges in addition to the original charge for our room. We called up to the front desk to inquire about what the charge was for. Immediately, he started off the conversation hostile saying obviously whoever checked you in didn't tell you, but this is totally normal charge for California, kept going on and on about how if we were in San Francisco they would charge so much more, but we're getting a really good deal by only being charged $25 and that the $25 is just a hold and will be refunded.I kept trying to interject saying I'm fine with a $25 charge if that is what is standard, but we have been charged the $25 twice. He kept talking over me, repeating his same script and just got louder and louder. At that point, I knew I wasn't gonna get anywhere with him and told him I would just discuss it when we went to check out. When we went to check out, it was him again at the front desk, and I tried to explain the situation, but I didn't mind paying the $25 fee and then I understand it will be refunded, but that we have been charged twice for the same fee. His exact response was to shrug his shoulders and say 'so?'. At that point, we realize there was just no reasoning with him. My husband then just asked for his name and he made sure to smile real big and spell out Aaron. And thanks to Aaron we have really just been put off by this location in particular, but also Best Westerns in general. And we were never refunded the duplicate charge. We will not be back. read more

The pool area here is amazing! Makes you feel like you're at a resort! Our check-in was unfortunately delayed, but they were having technical difficulties at the time. The parking lot was also kind of a nightmare upon arrival. It was full of large worker trucks and it made it difficult to park, but that also could have been circumstantial for that specific night. One last thing that annoyed us was that they acted like they were strict with the breakfast at check in and gave us breakfast tickets; however, the next morning there was no mention of them in the breakfast room. Not a big deal, just a little confusing. read more

Might be the best Best Western in existence. My only warning would be to ensure you get THIS outlet, not the one near the Bayshore Mall, which might belong to an entirely different chain. It doesn't look like much from the road, but once you're in you'll be amazed by the pool/hot tub/general meeting area. It really exceeds what anyone's expectations would be given that it's off the highway in Eureka. And the place has limo service! Seriously! Another time and we might've partaken in it, but as it was we found plenty to keep us occupied within walking distance (dinner was at a cafe next door). Thank you Humboldt Bay Inn for helping us close out a successful vacation! read more

This place was a great stay. Room was clean and nice, pool was warm and a nice night swim, hot tub was nice and hot, just like the breakfast so many great options definitely worth the $. I would definitely be staying here again. The staff are amazing as well so nice! The showers are also pretty big which was nice as well plenty of space. read more

I rarely post reviews on hotels because they rarely leave an impression but absolutely loved it here. Checked in Thanksgiving day and the lady at the counter in the evening was pleasant. I enjoyed that they have security walking around due to the unhoused individuals that could walk by. Breakfast top tier and amazing options - a yogurt machine ?! Wowed me. They put the heaters on outside too. Room was clean and I felt secure. The man working in the morning was beyond nice and super respectful. Will return! read more

The jacuzzi & pool area are the main attraction. Breakfast is convenient & serviceable, but don't expect anything more than that. We had literally no available power outlets in our room besides one lamp with a USB port, our magnetic room keys malfunctioned multiple times, locking us out of our room. Room smelled musty, the TV didn't work & the soap dispenser in the shower was empty, & the front desk had an attitude... But, besides that, enjoy your stay. read more

The parking is difficult. Access to the hotel is tight so be careful. Saw an accident happen. Other than that the hotel was amazing. Great swimming areas, heated and decorated. A full breakfast every morning from 6-10 am. Great restaurant in the parking lot. Rooms were clean, quiet and comfortable read more

This may be the nicest hotel in Eureka. We found it to be clean with friendly and helpful staff as well as a good breakfast. The pool, hot tub, and play area would be good for families. Complimentary espresso machine in the lobby. There is also a complimentary limo service available (a unique perk). The surrounding neighborhood is close to cute downtown Eureka which has many dining options. The price is higher for Eureka, but more amenities offered for travelers who will stay a few days and spend more time at the hotel. We would stay here again. read more

I just spent 2 nights here with my husband--it was my first and will be my last Best Western motel stay. Our room was clean but I cannot say much more. The breakfast was a nice touch. I think that it was the best stay that we could have gotten in Eureka--it's just a run-down, depressed, sketchy, sad little town. Felt unsafe most of the time--constantly saw addicts walking all over the place. We couldn't get out of town fast enough read more

I have stayed he before without issue but will not return. The man working at the front desk was having difficulty finding the payment information that had been made by a 3rd party. I don't mind that there was a mix-up (and eventually he realized he had the information he needed...oops) but he was rude and condescending the entire time, would not listen to me as I tried to explain things and basically treated me like a imbecile. He smugly mentioned that he had "worked there for more than 20 years" and that I really didn't know what I was talking about. I travel 30-40 nights a year and understand that things happen, but that is no excuse for how this front desk employee acted and treated me. Never going back to this Best Western and will probably not use Best Western hotels as much or at all. read more

Amazing customer service, they really went above and beyond for us during and after our stay. Our rooms were clean and breakfast was expansive. I would like to thank Stacey and all the staff for such great customer service. read more

It's a BW, so you have to adjust your expectations to match what you booked/paid for. This was a last-minute choice as we were going to get another 100 or so miles in on our road trip for the day but decided to stay put. Overall staff was friendly & helpful, breakfast was pretty good and dining area was clean, and check-in was a breeze. The room had all of the advertised amenities but clearly had been cleaned/prepped in a rush. Lots of hair left over in the bathroom and a sticky mess on the console. Otherwise would have given 5 stars. read more

Very nice hotel and rooms but staff was unfriendly and difficult. My mother in law booked this hotel after reading reviews on Expedia. Expedia told her that her 2 babies, who are 2 and under, would not be counted as children in the room. Upon arriving and checking in, the clerk at the front desk told her that this is not their policy and they ended up having to get another room and move. They told my MIL that they would be "watching her on the cameras" to make sure she has the amount of people in her room that she claims to because we had guests coming to visit during the day who were staying at a different hotel. read more

We stayed at this hotel as a middle point on our road trip up North. We were extremely pleased with our stay - the rooms were very nice, CLEAN, renovated, and beautiful. It even smelled nice when we walked in! The staff was very kind and the amenities (beautiful pool/hot tub, fitness center, breakfast lounge, complimentary limo rides to local restaurants) we're great! We were about an hour away from Humboldt County Redwood state park and an hour and a half away from Redwood Natl Parks. We would stay here again! Highly recommend! The other hotels in the area seem old and run down. read more

This place was very nice, great rooms, Pool area ( wish is had taken my bathing suit) , breakfast area was fabulous! Price very reasonable close to a lot of shops! On the way there just a note it is on a one way street! Hotel is on the left side! Parking was great too! We attended a community play which was up the street.. I say perfect location! Costco is close by! We stayed at another Best Western on the way up as well! Love Best Westerns! read more

I got there expecting to have an enjoyable stay and Ryan at the front desk ran us through the ringer. He went on and on about how *if* we had too many kids, we had 3, which we told him, he would have to "kick us out" which he said "would be embarrassing for him and for us" when we questioned what a family with 4 children would have to do he said "They would have to be able to afford a family suite because this Best Western is *higher end* and people have to be able to afford it." The experience went on and on and EVERY interaction I had with the man was absolutely atrocious. I will never stay at this particular Best Western again. If you have a family, please either don't stay here or send your husband in to check in because Ryan had no problem treating all the working class men around us with respect. The guy obviously has a problem with women and most likely serious mommy issues.*Pro Tip* The Comfort Inn on the south side of town is so much nicer for families. read more

This place is a hidden gem! Absolutely loved staying here for my mom's birthday and Mother's Day weekend. The front desk host Michelle was so helpful in making our stay special and showing us all the lovely places around town. The food and shops close by make this place perfect, not to mention the oasis tropical pool area. They also have a complimentary limo! Will definitely be staying here again! read more

We have stayed here at least 3 times now and love it. Affordable for how much you get. Our favorite things about this hotel are the gym, the espresso maker, the cleanliness, the breakfast, and the hot tub. This is privately owned and the attention to detail and overall care shows. As a gym rat, it's hard to find hotels with such great gyms. Highly recommend and we will be back again! read more

One of the memorable BW+ because of their Oasis pool and hot tub, beautifully trimmed trees (bonsai style) and super friendly accommodating service at the front desk. Overall, everything looks up to date and well maintained. Lots of maintenance men walking around. The rooms are standard and clean with a microwave and small fridge. I don't go into many pools and hot tubs, but this tiki inspired pool area is clean, filled with unique touches and the hot tub area has Hawaiian slack-key and Hawaiian style music piped in. Mahalo! read more

We stayed at Best Western Plus Humboldt Bay Inn for three nights over the summer. The motel felt like an oasis in a sketchy-feeling area in the neighborhood. While it was older and somewhat dated, we enjoyed our stay and didn't experience anything negative. Our 2nd floor room was spacious, beds were good, the in-room refrigerator and microwave were put to daily use, and I really appreciated the free breakfast options. We didn't use the pool area but it was cute: tropical-themed with tiki torches, firepits, a hot tub, and a lot of of patio furniture. read more

Steve definitely found a hit with our accommodations on our recent trip to the Redwoods and Eureka, CA. Hotels for me at least can be troublesome with loud parties, people giving zodiac readings all through the night through paper thin walls, drunks and just weirdos in general to prevent you from getting a good night's sleep but that wasn't the case here at all. It was very quiet here and noise from others wasn't a frustration here in the slightest. Of course traveling when it's not tourist season helps too. The front desk was super friendly and very informative about when breakfast was and things to do that were close to us. The continental breakfast was pretty good. They had all of the basics and a bit more. You can make your own Pancakes and waffles, get fresh fruit, yogurt, juice, breakfast sandwiches and more. Really loved the pool and hot tub area but unfortunately it was out of season and they were all closed up and it would have been too cold anyway but when it's warm this whole area looks wonderful to relax at. By looking at the pictures the main swimming pool looked indoors because I saw a roof but it is indeed an outside pool with a overhanging roof so that's something to keep in mind if you come here and swimming looks like it could be an option any time of the year since it looks indoors. No frustrations at all to report with our stay here and if we are back in the area this hotel will definitely pop into our minds first! read more

Best Western Plus Humboldt Bay Inn - Walking about the hotel area as we get ready to explore Eureka! - Hotels Near Me - Eureka, California

At first seeing that it was more of a motel style style I started to have low expectations. Those were well succeeded after we go to the room and when to the pool area! We are actually staying in late April so the weather is a bit cooler and misty/rainy but the pools are heated and their is a hot tub that is super relaxing . I brought my 5 kids here for our first stop on our road trip. They loved it! And the staff really implements the rules so that is pretty nice for other guests who are trying to relax. The pool is in a separate area from the spa/hot tub area so that helps with the sound of children. Everything was clean and well maintained. You do need to sign a paper for how many guests will be using the pool area. We had to upgrade our 2 bed room to a family suite because we had more than 4 guests. It was an extra $200 on too of the $190 (cheap cost from Expedia) . The room is spacious and actually turned out to be a nice upgrade. Overall we will probably make this a stop every time we do a west coast road trip. As far as food and shops ... there are lots of local places to eat and a target less than 2 miles away. read more

I went to the other Best western and I got to say..I was a little worried as there was some funny business going on outside. The hotel receptionist was super nice and then informed me that I was at the wrong one and gave me instructions to the BW Humboldt bay. WOW what a difference. Super close to shops and even better, super close to a nice beach walk. I had a great, clean room and amazing parking...right outside my room. Only negative, id say was more due to the town than the hotel - What the hell is up with people not picking up the dog poop after their dogs in Eureka. Holy hell...there was so much dog poop outside the hotel and down by the beach annnns by the zoo. I get it...it's nice traveling with dogs...but JFC people.. pick up after your pets. Even my 6 year old noticed and was asking me what the hell that was about. The breakfast was pretty sweet too.. and all the workers were super polite. Ill def be staying here again. read more

This is a best in class motel. Super clean, efficient and luxurious! They have gone the extra mile to ensure everything is upgraded and nice. Excellent full breakfasts, pool with waterfall, hot tub. Both suites and rooms are well appointed with microwave, refrigerator, keurig. Towels and bed sheets plush. Comfortable beds, windows with plantation shutters. The suite is amazing with changing light huge shower. The woman doing the breakfast was super conscientious & efficient. We love this place! read more
