I cant wait to go back! Amazing location for a boutique hotel. Walking distance literally for all the shops, restaurants and bars. Comes with a continental breakfast. Bar and restaurant are located adjacent without having to go outside. (I did not experience either) The staff was very pleasant to work with dealing with a business credit card not in our name. The unique decor to each room takes me back to my childhood at my nanas house. The room was very dry but very clean. I was able to open outside windows to get some fresh air which was very nice. Over all would go back in a heartbeat simply for the location.

The Hotel Diamond is the only property I will stay at when visiting Chico. I truly love this property in the heart of downtown Chico. They have a lovely & quaint bar on-site, with awesome customer service & drinks from Shelby, the bartender. We didn't get to eat at The Grill (on-site restaurant) this time, but look forward to having dinner there next time. We stayed in the Alisa suite which overlooks Broadway & I'm in love with this room! I absolutely adore everything about Hotel Diamond. The customer service, the decor, the variety of rooms, the location to downtown eateries/stores/bars and being a close 2 blocks from the beautiful Chico State campus. I would like to commend the hotel manager, Devon Garcia, who I've had the pleasure of dealing with since 2018 when my son started attending Chico State. He is always friendly & ensures my husband & I are well taken care of when coming to Chico. Thank you Devon. I look forward to our next stay at Hotel Diamond.

We stayed here for the first time on our most recent trip to Chico. It's a lovely hotel in the heart of downtown. It is a rebuilt version of the old building, which had once housed a hotel of this name, and the detail and care at recreating the style and decor of the early 20th century, inside and out, is excellent. It is classy, very clean, and comfortable. Service is great, and breakfast is available onsite, a continental breakfast during the week and a voucher towards brunch on the weekend. There is parking in the garage next door. It's a short, pleasant walk to anywhere in downtown or the university. The only negative points are that the shower, which has no hand-held part (all too uncommon in the US, unfortunately) is not very strong so showering is not ideal, and they provide only liquid handwash, not actual soap (also an increasingly common problem).

This was my third time staying here and this was my least favorite trip. It's the smallest room I've had here. The furniture is all janky and majorly knicked up so much it looks like crap. The door on the cabinet where the refrigerator is located does not stay shut and the knob is loose. The pillows were so thick I could not sleep on them. I ended up sleeping on the hard decorative bed pillow. When I checked in, the lovely gentleman at the front desk said the room they had for me was not ready so they were giving me another and nicer room. I'm wondering now what the first room was like. The hotel charges insane prices for massages that one would find in a big city. They also charge if you want an early or late checkout. I've never heard of such a thing in all my years of traveling around the world. Restaurant and bar are separate owners. We were here for a Valentine's Day event in Chico and only had cocktails in the bar, which the hotel provided two $15.00 vouchers. Each cocktail was $15.00 - very pricy for Chico. Both bar and hotel staff are very friendly. The Hotel Diamond needs a come to Jesus moment and realize Chico is not a big city and price gouging is not very welcoming. We will stay in an Airbnb next time.

Robes can be purchased (free to use while you're staying there)

I almost never give 5 star reviews, but I really have (almost) nothing negative to say or that I would change about my stay at Hotel Diamond this past weekend! Although, I didn't experience EVERyTHING the hotel has to offer (we didn't go to the bar or eat at the restaurant) everything we did experience was wonderful! Starting with the front desk staff (two young ladies on the evening of Saturday, Nov.) they were extremely friendly and offered up suggestions for places to grab breakfast the next morning). The hotel itself is clean and well decorated for the holidays! It's location is perfect if you plan on spending time in Downtown Chico. I've seen some yelpers complain about noise, but what do you expect when you're staying downtown in a college town? Our room was very nice (deluxe king room, I think). Very spacious, included a mini fridge with two complimentary water bottles inside, complimentary candy and nuts from Chico, and pretty much every other accommodation you would expect I. A nice hotel! If I had to criticize, I would say the bed was hard for my liking (not the best hotel bed I've ever slept in). Would highly recommend this hotel for anyone staying in Chico and hope to stay there again in the future!

See all

We have really enjoyed our stay at the holiday inn. My husband and I decided to stay in Chico as we…read morewere getting ready for the birth of our third child. We were having to go back-and-forth to the hospital for induction reasons.. When I called to make a reservation, whoever I spoke to was very kind and accommodating, and was able to get a King standard room on top floor and a quiet area so we could all get lots of good rest. The room.. very large. We were quite impressed with the layout, thoughtful design and how large the room was. We've been in plenty of hotels, and this is the first time I've ever seen a standard room as big as this one. The staff overall was really nice and accommodating. Some went above and beyond while others just did their job and that's fine too. Breakfast... It was really nice to have it available especially because we had to get up early each morning to head to the hospital. I do wish consistency was a little bit better. The first morning we had scrambled eggs, which were not the best and I didn't care about the potatoes. They didn't have much flavor. But the bacon (1st day) was good and the cinnamon rolls were good and so were the pancakes. I also liked that they had lots of other options. If you didn't care for the hot options, they had fresh fruit, milk, and juice, oatmeal, bagels, and muffins, etc. They had coffee, hot chocolate, apple cider, and tea, ready to go The second day was a little bit puzzling, but I enjoyed breakfast better. I preferred their cheese omelette, turkey, sausage, hash, brown, and biscuits and gravy on the second day . The other interesting part was the bacon on the second day was very different than the bacon on the first day. I think if there was more consistency with quality than I think customers Would appreciate it . Cinnamon rolls are pretty good though! They offer laundry services so bring quarters and they offer detergent in their little shop. They also have a pool and a gym. Overall, the hotel was really quiet inside and outside, even though you're by lots of other building buildings. There are plenty of places to walk to and go eat and there's a major grocery store next-door. Our hotel room had refrigerator and microwave. Everything looked clean and very updated as it is a new hotel. The biggest takeaways from me was the size of the room in the layout, some of the breakfast items, and some of the staff were very accommodating. The only Con I really had was the inconsistency with breakfast and the quality. But for not having to pay for breakfast, I thought it was a good deal.

Recently they changed price on EV charger. Previously it charged a certain price per kW hour like…read moremost places. Charging my car to full would be about $17. Now they added a charge of $5/hr on top of the electricity charge. What normally cost me $17 was $80!! :(
