Very nice historic hotel. It was pricy, which is to be expected from a historic place, but it didn't include any amenities to go with the price...no breakfast, and spa service not available for upstairs guests since their are no elevators to transport tables. Not even a restaurant discount for hotel guests. The hotel is walking distance to many restaurants and shopping and it is also across the street from a popular park. Beautiful and tranquil koi pond view as you may dine outside if you wish. Clean rooms and friendly staff. read more

We recently had a group of friends from various locations meet up at the Inn for a 2 day reunion and had an excellent time and the Inn could not have been more helpful coordinating all the rooms etc. I wanted to do a special shout out to the front desk for assisting me with confusion with Expedia when we changed our dates from Friday/Saturday to Sunday/Monday. They went above and beyond to help me with it. We now are planning a return visit in December with the same group, and now all the adult kids so we are looking forward to it!! read more

The property is well located to the center of town. Walking to restaurants, bars etc is very easy. The hotel is older, but the grounds are very nice. They have updated electrical fixtures, ie changing out can lights to LEDs, but in our room they left the ceiling sheet rock cuts un-patched - not a big deal. They also texted me one day into the two night stay to see how things were going and to comment - nice touch. I responded by letting them know the heater in the room again failed and wouldn't turn on. The night prior I called the front desk and they dispatched a maintenance man and he was able to fix the thermostat by removing it from the wall, cleaning it, tightening up wiring etc. It worked for a few hours then shut off in middle of night. I tried to get it to work, but at 2am wasn't interested in waiting up for a repair man. In the morning, I stopped by the front desk and asked if they could again fix the heater and drop some clean bath towels. The front desk clerk apologized and stated she did ask maintenance to come but maybe he didn't? When we were back at the room later that evening, the heater was still not working but it was late at night and again, was not in the mood to wait for a repair man. I'd like to give them a better review based on the staff being friendly, but I don't think I can recommend the Paso Robles Inn to anyone. Especially given the price of the room, you are better served by staying at a much cheaper property down the road for 1/4 the price or paying a few dollars more for a much nicer property. This hotel is 100% about location and unfortunately that's all. read more

My husband and I have stayed at the Paso Robles Inn twice. Both times we have enjoyed our stay. We enjoy wine tasting in different areas and we have found this area has great wine. The Inn is located in a great area for walking to a good variety of nice restaurants. This time we tried the restaurant at the hotel and we were very pleasantly surprised with the food. The rooms at the Inn are very clean and comfortable. They have a nice swimming pool area with a hot tub. The garden courtyard is beautifully landscaped and very peaceful. It was a great get away for the weekend and we will certainly return when we are tired of the gloomy bay area weather! read more

We paid $250 (including tax) for a tiny room. Very overpriced. Service was minimal. We explained we had to leave at 4am and were told check-out was no problem. When I went to check out, no one was around. I had to wake up the night clerk... Not worth the price of the room. Looks good on the outside, tiny and uncomfortable on the inside. read more

This place is super conveniently located - near downtown Paso. However it needs a bunch of work. I booked a queen sized fireplace room. However, the fireplace was horrible. Its the source of heat in the room but when it isn't running, it clicks and makes a ton of noise all night. It woke me up and kept me up both nights we stayed here. The pillows also suck. They seemed like fake down pillows that had gotten wet and were subsequently super lumpy. read more

We ordered a spa room and were very disappointed. No instructions how to use it and once tried, the spa was broken. At least they refunded us the difference in room rates. Would not recommend the Inn. Overall for the price, we were not happy with what seemed as a lack of good oversight. read more

We recently used the ballroom at The Paso Robles Inn to celebrate our parents 50th wedding anniversary. I found the entire staff to be incredibly accommodating and helpful. The food was fantastic and the service outstanding. Working with the event coordinators proved to be a smooth and easy experience. They delivered what they promised and beyond! I would use them again in the future. Debbie McManis read more

From my understanding of the people who around here the Food here is a Hit or a Miss. They started me off with the bread which tasted like you were eating a sage brush. I had the Prime Rib which parts were really good and the rest just bleh. The sauce for the Rib is excellent. The price overall is way too High but the quality of service compensated..granted me and my wife were the only couple there. Ill stick with Popcorn and a Redbox next time I go on a date with my wife. read more

We were a group of 3 couples and stayed at Paso Robles Inn on 6/11 and 6/12, We had a most enjoyable experience at the hotel and in Paso Robles. The hotel is an historic, grand hotel and it has been well renovated. The buildings, rooms were well maintained and in good condition. Hotel offers free parking but parking can be a little tight. Bedroom was spacious, well appointed, linens clean, beds comfortable, bathroom spacious and clean. Room has big mini fridge, complimentary coffee, ironing board, hair dryer, good free wifi. Room also has the cutest little balcony with a table and two chairs where you could sit to read, drink your coffee or wine and relax. Although located right in town across from the city square/park, the hotel is not noisy. The hotel is composed of several separate buildings which enclose a very pretty courtyard with ponds, running brook, swimming pool/hot tub and beautiful flowers. Ask for rooms that face the courtyard if they are available. We had 209 and 207 which face the courtyard. The building we were in has no elevator, so if you have a problem with stairs, ask for ground floor rooms or building with elevator if there is one. Our rooms did not have the hot spring/spa tubs so we did not smell the sulphur/rotten egg smell as other reviewers complained about. Hotel has an upstairs bar and a restaurant that features steaks and has alfresco dining in the courtyard. We did not use these as we had dinner at Artisan (see my review on Yelp). Staff is friendly and helpful. Rates are not expensive for rooms without hot spring/spa tubs. Did booking through Booking.com. Paso Robles Inn offers very good value for the price we paid ($130 per night). It is not a luxe hotel but definitely much, much more than basic. It is a perfectly good, charming, great hotel for a good price to stay in in Paso Robles. We will stay here again if we revisit. read more

Niki G, waitstaff old, tired and burnt out. The Paso Robles Inn and Steakhouse is a very busy restaurant. It takes alot of stamina and energy to handle the volume of the guests in the restaurant. So to say the waitstaff is tired and burnt out is not only mean, but very immature on your part. I am part of the waitstaff, and we as mature servers deliver professional service and take our jobs very seriously. Have a better day today read more

You couldn't pick a better location for a hotel in Paso Robles than this inn. It is situated immediately across the street from the main plaza, and convenient to many shops and restaurants. The gardens are very nice, as is the pool and spa. However, the standard room (which we had) was quite small, had no dresser for clothes (just shelves in the closet). The bathroom was inordinately large for the size of the room, so that was the major plus. The temperature for the room was perfect -- no loud on/off noise for heat -- a major plus. The walls are quite thin, so my earplugs and personal fan came in handy. Overall, a pleasant stay, but next time I'd probably upgrade my room just to get some additional space. A value hotel, for sure. read more

We recently stayed here on my birthday weekend. Great location, very nice staff (excluding Amber she was pretty rude) but otherwise everyone else was awesome. Waited for dinner for over 2 hours, apparently a big group in the bar took over the cook that night!!! The rooms and grounds are beautiful!!! would stay here again. Not sure I would attempt the steakhouse, for prime prices, shouldn't have that experience. read more

So, I like this place, love the old school history. I've only stayed here twice, but have been upstairs in the bar many times on my trips from SF to LA. The staff have always been really great, professional and friendly. But am I really, as an adult, prevented from accessing whatever aspect of the internet I feel like. Is everyone here treated as if they are underage or.....what, Christian evangelical? Don't get it. If this is the case, won't be back. read more

Horrible front desk service! Showed up early to checkin came back in an hour and waited in the lobby while they allowed three other parties to check in early the last one being the same type of room my husband and I had been waiting for. Then magically our room was finally ready. The girl could not figure out how to run the charge of the room on one credit card and incidentals on another card and asked her manager. Her manager simply said yes you can do that then walked away and didn't show her so she could figure it out we had to go to withdraw the cash (more then enough to take care of the room). Will never come back. Have never seen such incompetent front desk staff or management. Great way to end what was a nice trip. Will never recommend this place to anyone. And we had stayed here with my family after my wedding and hosted a brunch here (lots of money!) read more

This quaint hotel is a gem. Not only are the rooms clean and well-maintained, the property is very attractive and landscaped well. The staff was more than friendly and helpful and the price could not have been better. The Inn is located in the heart of this beautiful town, within walking distance of coffee shops and other amenities. For me, there is no other place to stay when I am in Paso Robles. read more

The mineral tub experience was worth the slightly elevated price. However, be aware of the Sulphur like smell that permeates. The room was very nice, very clean and worth doing once. The grounds are beautiful. read more

Hubby and I both very much enjoyed our stay. Mineral spa hot tub marvelous! Sulfur smell no problem if you add into the water the nice sulfur smell cancellers which are provided. Additional plus - we booked the wine tour package. Well worth the price if you like wine and want to enjoy tasting at 4 or 5 wineries and not have to worry about who is the designated driver. All in all a great little getaway which we will probably repeat in the near future. And p.s. the gardens and landscaped areas are beautiful!! read more

I want to preface this post by saying I rarely write a review, usually reserved for amazing service or the opposite. This is not the amazing service post. Rates are north of $250 and a type of service is expected. When we arrived at the hotel we were told about the water conservation program; for $5 off a night cleaning services will not change the sheets or replace the towels. I want to be water conscious, but is $5 all their time is worth to never enter the room at all? That is especially troubling when we get to our room and black stains are across the top of the white comforter. That evening, my parents and friends are down stairs at the restaurant about 45 minutes till close. We asked for drinks out by one of the outdoor fire pits, but were told no that they could not serve us and we would have to run our drinks down from the upstairs bar. So we went to the bar upstairs, which was understaffed to handle the crowd present for the band that night. Unknown to me, my parents and friends, the customers were enjoying a 420 evening inside the bar and the mangers did not seem to mind. When we brought our drinks down, the hotel security asked us to be quiet over the thumping of the band while we sat outside and down the stairs from the bar. Management must have asked the bar customers to take the smoking outside, so they then smoked immediately outside the fire exit next to the only elevator. The local police visited and didn't seem to care about the marijuana or smoking near the property. When looking for management, no one was at the front desk and the only manager found was behind the bar too busy to handle anything else. Later on that night one of my friends called the front desk multiple times with no answer. The next day my parents went down to ask about their room and why the bed was not a king like they had asked for and paid for. The individual at the front desk turned them away and asked that they come back later to speak with the manager. When they returned the manager offered to switch rooms for them but couldn't be bothered to get help moving my parents to their new room. These concerns were sent to the management; a week later I have received their response. My father went in the morning we left to log the same complaints and couldn't get the manager. In the email I have received the manager says, " if I had talked to (her)," well we tried. Along with the email is an assurance that the times I mention the front desk being unattended was when multiple people should have been present, I guess they think I am lying. I don't want you to think there is nothing good to say. The Paso Robles Inn is a beautiful location, gorgeous venue for a wedding. The rooms look nice and clean. The wifi could use a boost in bandwidth, but it is adequate. It is just the service, I expected better from a well rated hotel hosting a wedding party. The best I have received from the Inn is an offer for a reduced rate (amount unknown) the next time I stay there. I'm not going back. read more

My wife and I were planning to stay two nights for our 20 year anniversary but only stayed one. I don't feel we received what we paid for. I paid for a queen suite with a spa on the balcony facing the gardens. The grounds we very nice and the room was clean and updated but we were never able to us the spa. The water filled the spa at a trickle; and after waiting an hour we only had a half full spa of luke warm water. The hotel staff told me this was normal! To me it was unusable. We stayed the next night at Sycamore Hot Springs in Avila, Ca. Very Nice! About $70 dollars more a night but you get what you pay for. read more

Had an early dinner with my daughter the other night and was extremely disappointed in the service and the food. There was only one other couple in the restaurant and it took so long for our server to come we almost left. My steak was over cooked and tough, baked potato was luke warm and my daughters Cesar salad was the worst she had ever had. I had a glass of wine that when I was on my last third it had a fly in it! The server offered another glass but I was so grossed out I declined. When I received the bill the glass of wine ($14.00) was still on the bill. The Paso Robles Inn is a landmark in our town and I have eaten there many times over the years but after last night I will not be returning nor recommending to out of town guests. Several weeks ago we had made an inquiry to have a wedding rehearsal dinner there, the site coordinator never contacted me and I am happy that we booked the dinner elsewhere. read more

too expensive. should be a motel 6 rate. rooms are too small. there is really nothing historic about this place. beware!

WARNING: The pillows are HORRIBLE. Ask the front desk at checkIN for feather pillows. Not only were we NOT told that we had options for pillows until checkOUT but our room was never cleaned, towels were not changed, etc.The water conservation program that the hotel runs was NOT explained AT ALL.Our TV remote control did not work.We had their repair/maintenance person in our room trying to resolve the issue but was never able to.So, we could only use the TV if we manually turned it on, changed the channel, volume and power. This is supposed to be a non-smoking hotel. A guest stood outside our patio area smoking each day. We had a ground floor room with guests above us who were running back and forth in their room ALL night EVERY night. It sounded like a herd of elephants were going to come through the ceiling any moment. Between the horrible pillows, the cigarette smoke, and the noise from the guests above us, we didn't get any sleep, rest or relaxation. This is NOT an inexpensive hotel. The only positive about our stay was the hot, mineral spring bath. There are many better choices for accommodations in Paso Robles. read more

After living in Paso Robles for several years, my husband and son finally visited the Paso Robles Inn Steakhouse for dinner. What a mistake! While the food was tasty (the reason for 2 stars), the service was TERRIBLE! The staff saw us enter the restaurant, yet we waited at least 10 minutes before being approached by staff to be seated. When we finally were seated, they had only 2 place settings (we had reservations for 3), and they poured water for only 2, ignoring our son. When the server came to take our drink orders, our son had to ask for water. She seemed surprised he was missed, yet they brought our salads before bringing his water. The entire night we felt completely ignored - it was like we were bothering the staff for coming into their restaurant. For dessert, we told the server we were splitting the dessert between the 3 of us, yet we had to ask for plates so we could split it. We will never return! read more
