    Pool , no children
    Kristine M.

    Child free location!! Yes you heard me , no kids as room guest or in the pool . Makes this the perfect staycation. We booked the anniversary package ( last year -I'm late to post ), stayed one night . Should have booked two ! We definitely want to come back for another staycation. Rooms are small , but have everything you need . We enjoyed an amazing dinner on site .

    Stayed here two nights for a wedding. Overall the place was clean and as expected. Here are some takeaways: Pros: -Cute retro decor -Onsite restaurant/bar -Pool -Good location -Private sitting area with fire pit and outdoor shower -Comfy beds Cons: -Bathroom set up not easy for getting ready, no counter. -No drawers to put clothes away -No iron/ironing board -Noise- People outside early just letting their dogs bark and talking loudly at seating areas outside of the rooms -Check in provided no info just handed over keys and said where to park Overall the price was readable for what you get and it met many of our needs.

    Where do I start? This little gem is a short trek north on the 101 or 154 if you're daring like we were. The lobby is filled with great, specially curated merch and sprawling views of the valley. We checked in just before 6pm. We brought our family dog. They let me know he was welcome on leash anywhere on the property except inside the actual pool. He's not a swimmer so perfect. We had dinner by the pool which eventually turned a gorgeous color of blue-purple at night. The stars were plentiful and the moon practically full. The fire pit was a great spot for after dinner. It's a quiet property. There was a rocket launch the next morning and it was too cloudy to see it but could hear it. Parking was terrific. We got a great spot and unloading/loading was a breeze. The staff was terrific. Alex was in the lobby in the morning and kept the coffee pot and half n half full. Gorgeous views and a few hours poolside the morning before headed to Los Alamos for a little browsing. Perfect stay. Highly recommend for a little reset.

    This "Motel" was such an unexpected surprise! Yes, the rooms are (very!) small, but are also really cute, and they made great use of the space, especially the bathroom, though I would've liked a counter for all of my stuff. For the price (we booked on Hotel Tonight for about $180/night), it's a screaming deal! The property has clearly been recently renovated, the staff is super friendly, it's at the top of a hill, it has an amazing view of the surrounding hills, and it has a cool mid century modern vibe. They have a nice restaurant on the property, and, while we didn't eat there, we did have some cocktails, and they were great. There is no gym, so getting a workout may have to be a hike on many of the nearby trails or a short walk to town to try some of the fantastic food the town has to offer. Bonus: a heated pool and FREE TESLA CHARGERS, and nobody was using them for the two days we were there. Is it the four seasons? No, but I would totally stay there again.

    When I think about motel I didn't except it to be like this It's so modern , situations in the hilltop with a lovely view of the vineyard/freeway ! The room/amenities where great with a affordable price ' They have a outdoor heated pool ( still too cold for us) on site chic resturant we didn't check in but purchase a bottle of wine to enjoyed sitting in the outside fireplace ! Coffee and tea was provided every morning and staff are amazing ! Definetly will revisit if we head that way !

    French toast was good.

    Is it beautiful and a great location ... yes. But the team that serves is really lethargic. It was everyone that works here. So, come for the views and be ready to take care of yourself. It took over 30 minutes for a cup of coffee. It took over an hour for food. There was only one other table ordering food and four people working.

    Charming bedroom. From bed. Not much floor space in this room.

    Beautiful spot right off the 101 in Los Alamos. It certainly has a cool vibe. They're located on top of a little hill which gives you some beautiful views. You'll have to drive up to reception and then back down again so you can go up the other side of the hill to your room. Our room was a little small. Not much room to stretch or do yoga. The bed was firm and comfortable. Shower and bath were clean and really nice. It was rainy and cold on our trip so we made use of the fireplace. It certainly warmed the room up and kept it warm the whole night. There's a restaurant on site. It's convenient but was nothing special. The most memorable part were all the flys in the restaurant. It was odd. Overall, a unique, hip experience.

    Traveling up the 101 at Los Alamos we would see the mid-Century SkyView Motel. We decided to stay a night. What a treat! It takes you back in time to the 1950's (in a great way). Single level rooms, thoughtfully remodeled and designed. The brochure said sound proof wall snd they were. Didn't hear a sound from the rooms next door. Beautiful central courtyard filled with a fountain, fire pit, and inviting seating areas. There is also a beautiful deck off the reception office with views over the vineyards. Very nice bath supplies. Here's a bit of interesting trivia, THE BEATLES stayed here in room 33. Imagine yourself back in the 50's lounging by the pool with a cocktail reading a fabulous book. You will want to hang around the pool all day. Full bar access with Norman's restaurant adjacent. The Skyview motel will be a regular stop for us from now on

    LOVE IT!!!! and the hotel restaurant Norman... wonderful. Especially dinner. The steak and shrimp, yummy. Not the shrimp though. But the steak and the accompanying French whipped potatoes were next level. Wine, so so. I mean you're amidst some fantastic vineyards and makers, so you could do better. The service at dinner and at breakfast were just the best!!!!!! There's a nice little pool, adult only, with bar service. The rooms are darling as well. Really comfy beds and nice bathrooms. All told, a wonderful place to stay.

    A nice find along the way to SB from up north after our awesome road trip. Upscale boutiquey 1950s motel. Would give this place a 10 stars if there is one! Found it online last minute, one hour before checking in. Priscilla took care of us and made us feel so welcome. Such a sweetheart. The service was excellent and we even received a welcoming rose at the restaurant! Thank you Priscilla. The room is small but beautiful, super clean.. luxe feel. 24 hour service! The only minor complaint- we didn't like the pillows - too thick and firm! Hard to sleep with such high pillows. The views of the property overlooking the wineries are simply spectacular. Plan to come back with my friends for a girls weekend. Highly recommend!

    False advertising. There actually isn't any  of the breakfast that is listed- the restaurant is closed.

I read through some of the negative reviews before booking, and honestly, I think they completely missed the mark. This hotel sits right at the beginning of the Solvang strip, and in my opinion, it's the perfect location. You're just steps away from all the shops, restaurants, and even one of the local breweries, but far enough from the center of town that you can actually enjoy a peaceful night's sleep. If you're someone who insists on staying right in the middle of all the action, this may not be the spot for you--but don't expect much quiet over there! The hotel has been newly renovated, and our room was adorable, clean, and very comfortable. The staff was incredibly accommodating and quick to respond to anything we needed. They truly made us feel welcome throughout our stay. The property itself isn't huge, but they did an excellent job making the most of the space. There's a cute full-service bar with indoor and outdoor seating, a café offering breakfast, pastries, coffee, and a surprisingly good selection of food throughout the day. The lobby also has a convenient grab-and-go market, and outside you'll find a cozy fire pit lounge with games and a relaxing water feature that makes for a great place to unwind in the evening. There isn't a pool, but honestly, that's not why you come to Solvang. If you're looking for outdoor adventures, you're just a short drive from Lake Cachuma and the beach. But let's be real--most people come here for the amazing food, wine, shopping, and the charming Danish village atmosphere, and this hotel puts you close to all of it. I'm actually surprised there aren't more reviews for this property because it was completely sold out during our stay, and now I understand why. Out of the several Hilton properties I stayed at during my trip this week, this one was easily my favorite. Great job to the entire team! You all set the standard for hospitality. Hopefully, the San Francisco Hilton team can take a few notes from you!

The bathrooms (single vanity) are large with a nice walk-in shower. There's a coffee/tea service in the room (paper cups). The room lacked a luggage holder.

The Highlights: The Atmosphere: Delightfully non-corporate, unique, and full of charm. The Lounge: They pour fantastic drinks and the staff is absolutely stellar. Just a heads-up: the menu leans more toward excellent bar snacks and bite-sized eats rather than full-blown dinners, so plan your heavy meals accordingly! The Location: Tucked away in a nice, quiet spot, but still just a short, easy trip right into Solvang. Our three days here absolutely flew by. For a relaxed, interesting, and genuinely comfy place to crash in the area, I can't recommend this spot enough.they found out it was our short honeymoon getaw and had a bottle of wine in our room when we got back We'll definitely be back!

The price was affordable and we had booked a few days prior. We were welcomed by the night time Innskeeper, Joan who warmly welcomed us. We were very touched by the warm hospitality and how helpful she was (shared her recommendations for food places and gave helpful tips and showed us a map of the area) She had us checked in less than 10 minutes and we were sent off to our room. The overall room was spacious, cozy, and clean. We had stayed on upper floor. The bed was cozy, there was cable, and the towels were fluffy. The tap water tasted good (they do a great job with the purification) and the shower pressure was perfect after a couple hours of straight driving. There are no elevators so please be mindful of that! They have complimentary coffee and danishes from a local danish bakery from solvang. There is orange and cranberry juice for those who dont want coffee or tea. This is from 7 am - 10 am.
