Stayed in room 10 for a weekend. I am a light sleeper and unfortunately, the people who were…read morestaying in the room above room 10 were heavy stompers and liked to stay up late and wake up early. Also Room 10's windows is right next to the bus stop, so you hear a lot of conversations and a lot of loud cars drive by. Fortunately the hotel provides earplugs and an eye mask which was really cool. There's also a complimentary breakfast from 8-10 and I appreciated the 2 clearly marked gluten free items on the menu.

The hotel is in good shape and my room was newer. But, the room wasn't well designed. For example,…read morethe desk is too small to work and there are no outlets. Also, the TV didn't work. The bathroom setup is funky and doesn't flow. The breakfast nook area is quaint and the food is good. The ladies working the breakfast were fantastic, kind and helpful. The hotel manager, Dante, is pretentious and unhelpful. He is incapable of responding to simple questions. For example, when I asked him for an ice tea he rudely commented that I'd should go to 7-11 down the street or something. Dude needs a break. Anyway, I walked a block or so down the street and found an awesome little place called Kaffene (sp?) that had great iced tea - no thanks to Dante!

Built in 1922, this place operated as a small jazz age hotel. In the 1960's the upper floors were…read moreconverted to residential housing and the bottom floors were used by small businesses. One of the renters Kimberly Walker opened up a small bistro and wine bar in 2009 and called it the Granada as the original sign was still hanging. The following year the property was slated for demolition. Kimberly partnered with three friends to restore the property to its original use and save the bistro. They picked everything out special to compliment the hotel. It is now home to 17 guest rooms, The Bistro restaurant and the speakeasy Nightcap. We had been wanting to come in for brunch and made a reservation for Saturday morning. It was a beautiful day to sit outside on their gorgeous patio to dine. This place is timeless and I love all the history. Sylvia was our server and she was fantastic. She made sure our experience here was top notch. For starters we went with two Mimosas. So refreshing and delicious. From there we enjoyed their deviled eggs. My main entree was the eggs Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was so perfectly made. We loved everything about dining here. Service was great, food was tasty and drinks were delightful. Parking is on the street and can be a challenge. If you can, you may want to walk here from wherever you might be staying.

Decent food, great atmosphere really slow poor service. It's amazing how poor service can ruin a…read moregood meal. We sat at the bar in an empty restaurant and had to ask to be served. Everything we ordered we had to stop somebody and ask if we could order it. Can we order a drink? Can we order an appetizer? I'm sorry can we order our dinner when I came time for dessert we gave up and went somewhere else. Next stop is Hotel SLO

I've been staying at The Butler Hotel every time I visit this area since 2022, and it has never…read moredisappointed me. My expectations have remained consistently high because of the warm hospitality and exceptional cleanliness. One of my favorite features is the open kitchen, which is thoughtfully stocked with many of the comforts you would enjoy at home while traveling. On weekends, the staff often adds a personal touch by offering complimentary wine and pastries for guests, making the experience even more welcoming. San Luis Obispo is a wonderful place to visit, and The Butler Hotel makes me feel less like a traveler and more like a member of the local community. It truly feels like a home away from home, and I look forward to staying here every time I return.

Our stay at The Butler was amazing! We went into the weekend well aware of the reviews of it being…read morenoisy but what do you expect when you go to the most touristy part of town!? We stayed in room 6 - closest to the entrance and we had no issues with passing traffic and train noises. We were the only guests for the weekend it seemed like as the little lot was completely empty besides our cars, which was nice as we didn't have to worry about parking whatsoever. The hotel is not only close to downtown and everything you want to be close to when visiting SLO, but it was also close to the freeway so getting places was super convenient. Both the common space and the room were clean and had everything we could possibly need for a quick weekend stay - it felt like home! Kelly, the GM, was so responsive with everything - we had asked prior if they had a full-length mirror in the room and although they didn't, they even went as far as putting one in the room for us before we got there. Thank you Kelly & The Butler team for a fabulous experience. We'll be back!

This hotel was the best one I stayed at during my Pacific Coast road trip. Hands down. It's…read morehonestly up there with one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at with the exception of ONE thing. The European lights. What on earth. They were just a little bit unnecessary, in my personal opinion, unless it's some sort of money saver and in that case I get it. With that being said, it was a hiccup compared to my overall stay, which was incredible. I booked with an outside website and when I arrived at 9:30 pm they did not have my reservation on file. I was having a day already and this set me over the top. I was not super nice to the front desk staff, it was late, I had driven from San Diego, I was exhausted and starving and I kept showing them my reservation receipt e-mail frustrated. Then I started crying, it was embarrassing guys. The woman at the front desk was SO NICE TO ME. I thought she was going to start crying when I was crying. I was venting to her about a guy and she was so empathetic. It was a wild couple of moments. The other woman who went in the back to speak with the manager came back out and said that although they couldn't find the reservation at that moment she was going to find me a room and upgrade me for my inconvenience and put me in a suite. That was so over the top generous. Then she handed me a bottle of wine for my inconvenience. I don't drink but it was seriously the sweetest gesture. I was not inconvenience these people at the front desk, I cannot say enough nice things about how this situation was handled. The bellhop brought my luggage up to my room for me. When I walked into the room my jaw dropped. The room was unbelievable. Massive entryway, enormous room, most comfortable bed, huge balcony with a massive bed couch outside, bathroom was insane. It was seriously perfect and over the top. They had complimentary snacks and water. They had a stunning bar and restaurant in the lobby with a huge fireplace. The pool was dreamy. The hallways were huge, it was luxurious. It was one of the most luxury stays I've ever had. I cannot recommend this place enough. Walking distance to everything. Thank you for being so great!
