Frommer's Review

Right across the street from, and somewhat in the (figurative) shadow of, the Hotel Del, this pretty white hotel consists of the charmingly historic John D. Spreckels mansion (1908) and several younger, motel-style buildings. Only 11 rooms are in the mansion, which boasts original fixtures, a grand staircase, and old-fashioned wicker furniture; the guest rooms are also decked out in antiques and have a romantic and nostalgic ambience. Rooms and suites in the 1950s annexes are much less expensive but were upgraded from motel-plain to better match the main house's classy vibe (though lacking the mansion's superluxe featherbeds); some have kitchenettes and marina views. The least expensive units are small and have parking-lot views. Wherever your room is, you'll enjoy the inn's excellent customer service. In addition to offering bikes and boat rentals on Glorietta Bay across the street, the hotel is within easy walking distance of the beach, golf, tennis, watersports, shopping, and dining. Rooms in the mansion are booked early, but are worth the extra effort and expense.

Facilities:
Outdoor pool; Jacuzzi; in-room massage; babysitting; coin-op laundry and laundry service; dry cleaning
