The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Wow! My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary recently...it was such a romantic experience coming here! Such a beautiful historic hotel. Booking was easy and once we got there to check in, customer service was phenomenal, thank you Aaron! Coming here felt like we were in a Spanish hacienda! Our room was very spacious and very clean! Room service was also amazing! You don't even need to leave the hotel, there's restaurants in walking distance as well as inside the hotel. The hotel has a couple bars and it's very lively at night! We had a wonderful time here! Everyone was so nice and welcoming! I almost forgot, the valet was also very nice! Definitely worth staying here and we will be back for the Festival of Lights!"
