Everything was great except that our room had a noisy heater so that made for a rough night of sleep. The room was spacious, easy parking, good access to great ocean views at the sister hotel. Would recommend.

Location! It was within walking distance of the shore, right off Highway 1. We were in the area for a family event, so it was a place to dress and sleep. The front desk let us into our room early to dress, which helped us. It is an affordable place to stay centrally located to Hearst Castle, the beach, and Cambria. We paid a little extra for a cot, which allowed my family of 5 to stay in one room.
Situated along the San Simeon Bay coast, Pacific Coast Roadhouse Hotel; SureStay Collection by Best Western is only 10 minutes' drive to Hearst Castle.

Very spacious, clean, and comfortable room. Staff was very friendly and kind, when we arrived our room was missing the microwave which I needed for my son's meals, and the staff kindly provided a new room, upgrading it to ocean view.

If you're into nature and the ocean, this is a great place to visit. There are numerous surfing spots. This city is also the home of the Hearst Castle, which holds significant historical values. You can also explore the sea wildlife by watching elephant seals.

San Simeon is a great spot for quiet relaxation.
San Simeon is a great spot for quiet relaxation. It's right by the ocean and has several restaurants. It's also just a few minutes drive to Cambria if you want to go for a nice walk on the Moonstone Beach walkway right by the ocean, and then another short drive to Cambria's cute little town.

The ocean was beautiful.
The ocean was beautiful. It was great seeing the elephant seals, and all their babies, lots and lots of babies everywhere. Every female seem to have a baby was happy to see the her castle from afar could not take my puppies, so I could not go on the tour. Next time I will go on the tour I will find a pet sitter.

San Simeon is just one of those cool places that are not over crowded by people and businesses. Different places to stop and explore along this part of the coastline. Besides having Hearst Castle, you can check out the elephant sea lions area and a lighthouse. Just south of San Simeon you have a quick drive over the Moonstone Beach and another 20 min south you have Morro Bay. I think it is a great place to stay when you don't want to be in one of the bigger beach towns, its a more down to earth place when you want to just be in one of the small cozy towns.

San Simeon state Beach is perfect for families.
San Simeon state Beach is perfect for families. It's not crowded like Pismo or windy like Avila. Perfect for families. Affordable restaurant options are limited for large families. None really unless you eat at the mini mart.
Pacific Coast is one of the few hotels that continues to provide a hot breakfast of eggs and bacon as well as yogurt, cereal, and pastries. The room has a microwave and refrigerator. I usually bring my own food so I appreciate that convenience. The bed is comfortable. The room has hardwood floors and is nicely decorated. Because this hotel is usually the lowest price when I am searching for places to stay thanks to booking.com VIP status, I have booked this hotel at least 5 times in 1.5 years.
The spacy rooms had a nice sitting area and terrace with a great sea view. The hotel is well located at a short driving distance to castle Hearst as well as the beaches to see the Sea Lions. A good location to start the CA 1 route south of the road blocks. The restaurant conveniently located at the same resort offer very good options for breakfast and dinner.
We enjoyed our recent stay in San Simeon, the accommodation was very good and met all of our needs. The onsite facilities including the restaurant were excellent. The location was ideal for our planned visit to Hearst castle. We spent two nights at the lodge and ate in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast, the food was very good and the service excellent.
beautiful. we never stay anywhere else when we come up to Cambria….and we’re stayed at almost all of the hotels in Cambria - we choose San Simeon and Cavalier now every time! beautiful view from the room. beautiful place to explore
As motels go, this was quite nice. Rooms were spacious and clean, and hotel is well back from the road, so not much traffic noise. In fact all the rooms face the sea. Wifi was also password protected.
Breakfast was great. Location is beautiful. Staff are so nice and friendly. This is one of my favorite spots for San simeon.. beach is across what more can you want. Very relaxing. Perfect!!!
Sweet staff and cute property in the greatest spot in San Simeon. Walk across the highway, to the beach, great restaurant next door and numerous others, also walking distance.
Overall the best location for price I've visited in San Simeon. Dogs welcome and some pretty nice recreation areas to spend time less than 50ft from the beach
