Loved this place!! One of our favorite hotels we’ve ever stayed in. The furniture and decor is all super cute. Rooms were very spacious and clean and we loved having a separate living room area and kitchen. We appreciated the free snacks in the room and the fancy shampoo/conditioner. We’ll definitely be coming back this summer for another weekend getaway!

The Pismo Beach Club was a surprise bright spot for accommodations on the CA central coast. The rooms were cheery and clean and had a fun retro vibe throughout the hotel. We found it well appointed in terms of kitchen utensils and bath room necessities. Very easy to use electronic check-in and helpful assistance on line when needed. Right in the center of downtown Pismo with bowling alley, restaurants, great coffee shop, , convenience stores and beach all nearby… as well as the best cinnamon roll bakery ever just a block away!

Such a beautiful renovation! The hotel is spectacular. Easy to find and convenient for walking around cute Pismo. Our room had the most epic view of the ocean! The thoughtful design of the entire space, public and private, is exceptional. We've stayed at a lot of places in Pismo and up and down the coast and I think we've found our favorite place to get away! No Notes!

Really cute building and rooms, me and my mom stayed for my 22nd second birthday. And we loved it for the most part except the fire alarm going off at 4:30 am and the fire department not getting there for almost 20 minutes. I would definitely stay there again just hoping for a better experience. Front desk picked up promptly every time we reached out and helped fix anything we needed. Close to the pier and everything. They do charge $30 for parking which we didn’t see anywhere on the website or while booking, it is optional though!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE! We had an amazing stay at Pismo Beach Hotel! We booked the studio room, and it exceeded our expectations. The accommodations were beautiful and newly renovated , everything was spotless and thoughtfully designed. The room came with a fully stocked kitchen, coffee, tea, and even a full-size fridge with a freezer, which made our stay extra comfortable. The staff were incredibly responsive ,we could reach them anytime through a 24-hour chat right from our phones, which was super convenient. The lobby was gorgeous, parking was onsite, well-lit, and monitored (worth the small fee). The location couldn’t be better , just steps away from the beach and surrounded by great restaurants. We can’t wait to come back!

Everything was amazing - location, accommodation quality & service. Chris & Jaime were very helpful and let us keep our luggage in the desk room after we checked out while we walked around the town waiting for our flight. I also had help getting last minute early check in! The suite was beautiful and exactly like the picture & everything was walking distance! Literally perfect in every way. I’ll definitely be coming back

We had a great stay at Pismo Beach Club. The location is excellent—just a quick walk to everything in town, which made getting around super easy. Parking was adequate, and the staff was accommodating with good communication throughout our stay. The room itself was nice and well decorated. While it wasn’t quite big enough for our family of three, it would definitely work well for couples or solo travelers. The place was clean, and although it’s a 100-year-old building, that’s part of its charm and character. Overall, it was a great value for the price and a perfect spot for a night or two.

It’s a wonderful building, our room was on the second floor, everything very well thought out, parking was easy. Unfortunately we stayed Memorial Day weekend, nothing but families with little kids, (crying), or 20 somethings partying all night. The building is over one hundred years old, you can hear all conversations and sadly bathroom issues. Bottom line, great place to stay unless you want to sleep…
