    Exceptional

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The staff was very accommodating. I came on the hottest weekend of the year. While I came a bit early for check in, they were able to check me in a bit early. My room was across the way over the Condesa restaurant, and the room was beautiful. It has a 50s/60s vintage feel with details of pink and floral everywhere. The room is fully stocked with beverages and snacks if you feel like snacking on something after walking around town. The Inn sits close to a lot of restaurants and is a short walk to the downtown area. I would definitely stay here again in the near future.

    Just loved the sweetness of our room and the property. Lovely outside sitting and inside. The breakfast and early cocktail hour the best. The staff were excellent and oh so nice and attentive. Please stay there just a little touch of heaven. Loved it all.

    We loved our stay at Petit Soleil! Everything from the beautifully appointed rooms to the coffee and breakfast in the morning and evening appetizers with wine we felt like we had been transported to Europe with the beautiful courtyards. The staff was phenomenal. Can’t wait to come back.

    Exceptional stay! We loved this spot! Great location walking distance to downtown. Everything was thoughtfully designed, rooms were very comfortable, breakfast & aperitif hour drinks and food were wonderful. Will definitely be back!

    The room was large, clean, and well appointed and equipped. We had booked a queen room with a sofa bed for 3 adults, and they upgraded us to a suite with a king and a sofa bed. Beautiful and most enjoyable. The king bed was *very* confortable. They have a very peaceful court with tables and the inside area has traits of a Parisian bistro. There, they offer a complimentary apéritif between 5pm and 6pm with a tasty snack to come along a beverage - recommended to start the evening. The included breakfast is top notch as well. Their croissants are so authentic; I never had croissants so tasty outside of France. The hotel is located about 10min walk from downtown and its Thursday market. It has a private parking (complimentary). The entire staff was professional and friendly at the same time. Recommended. From now on, this will be the place we aim to stay at when in San Luis Obispo.

    Great staff and great property. Had to change hotels because my son wanted a pool. Only inconvenience is that I wish they refunded my stay since I didn't stay the night. Would've been a great thing to do for a traveler with a family.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Little gem in the downtown of San Luis Obispo. We loved the room, amenities, happy hour and delicious breakfast. We will definitely be back.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Lovely stay in such a charming B&B

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It felt like we were somewhere in a small French country town. Nicely adorned rooms and great staff! That the savory breakfast ran out and there didn’t seem to be any coffee? The rest was great.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Room is uncomfortable, not worth the high price point

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The best hotel in San Luis Obispo! I make sure to stay at least one night every time I visit. The location is amazing, the rooms are beautiful and comfortable, and the staff is truly exceptional. One of the things I love most is seeing the same friendly faces year after year—they always make me feel so welcome. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Great little place and respite. But the staff truly stand out. For a small boutique hotel, top notch.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Lovely comfortable room. Comfy king bed, spacious room and large bathroom. Included breakfast was delicious with something for everyone, granola with fresh fruit and yogurt was my choice - my husband went for the pancakes which he loved. Walking distance to downtown takes about 15 minutes. Noise from construction project across the street could be annoying if you face the street and want to sleep in past 8. I would definitely stay here again the next time I need to stay in SLO. Great low key small boutique vibe, nice change from more corporate choices.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The location we close to downtown making everything walkable. The breakfast and evening appetizers were nicely served and were quite nice. We'll be back to this one. No complaints at all. I liked it better than the other places we've stayed in SLO.

    Great place loved the bunk beds for the kids.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Loved the decoration of the rooms, the friendly welcome and overall kindness of the staff. Good breakfast selections and free parking. Good location too, walking distance to downtown.
