The Darling Hotel

SUPER cute and adorable place to stay. Very clean and fresh and beds were soft and comfortable. And, it just so happened to be our 22nd anniversary when we were coming through town and needed a place to stay. The rooftop restaurant was amazing and all staff were GREAT! Stay in room 428, it’s right next to the staircase that goes up to the restaurant and bar. The front desk gal was super sweet and helpful. Highly recommend this place!!!

Was a good experience nice hotel

Love the place.

Bed and bathroom are really comfortable. And also parking.

Great Stay!

The downfalls encountered that others should be aware of was the hotel had no automatic doors which made maneuvering the luggage cart with multiple bags very challenging. Then there was the need to take two elevators to reach our room, which was not ideal. Even from the 4th floor, I heard street noise at night as well as loud mechanical noises. I would recommend bringing earplugs and requesting a room away from the street, elevators, and restaurant.

Clean love ❤️ it

Highly recommended stay.

Exceptional

Staff was awesome, Restaurant great food and great service

The restaurant rooftop Elderwood, was absolutely delicious and the perfect ambiance. I can’t rave enough!

Front desk. Clerk was amazing. Room was clean. Bar was closed and the parking situation could be a lot better.

Great staff, great hotel and amazing location. The building and rooms are beautiful. If you ever pass by Visalia, this is the place to stay!

If you're in Visalia have to stay at the Darling

The Hotel is unique. Everyone floor is a little different and the rooftop bar/restaurant is a must try! Perfect for couples

Loved the old world charm and decor. Good location, right downtown. The bed was super comfy and the bathroom was quite roomy.

I want to give a shout out to the man working the front desk after 11:00 PM on July 22. I was exhausted and didn’t catch his name. He was so kind and helpful. If you arrive late the doors to the lobby will be locked for guest safety. He let us in right away though. He explained the options for parking, which was not fully explained to us earlier in the day. There is a free lot across the street and a paid gated lot that costs $20. We opted for the free lot and our car was fine overnight. There is a nice restaurant upstairs that has a view of the downtown. It closes at 9:30 PM and opens around 7:00 AM. The room was comfortable and had amazing water pressure. This was great after walking around Sequoia National Park. I also loved the complementary water and snacks in the room. I would stay here again.

The Darling is a one-of-a-kind hotel retrofitted in a 1930's art deco former county courts building. The ceilings are very high and the bathrooms are very large. The beds were quite comfortable. The staff were courteous and friendly. The food at The Elderwood roof-top restaurant was excellent.

Would absolutely stay here again if in the area. The hotel is beautiful, staff were so friendly and the pool was great for a hot day! Loved the rooftop restaurant!

Staff was nice, helpful
