Blue Lantern Inn, A Four Sisters Inn

Blue Lantern Inn, A Four Sisters Inn

10/10 Excellent
"This property test on a bluff overlooking the ocean and the Dana point Harbor. The best views are from floors 2&3. Our stay on floor one had a very nice patio and was adjacent to the breakfast and happy hour venue. Very convenient for that early morning coffee. The location is very close to many restaurants. The free parking was refreshing since so many hotels in the area charge as much as $70 per night. The staff members were extremely hospitable and accommodating. We would definitely stay at this small, quaint hotel again."
