Top Downtown Hotel Reviews

Clarion Hotel By Humboldt Bay

8/10 Good

"Staff was friendly and informative. The breakfast offerings met our needs. Everything was clean and fresh."

The Snoozzz Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay!! Very nice young ladies checked us in quickly and made sure our room was comfortable for us. Very clean bathroom (after hiking all day we didn’t keep it that way 😞) and amazingly comfortable bed!! We slept like a dream. My husband is ticky and he said it was his favorite stay thus far. Highly recommend!"

Hotel Arcata

8/10 Good

"It was how you would consider a historic hotel to be. It was charming, but old. The plumbing didn't drain that well and there was some road noise from traffic on the street, but it was clean, super cute and walkable to everything in the downtown area. There was no hotel parking, but they give you a pass for street parking and we never had an issue finding parking close by. Would definitely stay there again if we were in the Arcata area."

Best Western Plus Humboldt Bay Inn

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at, and I've stayed at at least least 100 hotels. You can tell that the owner really cares, every little detail was noticed and appreciated. The oasis area was spectacular, the breakfast was wonderful, staff was fabulous! I wish all Best Western hotels were like this one in Eureka, I would never stay anywhere else!!!"
