Top Pismo Beach Pier Hotel Reviews

Beach House Inn & Suites

Beach House Inn & Suites

8/10 Good
"We loved the rooms (they were like apartments) - Full size appliances, dishes, coffee maker, separate living room - very comfortable and cheerful beach decorations. The private balcony was awesome. We sat on the balcony and watched the sunset which we loved. This property is right by the entrance to the beach so we walked to the beach. There was a parking garage under the property which was great because this hotel is in the middle of an extremely busy area. There was no ice machine which is really the only thing we can complain about. I would definitely stay here again."

"We had a great, quiet few days in Pismo—less than a five-minute walk to downtown! Check-in was smooth, and the front desk staff was very polite. ​The room and pool were clean, and all appliances (fridge, microwave, AC, fan) worked perfectly. A few minor callouts: the parking lot is quite tight, the toilet seats could use an upgrade, and there were a few minor cosmetic patches on the walls. ​Overall, it was clean, comfortable, and met our expectations!"

8/10 Good
"The hotel could use some refreshing. Our room was very small. The closet was so small and narrow that a small travel suitcase couldn’t fit in it. We had to put in on a stand in the entryway, which was awkward. The room and bathroom were clean, but the bathroom had no fan and only four hooks under shelf above the toilet to hang towels or anything on. The door faced the entry door a few feet away which faced another room’s entry door a few feet away, so one had to be careful! We paid extra for a partial sea view which was just a glimpse through lower buildings, but mostly a view of the roof and parking lot. On the whole, it wasn’t a relaxing space to hang out, but fine as a “home base.” Since it was the off season and the hotel was not remotely full, it would have been nice to be offered a better room. The hotel did send us many messages via Expedia to upgrade (at a cost) but the links all had “upselling” written into them, so I never even clicked on them. Also, you have to pay for parking - $12 a night. It wasn’t a bad stay, but we would not stay there again."
