Top Three Mile Beach Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn Santa Cruz North

8/10 Good

"As a whole, my stay was good without any problems. The young man working the evening shifts at the front desk "Angel" was awesome and helpful. I failed to request an accessible room when reserving online. The room we were given was said to be accessible. The doorways were wide, but no hand rail near toilet, in shower or anywhere else. No type of shower seat. Tile floor and cotton bath mat is a hazzard. Breakfast was good, grounds kept neat, friendly staff."

Beachview Inn

8/10 Good

"The television did not work properly. There was no phone connection. It was a dead phone. There is no security for the first floor window to be allowed to be open. The screen was broken. The floor of the room had a lot of dirt and sand on it The best thing was the shower. I was pleasantly surprised with great pressure and lots of hot water that was a plus. The walls are pretty thin because I can hear the person next to me snoring like he was in my bed pretty bad"

Ocean Pacific Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location & within walking distance to beach. Room was clean & spacious. Pool & spa was as near our room & was perfect to end the day. Check in was very quick & parking lot and was large enough that I was never worried if there would be enough spots left-unlike our stays @ other hotels in area."

Hampton Inn Santa Cruz West, CA

4/10 Poor

"Some how they were stingy with towels. Had to use my own. Next the shower advisement between hot and cold water was all messed up! Whoever installed it did something wrong and the daily crew who should have checked it on a daily basis should have bought that issue long time ago already! My desire to switch to a different room was denied; so we took showers that was weather too hot or cold!… Not impressed this visit at all with the conditions of the maintenance of the hotel but also not very impressed with the staff’s helpfulness. On top everything the room keys we were issued stoped working we noticed about 2 hours after we checked in. Normal we figured things happen! So went to the front where they were adjusted, let’s call it. Right after I went to my car to retrieve something. Tried both keys but couldn’t get the side door open! As if I have never used a key card before front desk assistant asked me if I used it correctly! And tried it at the door and told me it was the door that had an issue!… As I said, I don’t know what the administration, management or maintenance staff are getting paid for here! It sure looks like something is off! In the room; I never had to sleep on pillows as this! They were the same kind you will find in a cheap motel! Last time we were there we clearly remember being impressed by the comfort and quality of the pillows! It was very very disappointing for a Hilton chain to have reduced quality as they have raised their prices!"
