4/10 Fair

poor customer service

Upon arrival was there at 2 and a lovely lady at the front desk was polite and attentive assisted getting parking and informed us the room was not quite ready and to return in an hour, did so and a gentleman when asked to check in an abrupt its not check in time, i informed him of what was communicated to me and still not 4 and when i returned there were several damp towels hanging from the bathroom and when approached the man he implied i lied about having the room with damp towels this was not a great experience.

Capitola Hotel is a ten.

In addition to the perfect location, this hotel was immaculate. Comfy sheets and towels, very friendly staff.

10/10 Exceptional

Enjoyed my stay at the Capitola Hotel. It's right across from the restaurants on the beach and within walking distance of everything we wanted to see and do in the beach area. The hotel has a nice outside seating area so we could relax outside in the shade between outings.

Great location. Seconds away from the beach. Can be a little noisy at times being so close to the action, but still worth it.

Oceanfront fun

Very nice clean little hotel in the center of town was a little noisy but that's expected when you stay directly across from the restaurants and bars that are Oceanfront

Hey Casper and hellos

The workers seemed very friendly always acknowledge us the only thing I didn’t like is the parking but that’s always Capitola parking….. I do think our room was haunted and yet I didn’t mind it too much. He just wanted to be acknowledged. Interested if anyone else had the feeling of that. But I do think maybe a smart tv would make it better for movies but we made due.

Wonderful anniversary stay

We had a wonderful time staying here for our 11 year anniversary. The staff reached out to ask if we wanted something extra for our anniversary. Thank you to the staff for the beautiful flowers and chocolates. Everything was in walking distance. The bed was super comfortable.
Jeanette, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Hotel is right across the street from Margaritaville in the Village. Close to the beach and restaurants. No fighting traffic and finding parking. Public bathrooms are few and far between. So, it is nice to go to your room instead of waiting in line.
Lewis, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lost a star because the air conditioner didn’t work. That made our overall experience less than stellar because a grunge band began around 10pm across the street until about midnight. I was forced to open all our windows and run the fans because of the lack of AC. I feel we wouldn’t have been bothered had we had the window closed. I had trouble hearing the television whenever the bar opened their doors. That being said I loved the outdoor seating area, the convenience of location and how clean it was and how sweet the staff was. They let us check in much earlier than 4pm and we parked in their garage for just $35. I’d come back.

The room was clean and comfortable. We were able to get checked in before check-in time. They were very accommodating with that. We've stayed here a few times before and will definitely stay again!

There is nothing bad I can say about this place. The place is cute, quaint and very comfortable. The staff are very welcoming and super friendly. We could literally walk out the front door and take 25 steps and be at the beach. absolutely amazing place. We will definitely be going there again.
Todd, 1-night trip

We visited Capitola for our 20th anniversary and this hotel is the perfect place. It is in the center of Capitola. Everything is walking distance. It’s a beautiful piece of property in the heart of Capitola. One of my favorite parts of this was in the evening, there’s a side patio garden with fire pits and comfortable chairs and we were able to sit out there and drink tea, drinks and hang out. It was a wonderful experience. The staff was everything though, the night and the day concierge were wonderful. Such friendly ladies, such kind ladies, so helpful they made our stay so extremely flawless. I will definitely stay at this property again
