the place definitely has character and is unique - you really feel like you are in a historic building - the rooms are clean, location is perfect - they didnt modernize it all up so it feels very real which i think is cool and price is reasonable

I really like the European style rooms. It was nice to have the bay view room too while the Mendocino music fest was happening. I probably wouldn’t have enjoyed my stay as much if I wasn’t facing the water, so thanks for that. Would come back.

Property is an old Victorian era hotel. It is very good condition for it's age but it is in need of some TLC. As I understand it, the place will be closed soon for an extensive renovation. I surely hope that the Victorian charm and furnishings (as well as the stained glass on display throughout) are to return post reno. The staff was very accommodating and gave excellent service as well as suggestions for dining.

The Mendocino Hotel used to be outstanding. Great restaurant, quant rooms. Restaurant and bar are closed now. Lobby was dark and uninviting.. We waited 10 minutes for a staff person to check us in. The room was shabby-holes in the wall, frayed lampshade. Flimsy blanket. It needs a major facelist. Don't go. At $240 a night it was a total rip-off.

Great old hotel that's rough around the edges but that a small bit of renovation would't fix. Heard that a reno is in the works so hopefully won't destroy the old-time ambience. So don't expect a banal Wyndham experience, instead a throwback in time.

The property is gorgeous, but the bed felt like I was sleeping on a piece of lumber. My daughter's bed was equally "firm" with the added feature of a permanent indentation in the center that she could not escape.

Excellent location with easy access to beach, Headlands State Park coastal bluff trail and the vibrant downtown shops, restaurants and bars. But the hotel itself needs attention. Our garden suite was large and had a newly-renovated bathroom, but the bathroom counter was cracked and we had an ant problem. The bed was comfortable but stark - a sheeted mattress over exposed box springs. Our antique light fixture had burned out lights and the room smelled a little musty. No breakfast option (the hotel restaurant and bar look amazing but closed for Covid and have not reopened). The hotel charges a premium rate and we had hoped for more. We will not return.

After booking my room, and apparently not reading the details close enough, I come to discover that the English rooms are a bit different than normal. They have a shared bathroom in the hallway, meaning anyone who has an English room will be using the same toilet and shower in the hall. A very fun little surprise! There are multiple bathrooms, and even on a busy night, there was not once that the bathroom was occupied when I had to use it. They were also very clean and I felt very safe and comfortable using the shared bathroom, even though I was unsure at first. And yes, it is a private bathroom, very similar to one you’d have in your own home. The rooms were small, with no tv or any amenities other than a sink and small closet, but for a night or two that’s all you really need. However the door to the room that we had did not lock. There are plenty of restaurants, bars, and novelty stores within walking distance from the hotel, however I wish that there was a convenience store of some sort, because the closest one is a 20 minute drive. Other than that, it was lovely and such a fun & unique experience for such a great price, with a beautiful view outlooking the ocean. You definitely should try this place!!
