Spent the weekend at the Inn. The place is quaint, but in need of cleaning and updating. The carpet in the room and throughout the property is dirty, quite surprising for a 4-star property. The furnishings in the room were average and the bathroom tiles were worn and in need of update. The pool had dead bees floating in it... more

Just returned from a 3 day mid-week spa/wine tasting stay at the Fess Parker Inn in Los olivos. The inn was charming, loved our room, with it's 4 poster bed and over sized bathtub, not to mention the cookies left when the bed was turned down for the night. Spring is a great time to tour the area and go... more

I'm afraid the Fess Parker Wine Country Inn has seen better days. My wife and I used to stay there a few years ago, but hadn't been there for a while. Our room (22) was in the annex across the street...spacious and bland. It was badly in need of work: all of the wood furniture was very beaten up, the... more

Having lived in the Los Angeles area for 15 years, we have made many day trips to the wine country of the Santa Ynez Valley, and have always enjoyed ourselves. Recently, my wife and I spent a weekend in wine country and stayed at the Fess Parker Wine Country Inn. We love the location in Los Olivos as it gives... more

We stayed here with one of my wife's friends from Florida who travels a great deal, and has champagne tastes when it comes to her accomodations. This hotel suited her quite well. The desk service is quite good, the rooms are very nicely done and appointed, and you couldn't ask for better convenience. Parking was a snap as we pulled... more

My wife and I stayed at Inn for three days and had a wonderful stay. Hotel is laid back and staff is well trained to do everything they could to make your stay a memorable one. Room was large and comfortable; great bathroom set-up. Restaurant in morning not fast, but not an issue. Dinner was very good. Inn was never... more

We dined at Restaurant Marcella last week. The restaurant is part of the Fess Parker Wine Country Inn and Spa. It was fabulous! Our meals and apps were perfectly prepared and excellent! The wine list is huge! It offers a nice balance of local wines with quite a few international selections as well. We couldn't believe that the restaurant wasn't... more

Don't be fooled by the rating--it's the only hotel in town. We phoned ahead by four hours and booked a room for one night at the Fess Parker Wine Country Inn. The rate was $270, but we thought it would be worth it to stay in what sounded like such a lovely place. We arrived late at 9:30 P.M. We... more

My wife and I planned what we thought would be a delightful dinner with some friends from Santa Maria at the restaurant in the Fess Parker Inn. Unfortunately, the evening was not anything like the great dinner we had the previous evening at Mattei's. In short, the service was pathetic and the food mediocre. The waiters were inattentive: we had... more
