I was visiting Riverside, CA and touring this #1 attraction of Riverside. It has rich history and a lot stories to tell. The collection from world wide are amazing. The building itself designed mix of many architecture styles. The courtyard is beautiful. There is a chapel inside of the hotel and definitely wedding location top choice. I enjoyed my visit,

Living in Colton (nearby) we eat quite often at the Inn as a contractor it became our Sunday company place to relax with out of town associates. Lovely place with heaps of moments in time and history. A place not to miss when in Riverside. We brought the book and took the tour. With thanks Heather and Kerry

This historical property is very unusual and special. The docent tour is a must when staying there to learn of the history and see unusal things. The restaurant, Duane's, is an excellent steak house as is the wine bar in front of Duane's. the best time of year to stay there is during the Christmas holidays as the hotel is... More

I have stayed at the Mission Inn twice. Once in a suite on the top floor and just recently in a standard room. I have enjoyed both of my stays and really don't have any complaints. The Mission Inn is full of California history and you enjoy the experience more after learning about the property and those who previously owned... More

We had the time to spend here in December when all the Christmas lights were in their glory! A truly spectacular sight and to stay here made it even more enjoyable. The hotel oozes charm and whilst they have maintained the style of the hotel, the rooms were up to date and provided all the conveniences. Would recommend getting a... More

The hotel exceeded expectations from the time I pulled into the friendly and efficient valet with 5 minutes to go before my first meeting, to the time I was able to see my lovely room, to the help I was given at 6:30am the next morning with two copies of a page I needed made, to the ability to keep...

We just returned from a 5 day trip to CA during which we spent Friday and Saturday night at this hotel. We were visiting my daughter who works in the area and was running a race in Redlands over the weekend. We loved the character of the Mission Inn. The bed was sooooooo comfortable and cozy - once I got... More

This place is Heaven. The hotel itself is so charming, nothing like any other motel or cheap hotel ! The rooms are beautiful, very spacious, lot of light. We had a tea time in the lobby, it was a bit expensive (just like the whole place) but sooo worth it! The pool is clean, quiet, and the gardens ....Wow! It... More

Absolutely beautiful property. We were staying at another hotel in Riverside as part of a group, but visited here because of all the great reviews. The view in the courtyard restaurant was gorgeous! Had dinner at Las Campanas, Mexican cuisine (tableside guac, yum) in a beautiful outdoor garden setting.
