My husband and I stayed at an Ocean View room at the Best Western Cavalier Oceanfront Resort over July 4th weekend while visiting Hearst Castle, Big Sur, and Monterey. The hotel is conveniently located along HWY-1 about 5-minute drive south of Hearst Castle. Pros: 1. 5-minute drive from Hearst Castle 2. Unlike some hotels on the other side of HWY-1,... more

Let me first say that there is really nothing in San Simeon and that may be the reason for some of the comments about this hotel. The hotel is a very adequate place to stay. If you are looking for a place to stay so you can go to Hearst Castle the next day, this place is more than adequate.... more

We weren't expecting anything great from a Best Western, but we were more than pleasantly surprised by this charming seaside hotel. It was quiet, clean, comfortable, and filled with guests who visit their regularly because they like the place and the location so much. That speaks volumes for how nice the place is to relax and just enjoy. The thing... more

This is a great hotel for visiting the Hearst Castle. It has nice size rooms and my disabled mother was given a great room with an ocean front view and a good bathroom. Great amenities, the best we had the whole week in CA. However, there is no air conditioning! Be warned. While it was not hot when we visited,... more

Stayed here on CA trip-would STAY HERE AGAIN! Had an ocean view, binoculars included in room, to watch whales; what luck; 3-4, humpback whales, mom and babes, going north. Nature at its best----such a sight to see!!! (not all rooms have the ocean view...just ask if any are available-but its a short walk to the beach, more seating there) Great... more

Spent 2 days here while visiting Hearst Castle and Cambria. Had one of the ocean view rooms which is a mini suite. The room was pretty spacious with nice beds, mini bar and binoculars for viewing the sea life. The balcony was a pleasant place to watch the action. The rooms have a presto log burning fireplace which makes it... more

This hotel is handy to Hearst Castle. Beachfront location with good sized rooms. Room prices vary depending which type you choose. Shower over bath, iron and board in room, some rooms with fireplace (room 126 at the end of the block was great with ocean views and king bed and fireplace). Inhouse restaurant had good priced meals and delicious sized... more
