Anderson Inn

Jul 22, 2008

We stayed at the Anderson Inn for 3 nights as part of our honeymoon and we loved it. We had a room on the front of the hotel over the water with a stunning view of El Moro rock. Fabulous sunsets. We would highly recommend one of these rooms if the budget can stretch. Molly and family are really friendly, this really is a family run place.
Morro bay is a quaint small village with some nice restaurants. We ate in the Anderson Inn Galley restaurant and the food was very good. Highly recommend it, as well as Windows on the Water where the views are stunning.

Our only downside was the power station on the bay that we did not know was there before arriving. Whilst you can't miss it after a while it did not bother us. However the sooner they move it the better!

Overall a great experience and a much enjoyed stop on our honeymoon.

We had reserved elsewhere but after reading about the Anderson Inn on Trip Advisor we changed our reservation. Brilliant idea!

The hotel is a haven, the right place to stop if you are traveling along the coast.

It's family run and the proprietors attend personally to the smallest details. It's brand new, super clean, room was very spacious with plasma tv and a gorgeous bathroom with multiple jet shower: to cut a long story short: paradise after a long drive or a day at the beach.

Nice additional touch is the private hotel parking.

Owners are nice and helpful and the Galley restaurant was really good, would have loved to go there to have breakfast as well.

Beautiful hotel in a fabulous location on the bay with views of the rock. The owner Jeff is lovely and very helpful and you must eat at the The Galley.

“The Anderson Inn was AWESOME”

Found this hotel on Tripadvisor and then booked with the hotel directly. What a GEM this hotel was. There are only 8 rooms that are located above a restaurant located right on the waterfront in Morro Bay overlooking Morro Rock. The owners Jeff & Molly are the best hosts. There were 6 of us driving the California coast - Parents and 2 teens. Only stayed 1 night, but regreted not being able to stay for more. The rooms are absolutely AWESOME. Very roomy & modern. Flat screen TV, internet and comfortable beds. The sheets and fluffy pillows were great. The bathroom was huge and had a shower with glass doors and 3 shower heads. We were very spoiled by how great everything was. Still cannot believe how CLEAN the room was. The Galley restaurant below was so good. Jeff helped us make our reservations for dinner that night and we had a table for 6 right next to the window and watched the beautiful sunset over Morro Rock. I was so lucky to have found this hotel!!

“Simply FABULOUS!”

Anderson Inn

Jun 13, 2008

Immaculate room (2 Queen beds) with excellent hospitality! Plush, super-comfy beds; soft Egyptian cotton bath towels + bath robes; bright, airy rooms.

Based on recommendation of "Molly" (co-owner of Anderson Inn) had dinner at The Galley restaurant next door on Thursday night. Reserved table from Inn and was seated within 10 minutes (or less) despite the restaurant being fully booked that night. Ordered local sand dabs and pan-seared scallops--truly superb and fresh seafood...both sand dabs and scallops were extremely succulent and "melt-in-your-mouth" consistency. Excellent service and stunning sunset view during dinner.

Would definitely return and highly recommend to others!
