I had read several negative reviews of this hotel, so my expectations were moderate. My wife and I were there for a wedding and this was the hotel set up for guests by the bride. It was expensive but it was priced comparable to other hotels in the area. Truth is that hotels are expensive in the area, so I did not feel ripped off.

Overall, this hotel is great. We had a room on the bottom floor (not ever my preference, but the hotel was full). I heard NO noise from upstairs or from outside (and we were facing the main street). The rooms are quite modern and the beds were comfortable. Free tea and coffee in the lobby and the hotel is about 2 minutes walking to the local mission.

Overall, its a great hotel, a little pricey but that's to be expected for the time (weekend) and the City (Solvang).

I would stay there again.

We occasionally go to the Chumash Casino in Santa Ynez and stay in their hotel. However, it is being renovated, so we were booked at Corque in Solvang. Initially we were disappointed as it would be inconvenient to have to drive back and forth to Santa Ynez and also because boutique hotels are usually not our first choice.

However, we were pleasantly surprised. The lobby is bright and open and very attractive. Check in was friendly and efficient. Our room was quite attractive and pleasant with a very roomy patio with an attractive view of the landscaped grounds. Coffee was available 24/7 in the lobby. And parking was very convenient, a big improvement over the very inconvenient monster garage at Chumash. Our stay was so positive that we are considering staying there in the future despite the inconvenience of having to drive back and forth to the casino. It was also very quiet, and despite the fact that our room was on the first floor, we heard no noise from the rooms above.

Corque Hotel is located right in the charming town of Solvang. Walking distance from all the shops, restaurants, wine tasting, Danish bakery goodies and 'much, much more' as the saying goes. The staff is very accomodating and professional which sets a nice tone from the beginning. The decor is subdued and comfortable with a bit of the luxurious. Our room was in blond & beige with dark wood furniture, soft white duvet covers and the crispiest sheets ever! It was delicious to snuggle into our beds after a nice dinner/wine tasting. Awakened to gorgeous sunshine glimmering on the pool outside and a lovely view of the green trees and rolling hills. We got a coupon for a wonderful brunch at the gourmet restaurant right next door too. This has to be one of the best , most convenient stays in the area. The Hotel Corque is a world of difference from the hotel that was on this site previously. A good example of a makeover done right. Bravo.

This stay was most enjoyable, ideally located close to the Chumash Casino, and wineries and of course it's location in lovely Solvang made it even that much better! Would definitely stay there again I highly recommend this hotel!
