Beautiful Grounds, Breakfast Buffet needs help

3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed May 31, 2019
Landscaping is gorgeous, well maintained, dinner was delicious, rooms need updating, decent value for the price, but Holiday Inn's have a better breakfast buffet. Our room was dated and needed the baseboards and corners cleaned of webs. Our bathroom fan was missing the face plate and was very noisy. The hot tub concrete was crumbling and missing large pieces. The dining room chairs need new cushions. The house wine is a pass. The dinner was delicious and wonderful service.

I traveled to Cambria for the first time in May 2019. I traveled up by train from San Diego, but had to Uber the last 30 minutes from San Luis Obisbo to Cambria. The train ride was wonderful! Cambria Pines Lodge was beautiful andand gardens were georgeous. I was there on a Thursday night and the soloist-12 string guitar player was worth spending the evening lustening to. There is a 257 step path theough a forrested area that is steep and not good for everyone to try, but it was a beautiful hike to the Village of Cambria. I walked the 3 miles to Moonstone Beach but you can also drive there. I spent a quiet afternoon walking the beach and visiting several arts and crafts galleries. I could have easily spent more time discovering the arts. I had a delightful day and wished I had planned more time to stay.

A quaint environment with beautiful gardens to walk through. We only ate breakfast here and it was not of a good standard. The fireside lounge was barely lit in the morning, which meant it wasn’t very inviting. Everything else was quite lovely.

This is our 4th time staying here. We love it and always look forward to coming back. We love the location and all the things you can do that are not too far away. The food in the restaurant is very good. And being able to relax in the lounge in the evening is a perfect way to end the day.
