Skip the chains, enjoy the style.

We thoroughly enjoyed this hotel. San Luis Obispo has a vibrant downtown and the Granada Hotel is right in the middle of it. Every aspect is gorgeously designed. The room was smaller than a chain hotel's but far more delightful. The several public areas were also inviting and relaxing. Staff were helpful and classy. A real pleasure.

For the young at heart.

The hotel is very nice, old building being renovated. Our room was very small. The bed was not what we are used to, so sleeping was difficult. If we were younger we would have enjoyed it more being older comfortable sleep is everything.
