Best of San Simeon

Staying at Cavalier is always an excellent experience… It is a bit pricey, but the view from the Kings row rooms is fantastic. The rooms are starting to show a little wear with peeling wallpaper here and there sink faucets out of adjustment, etc. but these are all very minor things. Overall, we lovecavalier!

Our room and view was great, although the carpet was very dirty. Should be cleaned or replaced. The couch in the room had a huge rip in it & very outdated. The restaurant was ok. Not much of a bar friendly staff though they were great. For being pet friendly they should offer something for pets at the restaurant as well and possibly something in the room for our fur baby.
