Hill House Inn 10701 Palette Drive, Mendocino, CA 95460

"This place has so much potential. It's too bad they don't fix things up and make it look more presentable. The rooms with the fireplace are a joke. Heat doesn't radiate off of them and they are absolutely tiny."

"My partner and I have stayed here three Augusts in a row for a standing Mendocino family reunion. The rooms are always clean, service is consistent and reliable, and the location can't be beat. Although there aren't a lot of amenities, I always come back here for the consistent rooms, helpful staff, and for being the most affordable option close to the downtown area. After our most recent trip, the Inn's staff went above and beyond to return to me an item I left behind in the room which I greatly appreciated. I would recommend staying here."

"My husband booked this hotel. It's very dated around the 60-70's. The innkeeper could not get us into our room with an actual key. After trying another room, they booked us into a suite. Window was dirty and you could barely see the ocean. Bathroom was a nice size and shower had good pressure. Very close to Hwy one, so you get traffic noise. No breakfast, but they had coffee. Glad only a couple of days and only spent a little time in room. It seems like Mendocino partly died after Covid. Business closed by 5pm. Good thing the resterraunts are still there."

"Loved the ambiance of Hill House. Very charming and quaint. Staff at front desk was so friendly and welcoming. Room was clean and bed comfy, though pillows were a bit stiff. Had a first floor ocean view with a sliding door and porch which was lovely to sit on during sunset."

"Being fans of Angela Lansbury and "murder, she wrote", we were excited to stay at Hill House. Most of my daughter's wedding party was staying there. Checking in on Friday was easy. Sylvia was friendly, helpful and informative. We loved our vintage, comfortable, spacious room 109 with the garden view. The negatives were we could not get the TV to work properly, there was no mini fridge and the low to the floor toilet situation in the bathroom was almost unbearable. My 86 y.o. mother had a difficult time trying to maneuver in the toilet/tub area. We wished there could have been a Continental breakfast in the lobby to go with the delicious coffee they had available. Also. it would have been a huge plus if the restaurant upstairs was open. You had to trek into town if you wanted food. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and the wedding was fabulous!"
