This hotel was lovely. The room was pristine and luxurious. We loved the location, enjoyed the pool, and had drinks at the rooftop restaurant. The only downside was that the restaurant was $$$ and had a very limited menu. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend it!

Stayed 1 night. Great location in downtown Visalia before early AM drive to Sequoia NP. Glad we chose Visalia over Fresno as our starting point. Hotel has great "character" and is in excellent condition. Many restaurants & shops within walking distance. Hotel has a rooftop restaurant with nice views, but we didn't eat there.

Would definitely return

Very clean and in excellent condition for age of the classic building. An oasis on a busy street. High ceilings and fitting retro decor. Wish I had gone up to roof top bar/restaurant. Walked around close downtown. Noisy plumbing expected with vi ntage site but I always bring ear plugs.
