Top Frontier Ranch Hotel Reviews

Quality Inn & Suites, Santa Cruz Mountains

4/10 Poor

"We didn't receive room service, bathroom smelled like mold and it was visible on door, bed smelled like cigarette smoke, other than that the man was very friendly and gave us extra towels, location is close to roaring camp train."

Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"Comfy hotel for a family trip. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub, both heated and open until 10pm. The lobby also had comfortable places to chill and play games. The room was pretty comfy, but the AC unit could have been more modern. It was hard to keep the room the temp we wanted. We also would have liked an easy way to get hot water on demand for tea and making baby bottles. We had to ask the bar for hot water instead. Overall, we enjoyed this hotel and would come back again."

Dream Inn Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Staying at the Dream Inn was a dream. My room was on the second floor with a phenomenal beach view overlooking the ocean, wharf, and boardwalk. Woke up each morning to the sound of crashing waves on the shore. Everything is in walking distance. Parking is available in a designated lot across the street that can be accessed with your room key. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The only minor negative is that the walls are a bit thin and my room was right by the elevators, so you could hear the occasional noise and chatter. But overall it was a great experience and will definitely stay at the Dream Inn on my next trip to Santa Cruz!"

The Historic Brookdale Lodge, Santa Cruz Mountains

6/10 Okay

"The room was clean but the AC wouldn’t stay on. The walls are also pretty thin. The lounge plays live music and the staff could get pretty loud at night too. There were random people pulling up at all hours of the night and chatting loudly with the staff. The roads at the hotel are BAD. Multiple giant potholes you have to try to navigate around while entering and exiting the property. Staff was very friendly. The diner on site has good ratings but the food was just okay and took a very long time to come out. Again, the staff were wonderful and very kind. There’s NO service in this area at all but the hotel wifi worked great! Overall, the hotel is just okay. It’s a clean place to sleep!"

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Santa Cruz by IHG

2/10 Terrible

"The hotel is described as family friendly on hotels.com. It says they provide cribs/pack n play (for a sur charge) This is a blatant lie from management. They literally don’t have any cribs/packNplays and no one to help set them up. Why advertise it then!! I had to go to target n buy a pack n play for my kid on the Long weekend vacation. We found out at checkin time !! Once again, why advertise it !! Ruining ppl’s vacation plans. It’s not even a cheap place, 500+ per night"

Comfort Inn Santa Cruz North

8/10 Good

"Staff was nice but not overly friendly. Perks for this place was it was conveniently located right by the freeway which was nice and breakfast was provided. Rooms are small and tight but beds were comfy. Our room was loud (it overlooked the pool) because people were in the pool past hours and in before it opened."
