Hotels in Eureka, CA

“The hotel is beautiful!! The room was spacious, the bed was very comfy. The staff was pleasant. It was fun to be there in a Friday night for the farmers market and after party at Phatsy Klines, but Saturday morning was so so so sad. I didn't realize that the rescue mission is a block away as is the vets center. The homeless situation was very distressing.”

“We had a wonderful experience staying at Carter House. We arrived really late but communicated with the staff and received specific instructions so that we could enter the Inn and our room. Exhausted, it was a wonderful surprise to see a room simple but elegantly decorated. There were quality amenities. The bathrob was so soft and comfortable. The water pressure was good and the shower head felt like the water was massaging my back. I loved having plenty of pillows on the bed. We slept very well each night. Our stay came with breakfast which was delicious and with appropriate portions. We saw the staff in the morning and they were friendly, kind, helpful and professional.(We were out fir the day and returned late.) I look forward to returning and encourage anyone wanting a wonderful experience to try Carter House Inn and Restaurant. (I kept forgetting to take before photos so the bed and bathroom are not as it was when we arrived.)”

“Exceeds expectations at this price point-- recently refurbished rooms are quality remodels and very clean; hot tub area and gym are nice; and has full time help at the desk. Road noise is fine despite proximity (we've never had a room right on the hwy). Breakfast includes fresh eggs, fruit, and waffle machine. Carpet cleaner smell in the room was a little intense(opening window for an hour is sufficient), but no other complaints. Quick walk to the historic eureka downtown for quaint shopping and bars. UPDATE: They are still working hard to provide the best motel experience in Eureka. +We used the limo this time to get to dinner, was great. -Our mattress had minor ruts (room 254).”

“My family and I enjoyed staying at this hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful with any questions we had. The pool was heated and was clean. The hot tub felt amazing after a long day. The complementary breakfast was delicious there was a wide variety of food. The location was in a good spot. This was a fantastic hotel. And we would stay here again.”

“We stayed for Three night in this Hotel in June 2026. One of the best Holiday Inn Express hotels we have stayed in. Rooms were modern, solid beds, clean hotel on the main Road national 101 road. Costco across the way for gas and others more things. A wall around the parking area adds security. Breakfast was one of the best and the same started at 6.00 AM in the morning. they have fresh brew coffee machines for perfect coffee. I would look no further for a stay in Eureka. Nice Hotel to stay when you are going to see the Redwood forest or Eureka city itself. Swimming Pool also in the Hotel for all age group.”

“I loved my experience at the Clarion hotel. It was definitely my favorite stay throughout my entire central coast trip. Lovely staff. Omar is one of a kind and really made my stay so peaceful. Thank you kindly !!”

“Room was nice , comfortable beds, shower/ bathtub was good. Also microwave and fridge, room phone. Coffee in their office during am hours. Only issue was that Wi-Fi doesn’t reach some of the rooms and a low toilet seat but overall not bad and price was reasonable”

“Eureka inn is a truly beautiful place. Built in 1922 and hosted many celebrities and politicians. The decor and furnishings in the hotel just makes you feel like you went back in time through some type of a portal.

We stayed there for a week and it was perfect for us as far as price and location to my brother’s house.

Lots of nice vintage shops near by and the BIG redwoods are about an hour north of Eureka.

Beautiful swimming pool, but close during our visit in February, burr a bit cold.

The hotel has a lot of sitting areas in the main lobby, set in different groupings.

They have a continental breakfast with good selection to choose from and open is from 6:30-9:30.

They don’t make the rooms up every day, but they will upon request, which is okay with me because I’m just going to jump right back into bed.

The hotel was very quiet, no late night drunk people talking loud and no kids running up and down the hallway.

Unfortunately the restaurant in the hotel has been closed since the Covid scare. Too bad it looked like it would have been great place to eat. Hopefully they can reopen it again.

Thanks to Rachel and Kayla. You were great hosts!”

“My wife, our four children, and our service animal recently stayed at the Red Lion Hotel in Eureka. I was very impressed with the spaciousness of the room, its cleanliness, and the complimentary breakfast bar, which was exactly what we needed before heading out for the day. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly yet safe place to bring your family, this is the place to go. A huge shoutout to Miss Connie, who went above and beyond to assist us with some questions we had after our check out. You definitely have our business when we visit again on our next adventure!!”

“Very nice people they are so awesome The rooms are very, very clean and nice and very well kept and always a valuable when you need them very loving family business owned”

“Very nice hotel. The person that helped us on 06/15 and 16th was super duper nice and very professional at his job. He was amazingly friendly! The room is clean and a good size. The water pressure is good in the shower too. The bed size is a little smaller than i imagined but still big and comfortable enough for two people. And right next to a Dutch Bros haha”
