Hotels in Tehachapi, CA

“We got this stay as a gift and honestly did not have high expectations for the resort or California in general. Upon arrival into Tehachapi (flew into Vegas and drove from there rather than LAX), we visited a few establishments in town and felt very "at home" with the people as well as the businesses. A 20 minute drive from town brought us to the resort, but the route the GPS took us on was VERY curvy and made my fiance nauseous more than once. Local traffic was obviously more comfortable with the road and was driving double the speed limit, which can be a bit nerve-racking being the butthead driving too slow but we found a different route after a couple days. The condo was dated, but nice and clean and had all the amenities we wanted and the staff was incredibly friendly. The hot tub was perfect and clean, we got to enjoy it by ourselves as we visited in May when it wasn't very busy. We had dinner at Jake's Steakhouse in town our first night, which was excellent and the price was more than fair. Had some drinks and food at P-Dub's right near the resort one night as well and everything was amazing, including the staff. There are several wineries right near the resort which was a great way to spend an afternoon. Triassic, Dorner, and Tehachapi Wine & Cattle all had great selections of wine with very friendly staff and nice/clean grounds. Wine and Cattle had fantastic live entertainment and great food as well. Tehachapi Winery was a nice place, but the wine and entertainment were both awful. We took a day trip to Sequoia National Park one day which was very entertaining (though a considerable amount of hiking), and stopped at the Tehachapi Loop on the way back which was awesome to see, despite neither of us being into trains. We stopped at Kohnen's Bakery in Tehachapi one day as well and picked up some raspberry cheesecake. I'm a cheesecake connoisseur of sorts, and this stuff is the real deal. It weighed 4x that of a regular cheesecake so the density was out of this world, but it was easily the best cheesecake I've ever had in my life.”

“Andrea at the front desk was a doll. I was having an awful stay at a hotel next door. She sincerely understood my pain and worked to make my stay 100 times better than expected. I wound up remaining an extra day! Lesson learned: don’t stray from the Marriott family. You know what to expect and they deliver!”

“Convenient place to stop when driving to easten sierra, the desert and Las Vegas. Clean rooms. Pool. The breakfast is decidely mediocre but it's free and it's edible.

Update 2026/02/11: rooms still clean and comfortable, indeed with good pillows. However the heater and AC unit was very noisy. Turning it off seem to affect minimally the room temperature. So easy solution.”

“We've stayed at both Best Western and Surestay, and we've always appreciated the service. You can pay less for still excellent stay at Surestay. Or pay more for higher leveled rooms at Best Western. Professional. Thank you Best Western. Again, Michael, who apparently works at both locations, we appreciate his professional work ethics. Thank you Best Western.”

“Everything about the comfort of the room was good! The flooring is vinyl and absolutely disgusting! I had my shoes off before hopping into bed and in the morning before showering. My feet were black, not just dirty but BLACK!!! 🤢🤮”

“Great for an overnight stay on a roadtrip with electric vehicle. Lot's of EV chargers right outside of the hotel. Also adjustent to several restaurants. Room was clean, bed comfortable, though not the king size we reserved. I liked the hardwood floors instead of carpet. Close to railroad tracks with trains running 24/7...bring earplugs or love for trains.”
