West Cliff Inn, A Four Sisters Inn

Absolutely beautiful! Relaxing, great location and wonderful staff!! Definitely want to go back!

We had a wonderful stay during our one night in Santa Cruz at the West Cliff Inn. The grounds are beautiful, with pink roses growing in the front lawn. The house itself is beautiful, tastefully decorated, and renovated, maintaining an old house feel but with modern elegance. After hiking in the redwood forest all day, we enjoyed checking in and being welcome with wine, cheese, and fruit. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and we were given a free upgrade from the room we reserved to the one we stayed in. A few minor comments: we had originally reserved the cottage, which we were under the impression might be across a garden or something independent from the main building. In actuality (we didn't go inside, but trust that it is beautiful), the cottage appears to be old servant quarters, and is located across the parking lot, which some people may not like so just something to consider. Additionally, the view from the front porch does not offer the wide beach view as some of the images might make it seem. There is a short hotel located directly across from the inn, which blocks some of the view, however you are walking distance to the boardwalk and strip with beautiful views of the water, seals, cliffs, shops, etc. The location is wonderful! just wanted to include these two details which were not extremely transparent to me before reserving. However, we were extremely happy with our stay and will definitely be returning during our next day-cation :)

I would recommend this B&B to anyone looking for a place to stay in the Monterey Bay area. Great views.

When we went on the internet to look for a place to stay while attending a wedding in Santa Cruz CA, we had just a couple of must. Must be near the boardwalk (so we could walk to the dinner for the happy couple the night before the wedding), and that it be a nice stay for us. The West Cliff Inn was a wonderful treat ! The service was exceptional. The morning breakfast both mornings was outstanding and delicious. The room had a great view and was very comfortable and lovely. All together the weekend was wonderful. Thank you. Ann and Dave

The West Cliff Inn is an absolutely lovely place with an outstanding location and impeccable service. My only complaint was that our room ceiling began leaking both nights of our stay, and although the staff was very accommodating to us, they were not able to do anything until the following mornings, so both nights we had to sleep to dripping sounds. Other than that, the rooms are gorgeous and the breakfast and wine reception were fantastic!

My 8 year-old daughter and I stayed one night at the lovely West Cliff Inn. This beautifully refurbished Victorian was elegant, comfortable and had great views, but the real beauty of the place was in the kindness of the staff. The lovely front desk person not only allowed me to keep my vehicle parked in the lot after check-out (may not always happen, this was off-season), but when I found that my car wouldn't start when we returned after a busy day, called AAA for me, put out the afternoon snacks early and allowed my daughter and I to relax in the lobby while waiting for service. She made a potentially stressful situation into another nice part of our trip! :-)

My husband and I had an amazing time, the customer service was beyond our expectations! They called ahead to our resturaunt and we received a complimentary appetizer from the chef. We felt so lucky! Definitely Would stay there again, in a heartbeat.

This is a wonderful place to stay and relax. It is by far the best hotel/bed and breakfast in Santa Cruz. Having lived in nearby Scotts Valley for 20 years and then returning as a tourist I can say that the locals love the Inn and were so glad when the property was renovated about 10 years ago. I've been back to stay several times. It's a great location and quiet for being centrally located to the beach across the street, West Cliff drive which is a walking path all along the beach front down to Natural Bridges, the boardwalk, 30 mins from Monterey and blocks from downtown Santa Cruz. It's a beautifully restored Victorian mansion with ambiance, personality, clean and cozy. The staff is friendly and helpful and always make my stay memorable with a handwritten birthday note and balloons in my room. The breakfasts are delightful, tasty and a special treat. You won't want to leave and you will want to come back!

Room was clean, nice, very small "Deluxe King", on second floor - small windows,which open onto public deck/balcony, so cannot have open if people are on deck. Loved the home-baked cookies available all the time, also very nice wine and cheese/goodies in afternoon. Breakfast was lovely, very good, simple. Staff was one college student who did not know much, not even where wharf was, never saw anyone else. Good location as easy walk to wharf and boardwalk. Very pretty place, well kept.

Front desk hostess was very friendly and welcoming on our arrival on Friday

Our stay at the West Cliff Inn was extremely enjoyable. The room was beautiful and comfortable. My wife especially liked the bathroom. We were close to the wharf and the view from the Inn was spectacular. Will definitely be back....

The top floor room was lovely as was the bathroom. Thought for the most expensive room there, we would have the best room. The windows were super small, would recommend remodeling windows to increase lovely view. Outside street noise was super loud, hard to sleep, not much you can do about that I think. Day bed/couch cover had burn marks in them which was pretty gross. Breakfast smells woke me up at 5am they were so strong in our room, not sure you can do much about that either but the smell of meat frying was extremely strong, would recommend a better ventilation system in kitchen as guests may not want to continue to smell food so strong for hours at a time!

The room was beautiful and the staff were great. The hot tub did not work properly and the breakfast could have been better.

We LOVED our stay at West Cliff Inn. Staff was so friendly and helpful and our room was fabulous! The breakfast in the morning was delicious and they had a great quiche. We were on the third floor and had a great view of the pier. Location is great for walking. My only complaint is that I asked the staff if they could find out what brand and color of paint was used in our room and they were great and immediately send an email to corporate and said they would let me know. I never heard from them so forwarded my own email to corporate several days later and still have not heard anything back. If they don't have the information, a courtesy email back would have been nice. Wonder what would happen if I had a complaint....Hmmm?

The staff kindly upgraded my room. It was a lovely stay - I could run along the cliffs, eat a lovely dinner in town, dropped in to a wine tasting, and time to read a book in quiet - just what I needed after five months working in Afghanistan. Even if other guests aren't coming from a war zone, this is the perfect spot to enjoy being alive.

Was pleasantly surprised by our room. Big and Clean! The host was also really nice and informative. Definately be coming back.

Location, location, location. Lovely room looking out toward the bay. It was quiet and relaxing. The room was clean and well appointed. We did point out to the inn keeper that the curtain in the room was torn and looked a little shabby and she said they were aware of the problem but unclear on on to fix it (how about replacement).

The lamp in our room didn't work, the noise from the rest of the house was atrocious, really the only redemption was that each morning there was an excellent breakfast prepared and made available in a calm, friendly environment. NOISY place to stay. Not serene!

Front desk and kitchen staff were extremely friendly! The cookies when we arrived (snicker doodles) were amazing. We stayed in room 9. The bathroom was fantastic, very clean and spacious, loved the shower. Would have liked to have more windows in the room and bathroom for more natural light although skylights were a decent substitution. Also the roll-away AC unit was unnecessary as the weather was cold that weekend, and the unit just took up space. Otherwise, we would definitely come back and will look for other Four Sisters accommodations in other cities as well. Thank you!!

West Cliff Inn is an old-world building in a great location, a short walk to the Beach Boardwalk and a few blocks from downtown shops. Our Petite Queen Cottage was (as expected) small but tasteful and private. Breakfast--a serve-yourself buffet--was copious, varied, and delicious. Use of the bicycles was an added bonus. Wi-fi signal was strong. Very minor issue: DVD player was incorrectly connected to TV. 2nd night free made it a true no-brainer. Strongly recommended for anyone interested in the area.

We enjoyed our stay here very much. The only problem was that we did not know what to expect as we had never stayed at a B and B before so we only booked for one night. Unfortunately, we should have booked for two nights as we had a wonderful time and it was such a great location. The Inn was already full for the second night so we had to pack up and move to a different hotel that was lovely as well, but not quite as nice. My advice is to book for two nights minimum. One night was not enough, however, the standard later check out of noon was nice. We didn't feel rushed.

Awesome view .....awesome service....great price....loved it

Great service and best valued with the breakfast, drinks, cookies, movie, games, bike, etc. Great location with ocean view- close to beach.

I booked an evening at the West Cliff Inn as a birthday suprise for my husband who used to live in Santa Cruz. We stayed in the King Suite (#5) and were thrilled to find a hot tub on our private balcony! The location was fabulous, right across fromthe beach and the property was absolutely lovely! The staff could not have been more helpful! Overall, a fabulous stay!

We loved the location, just a hop, skip and a jump from the Boardwalk and Wharf. The room was beautiful, and the front desk staff were really kind. Parking can get tricky in the evening, and breakfast was a bit late (but delicious). I would recommend the West Cliff Inn to friends.

My husband and I stayed at the West Cliff Inn for two nights as part our Honeymoon trip in US (We are from the UK). The hotel was lovely, in a great location, and the room that we had was fantastic with an amazing view of the Broadwalk. Breakfast was very good, but can get a bit busy if all guests decide to go at the same time, as the front room where food is served has a limited number of tables. Wine and nibbles was also a good touch in the afternoon. Would definately recommend this hotel to anyone going to Santa Cruz.

This Inn is located across the street from the beach in Santa Cruz. It is beautifuly maintained with wonderful evening wine and snacks. The breakfast every morning was scrumptious. The room was clean and had a large soaking tub and a partial view. However, the room was situated next to a row of Condos that had very noisy young tenants living in them. We did not sleep the entire vacation (4 nights). My husband had to go talk to the individuals partying outside our bedroom window, and this started at Midnight and went on for several hours. (there is no staff on sight at night) Too noisy to ever stay there again!

We had exceedingly friendly service and a delightful room. The common areas were pleasant, and food was quite good.

We stayed overnight at Westfield Inn. Although we thought it was pricey, the place was quiet and classy and not crowded and noisy like the other places. The room we stayed had the ocean view with a nice balcony from which we could people watch. The wine and snacks in the evening was a nice touch. The free breakfast was a wide variety and healthful too. Overall, a ncie stay.

I strongly recommend the West Cliff Inn to anyone who wants comfort, a clean place, nice amenities (bicycles), and a great location near the beach, the downtown and the Boardwalk.

We were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness, friendliness,comfortableness and overall appearance of the B n' B. We would certainly go back! It's right near the Boardwalk and accessible to the main roads. The breakfast was delicious; not just your typical Continental breakfast. And, the baked goods were a nice touch.

We honeymooned here with the celebration package and it was just PERFECT. The best way to relax! We also ate at Aquarius across the street for dinner and it was delicious.

I only spent one night at the Inn because I was attending a conference in Santa Cruz and arrived one day early so I could go surfing. The location of the Inn was excellent for my needs. The Inn is spotless and exceedingly well maintained. Everyone working at the Inn was wonderful and professional. It was the first time I had stayed at the Inn. If I return to Santa Cruz, I will definitely stay at the Inn. I will recommend the Inn to my friends and family traveling to Santa Cruz.

We had a spacious room and bathroom... and particularly enjoyed the early evenig wine and snacks (complimentary) which we drank/ate on the upstairs balcony overlooking the beach.

the staff was super friendly and even gave us a complimentary room upgrade. i had a great stay.

I stayed in the petite cottage. The pictures online make it seem as though the hotel is right on the cliff edge, when there is actually another hotel and a street separating this B&B from the cliff. That aside, the view is still great! Carpets in the cottage looked sad and worn, but rest of the cottage was in perfect condition. Really enjoyed my stay. Friendly staff. Great amenities with the afternoon wine and snacks and complimentary coffee and cookies. I would definitely stay again.

We stayed in the cottage outside of the main house. It was little, but had everything we needed including quite. No one ever bothered us. We went into the house for breakfast, which tasted great. Breakfast was set up so you could go in between 8-10 and eat. Some people stayed in the dinning room and some took their food back to their room. The bed and breakfast is located in a great location. It only took about 3 minutes to walk to the beach/wharf. I will be going back with my husband to stay again.

I strongly recommend the West Cliff Inn to anyone who wants comfort, a clean place, nice amenities, and a great location near the Boardwalk.

My wife and I don't get away very often, but when we do we like to go to a nice place. The Westcliff Inn exceeded our expectations in every way. The hotel is so quaint and beautiful. The staff was so curtious and accomadating. The location could not have been better. We look foward to coming back and even enjoying some of your other properties. Thanks for the special getaway!!!

The West Cliff Inn was an anniversary destination for my husband and me. The inn is lovely, the staff were very nice, the room very comfortable, and the breakfast delicious. My only complaint was the location. While it's got a great view of the beach and water, it's on a busy street with lots of traffic, so it's not exactly tranquil. For the occasion, we would have liked something a little quieter.

I booked the small cottage on a whim only a few days before our trip. The room was small, but better than I expected. The staff was very helpful and curtious. The breakfast was super good and we couldn't have asked for a better location. I'm super glad that we spent the extra $10 to stay at the West Cliff Inn instead of the roadside motel that we were looking at. I would definitely stay here again!

Don't get me wrong, this is a nice play, but the location isn't as romantic as one might think it is. Most rooms don't have a great view of the bay unless you shell out for the top of the line room. The breakfast provided in the morning was very disappointing -- barely any food, just a small breakfast bar with a few hot plate items. The staff was super nice. Rooms have no AC, which is acceptable but my wife and I would only stay again if the price was sub $200

Beautiful corner room next to the balcony with a view of the pier. Will stay here again next year.

Quiet and cozy place despite the throngs of crowds just a block down celebrating the 4th of July. Room was super nice and private. Loved it!

The hotel is a beautiful Italian Victorian Home converted to a B&B. The room we had was wonderful since we had a room with a balcony overlooking the Santa Cruz Harbor. The website is a little misleading in that it appears the hotel is right on the water. It is in fact one or two blocks away but if you have a second floor room facing the harbor, it really doesn't matter much. The accommodations and breakfast were first class! I can't wait to return and try one of their sister B&Bs in other areas of California as well as The West Cliff Inn!

This is a choice property, tastefully decorated (not the often kitschy B&B look) and maintained. Very relaxing, wonderful views of the lively beach but far enough away for peace. Highly recommended.

This is a very nice location just above the boardwalk and beach area. We decided to stay in the petite bungalow and it was very small. This was not a surprise, as it was mentioned on the website when we booked the room. The breakfast was good and included in the nightly rate. I would stay here again, but would probably opt for a room inside the main house.

The petite cottage was just that - petite! But it's private and cozy. The main house looks amazing. Breakfast is excellent and service of the staff was also excellent. I can't wait to come back for another short get away trip.

This was a wonderful B & B and we thoughly enjoyed our stay.

Stayed here for 2 nights on a weekend... it was a great experience.... beautiful building...

I loved how close this place was to the Boardwalk! I chose to celebrate my 38th birthday with my husband in Santa Cruz (mainly because I wanted to ride the Giant Dipper repeatedly.) We were without our young children and we also wanted to have a romantic getaway. This was perfect! The best part of our room (#5) was that we had a private hot tub on our deck. The night sky was gorgeous from our toasty little hot tub. It didn't matter how there was a chill in the air. It was pin-drop quiet at night. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was spacious. The room was super clean- it didn't feel like there were other people staying there before us. It was wonderful! I loved how breakfast was a no brainer- right downstairs when we were ready. I didn't feel like I was being 'nickle and dimed.' You can't ask for too much more.

A good inn for stay in Sata Cruz if you don't mind not having AC and stayin in a rather old building. You should also make sure that you are fit and don't have too many luddage as there is no elevator to go to second and third floors.

We had a lovely visit at the West Cliff -- we were in the small cottage in the back which at first, appears rather tiny. Once inside, it is quite a lovely, cozy environment. Very clean and QUIET. The bathroom is so tastefully done that we are hoping ot replicate it at home. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I would love to come back and stay here again.

Good location, although a bit noisy during the day. Breakfast was good but not sumptuous. A good alternative to the Dream Inn across the street.

This bed and breakfast was wonderful!! The staff were so nice and welcoming, the room was beautiful, the whole inn was beautiful!!!! It was right by the beach with great views, we had a private deck with hot tub, which was perfect at the end off the day. would definately go back, already thinking about our next trip!!!

A really nice place very well located on the seafront - and very friendly staff. Would definitely recommend to my friends

Great rooms, perfect location. The food was good, but nothing fancy. We went to breakfast half way through the serving times and everything was a little cold.

Room was nice, food was good, bathroom was great, the staff was really nice. Enjoyed our stay a lot!

very nice and friendy service! we would indeed recommend it! the room was big and the breakfast was yummy, small but yummy :)

The room was wonderful and had a great view. The staff at West Cliff Inn were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was great! Loved the late night dessert as well! We will definitley stay at the Inn again!

What a great B&B! Everything was perfect: room, breakfast, personnel. And located right across the street from the beach. Any other hotel or B&B would be disappointing by comparison. Thanks!

The Inn is beautifully furnished; interiors are just as described with words and photos. However, we were surprised to learn that the Inn sits not on what we consider "the bluff", but across the street from the bluff facing the Dream Inn, with the view of the ocean obscured by buildings and roads. The view of Monterey Bay from the website photo is actually about a half-mile or more down the road, not visible from the Inn. We went cheap and stayed in the cottage which is a small wooden structure behind the Inn, surrounded by an asphalt parking lot, backing up to a mobile home park. Our initial impression is that we had just rented the servants quarters. It is tiny as described, but well furnished and comfortable enough for an overnight stay. The wine and cheese at night, as well as the marvelous full breakfast in the morning at the main house made up for our disappointment of the location. The staff was also a bonus. They gave us with a tour of the Inn as we checked in and were so very gracious that I was reluctant to complain about feeling mislead about the location and view. One more caution (not the Inn's fault): On Monday mornings the trash trucks drive right next to the Inn to empty multiple bins at the townhouses located a single road's width away from the cottage. Don't expect to sleep in!

The West Cliff Inn is a beautiful historic home. The room was decorated in a warm beachy feel, however was extremely small. The staff was great as was the breakfast and afternoon snacks. The biggest problem was the noise from the warf. It was a warm evening and we needed to have the windows open, therefore did not get to sleep until after 1 AM.

The cottage was great- it is very small but for a couple it was perfect. The ease of access from parking lot was ideal for me

We were "complimentary upgraded" from the cottage which we had originally reserved, in part because we liked the idea of a separate space. The room were were upgraded to was rather central (and noisy) as it was right off of the main living room area. The gas fireplace would not stay lit for more than a minute, which was unfortunate because it was a cold couple of days. But otherwise, the room was pretty - we liked the high ceilings and the decor, and the complementary wine and snack period was excellent.

I got into town late and got turned around in the dark. The woman at the front desk gave me excellent directions over the phone. Once I arrived, she recommended an outstanding nearby restaurant. Overall, the stay was fantastic. I just wish I had gotten in earlier to see the sunset from my room window.

Good value for a place with a view to the ocean. The place is very clean and staff are friendly. Would definitely come back.

! went on line to find a bed and breakfast close by. I grew up in the bay area,so noticed the building when I saw It. We had the best time. Afternoon wine and cheese was ok. Cheap wine and cubed cheese,but we were going out to dinner later. We loved our room, they upgraded us when we arrived. The man who checked us in was wonderful, funny and polite. Our room was beautiful. Breakfast was not great, not a lot to choose from. We went down around 9:30, felt like leftovers from the weekend. We will stay again because of staff, and our fun time we had.

The Inn is in a restored Italianate Victorian house located a few minutes' walk to the Wharf, Boardwalk and 10-15 minutes on foot to downtown. Santa Cruz public parking, especially in summer, can be difficult and expensive so the location is helpful. The high ceilings, understated restoration and feeling of privacy once you are inside make this an ideal retreat from the quirky busyness of Santa Cruz. We checked in a bit after the evening host services were finished, and our host offered us a glass of wine anyway--very appreciated after a long trudge through traffic. Although breakfast is not elaborate, every morning they try to put out a little something special--something hot, something baked fresh. Heat is by a gas fireplace in each room, and there is no AC.

What a beautiful room. We received a major upgrade which made our anniversary wonderful.

Clean and quiet with a very friendly staff. Would stay again.

Great location. Staff is very pleasant. Lovely old building. Breakfast was well done. Not inexpensive, but good value if you can get the winter special.

Title says it all. We stayed for one night in mid-January 2011, during their low season and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Breakfast was a refreshing change for the better after several other hotels and B&Bs on the PCH failed to impress.

Perfect location -- right across from the water, within easy walking distance of the boardwalk, but far enough away from the busyness to relax. Absolutely beautiful rooms -- our room had a huge marble shower and a very large jacuzzi bath -- it was gorgeous. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Overall, this is hands down my favorite place to stay in Santa Cruz.

Excellent service from staff. Very convenient location.

My wife and I had a fantastic stay at West Cliff Inn in Santa Cruz, CA. We had our room upgraded upon our arrival because it was our anniversary. The room was very nice and most importantly the bed was very comfortable. The rooms are also quiet. Our breakfast experience was the best we have experienced at Bed and Breakfast establishments. Full breakfast that was cooked, fresh fruit, and good tea and coffee. The staff is very helpful and hospitable. We would definately stay again.

This B&B up on a hill, with views of the boardwalk and beach, is lovingly restored with 14 ft ceilings, large spacious rooms for roaming, very nice bedrooms with soft towels, bedding, and WONDERFUL mattresses and has a casual yet elegant vibe throughout. We were able to visit with their Winter Specials, which made it affordable and therefore a "value" for us. They serve coffee/tea/cookies all day plus afternoon tibbits and a buffet breakfast that could use better breads/rolls and a little extra umph--still it was fine. We loved our stay. Their wrap-around verandas/porches will be an additional plus in the warmer months.

Check in was smooth, property was clean and well presented. Staff was accommodating and available. Room was exceptional. Great amenities. Nice breakfast and afternoon wine and snacks. Beautiful views, great proximities. Loved this place.

I LOVED this Inn. It was so beautiful and the staff was very nice!

Spent two nights to celebrate our 27th anniversary. We were greeted with balloons and a nice note wishing us more great years of marriage - a great touch. Staff works hard at making a very positive attitude. We will be back.

It was great to stay across the street from the Ocean. We went for a great walk on the beach and poked around the broardwalk off-season peaceful site. The service at the inn was excellent and gorgeous room to relax and enjoy.

We only spent one night but it was very comfortable for a couple and one twenty-something offspring in the top floor room, even affording a private feeling. It's the best location in Santa Cruz. I highly recommend it.

This was our second stay at this Inn. The innkeepers were delightful and you can't beat the location. We arrived early for check-in at noon. They not only were able to accommodate us but they even upgraded us.

This inn was everything that my daughter, once a guest, had said it would be. The only "negatives" were in a couple of housekeeping issues in my room. I'm just going to mention them because your standards are so high, and I would want a guest to do likewise if I were the innkeeper. A picture was hanging askew and when I tried to straighten it, I found the hook was broken. I also couldn't turn on one of the swing lamps on one side of the bed. The other one worked fine.

I stayed at the West Cliff this past weekend and had a wonderful time. When I was booking the hotel, I was on the phone with Demi and online at the same time. I wanted to book online because I thought I found better rates online from what Demi quoted. However, on my drive to Santa Cruz, Demi noticed that I booked for the wrong day, so she call to inform me and said that the rate was going to be sightly higher, which I was cool with, but the blessing is Demi was so nice to us she gave us a free upgrade. Check in was a breeze, Demi was very helpful. However, when it came time to check out the nightmare begin. At exactly 12:00 pm a woman from the hotel enters my room unannounced while my companion was fully naked and getting dressed on the bed. Then at 12:10 pm someone from the front desk calls the room insinuates that we are taking too long to vacate the hotel. The final interuption happens at 12:20 when she sends another woman to knock on the door to aks if "i needed help with my bags". Really? I just told her on the phone that I didn't need help with my 1 small duffel bag. I have never had a checkout experience like that before and I spend 80 to 100 nights a year in hotels because I travel for work. The reality is I had a a great time and the hotel in nice, but once 12:00 pm hits you better vacate the premises or they will bother you until you do. I checked out at 12:30 pm, she even had the nerve to be rude when we check out. Everyone else I encountered at the hotel was friendly and hospitable.

My boyfriend and I had a lovely stay at the West Cliff Inn. They upgraded our room to one with a jetted hot tub which was nice (but we didn't use it). We had a great view of the beach and boardwalk. The fireplace was a nice touch considering it was storming outside. The cookies they had laying about and the wine and app hour was really cute as well. Breakfast was nice however, as a carnivore I could have used some meat :). Our trip was lovely and we will def. be going back our next time in Santa Cruz.

It was a delightful stay, the innkeepers made us feel very welcome, the room was very comfortable and we certainly would like to come back next year, I would certainly recommend the Inn as a pleasant get away. We left with happy memories.The price was just in our range.Thank you for your hospitality.

My boyfriend and I stayed one night to celebrate his birthday. The staff and even the other guests were so friendly. Our room actually shared a balcony with other rooms, but no one was out there. It felt like we had our own private view of the Cowell St. Beach/Wharf/Boardwalk area. Beautiful place, beautiful view. And the food (breakfast) was amazing! I expected coffee and pastries, but we had many options... really good, homemade food... eggs, pancakes, etc! Amazing! Thank you, West Cliff!

I reserved a 2 night stay for my son and new daughter-laws wedding weekend in July 2010. I traveled from Iowa to help make some wedding plans in June and visited the West Cliff Inn in person before the wedding. The staff was very kind and helpful. I booked the Cottage for the honeymoon, but when I got back home to Iowa, I decided to upgrade them into the house. On my son's wedding night as they checked into the inn at a late hour, he was presently surprised that he had been upgraded to the best room in the house. When he thanked me for the upgrade I asked him about the room and what he descrided to me was not what I had reserved. Due to a last minute cancelation the staff upgraded him to the best room with the best view at the inn and only charged me for the room that I had booked, which was cheaper. I offered to pay the difference, but they insisted it was their pleasure to upgrade! What a wonderful surprise and wedding gift to my son! I am sure that they will return to the West Cliff Inn in the future to celebrate their anniversaries!

Beautiful Inn. Our room was lovely with a great view. The weather was rainy so we couldn't take advantage of the beautiful balcony overlooking the ocean. The bathroom was absolutely perfect and spotless. All in all a great spot!

The West Cliff Inn is amazing - I have travelled in the US for six months and it is the best accommodation I have ever had the fortune of staying in.

Our stay was after the summer crowds had left, my girlfriend and I wanted to spend some time away from everything and just relax. We picked this place because we thought the room pictures looked nice. I have to say, the rooms are much better when you're there. Rooms may be pricey but worth it when everything there just felt clean and tidy. We went for a king room, and we had best sleep in a long time. The front desk was very helpful and made sure our stay was a pleasant one. We're definitely going to plan for another visit.

This place is lovely! The inn itself is pristine, very clean and beautifully decorated. The service is top notch. My only suggestion would be that they get a bigger variety of games for people to play.

When we arrived the fireplace was on. We were extremely hot during the night and not able to sleep. We had been told how to adjust the fireplace but not how to turn it off. Even on the lowest position the fireplace made the room very hot! There was no one to help us in the night. Because we were on the first floor we could not leave a window open. The first thing we did in the morning (My Birthday)was ask for help. At that time we were told how to turn it completely off. I am still upset about this! The fireplace is not needed in September! It made for an crummy, sleepy birthday.

Arrived and was informed we were upgraded to a spa room much to our delight. Everyone was very friendly and service oriented. I would stay again.

Everything was just outstanding, we could not of asked for a better stay. We would recomend to anyone staying in Santa Cruz.

Really good experience staying West Cliff at Santa Cruz. My room with own private Spa, I will try other Four Six Inn sometimes.

PErsonnel were very accommodating. BReakfast was wonderful. The atmosphere is welcome peace and quiet away from teh boardwalk, video games and beach tourists in Santa Cruz.

Nice location and great service. The Breakfast was good. All in all a great stay.

Upon arrival the grounds were well groomed and very clean. Parking is adequate. When we entered the Inn, the desk clerk/attendant was a pleasure and quite attentive. Room 7, which is on the second story, was clean, quaint and cozy. It has a lovely large balcony with north and west veiws. The small gas fireplace insert was cute, relaxing and very functional. The room had a wall mount flat screen LCD TV above the fireplace and DVD player placed upon the mantel(which infact was the only downfall to the room. I thought it took away from its simple charm). Bathroom? Well lets just say that we could have spent the whole time in there! It was beyond spacious, and was decorated to be very relaxing and calming! The Jaccuzzi tub was so deep and sooooo wonderful! We were very impressed with our overall experience! Only regrets....couldnt stay long enough! Theres always next time! ;)

Staff was great...letting us know what was available, getting bikes ready for us, discussing routes, etc... Fron desk notified me after checking out that I had left a folder with travel information at front desk. A staff member patiently reviewed the contents with me over the phone and forwarded important items immediately to my home. Thank you, Adriana! I will stay at another Four Sisters Inn whenever I have the opportunity.

Beautiful building in a great location. The rooms are very cute and extremely comfortable. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable.

We have never experienced a Bed and Breakfast and were delightfully surprised! Our room was extremely spacious and beautifully decorated. The bathroom was gorgeous with the 2 person spa tub, separate and very large marble shower and a skylight above the bathtub. The kingsize bed was very comfortable, but the comforter was a bit too heavy. We loved the feel of being a guest at someone's home. One suggestion we have would be to provide bottled water or if they're concerned with being "green" then proved pitchers of filtered ice water in the rooms without having to ask. We also enjoyed the "being at home" feel by having a cookie jar with fresh home baked cookies, the wine and appetizers in the later afternoon and coffee, tea and beverages throughout the day. We plan on trying other Sister Inns with great anticipation!

We stayed in the cottage. It was very small and cozy. We were very comfortable. I loved the cookies that were provided 24/7, along with the home baked goodies for teatime and breakfast. We will definitely come back, but hope to stay in the main building next time. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful.

I stayed in the Queen's cottage room, which is behind the main house. It was very private, very clean and very comfortable. I had a wonderful stay and will stay here again on my next visit.

Loved our room, it was better than I expected! Just thought the $60 for the champagne and breakfast in bed was more that it was worth! But loved the place and look forward to coming back, hopefully not in the summer during high season. Thanks again!

The staff was wonderful. Location and room decor was great. Room was notsoclean.

Great location and the rooms were gorgeous. Service was inconsistent though - one night we received turndown services and the other night we didn't. Breakfast was delicious and served promptly. Overall a great B&B experience.

I highly recommend the West Cliff Inn. A simply beautiful building in a perfect location in Santa Cruz. The rooms were tastefully decorated (think Pottery Barn catalog) in pleasant hues. The bed was firm with comfortable, high-quality linens. Soaring ceilings, tall windows, balconies with wicker furniture for an Santa Cruz sunset glass of wine. The bathroom was just wonderful. Subtle marble everywhere. A large spa tub, and - the coup de grace - heated floors and a heated bathroom mirror: no steamed up mirrors after the shower. The breakfast was delicious and expansive. If we weren't moving to Santa Cruz, we might go there for vacations simply to stay and relax at the West Cliff Inn.

Stayed one night at the West Cliff Inn. The inn is a first class bed and breakfast. Since the inn was having an open house meet and greet for the area, parking was scarce.....we met a lady at the front desk that offered to move her car from a large space to a smaller space that our rental mini van could not fit.....after checking in, it turns out the lady was the president of the Four Sisters Inns. Very nice gesture and much appreciated.

What a fantastic place, the West Cliff Inn. From checking in to checking out, the service, employees, the room, and the atmosphere were all outstanding. I would like to visit this Bed and Breakfast over and over.

Very satisfied with the stay, booked the room last minute and received a late booking deal. Will stay again.

Our stay at West Cliff Inn was our first Bed and Breakfast experience. We were delighted with everything. It was such a treat to have afternoon wine and hors d'oeuvres on the balcony over looking the ocean. The staff was so helpful and went out of their way to make our stay outstanding. The food was great. The room was just beautiful and very clean. All in all it was an incredible first time experience. I would definitely recommend the West Cliff to anyone.

Very nice room, very good service, excellent location. The only "down" side is we stayed on the first floor and its very noisy especially at breakfast time. Otherwise, no complaints!
