Had the most fantastic week stay. I’m a long time visitor of the Cavalier. My only minor issue was when I use the floor heater to warm up the room. It also warmed up the RV style refrigerators in the room so that they were not cold anymore.🙂

We loved our stay at the Cavalier. Upon arrival we received an upgrade to a room with an ocean view, fireplace and balcony. The views are fantastic! Staff were friendly and helpful. The location is beautiful and close to Hearst Castle, hiking trails and nearby Cambria. Just a suggestion, bring your Amazon Fire stick with you if you want to watch tv. The basic tv in the room is analog.

Our interactions with hotel and restaurant staff were very pleasant; everyone was very accommodating. Check-in and check-out were easy and quick. The room was clean and comfortable. The ocean view was fantastic. We have only two minor criticisms: 1) There was no microwave and the refrigerator was VERY small and almost completely filled with hotel snacks and drinks. 2) The tv channel selection was very limited. Granted, we don't go to the coast to watch tv, but we want more than news and sports.

Liked: Staff & service
**Check-in was smooth and the staff was friendly. The location is lovely and really the highlight of the property. That said, the rooms feel very dated and could use an update. I was disappointed with the “upgrade” I was offered. I originally booked a Deluxe room with a King and a fireplace and was upgraded to a Premium Bluff King, also with a fireplace. Unfortunately, the room was on the first floor, very dark, and had a noticeable smoky smell. There was no ocean view from the room itself—only if you stepped outside. While the fireplace was larger, we were only there one night, and the view mattered far more to us. Interestingly, my daughter kept her original Deluxe King room and had a beautiful Pacific Ocean view with a smaller fireplace, which neither of us really cared about. Overall, it’s an okay hotel for a short stay because of the location, but I’d recommend being cautious about accepting an “upgrade” and confirming the view before doing so.**

Great location. The sound of the ocean from your patio and a fireplace to sit around at night. We went here for a couple's weekend away. 10 minutes to Hearst Castle, 10 to Cambria, and 30 to Morro Bay. Perfect location. The food was great, and the staff were very friendly and professional.
