This amazing hotel makes you feel at home from the minute you step in. The decor and the woodwork, the patio with a fish pond and beautiful gardening, the outdoor tables and chairs, everywhere you look is beautiful and cosy. The rooms are sparkling clean, super comfortable bed, a bathtub, handmade soap and lotion, bathrobes, a small library on the wall, absolutely perfect. The breakfast is fresh and healthy including granola, fresh fruit, yogurt, breads, eggs, great coffee, orange juice and more. The staff are so friendly, kind and helpful. Excellent location, close to everything yet quiet and peaceful. There is also a rooftop. Cannot recommend this place enough. We loved it. Thanks Avalon Hotel for the best stay.

This is a lovely boutique hotel in the center of Avalon. The rooms have a new and fresh look, and a Craftsman design. They either overlook the patio or have a porch with a view of the bay. There is a rooftop patio as well, with a stunning view. In addition, the staff is wonderful. In particular I want to mention Evelyn and Corrina (sp?). They were on top of everything. They had answers to all our questions and were beyond personable. They arranged taxis. They recommended eateries and activities. Wish I could have stayed longer. I wonder how I could life in SoCal for 70 years and this was my first trip to the island. By the way, the weather can be pretty good in February, this is California after all. In February you kind of have the place to yourself. My highlight was dancing with my wife on the circular floor of the ballroom at the Avalon ******. (It is not a ******** ****** and there was no band.) But, it gave you feeling of being there in the Big Band era even though the music was only in our hearts. (O.K. That was a bit much.)

Beautiful little hotel staff was super friendly very accommodating their little courtyard in the back very cute and quaint great little breakfast options room was very clean. Bathrooms were remodeled and very clean. Our only complaint would probably be some new pillows, and the bed was probably a little too soft for our liking other than that I would definitely still stay there again.

We were on the 3rd floor. There was considerable noise from the air conditioning unit on the roof. It cycled on and off all night long making difficult to sleep.

From the moment we arrived there was always someone at the front desk with a smile and a friendly chat! The room was fantastic with very soft beds and huge bathroom! We especially loved the lighted mirror and huge tub! Would highly recommend the Avalon Hotel to everyone!

I book with Avalon Hotel to celebrate my fiancé s 60th birthday. The began communication with me right after booking. We arrived early and room was ready. They provided a nice bottle of sparkling champagne and a personalized card for my fiancé. Hotel and accommodation were perfect, clean and cozy. Breakfast was light and refreshing. Hotel was quiet and you could not hear guests and staff coming and going. We will definitely book with Avalon Hotel every time we go to the island.

Loved our stay at the Avalon Hotel. The hotel is conveniently located, the staff is warm and inviting, the rooms beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We started each morning with breakfast on the back patio and after adventuring all day, we would come back and enjoy coffee and tea by the fire pit. I highly recommend staying at Avalon Hotel.
