Great breakfast, close to beach and downtown. I’m glad we chose this hotel. The only thing is the freeway noise, but not that big of a deal considering how good everything else was.

I had a great stay here during my trip to Ventura. The location is super convenient—right off the highway, which made getting around really easy. The room was surprisingly spacious and clean, with one of the most comfortable beds I’ve slept in at a hotel in a while. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay, and the continental breakfast was a solid way to start the day—plenty of options and everything fresh. If I find myself back in Ventura, I’d definitely stay here again.

From our wonderful check-in experience with Gabrielle to the overall world-class vibe, we were not expecting this place to be anything special. We were completely wrong. We now have a favorite place to stay when visiting our son at UCSB.

Lovely getaway at Amanzi Hotel in Ventura

We loved our overnight stay at Amanzi Hotel. The location is very convenient: close to the freeway, safe, and within walking distance to Downtown Ventura and the Ventura Pier. We walked everywhere from the hotel. The staff member that helped us was very nice and we had a great parking spot (free of charge). The hotel is very modern and clean, and our room was quite spacious and the bed was comfortable. We slept very well the night we stayed! The breakfast buffet had a nice wide variety of options and were pretty delicious. Will stay here again when we come back! Thank you!
