Top McKinleyville Hotel Reviews

Arcata---Cozy, Newer Cabin in the Redwoods with Hot tub

8/10 Good

"Directions were clear and organized. Property was easy to get into. Little cold and hard to heat, but manageable. Kitchen was sufficiently stocked with dishes and cooking utensils. Long list of house rules and cleanup that felt a little overwhelming and confusing at times. The loft was really nice hang out in and WiFi/tv worked well. The cabin was clean, with a rustic vibe. Overall good value."

Best Western Plus Bayshore Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This is my second time staying here. The staff is so friendly and warm. The lady that takes care of breakfast is beyond outstanding. I watched as she constantly cleaned, refreshed the food, and made sure everyone was taken care of. She would come get plates and the customers that stay there for out of town jobs all knew her and she treated everyone like family!! The front desk also are very warm, and make sure everything is ready for you. When I travel back that way again this is the only hotel I want to stay at!! Thank you to all staff for making a home for everyone traveling!!"

Comfort Inn Arcata - Humboldt Area

10/10 Excellent

"Typical comfort inn! Clean and comfy, and breakfast is always a plus."

Best Western Plus Humboldt Bay Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Property was well managed, maintained and secured to ensure you and your family could unwind, relax and enjoy the oasis at the hotel. The pool was great but the expansive hot tub was just what the body needed after a full day of hiking in the area parks. Couldn't say enough about the relaxing & therapeutic benefits to hitting the hot tub each night, even with a random guest the 3rd night hitting the emergency stop button like a game show contestant before asking if that was how you turned on the jets longer. Thank goodness we had already enjoyed 25 minutes of the jacuzzi before that party foul. We will book again when back in the area."

Holiday Inn Express Arcata / Eureka - Airport Area by IHG

New!!! Oceanview Guesthouse

"Purpose of our stay was visiting family and the location and house was perfect. The kitchen had so many amenities including slow cooker and stand mixer so for cooks its a definite plus! The house was very clean and comfortable we have no complaints. The views from the living room and outside deck are stunning! We truly enjoyed our stay and thank our hosts for prompt communication and providing a very relaxing atmosphere. We plan to visit again in the future and would like to rent this home again no question!"

Motel 6 Arcata, CA - Cal Poly Humboldt
