King room was large and had a comfortable bed (although it opens to the interior light well rather than exterior walls), simple continental breakfast offerings were good.

Older stylish building in a classic way. Room lighting not ideal. Staff was super helpful, way above a more traditional corporate hotel. Breakfast was pretty weak.

Hotel was ok. Town Square out in front, had homeless and vagrants. Didn't feel comfortable parking car overnight. Not many restaurants.

Great location! The experience of staying in a historic hotel in the center of Arcata is amazing!
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

I was pleasantly surprised with the property and location. It is right on the Arcata plaza. It’s a very nice down town area with lots of shops and restaurants all in walking distance of the hotel. The hotel itself is charming and well kept. I felt very fortunate to have found the Hotel Arcata last minute at the start of the Labor Day weekend on my drive up the coast. The parking is free and easy. The breakfast is included and very simple. The room clean but a little noisy from the busy street below.

Nice hotel, staff was fine. Only hotel in Arcata on the Plaza, and honestly? Not bad. Too expensive for the level of quality is my only complaint

Step back in time. It's like going back a century. This property is a well-maintained example of an early 20th century hotel. The staff is very helpful.

It’s a lovely old hotel. Charming and well maintained. All the staff were polite and helpful. It was a great stay!
Verified review

The property itself was fantastic a lot of old school charm. We loved the aesthetic. Staff was super friendly! Hotel was great! Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the community of vagrants in the town square right outside the hotel.

Historic hotel, located on the Arcata plaza and within walking distance of several restaurants. The staff was great, parking very close and the hotel provides a parking pass. We didn’t partake of the breakfast but it’s there.

Windows that actually open and a ceiling fan are hard to come by in hotels so I really appreciated the fresh sea air and fan here. Plus a comfy bed and pillows and hot shower made for a great stay.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The hotel is old, and that could have been part of its charm, but it is just too run down. They have interesting art in the hallways, so they are clearly pointing in the right direction. The location is fabulous, The staff was fine and the bed was fine. The room was not fine. I’m guessing they don’t have money to update it (replace carpeting, curtains,etc), or that they don’t want to remodel the bathrooms because the fixtures are original, but our bathroom was just not functional in terms of its layout (door hits toilet, in order to shower over the nice stand-alone tub you were expected to draw the old yucky looking shower curtains to the interior of the tub which meant they were touching you, even as a normal sized person) There was a very musty, old person smell to the room. It just didn’t work for me. My boyfriends hotel choosing privileges have been permanently suspended.

8/10 Very good

Nice historic building in the center of town. Very nicely maintained and the staff are quiet but friendly enough. The back of the hotel can get noisy with nightly alley mini parties. Our bed was basically U-shaped and we struggled to not roll into the middle of the bed. That was our only complaint. Parking is excellent and there’s a very good sushi restaurant in the lobby. There’s also a good number of places to eat around the plaza and in the surrounding neighborhoods.
