An absolutely lovely Inn. A great place to spend time in Morro Bay and centrally located. The Inn offers very comfortable rooms with great beds and views of the bay. The staff is helpful in so many ways. Be sure to spoil yourself with dinner downstairs at The Galley restaurant. One of the best meals in town. Cheers . read more

Beautifully done hotel right on the water. The rooms are very spacious and decorated beautifully. Loved the extra touches like the binoculars and drink coasters. I also liked how small it was, so it kept things quiet. Staff was great. Can't wait to stay again! Every room has a great view! read more

Anderson Inn - View from our room - Hotels Near Me - Morro Bay, California

When in Morro Bay, we always stay at The Anderson Inn. Why? The place is literally at water's edge, with an incredible view of the Bay and Morro Rock, there is no better view available. The rooms, and I'm speaking of the ocean-front or as they're aptly described "over the water" rooms (we tend to stay at the Starboard Suite when available), are not only clean and perfectly maintained, but beautifully decorated and downright cozy, with all the amenities one could ask for, including a quality pair of binoculars with which to closely watch the ample marine life parading in front of your balcony. Upon arrival, we're always greeted by a very friendly face, the staff makes it their mission to provide a trouble-free check-in experience, and remain attentive to its guests' needs throughout. There are countless activities within walking distance, whether you're after some kayaking around the bay, paddle boarding, renting a boat or taking a whale-watching tour (when in season). Or just do what we do, slow yourself down to Morro Bay pace, enjoy a glass of wine, and watch your stress melt away while enjoying a peerless view of this amazing location. You'll find yourself making plans to return the moment your stay is over. read more

We decided to go to Morro Bay instead of Monterey Bay and we were so happy we did and stayed at Anderson Inn. Even though we only stayed one night during our world wind/last minute PCH ride, we were so happy that we chose Anderson. The place is located centrally just feet from the bay. Clean, well appointed nice view, romantic, very nice and friendly staff. We were very satisfied with all the accommodation. Also we recommend the restaurant attached as the view and food did not disappoint. We will definitely be returning and staying longer next time! Our biggest complaint is that the neighbors ( Harbor Seals) partied all night; Just swimming and barking all night. JK, with the window closed you couldn't hear a seal fart. read more

All of the 5s are correct, the Anderson is simply amazing. The view, the comfort, the attention to detail, it more than met my expectations. It may be marketed as a stay for couples but I will say as a solo traveler who wanted a quiet premium experience it checked all the boxes. read more

Wow what an awesome place to stay! The views on the balcony are insane, which is why you come to Morro, right? For the views! Waking up to a view of Morro Rock right outside your window is epic. Plus our room faced the rock + sunset - what a combo! Wish I had taken a picture of the sunset. The manager is so kind & friendly & welcoming, truly going above & beyond to accommodate & make your stay worth while. Great service! Man, our room was so nice. We had stayed previously in a Pismo hotel, which we also loved, but the Anderson Inn felt like an upgrade. It's small & cozy, which makes it feel like you get top of the line care. When you come in, there are little chocolates & waters, and there's a fun towel whale on the bed, a nice personal touch & very welcoming. Shower is really quality, everything is super nice, robes are so soft, soap & shampoo smells great & is easy to use with the dispensers right there. I always bring my own soap & shampoo but I didn't need to pull it out this time bc they provided the good stuff. The king size bed is so soft & comfy. Slept like a baby. The AC gets the job done & is easy to control. The TV had lots of channel options, better than the last place we stayed. Parking is right below the room for us, and we had no trouble getting a good spot even though we showed up late at night. The elevator is right there & helped us get our luggage up to the room. Easy peasy Great place to stay! Great location, right in the middle of all the action. Beautiful rooms, beautiful views. 10/10 would recommend and will be back hopefully! read more

Anderson Inn is a small charming property that sits at the water's edge over Morro Bay. Our room had a beautiful view of Morro rock. Everything in the room was tasteful and well designed, vaulted ceiling, overhead fan, LCD fireplace that (surprise) created real heat, microwave, mini-fridge, coffee maker... It was cozy and complete. The Inn is at the near-center of the tourist area on Embarcadero, with many restaurants, bars, and shops just steps away. Morro Rock is an easy one-mile walk (about 20 minutes) through the most picturesque part of the tiny town. Staff was friendly and helpful. Parking for guests is free, and they have chargers for EVs. Morro Bay is a tiny quaint town, essentially a picturesque fishing village, and Anderson Inn feels like a luxurious oasis at the center of it. Zero complaints. We had a great stay! read more

This is what they call in Portland a "boutique hotel", it's a renovated, updated old style motel. Make sure you check the type of room you're getting as they're all different. We got one of the really nice ones with a view of morro rock and windows we could leave open (2nd floor) to get the ocean breeze. It's on a Main Street so you also get the sounds of cars and people. The front desk is v friendly and helpful. It's close to everything you want to eat and see. Would recommend. read more

Great location, near Morror rock, to capture sunset from the balcony. Comfortable room, nice design Near many restaurants read more

This hotel was amazing! We stayed here for our 1 year wedding anniversary and the hotel left us a note and gave us a free bottle of champagne! We chose the port side room and it was right over the water. We saw and heard sea lions, harbor seals, and sea otters every day and witnessed some amazing sunsets! The room was nice and the bathroom was big with a jet tub and a stand up shower. It was also in the perfect location near restaurants, coffee shops, and plenty of water activity rental companies. I highly recommend treating yourself to staying at the Anderson Inn! All of these photos and videos were taken from our balcony! read more

My husband and I are spending a 4 nite stay at Anderson Inn. From check in, the staff, including housekeeping, have been the best. Rooms are very nice, spacious, and comfortable. Great in-room coffee maker and coffee. I recommend Anderson to all. read more

Keeping Anderson in the 5 star ratings! This place is great. The folks working there are super sweet and accommodating as well. The seals get a bit loud but we also woke up to sea otters in the water right in front of us. Very cool! Had the awesome and spacious port side rooms. Great fireplace and seating area and balcony. Morro Bay is a cool place with no nightlife. That's ok though. My wife approved and we will be back for sure. read more

It has been almost 6 years since we stayed at the Anderson Inn. Prior to COVID, we usually made it up to Morro Bay at least twice a year. With COVID and the Anderson family selling the Inn, we weren't able to return until recently. We immediately felt as if we hadn't been away at all. We found everything equal to or better than pre-COVID. The view is as amazing as ever. The staff is as caring and professional as before. The rooms are even better with the addition of king size beds. Room pricing is reasonable given the location and overall quality of the property. While we would like to have some negative comments so it would be easier to get reservations for our preferred room, we have to say there isn't a better place to stay in Morro Bay than the Anderson Inn. read more

Definitely recommend the Anderson Inn. Front desk receptionist was lovely, allowing us to check-in early and providing lots of helpful information about the area. Room was a nice size, king bed, clean, great view from the balcony, and located in a walkable spot from Morro Rock, downtown, and tons of food options. Amazing stay! read more

I found this place from searching on Yelp. It wasn't my first choice but I was glad the other place sold out. I ended up thoroughly pleased once we arrived. It was right on the water with a view of Morro Bay Rock. It was in the perfect part of town. We were able to walk everywhere for lunch and dinners. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very modern and clean. When I booked I told them it was a special occasion. When we arrived in the room they had champagne and chocolate waiting. I really enjoyed my time here. I would definitely stay here again! read more

Excellent place to stay right on the water with upfront views of Morro Rock. We randomly came across this place looking for a stop from our road trip from Carmel back home to Los Angeles. We stayed in the Portside Suite, and the decor/room was modern and nicely updated. Private balcony deck with a table and chairs, and even inside had 2 nice comfy chairs that looks out onto the balcony, with a fireplace in the room too. You can hear the seals outside your room, and see the sea otters swimming around. There's not a ton to do in Morro Bay but we did kayak across the way to the beach and walked around. The Galley and Dorn's have great food! Definitely will be back! read more

Fantastic little inn right in the heart of Morro Bay. It was clean, cozy, and had a great view of the rock from our room. Upon our arrival, the staff member in the front office personally gave us a tour of our room to make sure we had everything we needed. Morro Bay is small and has no nightlife, but it is beautiful and the perfect peaceful getaway. We will definitely stay here again. read more

Wonderful family-run inn with nice amenities and a million-dollar view. We had room 203 facing the Rock with a side picture window overlooking the harbor. The room has high ceilings, air conditioning, a ceiling fan and very comfortable furnishing. The best way to spend a late afternoon would be to get take-out from Giovanni's (one block to the left) and a bottle of Chardonnay or port from Chateau Margene (one block to the right) to read or watch sunset from the balcony. read more

Beautiful Inn by the sea. Friendly helpful staff. Wonderful appointed rooms, pristine clean, comfortable beds. 2nd time we have stayed, we had the captains room this time with a fireplace and doors onto the sea, seals get a bit noisy but hey ho that's why we are here, with the doors closed cannot hear them! read more

We lived in Morro Bay for several years back in the 1990s so I know the area. We called several places down on the Embarcadero and we decided to go with Andersen Inn, mainly because of the look and feel of the room and the close proximity to the rock. We were blown away by the room! It is really modern and contemporary but still has a comfortable feel to it. It was big and roomy and a beautiful hardwood floor. Two balconies! And it had a remote controlled heater/air conditioner that was up on the wall out of sight. The bathroom had a lot of counter space, and shower was tiled, modern and spotless, and it had glass/stainless steel dispensers for shampoo, conditioner and body wash. They even made accommodations for us to check in super early, like 11:30am. That was courtesy of Macy, the best hotel attendant of all time with such a warm smile and great attitude! Thanks Macy! The hotel is located right in the heart of the Embarcadero so it is active, but the sliding glass doors to the balcony are thick double paned and once you close the door, it is pure silence inside the room. Best of all, it it right next door to the place that has the best roast beef sandwich you will ever eat. Hof Brau. Andersen Inn is a little gem among the hustle and bustle of the Embarcadero and all of the other hotels. You will not be disappointed, and you will want to come back as soon as you can! read more

We had an amazing stay at the Anderson Inn. Beautiful views, lovely room, and friendly staff. Thank you!

We enjoyed our single night here. The room was superb. My wife was very pleased and the view of the Rock is so cool. Each room has their own balcony and a great view of Morro Rock. The front desk called when our room was ready (at like 2pm). But we were a couple hours away doing touristy stuff. Just the thoughtfulness to call and let you know if such a nice touch. The hotel is small, as are most businesses on the ocean front. But attaches is The Galley, which Cindy, got us a reservation at with zero effort and frustration. They too, CALLED ME, when our table was ready. So cool. The food was great and the atmosphere is what you think of for ocean-side dining. Parking couldn't have been easier and the location is right in the middle of all the coastline shops and attractions. We were granted a late check-out and left our car parked on property while we perused the shops in the afternoon. Just an outstanding little gem! Cannot recommend enough. read more

This place! Lovely, homey and feels like you are one with the marina. The rock, the fog horn, and the seals reminded us of a time when we owned our own boat. We loved every second of our stay from the boats sailing by, to the proximity of the hotel to the main part of this sweet town, to the AMAZING hotel staff. I had mentioned it was our 10 year anniversary and when we came back from walking around town there were chocolates and a bottle of sparkling wine with a kind note card congratulating us! Over the top kind, thoughtful amenities, super comfortable room and decorated very tastefully. We will be back to this gem of an inn! read more

My husband booked this place for my birthday. We were dining at the next door The Galley restaurant, so he thought it would be nice to stay here at Anderson Inn, right on the bay. Let me tell you, this place totally made my birthday extra special. Molly greeted us with a big smile, and she was very friendly and personable. We could not get the 3 front rooms that window is facing the water front, but still had a great view of the Morro Bay and Morro Rock from our balcony. The room was very clean and plush, and decoration was very nice and comfortable. We really liked the binoculars in the room! We've stayed at other hotels and motels in Morro Bay before, but once we experience Anderson Inn, we probably won't be able to go back to any other place. This place really had a personality, cozy and comfortable. You'll wake up next morning well rested and with the beautiful view of Morro Bay. read more

First off the Anderson's are in amazing family everything that has been said is spot on their hospitality is great! The only reason for the four stars in all honesty is that we would've preferred a king size bed instead of the queen and they're sitting chairs may need a little update. Otherwise if we were to be back in the area would happily stay there read more

Anderson Inn - View from the room - Hotels Near Me - Morro Bay, California

This was the most wonderful hotel experience we have ever had. There are only 8 rooms. We have stayed in high quality hotels many times, but we loved this one the most. The room was amazing, it had everything we needed, even things we hadn't thought of. The room was cozy, immaculate, romantic, lovely furnishings, comfortable bed, a place we wanted to stay and not leave. It was an anniversary celebration for us and there was bubbly wine and chocolates in the room. The view of the bay and Morro Rock from the balcony was fabulous. The Galley Restaurant was right next door and has excellent food. We also ate at Dorin's Restaurant a short walk from the hotel. We also had free parking. We can't wait to come back. The front desk staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. read more

This place is a jewel with a great location, wonderful and helpful staff, and a gorgeous room which was decorated so tastefully.

Our accomodations here exceeded all our expectations. Beautiful rooms, immaculate and cozy, definitely 5-star quality. Our family had the Shoreline and Driftwood suites and both had great balcony views of the bay and the famous Morro Rock. Staff was super nice and helpful, even walked us to our rooms. Great location on Embarcadero with souvenir & coffee shops and restaurants just steps away. Only here for just one night but will definitely return for a longer stay. Just a wonderful place to get away and relax. read more

Really beautiful room and great service! But there were a couple of major issues. We had an upstairs room and it was really WARM inside, and they have no AC unfortunately. We opened the sliding door, but our room was directly above a very popular restaurant so things were quite noisy! There is also a sea lion dock in the bay right out in front of the hotel, so this also added to the noise problem. The noise was tolerable with the window closed, but the room got very stuffy and too warm. For the prices they are charging, they really should have AC in the rooms, it would help significantly. Also the hotel is right smack dab in the center of the most popular area, so it was really crowded and sometimes even trying to pull into the parking area was difficult given all the people. Next time we will stay at their sister hotel down the street, no restaurant on the property, no sea lion dock out front, and less crowds down there. read more

Words can't do this justice. Molly and Jeff Anderson are just beyond compare for their hospitality. The location of the Inn is bar none for Morro Bay, otters and seals play within normal eye site. And if you can spurge for a room over the water, you will never want to do anything less, sitting on the balcony watching otters feast on the local bivalve molluscs is a special treat, which is a daily occurrence and there are binoculars should they be a bit off in the distance. Jeff and Molly!! Can't wait to see you lovely folks again and enjoy your property!!! read more

The service is incredible! This is a charmingly small inn with phenomenal customer service. We purchased a gift certificate for a Premium room. The cost was approximately $420 with tax. To accomplish this we worked with Mollie at Anderson Inn. This isn't some big chain, this is a family run operation. So you work directly with the owner. Mollie was so helpful and friendly. She made everything happen quickly and was just a nice person. We also spoke with Jeff, who is fantastic too. What a wonderful team. Big thank you to the Anderson Inn for their kindness. read more

This is a very small boutique hotel with only 8 rooms. We stayed in the Portview room. The room is huge. The view is fantastic. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We appreciated the towel that was formed into a Christmas tree on the bed. It was complete with colorful led lights. The room was spotless. It was well worth the premium for the bay view and larger size. read more

Very nice hotel. The rooms are very clean and spacious and it is within walking distance to everything along the embarcadero. And the desk staff are super nice and helpful. There were only two things that I wasn't too thrilled about. 1) The parking - there are parking spots for each room but 2 are handicapped so you have to find parking on the street if the hotel is full. It's not a big problem though because everything closes by 8:00 so you can just go down and move your car into the parking lot. 2) the shower heads - the water pressure is really weak so it felt like I was in the shower forever trying to get the shampoo out of my hair. read more

Enjoyed a restful night in a tastefully appointed guest room. Photos are accurate to the remodeled decor, everything you need, even a microwave is in the room! Wonderful bed and large shower with body jets. Clean and welcoming! Our room had 2 patios with seating and dining surfaces. It was my husbands 70th birthday so they left candy, a celebration bottle and towel decor. Great location. Wonderful, prompt service, when needed. Highly recommend eating at Galley Seafood Restaurant in front, downstairs. Delicious food and stunning views! This will be our lodging choice in Morro Bay going forward. Another favorite place to dine in the area is Taco Temple! Relax in Morro Bay! read more
