It's the only slightly better hotel in town. So they overcharge and don't do the free breakfast. The room is spacious and clean. The bathroom tight, tight. The thermostat just plain didn't work. You could have heat or A/C. The hotel repair guy worked on it, but really not working. So we just did without which seem to make the... More

There isn't much choice in Clearlake. It is a down heeled sort of place, which seems to make a habit of not utilising any of its natural beauty, i.e. the lake. But we had driven down from Salem and were tired. A Best Western is a Best Western; we knew what we were getting into and it was only $20... More

The front desk staff was helpful finding a convience store and gave me very good directions. Looks like the hotel is going some renovations... More

We stopped over here on a whim in April travelling across to the Pacific Coast. We chose this place based on the Best Western name and because it appeared the best of the bunch. The hotel has obviously been very elegant in its day but is starting to show its age. That said the room was comfortable and we ate... More

I stayed at this hotel for 2 days in mid July for a 102 mile bicycle ride. I give this hotel a strong recommendation if you decide to stay in Clearlake. If I returned to this area, I would likely stay in Lakeport since they have more of a developed tourism infrastructure there. Below are my specific comments of the... More

Better or worst. After a very hard week at work, I wanted to get out of town for a couple of days. I had my wife book a room there being that it had an indoor pool and hot tub. So we drove 3 hours to get there. And then we were told the pool and hot tub were closed... More

I stayed at the Best Western El Grande Inn With my family last month and we had a fantastic time. They have a beautiful Hotel with wonderful staff! They have an on site restaurant and Lounge. The food was delicious, and the wait staff were exceptional. I fully recommend this Hotel to anyone staying in the Lake County area!
