Nomads Hotel - Near San Clemente Pier

We love the vibe of Nomads. Very unique place and the upstairs cafe and canteen are wonderful. We always stay here during our visits to San Clemente.

The first room was clean and nicely arranged but my son had to move to another room and that room was very dirty with old food on the floor and mattress area.

I loved the canteen above the hotel. Service was amazing and I could tell that they scrubbed down the room before we came. We got two free drink cards to enjoy while our room was being deep cleaned. The rooms there are so amazing and have character to them. The hotel's location is right next to the main street where you can eat, drink, etc. Definitely coming here again.

The hotel and restaurant is absolutely fantastic! Parking is typical San Clemente parking. We will definitely be staying here every time we visit.

It's a Small Surfer Villa-Style 7-Room Hotel with an end of the hall entrance to Rooftop Soul-Seafood Restaurant. Each room is surfer-style, customized & modernized with remote heating/fan/air conditioning. Apple, Netflix & Regular TV. The lady, Julie at the office was very nice & gives you her cell phone for any help you need. It's a little gem in downtown San Clemente and from my little garden patio, I could see the Pacific Ocean. The California Route 101 Room that I stayed at is right below the kitchen so I could hear the restaurant's kitchen dishwasher & bus boy dish roller above me, but they closed at 10:00PM. Also, 24-parking is free at the restaurant if you sleep in late like I do.

I stayed one night in the Boat room. It’s tiny…the toilet is on the shower, no joke. I appreciated the comfortable bed and the small fridge and microwave. However, if you expect to sleep early, this is not your place. The bar/restaurant is directly above this room and you can hear everything; footsteps, music, etc. Fortunately, it stopped at 10pm, but it was annoying to say the least. The parking situation is tough as well. I am glad I paid less than $100 for the night, otherwise it would not have been worth it.

Fun, brightly colored and spacious room (We stayed in the Bali Room). It was perfect for our family of 4. Conveniently located within walking distance to several restaurants. The Nomad Cantina right above was also really fun, and had excellent food, great beer selection, and fun, vibrant atmosphere and decor, and the staff were friendly. Surf friendly. We did not take advantage of the SURF CAMP, but with San Onofre State Beach and Trestles nearby, I bet it would be awesome.
