"I stayed here to break up the trip driving to LA into two days. Everybody from the valet to the weight staff in the rest"

10.0

I love the way they remodeled this building. The Art, the floors, while keeping the historic charm. Really nicely done.

It would’ve been nice if the rooftop was open, but that’s OK

"Fabulous! I'm coming back and recommending to everyone!"

10.0

Seriously the best hotel in Bakersfield! We loved our stay and will absolutely be coming back. The restaurant was so amazing as well. The front desk staff were beyond incredible. Sarah at the front went above and beyond my expectations and was so helpful! I called her my hero! Raise for her please!

Valet guy could definitely act a little more interested in doing his job. Maybe also open the door for people, if that doesnt take him away from playing on his phone. The bathrooms were so cool. Very nice. But I took a shower in the evening and in the middle of the night, the shampoo and body wash bottles fell off the wall in the shower. Scared the heck out of me. The condensation from the shower must have caused the tacky strip on the bottles to lose their grip from the wall. I feel like there could be a better way to mount them.

No luggage carts available and need an easier check in process (quicker); shower needs a darker curtain to cover the exposed side.

"Beautiful historic hotel"

10.0

The Padre Hotel never disappoints! This is always our first choice. When we are visiting family in Bakersfield. The hotel is clean and the lobby is luxurious. We love the marble staircase with the original tiles. The staff is wonderful. The restaurant was fantastic. Our waitress in the restaurant was darling.!! Super busy but so cheerful and even remembered my drink from previous day! The gals at the front desk were helpful when I had questions they provided notch service. I definitely recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Bakersfield.

"Not As Good Anymore"

4.0

I know this hotel well, having stayed there annually for the past few years. This time around was different. The club noise kept my family up all night. Plus, the overall quality of the rooms has decreased. It's time for renovation.

"Historic hotel with perfect location"

10.0

Central location. Nice hotel with an historical vibe. Comfy bed. Big room (we had a Maverick). Generally quiet. Could use more lighting especially in the bathroom. Lacking some bathroom amenities. Could use a little more careful cleaning. Caulking around bathroom sink was dirty. Carpets not well vacuumed. Otherwise a very nice hotel!

"Wonderful respite during our travels!"

10.0

We were driving through Bakersfield on our way to and from Death Valley National Park. Everything from arrival to departure both nights was excellent! All the staff were friendly and super accommodating. We enjoyed the restaurant and the cafe.. The staff were cheerful and the food was very good. Room service was excellent and just we needed on the second night. The Brioche French Toast in the cafe was the best we've ever had!! We happily recommend the Padre Hotel and would stay here again!
