Capitola Hotels

In the middle of the coastal town of Capitola, the 57 room Best Western Capitola-By-The-Sea Inn is within 10 miles of the many attractions of north Monterey Bay, from the Pacific beaches to the redwood forests near Santa Cruz. The hotel has a mixed commercial/residential setting at 1435 41st Ave - quite a busy road with various restaurants and shops including Capitola Mall 2 blocks north - and which reaches the Pacific Ocean 0.7 miles south. The town center and Capitola State Beach are a similar distance east. All the rooms (and suites) have a microwave & refrigerator; other facilities are an outdoor heated pool & sundeck, internet kiosk, exercise room and spa. Free continental breakfast is served.

Open spring 2011, Marriott's first hotel in the Santa Cruz/Capitola area is the Fairfield Inn & Suites, a small, bright, modern and well equipped property located along 41st Avenue, half way between Highway 1 and the Pacific Ocean; in a largely residential area though just 2 blocks from Capitola Mall and its associated restaurants & shops. The nearest major beach (Esplanande Park, near Capitola town center) is less than a mile away. Free continental breakfast, free wi-fi, a pool, fitness center and business center are the main amenities.

Formerly Capitola Inn, the new Quality Inn Capitola has an attractive, tree-lined setting beside Hwy 1, on the edge of a small commercial area with shops, restaurants, a post office and other useful facilities. This location is walking distance (less than a mile) from the charming town center and Esplanade Park by the Pacific Ocean, and just 5 miles from Santa Cruz. The 55 rooms are divided into four two-story, interior corridor blocks, separated by trees and lawns, and all contain a microwave & refrigerator. Amenities are a sheltered outdoor pool, sun deck, free hot breakfast and a business center.
