Beautiful location
Right across the street from beach and boardwalk. I loved the hot tub. There is also a heated pool and a fire pit. Breakfast was just muffins and oatmeal, but for the price, it was fine.

Basic travel hotel done right!!
Overall, the Castle Inn is a very basic hotel for Moonstone beach. It was comfortable and didn't have the musty ocean smell you sometimes get in properties like this at the beach. It was very basic but super clean and comfortable. They give you a small fridge for drinks and an alarm clock. Usually, the towels are flat and scratched at places like this. That was not the case. Everything was clearly new and clean. Will certainly stay again.

Great property with ocean views and beach walking across the street. Friendly staff, clean rooms. Beds are on the firmer side, and bathroom was a bit small. Plenty of chairs out front to view sunset, as well as firepit and heated pool/spa. Couple of restaurants/ wine tasting rooms within walking distance.

Loved our stay at Castle Inn, Cambria.
Adored this place. We arrived at night and only realized in the morning it was literally across the street from Moonstone Beach and the boardwalk. Pretty decor, nice sized room, refrigerator, coffee provided, continental breakfast provided. Took advantage of heated pool & hot tub. Just 10 minutes drive to Hearst Castle, 15 minutes from Elephant Seals Vista Point.
