This hotel is a surprise. Simple appearing on the outside, our room was a hidden gem on the inside. We stayed in one of the rooms facing the slough, and it was wonderful. We had a beautiful view of the bird life flying back and forth, various critters appearing and and marine life in the water. The room was clean, compact and well appointed. The bed comfortable, shower excellent and our space was quiet. The highlight is the amazing view. We could have spent all day sipping wine, reading good books and taking in the sights from our windows. Highly recommend. Robin

We love Captain’s Inn at Moss Landing. It’s immaculately clean and so peaceful. We love the riverfront rooms where we can watch lots of wildlife in the quiet mornings. We also love the convenience of having a kitchen in the property where we can go in & out and use the hotel’s plates/cups/utensils. We love our short walks to the beach or the marina.

Get the upstairs room!!

We stayed 3 nights in the suite Hide Away. There was repeated notes about quiet time and this was where people can relax. We are light sleepers and were looking forward to the peace and quit. The first night we didn’t get any sleep due to the upstairs people walking around, getting up to use the bathroom, dropping things. Housekeeping is on the other side of the bedroom wall. We almost canceled out trip, but decided to give it another try. Thank goodness no one was upstairs the rest of our stay and housekeeping wasn't working late into the night. It was quite peaceful, and exactly what we needed. The area is very unique and tranquil. We would definitely stay there again, all of the rooms are interesting and I think the boathouse rooms would be my next choice.

Oh Captain, my Captain! Moss Landing is such a hidden treasure, and this was an amazing way to spend the night! The view, the soaking tub, the bed, the decorations, the viewing deck... it was all wonderful to experience! Watching the birds and the otters in the Slough was spectacular! It was quiet and people were respectful of the quiet times. The tub filled up and the water was so hot the entire time. The bed was a little hard, but I slept like a rock! The Innkeeper was delightful, helpful, and knowledgeable about the area! The snacks, treats, and beverages that were available in the common room were great options. I cannot wait to come back to this place again!

Clean & quiet I did not see any staff present during our brief 1 night stay The parking could be better. They apparently allowed a kayak boat trailer to take up one of the very few parking spaces near our room so we had to park on the street in front of the hotel which I was not anywhere close to our room.

The location and grounds of hotel are wonderful, quiet and peaceful. The room itself was disappointing: Sink was clogged, took good 15 minutes of manipulation to make it work. No hot water in the shower, just warm and in our “romantic shower for two” one side of shower wasn’t working properly Cheep microfiber bedding Not very clean, we had to have our son to wear shoes all the time, because after one hour of barefoot his soles were super dirty. Shower had hair on the wall and bathroom baseboards are super dusty. Soundproof is bad too, we stayed on the lower level and could hear everything what was going on above us, and people weren’t loud just doing regular things.

First of all, getting in was a pain. You can’t check in till 4:00 and the code didn’t work on the door. We had to wait some time and 3 call backs to finally get in. The room was super cute, quiet and comfortable. There is no shower, just a large tub, which is fine, but the water doesn’t get hot hot enough to fill it and be warm. All in all, we had a great time watching the birds, seals and otters out the big front windows.

I regret booking here. We stayed in the old blue house, which creaks and kind of smells. There are no staff on site, so although they put in writing everywhere to contact them, what can really be fixed via phone? When checking in, my daughter needed the bathroom desperately. The check in agent on the phone would not give us the code to get in the room until after i gave my credit card. I had prepaid, mind you, so why not respond graciously so my daughter could go to the bathroom? Also, he was hard to understand. When we got into the room, the window was open and it was cold and damp. If you like old rooms and antiques and want to be left alone in the fog and drizzle to write a book, maybe you will be happy here. I was not.
