Petit Soleil is an absolute ten star gem in San Luis Obispo. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel genuinely welcomed, and I was delighted to receive a thoughtful room upgrade. The accommodations were impeccably clean and beautifully appointed, with décor that is both charming and sophisticated. Every corner of the property radiates warmth and character. The breakfast dining experience was exceptional. Petit Soleil truly captures the spirit of hospitality, and I look forward to my next visit.
