We loved our stay at the Clocktower Inn. It's a cute and unique hotel with convenient access to the Mission and the quaint, walkable downtown area. The room was clean and quiet. The breakfast/coffee was simple but better quality than other places we stayed. Parking on site. We were only here for one night but would have gladly stayed longer.

Cute but uncomfortable

Really cute hotel that was kept clean. Parking was a little tough, but the mattress and pillow were hard AF. Could feel the springs in the bed, super uncomfortable. Additionally, the hotel is within earshot of the nearby train.

Charming quiet hotel in a great location.

Beautiful hotel!! Front desk was so friendly and helpful. Hotel is very ‘boutique’-like. Beautiful warm decors. Quiet hotel room. Great location. Free parking. We walked to Main Street and had dinner and in the morning (Saturday morning) walked Main Street which had converted into an incredible Farmers Market. Would recommend to others and would stay here again.

Gem of a hotel in downtown Ventura

Beautiful hotel, beautiful architecture and decor. Spotless clean, large rooms with a lot of character. Excellent customer service. Easy check-in / checkout. (They allowed me to check in much earlier, as I needed to on the day.) Basic but good and fresh breakfast in beautiful atrium in the morning. A five minutes drive from the Majestic Theatre. A gem of a hotel where I would happily return and highly recommend.

Perfect location for the Ventura Marathon. Front desk staff was not too friendly. She seemed bothered by helping us. She kept telling us to come back later to check in and then a friend arrived and was able to check in right away.
