Quiet and tranquil lodging in the park, ideal for hiking, dogs, unplugging, convenient to many locations, including Pfeiffer beach and other restaurants nearby. Lacking some amenities in the room so probably only practical for a night or two but reasonable for the area. There a nice pool as well. Some areas are a bit rundown but overall a very nice stay! Excellent staff and tasty food options at the lodge just steps away from the river walk surrounded by redwoods. Good beer too!

My friends and I enjoyed this property immensely as part of our getaway to Big Sur. Comfortable beds and room, friendly staff, delicious restaurant & coffee shop, warm fireplace in the lobby and restaurant, great gift shop and a perfect location. We hiked the nearby trails in the beautiful redwoods that were spectacular. Parking is easy. It's a beautiful, comfortable, fantastic lodge! Thanks to the superb and friendly staff for making us feel so welcomed and happy here. We can't wait to come back and stay again.

I loved the Big Sur Lodge. It is in the heart of Big Sur. It is extremely situated convenient part of Big Sur. Close to the Big Bear Bakery and lots of great restaurants with breathtaking views. I loved the room, shower, bathroom. Each room has its own parking and you can walk to Pfeiffer park and they have gorgeous trees, river, bridges. I will totally come back to this hotel with my family.

Run down and thin walls
I read all the reviews so expected a lot of this but was still surprised. The walls are THIN. Seriously thin. I could literally hear everyone’s word for word conversation in the rooms around me. No privacy. Rooms are seriously RUN DOWN. Like I get it’s not a 5-star hotel but chipped paint, dirty coffee makers, smoke stained chimney. Even without the fireplace lit, the whole room smelled like smoke. I felt like with what I spent, there is a minimal level of service and maintenance expected. Customer service was meh. Between the front desk and the restaurant, I had to go find someone to help. And they seemed shocked I could want something. And the food at the restaurant was barely ok. I would definitely not make a trip back just for the food. Big Sur as a destination is great but I don’t see myself coming back to Big Sur Lodge. Next time I’ll try someplace else.

If you want a quiet, off of the map, unplugged, magical experience, this is it. The rooms are not fancy, no Wi-Fi, no TV, no frills. The beds were decently comfortable and we had a fireplace and a small deck to sit on. That being said, the lodge is extremely nice with a fire going and a place to hang out, books to read with comfortable seating, a coffee shop, a restaurant with very friendly service, and a gift shop. There are no words for beauty of the grounds, it’s like being in a fairytale. We will definitely be back!

Nice stay, could be better
Stayed here for two nights on our first trip to Big Sur. The location and the surroundings of the property can’t be beat with lots of wooded trails to check out right off of the property which was fantastic. We arrived late (around 8 pm ish I think) on what was probably a busy day which I understand but there was just one other family ahead of us and nobody after us, which is why it felt a little odd that the check-in process felt rushed. Since there was a storm and we were traveling with a toddler, I had a couple of questions. But the kid who checked us in was unnecessarily curt. Okay, whatever! So, I let it be. Anyway, we checked in and got free entry to three local state parks which was nice but as luck would have it, we ended up spending a lot of time in the room because of the rain. The cottages themselves are spacious and feel private with a nice balcony overlooking the trees and a cute skylight. However, everything in there felt dated and definitely needed a good dusting. I agree with one of the previous reviewers who said the walls were paper thin because we could hear every time our neighbor sneezed. Lol! But it was mostly quiet. There is also no wifi and the cellular reception is spotty. The heater in the room rattled all night but kept us warm albeit the dust on it was slightly concerning. All in all, it was a rustic, peaceful stay but I am not sure it justified the $$$ though.
