Friends suggested we visit the Mission Inn while in the Riverside CA area. It was well worth the visit. As others have noted, in addition to being a historical and still functioning hotel, it is a local cultural and historical landmark.

Gorgeous historical building in a beautiful square! We stopped to enjoy a delicious Italian dinner at one of its stores. A mixture of cultural taste and mountain Riverside's calmness embraced the visitors with friendship in a Spring Saturday!

Do not be confused by the name. The Mission Inn is a local landmark and a national historic landmark and has always been a hotel, never a mission.

I am so glad I had an opportunity to experience this historic place along... More

The museum tour was interesting and informative, and we thought it was worth paying for. Our hotel stay, unfortunately, was not a good experience at all.
