Pros: Completely Unique! Incredible architecture! Truly amazing property. If you have the time, you can take the tour for a fee, but we just enjoyed roaming on our own. At one turn we thought we were headed for the gym, but instead found ourselves in an almost "secret" hallway that lead to a beautiful rotunda. We were the only ones... more

This architecturally magical palace is smack in the middle of downtown Riverside. It sits on a city block, across from the public library on one side and a pedestrian mall on the other. We arrived at night and the gardens in front are all lit up with thousands of lights. There's self-parking in a structure on the next block, a... more

My niece was married in the St. Francis Chapel and the reception was in the Music Room on July 24, 2009. Extended family came from all over US. My husband, my 93-yr old mother and I traveled from So Cal. This hotel enchanted me on so many levels. First, they accommodated my mother's handicapped needs in the bathroom and loaned... more

My husband found a great deal on-line which also provided certificates for use in the hotel. We loved our room on the third floor balcony overlooking the pool area. There was a business party at the pool on Saturday night, and construction out of the back windows, but things calmed down early and we always slept very well in comfortable... more

I saw some spotty reviews on here which gave me pause. But I went boldly forward. I'm VERY glad I did. No noise issue: My wife and I stayed on the "Spanish Courtyard" which I heard (from other comments here) may be noisy. Perhaps that would be true if there was a wedding reception or other party (I don't know).... more

We were checked into a room that was already occupied and had to go back to the front desk to get another room. The hotel is old, dark and musty smelling. The layout of the hotel is very confusing. One can get lost very easily going from one place to another. We stayed in a very nosy and dirty room... more

The Mission Inn is a beautiful and unique hotel that started in the 1800's. It is located in downtown Riverside close to the convention center. If you did not plan on attempting to sleep here, you'd be just fine. Unfortunately for those of us who enjoy sleep, the rooms are far from soundproofed. I stayed in room 112 which overlooks... more

Fantastic and classy place to stay in Riverside. A bit pricy for myself, but the graduate school put me up there for a few days and it was a very nice place to stay. It seemed like aobut the only really nice attraction in the Riverside area which in general the city didn't impress me too much. The rooms and... more
