“Small Town Goody”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

This hotel is at the edge of the shopping and dining area of town. Great for walking to eating places and shopping. Staff is very helpful and they are just plain great !!
The best rooms are #21 and #22. They face the main street. On a sunny day the mornings are great from these rooms. They have a continental breakfast....but there are some great eating places nearby also for breakfast. I really like Paula's Pancake House

“Best Hotel Of Our California Adventure”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 December 2011

We managed to get a very large room upgrade I think because we're members of their 'Value Club' scheme. It was also a bargain for just £50 a night.

I wish we'd stayed here longer, it was so cosy. There were fireplaces all decked out beautifully for Halloween. We had a separate shower/bathroom and kitchen area. Massive, comfy beds and a little balcony overlooking the swimming pool and hot tub. The flat screen TV had loads of channels and there was free Wi-Fi too.

Service was professional and you could park right outside your front door.

It was a very short walk into Solvang town centre from the hotel and there's a windmill viewable from most rooms, which gets you in the mood for the place.

Breakfast in the morning was basic but excellent, with a wide range of Danish pastries (not surprisingly!), juices, fruit, cereal and coffee (which you could take away).

We had a great time here and this hotel was the best of our trip. Outstanding value for money.

“Nice place to stay in a fun town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2011

person found this review helpful

We came here on our tour of CA missions. We weren't prepared for Solvang...and ended up having a good time. The town is aggressively cute, but all the bakeries in town have awesome danish pastries. We had a very nice room, nothing fancy but clean and spacious with a good size bathroom. The staff was nice, although don't take their advice on mini-marts...there are plenty in town! We didn't want to spend more than one night in Solvang, but enjoyed our stay and the hotel was perfect.

“Bargain”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 December 2011

This is an older facility but clean and comfortable. Best of all, it was a great bargain. No great expectations, no great disappointmewnts.
Staff is friendly and competent and location is central to downtown Solvang.

“Wine Country Gem”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011

We travel to Solvang from Florida to ring in the Christmas season each year. This was our fourth stay at Svendsgarrd's and it never disappoints us. While these are not luxury accomodations, it is clean and comfortable and you cannot beat the location. One can easilly walk to a number of great restaurants (don't miss Paula's Pancake House-worth the wait), tasting rooms, and quaint shops. It is also centrally located to Los Olivos in one direction and the Lompoc wine "ghetto" in the other. For those who enjoy holiday festivities, Solvang shines this time of year with parades and lights that make the place even more magical. We'll be sure to return!

Room Tip: We like the second floor near the pool.
