Scotia Lodge

The Scotia Inn was beautiful. Within driving distance of some nice spots to visit like the Avenue of the Giants and down the street was a few really good eating spots. There is a convenience store across the street that was really convenient too. We also ordered some local pizza (at the suggestion of a ln inn staff) and hanging around the Inn for the afternoon was quiet and a good vibe. Definitely recommend! Only "complaint" I'd have was no AC but also no screens in the windows. We're not from Cali so maybe that's normal, but we never felt comfortable leaving the windows open at night. Fortunately the room would cool down enough and they provide a fan.

Beautiful, great service. Gorgeous hotel!!! The front desk staff were excellent and the lobby area was beautiful, the restaurant was closed but the “small bites” offered by the front desk were delicious and very reasonably priced. The room was very clean. The only thing was that *every* flat surface in the rooms is wood….the nightstands, tables, console under the TV, floor…and sometimes drinks and ice buckets sweat, and there are no coasters or anything so there’s nowhere to set drinks that you don’t worry about damaging the beautiful wood accents. But other than that minor thing, highly recommend and would absolutely stay there again.

I really wanted to love this place. There were rooms available last minute. We were able to get a two room suite for cheaper than two separate rooms at any of the other places in the area.The building was really beautiful and the rooms were cute. The staff we met were helpful and very nice. The room came with a couple free drinks and chocolates, which was a nice touch. The rooms, bathroom, and common areas were clean. The not so great stuff: The beds were uncomfortable. If noise bothers you, this is not the place to stay. One of the windows banged around with every gust of wind and did not block any sound out. We were able to stop the banging with a little piece of toilet paper. Also, the water pressure in the shower was very weak and there wasn't really anywhere to set stuff down near the sink, which was mostly bothersome because the toilet didn't have a lid, so if you set something it could easily fall into the toilet. Also, one of the reasons we chose this hotel was that it was supposed to have a restaurant, but it wasn't open during the hours indicated. The bar was also not open. The person at the front desk was really helpful though and suggested a couple places not far away. We didn't really see any other guests, so maybe we were there in the off season or something, but it would have been nice to know in advance.
