Top Atwater Hotel Reviews

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Merced

10/10 Excellent

"Very satisfied with this hotel, the staff was amazing nice and welcoming. The rooms were beautiful very clean well kept up . Included everything we Needed towels , dishes pots pans toiletries"

El Capitan Hotel

8/10 Good

"Stylish (not expensive materials). Restaurant and café are excellent which operate long hours, within hotel. Gym with nicely set ups. Down side is close to rail, can hear train noise and horns. Main street can be noisy at night too. Bathroom door designed to open outward so has to be shut close, less child friendly. Shower drain pan is dark so it is easy to see hair left over from previous customer. But over all is clean. Parking is next building, which is similar to free parking on site."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Merced by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk staff was welcoming and friendly, all hotel areas were well kept and clean, the bed was comfy with two clearly labeled options on the bed for firm and soft pillows (loved that), Dove toiletry amenities smelled and worked great (for once I wasn’t missing my own shampoo and conditioner at a hotel), breakfast options were plentiful and varied, and most importantly, as a solo female traveler, the surrounding area and hotel felt safe. Only change I would suggest in future renovations is to remove the bedroom carpet. Hotels always seem cleaner without it. Overall great stay! Highly recommended!"

Merced Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"The room was everything I needed. The air conditioning was working well,it was 101 degrees when I arrived. It was an older motel but everything worked as it should.I had a smart tv and that was great. They had a breakfast there but I left very early both mornings I was there so I missed it.Thank you Merced Inn&Suites for a great stay."
