Granada Hotel and Bistro

A 1922 landmark in the heart of downtown San Luis Obispo, Granada Hotel & Bistro has the kind of history you feel the moment you walk in. Part of the Nomada Hotel Group, the property has 17 individually designed rooms with bespoke furnishings and original artwork, each with its own character. Downstairs, The Bistro does a European-leaning menu with nightly dinners and weekend brunch, plus a sunny patio for the SLO afternoons that make people move here. Then there’s Nightcap, a speakeasy-style cocktail lounge tucked inside the hotel with no reservations and a serious spirits list. The location puts you steps from wine country day trips, coastal drives, hiking, and one of California’s most walkable downtowns.
