Less than 5 minutes' walk from Historic Downtown San Luis Obispo, this motel features free parking and guest rooms with free WiFi.

Very clean and nice place, typical motel - in walking distance to downtown area - and on Thursdays there is a local market which one shouldn't miss to pay a visit to.

Peach Tree Inn, hotel in San Luis Obispo

Peach Tree Inn is located in San Luis Obispo. Rooms include free WiFi. Guests can enjoy a free continental breakfast at the inn. An outdoor seating area is provided for guest relaxation.

For what looks like a standard motel, this place has little touches that punch above its weight. Friendly staff, good breakfast including good coffee, cute outdoor seating areas (chairs on balcony outside breakfast room, Adirondack under a tree, might even be some by the creek), local newspapers. We were able to walk Downtown (maybe 15-20 minutes), though there are also some nice restaurants just down the block.

    Staff was very nice. Welcoming. Gave us a great dinner recommendation. The hotel was full but it was very quiet. We didn't hear much noise but we were on the 4th floor.

    Breakfast was good. The daily wine tasting was also nice. We got to meet other guests and mingled during wine tasting. Staff were all friendly. We walked downtown from the Inn, it’s an ok distance for us but may not be for others. Although we missed the farmers market because they’re only open on Thursdays. Overall a very nice place to stay. We love antiquing and there’s so many towns nearby that has great antique shops. Great location.

    I liked the decor of the room. The toiletries were natural and smelled great. The room came with a little fireplace. The grounds of the inn were nice and well lit. They had a restaurant on the property. They also provided a folder full of information that was really helpful.
