This historic Inn is lovely, very well appointed & restored accommodations. Excellent service, beautiful upgrade to the property a few years ago. It’s a really quirky and interesting little town with areas of interest to explore, if you stay here, definitely take the time to walk across the bridge it’s a beautiful view. That being said there aren’t really any restaurant options that then other than the hotel but they’re closed during the week in the off-season. The town itself is really unusual and odd but if you’re up here to see the redwoods or drive the avenue it’s a nice place to stay.

The building is beautiful and staff are friendly and accommodating. Aside from the complimentary morning muffins, heads up the food is liquor-store microwave quality. I mean no disrespect to staff just warning others. We enjoyed our stay and would book again.

I LOVED the Scotia Lodge, beautiful, clean, comfortable, friendly staff. The town feels ‘odd’-abandoned. It is an old “company town” with limited residents, services. The scenery is beautiful there ARE bigger cities nearby. If you are looking for some peaceful, relaxation this is your place.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very well appointed hotel, bespoke & to the untrained eye pretty consistently mid-century modern in appearance ( maybe except for the weird ornate wardrobe ) furniture, great staff, wished the rooms including the bathroom had more surfaces, maybe a larger desk. The shared spaces are immaculate, The bath faucet would direct at most 10% of the otherwise great temp and pressure water to the shower head.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We loved our time here. We loved the historic vibes and the mid century modern aesthetic that was nice compliment to the craftsman building. We were welcomed with a drink at check-in and also had some complimentary beverages in the fridge in the room. Beds were comfy. showers were excellent with serious water pressure. Something to change? I would work on a better way to filter/clean out the provided pour over coffee (which was local and terrific). Drinks at the onsite bar were great. Would we stay here again? Absolutely, we're looking forward to our next visit.

Hidden Humboldt Gem!

Had an excellent stay here! The rooms are spacious and well decorated, staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and its located right off highway 101 with easy access to all of Humboldt County. Great for those who appreciate historic hotels and vintage vibes. Extra great if you happen to love Twin Peaks/David Lynch—very those vibes.

Me and my wife went to Scotia Lodge for her birthday in March and we had the best moments. They have the best hospitality and the staff are so nice and helpful, they made everything so special for me and my wife. They decorated our room, brought some drinks and little gifts, we booked some massages and it was amazing. We definitely plan to be back!
A welcome gift for my wife’s birthday!
