We looove this hotel! Husband and I stayed 3 nights. Super and I mean SUPER clean room - no dust, no stray hairs, no speck of sand or dust anywhere, clean carpets, spotless everything! The windows were PERFECTLY clean (not one fingerprint or streak!) - this was awesome because the view IS the kicker here!! We def noticed that Adriana in housekeeping and maintenance staff really take pride in their work and it shows, we tipped Adriana accordingly.Bed was comfy, nice big tv - although you might not need it with that VIEW! For us, the old school feel was awesome. Coffee selection and liquid creamer (I hate the powdered stuff) in the room was great - also in the room: actual ceramic coffee mugs, wine glasses and wine key. Fridge, microwave. The special touches: fanned TP, tissue and towels. The adirondack chairs on the back porch have a cup holder with a slit for your coffee mug handle - it’s definitely THE spot to enjoy your morning coffee! The following are all just minor suggestions, want to note these did NOT take away from our experience at all! …Front desk closed at 9 due to staffing shortage - but we called ahead and they made special arrangements for our late arrival and they have an emergency number to call if necessary. An updated heater system wouldn’t hurt - although it worked great and kept the room nice and toasty, just a little old school. A new shower head would be cool (just not one of those dumb “rain shower” heads, just an updated one would do the trick). Thank you Mo and the entire staff, we had a great time and WILL be back!!

The room itself serves its purpose. The decor is... the decor. The real reason to stay here is the view. Which is its real value.

The view of the ocean is absolutely incredible!! Every room has this view. I was expecting it to be super expensive but it was very affordable for the amenities you get. I traveled with my friend, and wanted 2 queen beds. We got them and there was even a partial wall that separated us which was nice for privacy. I will definitely come back here when I’m in the area again!Nearby activities: Very close to Glass Beach for any of you beachcombers!

This place is great and had a nice view. My wife made reservations here for our 25th anniversary, not realizing that you'd have to be part mountain goat to get to the beach. We had to travel a mile or so to actually touch the water. I walk with a cane, and there's no way I was going to make it down the cliff, although there were a lot of people that did traverse the trail down. We will stay here again though. Nice jacuzzi tub and nice bed.

Great value! Awesome view of the ocean. You can watch the sun set from inside your room at the giant window or out on your small deck. Lots of easy walking trails, beautiful cliffs, and tide pools to visit. Very peaceful and

My husband and I were interested in staying on the waterfront. Chose this hotel as so many others were sold out of their water view rooms. Front desk manager very nice. No discounts nor breakfast. Mentioned that there were ongoing renovations so he chose the section that had the most done. Second floor room. Amazing views. Nice and quiet. Old pink carpeting with a step up bedding area. New furniture that others have mentioned. Not to our taste but then I’m not living with it. The bed and linens very comfortable. Room very clean. However- Get rid of the old gold label hotel cups. Jacuzzi tub and bathroom all need total overhaul. All and all a good nights sleep.

Fairly nice place, nice & close to the beach, our 2nd floor room had panoramic view of the waves breaking over the rocks, a spa tub, gas fireplace and balcony. French provencial (?) furniture is a bit over the top. About $275/night midweek.

My husband and I stayed at Ocean View in Fort Bragg CA. Our visit was heavenly. We stayed 2 nights, Aug. 23 thru 25th. The ocean view is breath taking. When we go to Fort Bragg once a year we always stay at Ocean View. The staff was extremely pleasant. Especially Mandy, Mo and Greg. The decor has been changed. New beds, dressers, chairs(inside and outside chairs). Our room was beautiful and clean. The mattress and pillows were also new and comfortable. We have visited Ocean View for nearly 7 years. Anyone who visits Fort Bragg should stay at Ocean View. You can walk to the beach along the Pudding Creek Bridge. My husband and I recommend the Pudding Creek Bridge. Fort Bragg is a relaxing place to visit.

I have been staying at this particular establishment for nearly four years now and I have to say my latest visit was superb. They have been making upgrades and it shows. The room was clean and looking fabulous. The water pressure in the shower was amazing. I love that they have installed microwaves. The chairs on the balcony were very comfortable.This is my favorite place to stay in Fort Bragg, and for good reason.You get an amazing view of the ocean, access to the coastal trail for walking or biking, walking distance to the beach, and it is close to town.In my opinion this establishment offers the most variety of amenities and comfort. Great job on all your upgrades Ocean View Lodge. I love seeing the solar panels and having better internet service too.

Staff is great.Place is in a great location - clear views of the ocean, nearby beach at Pudding Creek, and this used to be our "go to" spot. We'd seen the place go "down hill" a little, but then new owners appeared and were making much needed repairs. Then they decided to remodel - in a style that is, well, gaudy, over bearing, and just ugly - at least to us.They have managed to make the rooms smaller by replacing the furniture with larger bed frames with huge headboards and adding upholstered scroll end benches to each room. Upon arrival for our latest stay, we were given an upstairs room where the "new" furniture - specifically the bed frame, was cracked at the foot end on both sides. A repair had been made, but the repair was horrible work - the cracks still showed and the frame appeared "bowed" out on each end. Staff was very accommodating - we immediately switched to another room. That room wasn't much better as far as the furniture goes. We found stains on a scroll end bench and damage to the table by the window and a bedside cabinet. This "new" furniture appeared used and abused to us.We were shown a nice display of what a future remodel will do to the rooms here. Not a style we appreciate.You be the judge - we think its a change for the worse - but if you like a style from France and England from the 1800's (guessing here - it could be another influence) this will be your spot.I don't think we'll be back. Check out the places next door - similar great views, without the crazy furnishings.

As of late August 2023, the picture of a room on TripAdvisor does not show you what the rooms look like now. BIG changes have happened. We’ve been coming here for a while, and the new owners had started to make much needed changes here. Then we arrived in August 2023 to find massive changes in the furniture taking place…. As far as we’re concerned, the new furniture is massive, cheap, gaudy, pretentious, over bearing, and just down right ugly. The first room they tried to put us in had a bed frame that was cracked - nope, not gonna get blamed for that! Moved to a second room - wow, what a let down! This place used to boast spacious rooms - but the rooms are now filled with golden colored huge furniture pieces, from massive head frames to oversized tv cabinets. Even in the second room we moved to, there were dents and evidence of the furniture being used - new to this place, but definitely used somewhere else before. We were shown a nice display of what a future remodel will do to this place - if you like gaudy, gold colored, crappy furniture and over the top decor, this will be your go to spot for sure. For us, we won’t be back.
