Hotels with Pools in Eureka

Very beautiful hotel, good sanitation, the hotel's small swimming pool is very good.

While traveling on business, my husband and I chose the Carter House Inn as we were going to be traveling through the Eureka area. We chose this place specifically because it was in the Select Registry book of excellent bed-and-breakfast. The Select Registry chooses top-notch bed-and-breakfast’s after visiting secretly and grading them on everything. This was our third Select Registry bed-and-breakfast and we were expecting the same high-level of everything that we had experienced in the first two. Unfortunately this one didn’t live quite up to our expectations. The staff is wonderful and friendly and helpful. No complaints there. The young woman brought us lovely glasses of wine and sparkling mineral water upon our late arrival. However, we were disappointed with the continental breakfast which was pretty bad. Also we stayed in the Grand Suite and it has two fireplaces which neither of them worked. It was raining and we were told that it was because of the storm and the wind. The bed was not very comfortable and the pillows were extremely terrible. We were so glad we had brought our own pillows. One other thing is the window between the bed and the bathroom-very strange and a little annoying. The place is beautiful, well appointed but as a previous reviewer stated the area is quite sketchy and we were also told not to leave any thing in our car and lock it up tight. We were supposed to have a view of the bay which we did not. The window looks out over a bunch of old buildings and we might have been able to see the harbor on a little corner but it was a cloudy day and foggy and we couldn’t see anything. Overall I’d say we were not impressed and we will not be staying here again. A side note: the woman on staff in the morning noticed that I had left my jacket in the dining room and called me right away so we could come back for it. She was so sweet as are the other staff members we talked to. They are all lovely people.

The breakfast was good, but it must be done earlier. We arrived 20 minutes before the end, and some varieties are gone. There is a hot spring pool that is open-air. The hotel has a coin-operated laundry service.

A hotel with a sense of history. All the American cultural history is written in the building. I was fortunate to have a chat with the boss. It was very friendly and kind and helped us solve the problem about the nearby park!
