Top Kern County Museum Hotel Reviews

Comfort Suites Bakersfield

10/10 Excellent

"I had two separate bookings for my family, and I somehow booked the second room on the wrong days. The property manager was very kind and helped me out with correcting this and even upgraded our room for the first night so we had enough sleeping areas for the kids. We had a wonderful experience, and we even added on another day to our weekend. Thank you so much!!"

SureStay by Best Western Bakersfield Central

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was real scrambled eggs & real hash browns!"

Best Western Plus Hill House

8/10 Good

"Room was nice and clean but dated. Staff was helpful and gave privacy but still gave extra towels. The construction and fact that the gate to the lot is locked from 10p-8a is a little annoying so you can get in after hours using your hotel key but getting out; you need the front desk to open it for you."

The Padre Hotel

8/10 Good

"Classy and historic!"

Spark by Hilton Bakersfield Central

10/10 Excellent

"great clean room, nice area"
