Best Hotels in Bakersfield, United States

This review happen during CoVID (Feb 2022). My wife and I where visiting friends in Bakersfield. We spent one night. The hotel is located right off the freeway in an industrial area with other hotels located around it. The area around the hotel has a lot of fast food restaurants and some sit downs. But with that said we had a pleasant stay. The hotel was clean and the staff was friendly. The check in process was quick and easy. They have a little shop next to concierge where you can but chips, soda, and candy. The lobby was nice and the restaurant was open (Happy to see it was open). The room was nice, clean, and with plenty of room. For one night in Bakersfield it was perfect. We would stay here again.

Hear is a copy of my email to the manager January 15, 2022 that has not been answered to date “With regards to our stay for one night on Friday, January 14, 2022. We have several concerns about your hotel. Upon check-in we saw on your doors that all patrons entering your establishment must wear masks in public areas. We immediately witnessed one couple who were returning to their room walk straight through the lobby to the elevator and up to and back from their third floor room maskless. Not one staff member asked or approached them to put on a mask. To continue on that I just went down at 830 to get a coffee and three young adults with one child exited the elevator with no masks in sight. It looked as if they had just checked in. This is the laxist hotel in the three we have stayed in on our trip. MASKS ARE MANDATORY IN PUBLIC PLACES your sign says. Secondly, we don’t understand why when occupancy rates are so low you put guests at the back of your property regardless of how the reservation is booked. We booked through Expedia (to redeem credit card points) but would gather if we booked through my IHG membership we would have received a better room facing the front of the property. At the very least a disclosure should be given that there will be train and loud horn blast noise during the night so guests can decide to change rooms then and there. A train went by at 1045 pm and again at 300 am. We may have heard it at the front but not to the same loudness as at the back. It was dreadful. Thirdly, at approximately 230am in the morning an obnoxious guest in a red pick-up truck started their vehicle and sat there for ten minutes blasting extremely loud music that woke us from our sleep. (This is the same vehicle that checked in around 600 pm and played the same loud music for all to hear while they unpacked and entered the building….)They then left and returned some 15 minutes later and the same thing….I called the front desk on both occasions to report but nobody picked up the call. Then at about 430 am the owners of the same vehicle kept unlocking and locking their vehicle with their fob for another annoying 10-15 minutes….This all occurred in YOUR parking lot. Where is your sense of responsibility you owe your guests? May I also suggest that your coffee station be made available 24/7 outside the breakfast area by the front desk. It wasn’t a COvID distancing friendly time. Too many people bunched around. For those who just want a coffee having to line up in the breakfast line and wait until the end to get coffee is wrong. This was the worst night’s sleep we have ever had in a hotel. We feel exhausted for our drive to Palm Springs and feel we wasted points on this uncomfortable experience. We await your reply.

Driving from the Bay Area to Death Valley, we decided to stay one night at this Marriott to break up the drive. It also allowed us to redeem a Marriott e-certificate. In our experience sometimes using an e-certificate gets you the most modest accommodation available. This was not the case here. Consistent with our profile we were given a room on the 8th floor looking south toward the mountains. Granted we were also looking over the back parking lot but we believe that was better than overlooking the busy street in front of the hotel. We found the room to be well appointed and up-to-date. We were frankly a little surprised given other reviewers more critical comments. We admit we were probably fortunate that there were no events at the adjacent convention center so things were probably a little slow in the hotel anyway. Regardless, we were delighted to have registration allow us an early check-in (at 2:00 pm). It allowed us enough time to explore the city a little before going out to dinner. Self-parking, at no charge no less, was convenient and allowed us easy access into the hotel right near the elevators. It was a perfect layover experience.

I'd give the hotel a 5 star rating if it weren't for the horrific experience checking in. The woman was beyond rude-sarcastic, insulting, demeaning. I have never (thank goodness) been treated in such an unacceptable manner. I got the card for the GM's email and sent in detail my experience. To date-I've not heard a response. If it was received, another layer of disappointment. If it went to spam that's understandable. I'm happy to relate this to management-if they're interested. The hotel itself is a bit dated. But we found it clean, comfortable and quiet. The evening social was a complete dinner-meatloaf, mashed potatoes, corn, salad, rolls and wine or beer. It was delicious! Breakfast the next morning was good as well. Freshly made breakfast sandwiches, yogurt parfaits, etc. I commend the hardworking kitchen staff for their work. Other reviews mentioned a negative location. We did not find this to be true. A few miles from the freeway and off a main road. We felt as safe as one can be. Again-the rating would be much higher if not for one individual who made quite a negative impression. Sad.

I booked a two-night stay through TripAdvisor at the Hampton Inn when I arrived before I checked in, I looked on my phone dispatch app and noticed that the two-day stay had been changed to a five hour stay the staff at Hampton Inn accommodated and adjusted my stay to reflect the time that I had before loading the truck, I explained this to the staff at TripAdvisor and they also were very professional and adjusted my stay from a two night into a one night stay, and refunded back to my account in about twelve hours. I will book again through TripAdvisor, very people orientated. Adolph,W.

First room on 6/20/22 rm# 230 was terrible I already up loaded pictures (dark...loud... scary... dirty)... I asked to be switched to another room... and the front desk clerk said there aren't anymore available rooms left... so I tried to check out the same day that I checked in 6/20/22.... then the man at the front desk told me they have a room available all of a sudden! So I stayed and rm #221 ways much better but I did check out the next day early morning 6/21/22 but I was paid up until 6/24/22.... today is 7/1/22 and I have yet to be refunded my money for the rest of the days back... they only refunded me my $100 deposit... I am a traveling nurse and I felt so much bias to where I would never recommend or stay there ever again... I ended up staying at another wyndham establishment which was basic but way better! I called for a whole week straight to ask for my refund that I paid for the whole week... they told me I had to talk to a manager but none has ever called me back or wasn't in when I called!

Breakfast is ok, the front desk is very good, the sofa is a bed, the sound insulation is not good

The breakfast was good, the facilities were relatively new, there were plenty of parking spaces at the door, there were several gas stations around, and there were few people in the neighborhood. It was a quiet little city with a good attitude at the front desk.
