Inn Paradiso

This Inn was about a hundred dollars a night more than than the two fancy, chain hotels, but it was worth the difference. The manager, Tamara, contacted me by text earlier in the day to find out if there were anything special I needed – something i have never experienced before. The Inn is located in the country but still a close two miles to town – so you can enjoy the sounds and views of being out of town but enjoy the close proximity of downtown restaurants. The estate is large with lovely trees and landscaping and a large pool (non-​heated but we swam in the late afternoon and it was just perfect). Our room was spacious and had a jacuzzi as well as an extra large shower. The bed was comfortable. We had a two balcony’s – one with a view of the hills outside and another with a view of the Great Room inside, which is a common area. We had a coffee press with great coffee set up to go and some complimentary pistachios and butter brickle. Breakfast was outstanding – tasty, healthy and all organic. We chose this place partly because the breakfast is so good and vegetarian – if you want steak and bacon and that matters to you, go somewhere else. Both breakfasts were filling, tasty, and homemade – something you never get with your big hotel «breakfasts» in America. There is a huge common room that is beautiful architecturally and quite comfortable. I will come again when I want a special treat.

Phenomenal experience this weekend at the Inn Paradiso. The grounds are beautiful, full of fun and interesting art, the breakfasts are so special, with exciting organic ingredients and a very talented chef/​property manager. We felt very welcome and relaxed.
The Inn is just a bit out of town, Über was very easy to use to get around town each day. The pool is unheated and refreshing. Definitely recommend.

We stayed 3 nights in the Maria Sabina room and had a relaxing, wonderful stay. This unique inn off the beaten path is a true gem. The innkeeper, Tamara, makes you feel right at home and her fabulous breakfasts each morning are pampering and delicious. This will definitely be our go-​to place whenever we are back in this area.

This place is so dreamy!
My husband and I stayed here for two nights (far too few) on our Central Coast mini-​honeymoon last month, and it was the perfect place to decompress, thanks to the idyllic hilltop setting, in-​room Jacuzzi tub in our suite, luxury linens and comfortable bed, and all of the small details from the photography, carefully chosen books, quality toiletries, and more.
Tamara, the inn-​keeper, was the perfect hostess. She makes incredible and healthy breakfasts, with some ingredients from the gardens, and even though she is new to the area is very helpful with suggestions on where to go and what to do. She even went out of her way to ship us my husband’s jacket and some shirts which he left in the armoire, which we really appreciated.
When booking I debated between which room to stay in because they all looked beautiful, but I chose the Maria Sabina Suite and loved it. The aforementioned Jacuzzi tub looked out onto a small wrought-​iron balcony overlooking a gorgeous Oak tree. The bed was hard to pull myself away from in the morning, and the hammock on the balcony was so relaxing that I fell asleep mid-​afternoon, something I rarely do.
I’m never planning to get married again, but I am certainly intending to return to Inn Paradiso for special occasions, or when in need of a getaway.

The Inn keeper Tamara is wonderful.

This is truly a wonderful place. We really enjoyed our stay here. We travel a lot and are generally hard to please and have very high standards but we absolutely loved it. The host Tamara was so gracious and took great care of us. She made the most amazing and hearty all organic breakfast for us each morning with herbs from the property garden. The room was very spacious and very comfortable with great views of the property. The pools is beautiful, this place looks much more beautiful in person than the photos on their website. It feels secluded but is also close to town. Will definitely go back. My new favorite place in Paso Robles.

Overall a lovely stay… Started with some concerns about no hot water (new heater being installed) but was resolved before bedtime. Rooms are fresh and well designed. Breakfast was always creative and healthy.

This places is heaven on Earth! I cannot recommend it highly enough. Tanner and Colleen are absolutely fantastic and made us feel like long-​lost friends we hadn’t seen in years. The property is gorgeous, the inn is intimate and secluded, and the rooms are spacious, luxurious, and very well kept. We had both breakfast and dinner at the inn and it was incredible, as was the company. Just a wonderful hidden gem, and we won’t be staying anywhere else on trips to Paso in the future.

Paradiso is exactly that.
Imagine a rustic house (or series of buildings) built by Gaudi and you get the idea of why this place is special. Art, mid century furnishings, lots of little corners to read, relax and decompress. A truly great place for a romantic getaway.. We had a lovely large room with spa tub, fireplace and four poster bed. Lots of attention to detail and nice touches. Lovely pool. A great — great room with mid century furnishings. Excellent breakfast and a knowledgeable and welcoming host. You could spend the weekend here and just phone in for the wine :) There are only 4 rooms — hard to think there is anywhere better in the area.

I would definitely recommend Inn Paradiso, especially for a special, romantic getaway. Beautiful room, wonderful breakfast, friendly, helpful hosts. I was the only one using the pool while we were there. It was lovely, I couldn’t reach the bottom! I’d go back in a heartbeat!

How can I even begin to describe how great this place is? First of all, I’m putting it under a cone of invisibility so I can stay there whenever I want because you won’t be able to find it. Second of all, the property is gorgeous — if you’re into mid-​century design that’s warm and real then you’ll love it. Finally the inn keepers Tanner and Colleen are the jam. Not only are they cool and nice and helpful, they cook like rock stars. They make breakfast every morning and it’s fantastic. World’s best pancake and it was good for me – how can I even? And you can hire them to cook dinner for you at the inn beside a crackling fire. We were so happy with our experience we booked July 4^th weekend before we even left.

This is hands down THE BEST place to stay in Paso Robles. Not only is the property absolutely amazing, but the inn keepers, Colleen & Tanner were true gems. They were so gracious, knowledgeable and accommodating. Lots of attention to details. The breakfast was locally sourced, and made with LOVE.
The owner, Steve is also gracious and welcoming, his eye for furniture is not to be missed. The entire place was adorned with magical pieces from near and far, adding a unique mysticism to the place.
The rooms were relaxing and well equipped with everything you would ever need. The coffee is absolutely amazing, and Tanner made sure we had a fresh cup waiting outside our room in the morning.
This is a must when staying in Paso Robles, there is nothing else like it.

I am loathe to write a review of a place I have never been to, a review that is based on an experience that never got passed the booking phase, but I need to share it nonetheless.
I booked a weekend at the end of September, based on a recommendation from a friend. The woman who took my reservation is Amber, and she never told of their cancellation policy at the time of booking. In addition to that, their cancellation policy is not listed on their website, nor did I ever receive the confirmation email they claimed they sent (they mistyped the email address in their system).
So when it came time to unfortunately have to cancel the reservation due to work, I called five days before our reservation, thinking that was more than sufficient. The owner Dawna told me at that time that they had a 14 day cancellation policy but since they were going through «managerial problems» at the time of my booking, she would give me a full refund.
I was not given any refund.
And now Dawna is in Mexico and the new manager, Tanner, says I was never promised a refund (as per their booking notes and some correspondence between him and her). He says he has to follow policy, period, despite the fact that I am fully certain I was promised differently due to bad management at the time of booking.
Now this is the kicker: During our correspondence about why the credit wasn’t given, Tanner sent me a copy of the confirmation letter that was supposedly sent to me when I booked the room. I pointed out to him that AMBER HAD ENTERED THE WRONG EMAIL ADDRESS — the reason I never was made aware of their cancellation policy — and STILL they will not acknowledge that this is their mistake, not mine, and he will not refund me the $ 763. All he has offered is a credit for ONE night, not the two that I already paid for at the time of the booking. I tried to follow up a couple times and they have ignored me.
I’m sure the place is gorgeous, and that if you go you will love it, but now I don’t even want to use the one night’s credit because the whole experience has left such a bad taste in my mouth. I don’t want to go out of obligation; I want to go with a good feeling in my heart. I want to be as excited as I was at the time when I initially made the reservation.
I am thoroughly dismayed and disappointed at how this whole situation was handled. I don’t know why they didn’t just own up to their mistake and refund me the full amount, or give two night’s stay. They have handled this situation so incredibly poorly and it’s a real shame. Hopefully their customer service has improved since this happened. Hopefully they will note their cancellation policy on their website. Hopefully they will honor their promises. Hopefully…
If you need to cancel — make sure to do it 14 days in advance, or else…

My first review ever and it’s for inn paradiso. Magical, relaxing, serene, beautiful, organic, clean and well maintained. I promise you will not regret staying here. Pictures do not do justice to this place! Colleen and Tanner were so sweet and accommodating. We went there for my boyfriends birthday and we both decided that this will be our getaway spot from now on. can’t wait to go back! By the way Colleen made us a yummy lemon rosemary cheesecake that was beyond amazing
Don’t think twice. book it and go!

Spacious, interesting, luxurious, romantic, extraordinary… only touch the surface of this unusual place. Photos and descriptions do not do it justice! You have to experience it for yourself. The inn-​keepers were gracious and accommodating, making delicious locally sourced, organic dishes. The bath products were heavenly. I loved opening the windows and doors to feel like I was outside, living in the tops of the oak trees. Close to town, yet private and secretive. Tanner, one of the innkeepers, will even be your taxi into town or for wine tasting. His advice on what wineries to try was spot-​on!
I would definitely stay there again!

That s the best place ever !!! My girlfriend and i spend a really good time, can t be more romantic with the nice smelly garden, the room with jacousi, the lounge outside with tequila tasting, the fire place in a cold weather with a glass of wine and to finish the experience with a very good breakfast… picture doesnt look as good as it is … Kind of don t want to say to many good things, want to have place available for next time !!! ;)

Hands down one of the best, romantic, relaxing retreats ever! Exactly what is needed for the escape from the hectic ins and outs of everyday stress. As a fan of minimal design coupled with rustic design/​charm and utter comfort these folks know how to do it.
Amber, Steve, and the rest of the staff were there when you needed them, and know exactly what people crave when they want to get away for a quiet, über-​relaxing time: organic breakfast, in-​room jacuzzi bath plus ginormous, beautiful shower (I would stay in the Carlo Molino room again in a minute), in-​room french press coffee (as if they knew that i cant face the day without a cup first thing in the morning!), hammock, pool, cozy deck seating perfect for bringing dinner back from town, and boutique tequila toast per arrival.
Now I just need it to be December so we can go back and use the fireplace and cozy up with some scotch in the main living room… filled with a great library, coffee table books, and a taxidermied bobcat!
A must.
