Melanie
Great place in Merced. I love the modern/forestry decor throughout the hotel and each room has a slightly different wallpaper/paint design, very cute. We ate once at Rainbird and were very happy for a nice menu and good food/cocktails. On our second time around, the courtyard was closed. Probably too hot that day, but we had drinks at the Native Son and the ambiance was festive. We also tried the nearby hifi wine bar next door. Great wine discoveries! The hotel is a perfect stop if in that area!
Lisette
Beds were comfortable and room was clean. Great price deal. The staff were attentive, nice and friendly. We could hear the train and people cruising driving by at night but it didn’t bother us.
Edgar
Great pet friendly hotel service ,great stay clean and updated rooms . Hallway was pretty stench it might come from the pet friendly facility . Was hoping to get the main street view but for some reason we got no view . That was my only complaint since my reservation had main street view .
Ashutosh
They don’t maintain proper records of booking, extremely unhelpful
Richard
I love staying in this historic hotel on my way to Yosemite.
Wayne
It’s a wonderful hotel and I stay here often. Rates are reasonable, especially for a nice downtown hotel that’s a short walk from theaters and restaurants. The only downside is that the parking garage is across an alley, though it seems safe and valet parking is available for $15. I park myself in good weather, and use the valet during inclement weather.
Carlos
Had an amazing time. Definitely going to stay again.
Valeria
My experience at El Cap Hotel was mixed. My first interaction with the front desk during check-in was not very pleasant. The gentleman assisting me was very abrasive and short-tempered, and he seemed to have difficulty locating my reservation. I was questioned about when I had booked my stay, even though the reservation had been made more than two weeks in advance. Unfortunately, I was not provided with any information about the hotel’s amenities or the credit I had available for drinks. Because I was unaware of the credit, I ended up spending money that I otherwise could have used the included credit toward.
The hotel itself is very aesthetically pleasing and clean, and the location is excellent, you can walk to pretty much everything. However, the walls are extremely thin. I could hear the guest next door, the person staying above me, and virtually every noise coming from the street, which made it difficult to get a peaceful night’s sleep.
Overall, the hotel is beautiful and in a great location, but the noise level and my initial experience with the front desk significantly impacted my stay.

Kathleen
Beautiful hotel. Love how there are restaurants and a lounge. Room was nice, only thing was the outside noise. We can hear cars and the train.
Jenny
Amazing hotel for an amazing price. Super well designed with hip touches and very spacious modern rooms. Only did 4 stars because we felt like the beds were kind of uncomfortable and weirdly loud mattresses getting in and out.
Karen
Very thoughtful amenities. Room was very comfortable and staff was extremely helpful and friendly

Hotel is MAJESTIC and the staff are even more special! Gorgeous place, tremendous food, clean and modern rooms, and the staff will do everything to make your stay perfect. 5 Stars falls short.
Dale
The staff was great and the room was really neat and clean. There’s a nice restaurant right downstairs.
Glen
This dog friendly hotel is our favorite spot to stay in Merced. Located in a nice part of town, with great restaurants onsite and features indoor and outdoor seating.
Candace
Always a great stay at El Capitan. Best hotel in the area if you’re looking for a comfortable stay with an updated feel. Coffee shop is great and love the downtown vibe
Eric
It was a quite clean centrally located place would definitely stay here again
Maria
Great room.
Bill
Charming for sure, record player and rotary phone are fun. Hotel staff was not very knowledgeable about the town. Did not know where buses went and did not have recommendations for food outside of hotel. Noise from trains def something to consider, but they do give you earplugs which was nice.
MICHAEL
Great value
Joshua
Everything was excellent!
Carlos
The room was super clean and the staff were awesome. I went up to Yosemite and they let me check in at 10 PM the day I reserved. The bed was super comfy and they had a nice big TV in the suite. There’s a nice bar in the lobby and a restaurant to order food from. I would totally recommend and would go again in the future. Also, the AC works super good. It could cool down the room in like five minutes.
Krzysztof
Much better than a typical hotel. Stayed there on the way to Yosemite National Park. The restaurant Rainbird was quite good, had food (lunch menu) Avocado Toast and Ancient Grain Bowl. Portions were large, but fresh ingredients. Located in downtown, so walkable distance to coffee shops. The decor is fantastic. The first floor has lots of spots to sit (including conference rooms) and courtyard.
Paola
We loved the hotel! Beautiful, clean, staff are so kind. We stayed with our Maltese & Yorkie and it was perfect!!

Martha
Beautiful new hotel in downtown, walking distance to numerous shops & restaurants. Friendly staff - would definitely stay again!
Kim

Yien
Love the clean and spacious room and style! Love that it’s close to everything like restaurants and bars. Definitely recommend it.
Jensen
Places to work and great cafe - everything is nice.
Rose
room was small but nice. Duvet cover was dirty, and robe had been used and was dirty, but otherwise room was nice
Janice
Stylish (not expensive materials). Restaurant and café are excellent which operate long hours, within hotel. Gym with nicely set ups. Down side is close to rail, can hear train noise and horns. Main street can be noisy at night too. Bathroom door designed to open outward so has to be shut close, less child friendly. Shower drain pan is dark so it is easy to see hair left over from previous customer. But over all is clean. Parking is next building, which is similar to free parking on site.
Guadalupe
It was a great stay
Andrea M
I literally changed my travel plans so I could stay here again 🌟 love love
Connie
Well decorated boutique hotel with lots to do within walking distance. Kids appreciated the Manzier ( games in front, good food, beautiful vintage theater setting ) close by Sky Zone. And, so many great food options. Thank you EL CAPITIAN staff for the hospitality & Nectar coffee crew, You rock!

I rented a king suite for my sister and her husband for their wedding day and it was a magnificent room. The only issue I had was looking for the ice machine.

Very good
Shannon
Comfortable stay, clean room, lovely staff!
Veronica
this is one of my favorite places to stay at when I visit my family in Merced. It’s the perfect little boutique hotel. The patio has a little bar. You can sit at during their cocktail hour. Would recommend for anyone that’s looking for a cozy, but elegant vibe that reflects Yosemite California.
christopher
great staff , very courteous and friendly, from checkin to check out always a great experience. Love this hotel and everything about it. Great location and everything is within walking distance.
chris
We've stayed here several times. We like the common space, staff, resturant, cafe, fitness room (tho could use some maintenance, the water cooler was leaking). Best to be had in a hotel in Merced. So why not 5 stars?
First is the industrial grade matress covers. They squeak and don't breath so sleep comfort isn't all that great. The hotel could do something about this as we don't find this in other hotels.
Second, Merced suffers from a culture that displays it's vitality through straight pipes and harleys ripping through down town well after midnight, at it's worst on Saturday. There's also a train that runs often through town and doesn't hesitate to use it's whistle. If loud noise is an issue for you, your only hope is to insist on a room facing the alley (Anne Lane?) behind the hotel.

I wanted to love this place and I did love the restaurant downstairs and the coffee shop and the location but the staff was in their 20's when I was there and though they were polite, some of them didn't seem terribly concerned about the lack of parking issues with a full car of stuff and also a very crazy slippery shower. I won't put the photos but I'm a fit, athletic person and had trouble staying upright. Had to put the bathmat inside of the shower so that my mother wouldn't fall.
Also the hot water kettle was a bit possessed and kept beeping at us unless we unplugged it. Also VERY noisy on the weekends with rooms facing the main boulevard.

Lovely hotel, Great place to stay. Clean, Excellent experience
Lauren
Great hotel! Room was great and comfy. Decor was really nice. Nice helpful staff. Valet service was easy and very reasonably priced. The restaurant in the lobby was AWESOME. Had a really terrific dinner made to go and I ate in my room because I was preparing for a backpacking adventure in Yosemite and it was going to take some time to get my pack set up. Also the hotel restaurant seemed pretty popular on a weekend so I would recommend reservations if you are going! The ONLY complaint I have about the El Capitan hotel is the noise at night. Which I suspect they are aware of because there was a small pack of earplugs left on the bedside table. While I don't blame the hotel, and know they can't control the loud music, screeching tires, and sirens outside on the streets on a weekend night, it was still quite loud even with the earplugs. Since I had planned to go to bed early and get up at 4am to head towards the park, this was frustrating to not get a good night's sleep before doing a multi-day hike. If you are a light sleeper, please be aware noise \"may\" be a thing here. I say \"may\" because who knows maybe it's only crazy like that on a weekend. I stayed on a Saturday night. Other than the noise, I would give this place 5/5.
Yvette
Clean and easy to check in and out

It was an amazing stay. Very clean and accommodating!!
Martin
Location was ideal, room was clean and orderly, service was good.
The room lacked adequate lighting and had problem with AC that a fan was needed to feel comfortable while sleeping.
The AC was set to 67 but the temp was reading and felt like 72. Maintenance confirmed that the temp coming out of vent was around 49°. We were there for 2 days.
This was our second visit to this establishment.

King size bed, super comfortable with a feel good comforter to sleep cool over night. Rooms amenities-valet for $15 a day, instant coffee, tv with Netflix, WiFi, safe with combination, stand up shower, soaps and shampoos included and even came with fancy robes. Perfectly located in the heart of downtown Merced, CA. Fair prices for upscale renovated rooms and hotel grounds. Will definitely book again here in the future.
Dayna
My only complaint is that we couldn’t stay longer.
sonia
they were nice, the room was ok we love the decorations so modern the only thing we did not like was the carpeting could not tell if it was duty or if it was the painting on it
overall it is a very nice hotel

amazing hotel, amazing staff great location everything you need for visiting Merced area
Jorge
The shower was weird. It did not have a door to enclose the shower space. Water went all over the bathroom floor outside the shower space. There was no drain either, so, the water that went outside the shower space had to air dry or we had to use towels. It's a slipping hazard, especially for my pregnant wife.
Francesca
Wonderful place to stay! In a good location and staff were
Angela
Beautiful hotel, incredibly friendly staff, excellent dining.
Tina
The first room I got, the toilet was having a hard time flushing, which caused clogging. The staff was very helpful and was able to swap me to a new room. Thank you!
Virdis
Second stay at property. Great service and staff.
The only thing I would mention to people not aware of the area is that you do hear motorcycles early evening. In both stays they provide ear plugs in the room which is nice. I also like that there is carbonated water available at the water station on the 3rd floor. Bring a water bottle to take advantage.
I highly recommend staying here if you're in Merced. Will stay here in a heartbeat if I am ever in Merced

It is actually as nice as the photos I'd seen online. I appreciate they have it refurbed or maintained true to it's time of 1936. The honeycomb tiles are beautiful.
Gonzalo
Best place in town
George
Nice restaurant within the property. Very friendly staff. Able to accommodate our large group for dinner
Nicholas
Clean and comfortable room and beds. Only thing was the low water pressure to the shower 3/10 for that amenity. Below average. Rest of the room was very clean and nice.
Maria
Food is great. Staff are friendly. Rooms are clean. Bed is perfect.
Leo
I really liked the property, it is really clean and well kept up. The rooms are well set up and very comfortable. The only negative is the parking situation, sometimes it was hard to find a parking space.
VITO
Nice, well kept hotel. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Native Son is a great place to grab a quick cup of coffee and the Rainbird restaurant has excellent food. Ate breakfast and dinner there and both were amazing.
John
Jessica, Maria, Genesis and Josiah all did an absolutely excellent job, very impressed by front desk, clean room, feels like a steal for the price offered on Expedia so I strongly recommend they keep it the same to attract business because they landed mine in the future easily should I ever return to Merced. I had no complaints whatsoever and I’ve worked in hotels 9 years before I ended up doing other work. Best place I ever stayed at (for the price)
Leopld

We stayed a couple of days in Main Street King room. Hotel was great. For this stay we took Amtrak which is a 15 minute walk to hotel. Front desk staff was very welcoming. Overall we enjoyed everything and will be back for our daughter's graduation from UC Merced soon.

El Capitan is a gem! Vintage hotel feel with all modern amenities. This was our third stay at El Capitan!

This was my second three night stay at the El Capitan. It is an excellent hotel with an excellent restaurant & staff. There is not much to do in Merced. Nonetheless, this hotel has become a favored place to go to read, write, & enjoy a nice stay.

Had a great stay with family in a dual queen room. Nice clean and comfortable. Staff was very helpful and polite. Native Son restaurant/cafe/bar was delicious for breakfast. I would stay again.
Jorge
Great for staycations especially after a show downtown.
Gerald
This was the noisiest room I've ever stayed in in my life (I'm 72). There were loud cars and Harley's driving by all night. Also the train kept going by all night. (with lot's of horn). The bathroom was so small there was no room to put any toiletries down. I don't know if it was just my room or if they're all like this. I wouldn't stay there again if THEY paid ME.
