232 W 5th Street, Eureka, California 95501-0221 United States

Hotel Overview

Eureka looks out over Humboldt Bay on California's far north coast, a Victorian seaport of painted gingerbread houses, working docks, and the redwoods just beyond. The Best Western Plus Humboldt Bay Inn makes a comfortable base in Eureka, California, close to Old Town, the boardwalk, the bay, and the redwood parks of the North Coast.

Steps from Humboldt Bay and the Victorian streets of Old Town, the hotel makes an easy coastal base. A free breakfast opens the morning, while rooms feature a flat-screen TV, microwave, and refrigerator. Guests can relax in the hotel's oasis-like outdoor pool and recreation area, a peaceful retreat with tropical landscaping that feels worlds away from the bustle of town. Free parking sits right outside. The old-growth groves of Redwood National and State Parks rise just north of Eureka along the coast, while Sequoia Park, with its small zoo and grove of coast redwoods, sits right in the middle of Eureka.

Redwoods and the bay, Old Town's galleries, and the wild North Coast all sit close by. Settle in, unwind by the pool, and let the coast set the pace.
