Hotel Details
2352 S 4th Street, El Centro, California 92243-6002 United States

Hotel Overview

In the Imperial Valley farm country of El Centro, California, the Best Western El Centro Inn sits about fourteen miles north of the Mexican border, below sea level in the southeastern desert.

Spacious rooms with free Wi-Fi and a fridge make a comfortable desert base, with the border crossing at Calexico and the regional airport close by. Winter sun draws snowbirds and pilots alike, and a pool and free internet round out the desert stay. The fairgrounds and downtown sit close by, and the date farms and citrus groves of the valley spread around.

El Centro anchors a green valley of winter vegetables ringed by desert, the vast Imperial Sand Dunes at Glamis draw off-roaders to the east, the receding shoreline and vast birdlife of the Salton Sea lie to the north for boating and birding, and Mexicali's markets sit just over the line. Winter air shows draw crowds to the valley skies.
