TOGETHER WITH INSIDE HOTELS

Hotels We Love: Padre Hotel

Originally opened in 1928, the Spanish Colonial Revival-style Padre Hotel is housed in Bakersfield's most iconic building. The city’s only four-diamond hotel, this historic landmark offers a boutique vibe along with plentiful gussied-up tributes to Bakersfield's farming culture. It’s creative and fun—a glowing neon sign crowns the roof, and even the wallpaper is adorned with cowboy hats, farm implements, and oil derricks. With its prime location in the heart of downtown and a restaurant on site, the Padre Hotel is the perfect place to hang your cowboy hat after exploring the city's rich history and cultural attractions.
