Spacious suite in a charming inn
We love Cambria and we are so happy that we found this charming inn for a reasonable price. Close to everything, quiet, clean, and very roomy. The complimentary happy hour was so nice, with tasty cocktail specials and appetizers. We will come back here on our next trip to Cambria.

Loved our stay! Highly recommend!
This is an older 2 story hotel right on Main Street in downtown Cambria. Our room was a suite with a king sized bed. A microwave, mini fridge, and a pour-over coffee setup (Great idea!!). There was also an electric fireplace which helped take the chill off and provided ambiance. We were on the 2nd floor, which was good because this IS an older hotel and you would here heavy walkers if you're on the first floor. Our room looked down on backside of the hotel which has a lovely patio area and large gas firepit with festive lighting. Great free happy hour with craft cocktails and a snack in a cozy reception area. We were in walking distance to many great restaurants. Staff was friendly and welcoming.

Very nice hotel but becoming a bit outdated
We have family in Cambria and stay at the Rigdon House 80% of the time when visiting. Its a quaint B&B type hotel, quietly tucked in a corner off main street, so its within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants. We've stayed there 6x the past 2+ years and love it. The staff is friendly and attentive.
That said, the rooms are becoming a little outdated and in need of an upgrade. The beds are a little too soft and the furniture is wearing out and becoming uncomfortable. Our shower barely had enough water pressure to completely rinse after soap and shampoo. And one of our bathroom sinks was clogged and drained slowly. Mind you, it didn't ruin our stay (the room was clean and attended to daily) but its a bit like your own home that hasn't been painted or upgraded the past 20-years. Sooner or later, everything wears out and you need to invest to upgrade.
We still recommend staying there as the rates are very competitive compared to other options close by.

Highway 1 stop
Above our expectations. Was more like an air BnB . Large living / bed room area w mini fridge/ microwave. Big bathroom. Clean clean clean. It had a vintage feel. So Cool. Large outdoor patio suitable for wedding parties/ grad parties. Large gas fire ring. Very cozy. Highly recommended.
