Blinking Light Kept me up All Night
The hotel is clean, service was great, and the environment is really cool. The thing that nearly ruined the trip was a large blinking light from a building behind my room. The blackout curtains didn’t cover the entire wall so the flashing light was visible the entire night. I should have asked to be moved to another room but already had my stuff unpacked and spread everywhere. Upon checkout, I let the concierge know. They apologized but said they had no control over it. Make sure your room doesn’t overlook the post office/industrial buildings.

Lovely
What a lovely boutique hotel. I'm glad I decided to stay here rather than some chain hotel. The service was just top notch. Staff greeted me no matter where I was on the property. The valet is exceptional and considering how expensive it can be in larger cities it was so economical and swift and the valets were great to chat with while waiting for my rental. The breakfast I had one morning was yummy as well. The decor of the building was a nice histiric feel and the rooms were nice too. Loved the bathroom with the Black tile and the shower was unique. I wish I had more time to eat at the bar downstairs or check out the roof top (saw it from my room and it looked very inviting) Room wasn't big but was just right. If I have a reason to return to Bakersfield I plan to stay there.

Beautiful rooms, decor, size, all of it! Great staff as well. The only downside was that we stayed over on Saturday evening and there was a lot of noise from a bar nearby.

8/10 Very good

This hotel is a very old property recently completely renovated in a black, white, and gold art-deco style. It's kind of over the top but also original, and you can't fault it for aiming to please! Our room had a great city view and was well appointed. The shower was a dark-gray stone which seemed a bit like showering in a closet, but otherwise the bathroom was generally luxe. The front-desk staff were super-helpful and friendly, and all staff seemed to be happy to be working at the Padre and proud of its bold new identity. The only disappointments were that the rooftop restaurant/bar was closed for renovations, and the only other place to eat/drink in the hotel (Brimstone, a lobby-level sports-bar-type place) closed promptly at 9pm. There isn't much around the hotel, but downtown Bakersfield is generally not a super vibrant place. We'd stay here again and hope it succeeds in leading a return of style and energy to a city that has a really interesting history, as the hotel itself personifies.

Staff and room more wonderful. Nice lounge area in the lobby. For a pet friendly hotel it was awful because there's no place for your pet to relieve themself on-site or nearby. No on-site parking.
