Seaway Inn

Great location. Old hotel that has been modernized and upgraded. Really comfortable. Fun wallpaper in the bathroom. Easy to walk anywhere by the pier.

What a great location! It’s super clean because it’s just been remodeled

It was a marvelous place to stay the night

Friendly and helpful staff. Cute room. Excellent location. All in all, a good value. It is In the right place for a walk to the boardwalk or a walk along the promenade to watch the surfers.

I've been staying at the Seaway Inn for many many years. On my recent visit, I experienced a problem with a dog barking in the adjacent room to where I was staying. The current residents had left the dog unattended . Once I alerted staff, they took action immediately, attempting to reach the folks staying in the room..... when all was done and settled. The staff was quick, efficient, reasonable, helpful, and addressed the problem as soon as the current residents reappeared. Other things do consider when staying at the Seaway is proximity to the wharf, the pier, numerous restaurants, and even surfing if you so desire. Once again, thanks again to the staff at the Seaway.

Our family stayed here over Fourth of July weekend and this was a great central spot to explore Santa Cruz. It is near the Boardwalk, but away from the more rundown hotels and areas. Seaway Inn is right across the street from The Dream Inn, and we stayed in the ocean view family room which had nice open windows with a birds-eye view of the Boardwalk, beach and Santa Cruz Pier. The hotel stay was very pleasant and having free parking while staying in the Santa Cruz area is quite appreciated. It costs quite a bit of money to park anywhere near the Boardwalk. The hotel is a short 5-8 minute walk to the Boardwalk. Our family of 5 slept comfortably here with two Queen beds and a sofa/pull out futon for my 8-year-old son. Check in was easy, the reception employees were both extremely polite and welcoming. If there is not parking in the hotels front lot, they allow guests to park in the back lot shared with other hotels. We never had to park far while staying. Only reason, I didn’t give 5 stars is that the bathroom could use some updates or extra cleaning, but overall it was not of huge importance to us. The location, proximity to Boardwalk and pier, view from the room, free parking and friendly staff make this place a big win if staying in the Santa Cruz area!
