Scene
High-end feel with a heavy Tuscan theme
The four-story hotel sits off the freeway, and the large sign detracts some from the luxuriousness of the Tuscan villa-style design, with ochre walls. The atmosphere is a little higher-end than the nearby chain properties, with lots of marble and velvet banquettes, though the thick columns, wrought-iron chandeliers, and stone in the lobby give it a bit of a theme park-esque feel. The Enoteca restaurant has a slightly more modern Tuscan look, with lots of autumn golds and oranges, and dark woods. An octagonal-shaped outdoor pool is surrounded by bright yellow loungers and a tall stone fireplace. The hotel is geared toward singles and couples on romantic getaways.
Location
Right off the freeway, a short drive to vineyards
La Bellasera is located right off Highway 101, on a strip with other motels and hotels, along with chain restaurants, including an Applebee’s, about a half-mile south. It’s convenient to the area’s wineries, some of which are within a five-minute drive. It’s also a five- to 10-minute drive to downtown Paso Robles. Nearby non-winery attractions include Hearst Castle, which is a 40-minute drive. Nearby airports include Paso Robles Municipal Airport, which is a 15-minute drive, and San Luis Obispo County Airport, which is a 35-minute drive. San Jose International Airport is about two hours and 40 minutes by car.
Rooms
Large rooms with sophisticated decor, some with whirlpool tubs and fireplaces
Each of the hotel’s 60 rooms is spacious, with a sophisticated black, white, and gray color scheme. All rooms have small seating areas with couches upholstered in plush fabrics, and velvety armchairs and decorative pillows. Bathrooms are similarly spacious, with long marble-topped vanities and glass-doored stall showers. All rooms have flat-screen TVs with pay-per-view movies, minibars and separate mini fridges, wet bars, tea and coffee facilities, safes, irons and ironing boards, robes, and hairdryers. Each room has a small computer, and free Wi-Fi is available. Some rooms have whirlpool tubs framed by thick columns, with vineyard murals as backdrops, and stone fireplaces. Suites with kitchenettes are available. Rooms overlooking the parking lot still include views of the countryside in the distance. Guests may want to request west-facing rooms to avoid views of the freeway.
