Where to stay in San Luis Obispo

Downtown San Luis Obispo
City centre San Luis Obispo blends historic charm with modern energy around its iconic 1772 Mission. Wander pedestrian-friendly streets lined with well-preserved Victorian buildings and boutique shops. Thursday's farmers' market transforms the area into a lively festival of local produce, artisanal foods, and street performers. The mission's adobe walls and red tile roofs anchor this walkable district where California history meets college-town vibes. Visitors can explore art galleries, sip Central Coast wines, or simply relax in Mission Plaza along San Luis Obispo Creek.

Railroad District
The Railway District blends industrial charm with artistic energy in San Luis Obispo's creative hub. Historic brick warehouses now house galleries, studios, and craft breweries where train whistles once dominated. The restored Railway Museum showcases vintage locomotives that celebrate the area's heritage. Wander through this walkable area to discover local artwork against exposed brick walls. Farm-to-table restaurants and artisanal coffee shops occupy converted spaces with industrial-chic aesthetics. Colourful murals and the occasional train whistle create a uniquely authentic atmosphere for art enthusiasts.

Foothill
Foothill offers a peaceful residential retreat next to California Polytechnic State University. This quiet area features tree-lined streets and modest homes away from city centre bustle. You'll experience authentic local life in a university community setting. Student apartments and rental houses provide budget-friendly accommodation options during academic breaks. Travellers visiting campus events or students will appreciate the convenient location. The area offers limited dining and shopping but provides easy access to Cal Poly's facilities and nearby mountain hiking trails.
Old Town Historic District
Step into the historic heart of San Luis Obispo, where Spanish colonial charm meets modern California living. The Old Town Historic District centers around the iconic 1772 Mission with its white adobe walls and red tile roof. Brick-lined pavements lead to vibrant shops, farm-to-table restaurants, and peaceful Mission Plaza. Thursday evenings transform the district with the popular farmers' market featuring live music and local food vendors. History buffs will appreciate the SLO History Museum housed in the 1905 Carnegie Library. The pedestrian-friendly layout makes exploring this welcoming area a true pleasure.

Laguna
