    The mission inn is absolutely gorgeous and there are always new things to discover. Make sure you eat at their restaurant because the food is fantastic!

    Love the lunch buffet with choices of fish, poultry and red meat. The salad selection is limited. Bread pudding and a slew of dessert to match everyone's taste buds. Sit outside in the patio.

    Nice big historic hotel with lots of different hidden areas that is fun to explore. Pool is great in the afternoon. FYI: The owner is a big Trump supporter which may or may not weigh on your ethics.

    An absolute Oasis in a sea of surrounding chaos. Great steaks and wine selection. It's an experience that if you are near its a must. Romantic have to bring wife.

    Catch it in December for Christmas lights all over! :] There's also a great buffet on the weekends, but it's also kind of pricey! I wish they would make it affordable to college kids.

    The famous Sunday brunch is delicious! More food than you could ever want. Try the bread pudding - it was my favorite!

    Don't leave Riverside w/o visiting the Mission Inn. Despite its name, it's a mix of styles from Spanish Colonial to Renaissance to Mediterranean. Plus two gorgeous mosaics by Louis Comfort Tiffany!

    Beware Christmas - the holiday lights display at the Inn is a huge crowd draw and lobby check-in is more like fighting your way to nosebleed middle row seats at an NFL game.

    At Christmas time the Mission Inn is decorated with millions of lights. You'll love checking out this holiday tradition.

    Worst place I have ever stayed in, it is located next to a corridor full of 24 hour bars and restaurants where there is literally blaring music all night and drunken fights going on until 4- 5 am.
