San Simeon California, nestled between the rolling mountains and a spectacular coastline, enjoys a coastal setting with a rugged beauty that allows you to escape from modern day cares. San Simeon is an ideal location, midway between San Francisco and Los Angeles, that is perfect as a weekend escape destination or as an overnight stop on a California coastal tour.

Another popular nearby attraction is the Piedras Blancas elephant seal rookery, located just north of the hotel along historic Highway One.
