2 thumbs up!
The Hotel Atwater was outstanding. Our first time at this downtown icon. Top notch location: steps from the beach, the pier, Catalina Express, Bluewater restaurant, Discover Catalina bus tour, shopping. The hotel staff was warm and professional. Coffee and tea in the lobby were appreciated. The beds are super comfy and lighting fantastic. Not the cheapest hotel in Avalon but well worth it. I hope to come back!

The staff at the facility were nice and courteous! They really took care of me and family. They made arrangements for us to check in early so my kids and I didn’t have to carry around our bags. They allowed us a late check out since our excursion was ending later than the check out time. And they also stored our bags on our last day even though we had checked out until our boat was leaving the Island! Very professional.
