Hotel El Roblar, Ojai, California.

Dating back to 1919, Ojai’s longest-standing hotel has reopened as a sophisticated, adult-centric retreat that beautifully honors its Spanish and California Mission Revival roots. Spanning two acres in the heart of downtown, the 50-room boutique property features a historic main building, a newer annex, and private bungalows complete with spacious garden patios. Interiors embrace the valley's warmth with earthy tones, Monterey-style furniture, and local art, while the lush grounds offer Spanish fountains, dragon trees, and a pool set against the dramatic Topa Topa mountains. Dining pays homage to regional history, featuring California-Mexican plates at La Cocina and agave-forward cocktails at the Condor Bar. It’s a stylish, dog-friendly escape where early 20th-century soul meets modern leisure.
