    Compared to the overpriced, waiting-line-only affairs you'll find a few miles north, the Big Sur River Inn is a quaint, old-California establishment with good people, tasty food and happy living.

    Doubles as a good no-fuss brunch spot if you’re looking to down a Bloody Mary on a giant back deck with a view of Big Sur River down below. http://bit.ly/Zr8zjB

    If you're staying at the inn, the beds are super comfy. If you're eating at the restaurant, the gaucho steak hits the spot.

    This place has nice rooms overlooking the Big Sur River. Quiet and isolated, the inn boasts not having any TV or phone services, but it's funny that I can still get WiFi internet service here.

    Been here 5+ times
    Grab a refreshment and a stogie and sit on the wood chairs by the river and relax. No crowds in the winter!

    This is a cute place, great restaurant. The rooms are loud (next to highway) but I wouldn’t let that deter you.

    While other parts of the U.S. are dealing with not so wonderful weather we are enjoying the river and the warmth. Come sit with us.

    The potato skins were good. Thr Roasted eggplant is a misleading name for what the dish actually looks and tastes like. But enjoyed both these starters.

    We stopped at the Big Sur inn, but were treated very poorly by the hostess. The manager offered no apology and his final comment to us was "this restaurant is not suitable for people like you"

    Salada de atum e hamburguer magníficos! Excelente atendimento. Aliás, prefiro o atendimento dos mexicanos do que dos americanos.
