San Luis Obispo

Step into a quiet retreat just steps from downtown

Tucked behind a private courtyard on Chorro Street, The Cottage offers a peaceful sanctuary where the rhythm of SLO moves at your pace — walkable to the Plaza, the wine trail, and every corner that makes this town special.

A charming hideaway in the heart of San Luis Obispo

The Cottage in The Courtyard sits on a quiet stretch of Chorro Street, just a short walk from the historic Plaza and the vibrant shops and restaurants of downtown SLO. We created this space for travelers who want more than a hotel room — they want a sense of place, a moment to breathe, and a home base that feels genuinely theirs.

Whether you're here for a weekend wine tasting, a stopover on the Pacific Coast Highway, or a visit to Cal Poly, our cottage offers the comfort of a private retreat with the convenience of an unbeatable location. The courtyard itself — shaded, planted, and wonderfully still — is where we hope you'll linger longest.
