Hotel El Roblar

Hotel

About

Established in 1919, Hotel El Roblar is Ojai’s longest-standing hotel. Just over a century later, Eric Goode, Ramin Shamshiri, Warner Ebbink and Jeremy McBride have restored the two-acre property to its historical charm and namesake. True to both its Spanish Revival and early Californian architectural roots, Hotel El Roblar blends its historic design with a modern sensibility.

Nestled in the heart of the small town of Ojai, the 50-room hotel features two distinct dining venues helmed by Chef Brandon Boudet: Condor Bar, serving modern Mexican cuisine and a café offering breakfast and lunch.

Additional spaces include The Mariposa Ballroom, a historic event space featuring an extensive hand-carved wall relief depicting the natural wonders of Ojai, lovingly restored, to host any event. A lush, Spanish walled garden filled with history and beauty, features soaring palm and dragon trees, charming fountains, and vibrant, potted plants overflowing with color against a backdrop of the Los Padres Forest and Topa Topa mountains.

A serene pool is set against the backdrop of the scenic Topatopa Mountains. Guest rooms are divided among the Main House (31 rooms, many with spacious garden terraces), 11 private bungalows, and the newly added Sycamore House, offering 8 additional rooms.
