Topanga Canyon Inn Bed and Breakfast

A total Gem ! I was visiting the area for a retreat and needed to stay nearby for one night. We found this beautiful comfortable quiet spot, complete with all of the amenities and a fabulous breakfast as well. Beds are comfortable, pillows are great, its clean, it's cozy and quiet, plenty of privacy. The on site manager is the adult son of the family that built the home in the 80s. He was friendly and we felt so at home in this BB. I would FOR SURE go back when in the area. Topanga Canyon is a unique hippie community around hiking trails and gorgeous mountain scenery just a few miles from the most beautiful beaches in California. If you're looking for a unique spot this is IT !

I did do a review the first time I stayed but it disappeared so here's a new one. We've been here twice and both times we had a great nights sleep. It's wonderfully peaceful with no passing traffic. The beds are very comfortable. The place is immaculately clean and the houses furnished tastefully with their wonderful family artwork on the walls. The community breakfasts there are fun but Cafe 27 is just up the road if you don't want to commit to a breakfast time. Christian met us and checked us in and was very helpful with local info. We found the place easily using the directions on the confirmation. Parking is tricky but doable.

Beautiful place. A little of the beaten path but well worth it. It's part of the charm. Spacious common area with nice clean bedrooms. Definitely not a cookie cutter chain type place. Warren the owner is fascinating. This was unexpectedly a highlight of our trip.

Had a short but great stay. Very secluded getaway experience in Topanga Canyon Hills. Staff were great. Plenty of moderate hiking trails. Breakfast was no frills but adequate. If you are a coffee lover bring your own. All in all we had a 4 experience.

Three beautifully situated Spanish style, Bed And Breakfast outside of the canyon, unfortunately, it was only for one night due to business travel. This is definitely a must return destination, I’m sorry that I had to leave so quickly due to business travel. Oren and his staff were exceptional. Car service was difficult to find at 6 AM in, Warren the owner came at 7 AM to pick me up and drive me to my destination. It was very kind and hospitable of him. The house was very well-maintained, however, you go for the picturesque view and the peacefulness.

The setting, the amenities, and the views are a rare combination in urban LA. Warren the host is a courtly cultured raconteur of interesting local lore and personal experiences. Was my fourth stay and will not be my last!

We found the inn easily but we did go in daylight. No problem getting our Tesla up the hill. Christian came out to greet us and made us feel very welcome. Our room and en-suite was immaculately clean. My hubby was worried that they wouldn’t have AC but fortunately they do! We had a great nights sleep. We loved the attention to detail with the 1909 Stickley furnishings, art work and photographs. The communal breakfast was delicious and it was fun chatting to the other guests. We only stayed one night but we’re planning to go back as the Topanga Shakespeare Co ‘Theatricum Botanicum’ is nearby, and we’ve enjoyed many a play there.

The location of the property was beautiful and it would be difficult to find something similar in the area. I wish the road leading up to the property (which is privately maintained) did not have large sized potholes so be aware of this if you come here. Also, the property sends you multiple messages in advance about informing them of your check-in time. I called as requested at least a week prior only to arrive and the room was not ready until 5pm (check in at 3pm). There are very reasonable up-charges if you wish to check in early or check out late. I would expect them to maintain their regular check-in time of 3pm as noted. Upon arrival, the staff taking care of the location did not smile once and responded in a strange and robotic manner. It did not matter how friendly or polite you were, they would just stare. It felt very odd. The staff also did not maintain the parking locations so people parked in ways that made it difficult for everyone to get in and out of a steep hill. The breakfast was a farm breakfast with eggs, sausage, fruit, and muffins. The owner joined at breakfast and proceeded to speak negatively about previous guests. The location was lovely and rooms acceptable. The environment created by the staff would be the primary reason we would not return.

If you’re a person of color, from another country, or a member of the queer community, I would strongly recommend avoiding this hotel for your own safety. The gorgeous scenic views and quaint Spanish style villa was overshadowed by the owner Warren’s unsolicited and problematic daily comments. Warren would deliberately steer every conversation into an opportunity to outwardly express his hateful and frankly terrifying beliefs. Despite this obviously making us uncomfortable and after several attempts to simply change the subject, Warren continued down a racist and xenophobic tirade which touched on his negative views about “illegal immigrants”, passion for guns, and comments about being “surprised we weren’t homeless” because we are from the Bay Area. If you are looking for a place to stay in Topanga Canyon, I have to believe there is another spot you can find to enjoy the area that won’t have you constantly wondering if you are in an unsafe situation.
