I’ve lived in Slo since 1977 and I have never stayed the night or viewed any rooms these past 45 years. It used to be booked up months in advance. I’ve eaten there lots of times at both the Steakhouse and the Copper Cafe along with taking a Black Forest and Champagne cake to go… Alex did a great deal for our local area and his funeral was a large gathering of the community back in 2004 was a horse drawn hearse through the center of town. Thanks for taking the time to do this vlog ❤️

What a surprising treat to see your visit to the Madonna Inn. I took a trip with my best friend’s family in 1964 and they took me to the Madonna Inn for lunch. I once again went there for a fantastic dinner with my boyfriend in 1984. I’m now 73 and totally enjoying your lovely reminder as to what a wonderful experiences they were!

I've stayed there a couple of times - it's even more kitschy, tacky and amazing than even Jordan's video can capture. Really a wonderful place. If you can plan a visit in early April, do that. The surrounding rolling California hills are gorgeous with the oranges and purples of California wildflowers. My Madonna Inn story is realizing that they have piped-in frog, no detail being too small for Madonna Inn. Our room had a window overlooking a small, bone-dry and rocky little gully out back, from which emanated the soothing tones of multiple frog song. Figured it was a frog haven until I realized on the second day that the "music" was on a timer.🐸

Boy you brought back my childhood. I was there a few times with my parents and I believe we ate at the coffee shop but then again the restaurant looks familiar too. That was years and years and years ago. We never stayed there unfortunately. It's still such a beautiful place. And I remember when I was little it seemed like it was a fairyland. Thanks for taking us back. Unfortunately I will probably never see it in person again since I'm living in Massachusetts.

Nostalgic for us, it's an incredible piece of Americana. We stayed there back in about 2000 whilst on vacation when we were living in SJC -- my wife and I were in one of the rock rooms, and our daughter was in some kind of fairytale-themed room. We bought a couple of sets of their unique restaurant glasses, and had secretly bought our daughter a local artist's original little fairy painting which we later gave to her for her birthday, she still has that hanging in her home.

At some point in the early 80’s, ( I had moved to Ca in 79) the gals I worked with helped me plan a road trip from Orange County up north Ca. We hit a lot of cool spots on the way to SF. My mother had flown out from Midwest and we did stay one night at the Madonna Inn. We knew there were themed rooms. I forget which room we stayed in. I did not see the rest , so am glad to see all the beautiful grounds, the restaurants, etc. I loved the red room. And all the carved wood! And the comment one person made about the wood carver:) I bet the food is delicious there. Also, I never knew that the name Madonna was a family last name , or anything about them. This was interesting. Especially the story of how eccentric, or multifaceted a personality that Mr. Madonna had. I wonder how Mrs Madonnas personality was. Probably much more easy going, or they would fight too much. Did they have children? Their name sounds Italian, and seemed more of this place, it looks very Italian, or more European, old style. You can’t beat the beauty of real rough hewn rock, or carved heavy wood ,, and cherubs! Add some crystal and stained glass,,, it’s a fairytale land. We all need this kind of beauty. It reminds us of heaven, I think, where beauty abounds. Thanks for taking me there this evening Jordan. I am a Leo,,, and of course we like opulence and a feast for the eyes, and also the palate. I thank God for creativity like the MAdonnas had, in a sometimes drab and hard world,,, and as you said,, flowers! Flowers are essential. And God knew it!🌿🌸🦋💐😻

Amazing architecture. Anywhere else such as holiday inn express or a Ritz, the colors would look pretty horrible and extremely tacky. Here, it absolutely works and it's what gives this place flavor and a unique identity. I really love the rock shower and his and her sinks. You kind of feel like this thing is parked in the middle of a rainforest somewhere far away. It also feels like you've stepped into a time machine circa the 70's. Absolutely gorgeous place. That restaurant is simply beautiful. The place looks amazing top to bottom. And ambiance absolutely is everything. Agreed! Thanks Jordan. I had no clue this place existed. What an absolute hidden gem. If you're ever in Cape May, NJ, try to check out the southern mansion. Another hidden gem.

I think I had a smile on my face throughout the video. I grew up just north of Santa Barbara and when we had visitors or went up to Northern California we would often stop and lunch at the coffee shop at the Madonna Inn. When I was 11 my grandma wanted to look around. There was a beautiful staircase that I thought would be a beautiful place for a bride to make a grand entrance or at least be photographed.
