Definitely retro back to the 60s vibe going on here. Clean rooms and a great experience. It's no St.Regis but pulling in here really takes you back decades. The faucets all remind me of my childhood. If you want a clean nostalgic motor inn, this is it.

I stay here every year when I run the Rose Bowl Half Marathon. The rooms are a bit dated (like me), but charming (I hope like me). Very clean, convenient parking and pleasant lobby. Definitely reminds me of California in the 1960's (in a good way). Very nice and helpful staff. Quiet at night.

About a year ago we found the Saga Motor Hotel. We were in Pasadena, it was late and we needed a place to stay. Instead of getting on our cellphones and inquiring through hotel apps we drove down Colorado Blvd. and saw the Saga neon sign and noticed the hotel looked very vintage, inviting and quaint. We inquired at the desk and was given a room by the swimming pool at a good price. The room was spacious and clean and the continental breakfast was enjoyed by the poolside tables. Since the hotel was on Colorado Blvd. I asked about the Rose Parade and learned the Rose Parade proceeded by and directly in front of the Saga each year. Several months later I called the Saga and made reservations for three days during the Rose Parade time. When calling the hotel I got the feeling it was run by family and they made me feel like part of the family. We returned for the Rose Parade and found the hotel in great shape with attention to detail. They had munchies available to us at most hours in the lobby during our stay and the attention to guests during the parade kept the hotel organized and void of uninvited parade spectators. The hotel is like going back in time and we love it that way. The location is good with nice neighborhoods surrounding it. The price of the Saga for the Rose Parade time was increased significantly but worth it due to its prime location and so much more. We will be back!
