Looking for a quick getaway WITH THE POOCH and this was it! Loved the atmosphere at the Julian Lodge—peaceful & calming—and the room was spacious and comfy. Just off Main Street, we could walk everywhere conveniently and easily. Can’t wait to go back!

Nice place to stay when in Julian. I had a small room but it was just me and it was in great shape. The staff helped work out a problem with friendliness and professionalism. I would stay again.

I booked this lodge through expedia,for my wife and my 10 year wedding anniversary, and I was not disappointed the building was obviously old but the rooms were redecorated and were in great shape,
Our room was extremely large and very comfortable, the staff was very accommodating, they even called as we were on our way down to advise us the room may not be ready due to a staffing issue and to take our time. We would definitely book a room there in the future.

Great place to stay and unwind after a long motorcycle ride. Everything in Julian downtown is walkable from the lodge. Rooms are clean and quiet. There's a coffee machine in the lobby and water.
