About The Palomar Inn

The Palomar Hotel in downtown Santa Cruz was designed by the prominent early 20th century architect William Henry Weeks. Built in 1929 then remodeled in 1985 and 1990, the building represents a commitment to quality construction and details of design that are rare today. The Palomar was the pride of the Santa Cruz Community when built and it remains a beautiful and historic downtown landmark. The structure is a concrete-clad vertical-ribbed style that is quintessential late 1920s American modernism. It is embellished with elaborate Art Deco-inspired elements, including the busts of conquistadores and natives embedded in the upper façade. His work is found throughout California, including the greater Santa Cruz area, as his original California practice was founded in Watsonville. The Palomar Inn is now a residential property with SRO unit apartments, providing a gracious homesite with downtown convenience. All units have a private bathroom All rooms have a mountain, bay, or downtown view All rooms have cable/internet connections Coin operated laundry on site Resident manager and night manager on-site

The Palomar Inn is an apartment community located in Santa Cruz County and the 95060 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Santa Cruz City High School District attendance zone.

Neighborhood

From the majestic wonder of Natural Bridges State Beach to the spectacular and historic Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Santa Cruz is a California gem. Just beyond the beach dotted with palm trees, mountains form an impressive backdrop. But it isn't just pretty to look at -- Santa Cruz offers fun and adventure, from surfing and swimming at the beach to hiking in a coastal redwood forest.

Santa Cruz is located on the north side of Monterey Bay. It is home to the University of California - Santa Cruz, a top-ranking research university that overlooks the ocean. Known as "Surf City," you'll want to bring your surf board to your new Santa Cruz apartment -- along with your sun screen and flip flops.

Downtown Santa Cruz is more than spectacular beaches and gorgeous parks. There are more than 100 shops in downtown, dozens of amazing restaurants, the Santa Cruz Farmers Market, terrific nightlife, and exciting festivals and events.
