Bakersfield’s best hotel, Padre Hotel, first opened its doors in 1928 and today is Bakersfield’s only 4-Diamond Hotel. After being closed for several years, the historic hotel underwent a transformation to become a sophisticated boutique hotel with restaurants, nightlife, wedding venues and conference facilities. After a long day out in the oil fields, working on the farm, or just exploring Bakersfield, come unwind in our luxurious guest rooms, host your private event, or enjoy one of Padre Hotel Bakersfield’s unique dining and bar options.
The rooms and suites at The Padre Hotel offer fresh design schemes, high-end amenities, and teak furnishings creating the perfect balance between style and substance.
From rooftop ambiance to hipster hangouts, dining and bar options await at The Padre. Grab a table at Brimstone as you feast on an elevated menu that excellently pairs with its unmatched selection of local brews, wine, and top shelf whiskey at this bar’s saloon-like digs. Or tune into weekly happy hour and live music perched upon Prairie Fire’s vibey, outdoor lounge before waking up to a vibrant selection of breakfast eats and local coffee at Farmacy Café.
Whether it's a romantic evening, a foodie retreat or an extended vacay you're looking for, let our unique hotel packages be the cherry on top of your Padre getaway.

Giddy up! Between monthly wine tastings, signature whiskey events and local beer dinners, we’re keeping your social calendar so full you’ll never have to leave the hotel! But that’s not to say there isn’t fun to be found outside our four walls. Enjoy an evening of entertainment with our neighbor the historic Fox Theater. Or go boating and fishing on beautiful Lake Webb and discover a fascinating 18th-century village at the Kern County Museum. However you choose to pair your stay, you’re in good company with the Padre.
Old school charm melded with modern amenities, this hotel has it all without the cookie-cutter corporate feel of many other hotels. The decor and design touches blow me away every time and my room this round (Forty-winks) was just as stunning as it was comfortable.
The Padre Hotel meets and exceeds all my expectations. The bed is so comfortable, the rooms are beautifully decorated, the shower is nice. The Belvedere is the restaurant inside the hotel, the food is very good, wine selection is perfect. The staff is there to please, excellent customer service all around.
My first time at the Padre Hotel here in Bakersfield and I will always only stay here. Just had one of the best meals in ages here in the Belvedere Room. The hotel ambiance is super chic, hip, uber cool - a hotel you would expect to find only in a major hip, metropolitan and cosmopolitan city like San Francisco, L.A. or Portland.
The Padre Hotel would have to be one of the "coolest" hotels we have stayed at anywhere in the world. Everything was done so stylishly and uniquely different to other hotels. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We loved it!
