Days Inn Windmill Solvang/Buellton
114 EAST HIGHWAY 246
BUELLTON, CALIFORNIA 93427
UNITED STATES
As you whiz along Highway 101, you'll notice this windmill
hotel. Pretty neat! This is the hotel featured in the movie "Sideways", about
two buddies who take a journey from Southern California to the Central
California coast wine country. Using this hotel as their home base, they
drink lots of wine and get into some interesting situations with some local
single ladies. If you are planning a trip to Solvang, Buellton, Santa Maria,
San Luis Obispo or Pismo Beach, be sure to rent the movie and watch it
before you go. It's quite entertaining.
There are quite a few windmills in the area of Buellton
and Solvang, two communities influenced by Danish culture. This Days Inn
is within view of the Santa Barbara Marriott but usually offers a little
lower price on rooms. For that, you don't get tennis courts and a
variety of amenities, but you do get a room conveniently located near a
variety of Central Coast cities and activities. Since the property is right
off the freeway exit, it is ideal for those late night drives when you
need to rest and want to get a room right away.
Nearby attractions include Solvang downtown shopping,
two missions, dozens of wineries, Lompoc flower fields, Santa Barbara,
historic Los Alamos, Santa Ynez and Los Olivos, Chumash Indian Casino,
plus two favorite dinner spots, AJ Spurs and Hitching Post (both serve
great filet mignon), you might consider staying at this Buellton hotel
on your next drive.
