This new Los Olivos hotel serves Arnold Palmers and plenty of wine.
, a new hotel by Auberge Resorts that opened this February in Los Olivos, feels less like something rooted in 21st-century reality, and more like something plucked from California lore of centuries past. The earliest Craftsman-style building on its grounds dates back to 1886, constructed during the state’s boomtown years when a newly-completed branch of the Pacific Coast Railroad brought an influx of settlers to Santa Barbara and the Santa Ynez Valley.
Mattei’s centuries-old ledger still sits in the entrance to what is now the bar, its guest list featuring near-immaculate handwritten ink. On August 8, 1892, a Randall Hunt from San Francisco checked into room six, while John Long from Santa Marina went into room 10. If you had no luggage, a notice at the top reminds guests, you had to pay upfront. On a table nearby sit weathered first editions of McNally maps.
Yet historical touches are everywhere: hung on the walls at the Tavern are the horseshoes from the equines of the historica riding club made up of mostly businessmen traveling throughout central California countryside. A key social stop on their trek? Mattei’s, where they’d drink beer before journeying out again. Over fireplaces and tables are ornate oil paintings, fastened to restored wallpaper from the 1900s. The artist was Felix’s son, Clarence.
Over the years, the inn expanded to become a quaint-yet-luxurious getaway: the addition of several cottages attracted the likes of Old Hollywood stars like Clark Gable, Mickey Rooney, Ava Gardner, and Bing Crosby, who headed to the Santa Ynez Valley for its leisure pursuits such as riding and fishing, as well as its regionally renowned food. It remained in the Mattei family until 1969, then exchanging hands multiple times across the next few decades.
