Petit Soleil Hotel

On the Boards

Located in the downtown hotel district in the historic city of San Luis Obispo, the Petit Soleil Hotel is perfectly poised for a rebirth. Built in 1952, and continuously operated as a bed and breakfast, the property has a proven track record of successful lodging. The new owner operators have tasked MN Studio with providing thoughtful design direction for the remodel; the sixteen-room boutique Bed & Beverage Hotel will exhibit the distinctive character, local flavor, and strong community that define Central California. Our design will take inspiration from the surrounding natural beauty and eclectic character of the former hotel, while maintaining an undercurrent of Southern European charm. Guests can expect sophisticated but playful materials with cheeky details and a custom mini bar with curated cocktail offerings in each room. The public spaces including the outdoor patios, bar, and salon will encourage visitors to gather, relax, and linger over the stellar Food & Beverage program. MN Studio is providing all design concepts, furniture, fixtures, artwork, linens, and accessories selections, drawings, and construction administration services. The remodel should be completed in Summer 2023.
