Hotels work in Pasadena
Pasadena draws visitors for the Rose Parade and the Rose Bowl, for Caltech and the Huntington, and for the old town streets around Colorado Boulevard. That mix keeps a steady flow of hotel searches through the year, from people booking a parade weekend months ahead to someone looking for a room near a wedding or a conference. The hotels here run from small independent properties and historic inns to branded select service and full service hotels along the 210 corridor and around Old Pasadena. Those properties compete for the same guest searches, and the branded chains bring their own national marketing behind them. The demand is there all year, with clear peaks around the parade and the bowl game, commencement season and the summer convention calendar.
