Affordable yet classy, great central location
Right off the 198 highway, this Visalia landmark has stood the test of time. Courteous staff, quick & easy check in and out. Some major renovations should cement this classic for years to come!!

It is currently under remodeling. Restaurant closed, dirty, limited parking, takes a long time for hot water. I would wait until remodeling is done to go back.

The hotel is undergoing some renovations. Good outdoors with a big pool. Rooms are big but they clearly need the reno they are doing.

I have stayed at the Lampliter quite a few times, it is safe & mostly clean. Always try for a Garden view room, closer to the pool and a nice floral view. The Mgmt & Housekeeping have always helped with any issues I have ever been concerned about. I visit the Visalia area often, The Lampliter is my only choice.

Have stayed at LampLiter for years, mostly with Eastern Star Masonic group. Always familiar, clean and safe. Now travel back and forth from Yucca Valley and Redding. Previous owners kept it quaint and nice. Happy to see it being taken care of and getting updated.
