Petit Soleil is the first boutique hotel property from Good Lion Hospitality, the Santa Barbara-based award-winning group from husband-and-wife duo Brandon Ristaino and Misty Orman. The property was relaunched in February 2024 with a complete remodel and rebrand. Located in downtown San Luis Obispo, California, the 17-room bed, breakfast and beverage features elevated mini-bars including house-made Good Lion Hospitality bottled cocktails and local wines, a cozy Parisian-style courtyard where guests can enjoy a complimentary house-made breakfast and curated aperitif hour, as well as a cocktail garden and fire pits to lounge at night. Petit Soleil is just a 10-minute walk into downtown San Luis Obispo, making it a perfect spot to explore the charm of the Central Coast.
