Hotels

Clovis

  • Best Western Clovis Cole - 415 Clovis Ave, Clovis, CA 93612

great location within walking distance of coffee shops, dining, night life, & shopping in charming downtown Clovis   

Distance from Scarab: 10 miles, 14 minutes.

This is our favorite because accessibility to a lively district is available both morning and evening. It's a bit less convenient than downtown Fresno.

​​

Downtown Fresno

  • DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Fresno Convention Center, 2233 Ventura St, Fresno, CA 93721 

  • La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Fresno Yosemite, 2926 Tulare St, Fresno, CA 93721 

great choices for hotels in downtown Fresno, close to the vibrant downtown brewery district

Distance from Scarab: each is about 1.5 miles, 6 minutes. We don't recommend walking. If you don't have a vehicle, we can help you arrange a ride share.
