Lincoln Motel Pasadena is a small, clean place on Lincoln Avenue. Travelers stay here for a night or two — to rest, visit family, or attend an event at Rose Bowl. It feels local, quiet, and direct. There is no luxury, but everything needed is close at hand.
Location and Atmosphere
The motel sits at 1559 Lincoln Avenue, Pasadena, CA 91103. Streets nearby are lined with houses and small stores. It is two miles from Old Pasadena, near Norton Simon Museum and the city’s gardens. The area is calm, with light traffic and evening walks still safe.
Within Walking Distance
Around the corner are coffee shops, taquerias, and convenience stores. Public buses run on the main road, and parks sit within ten minutes. The 210 Freeway entrance is close, so reaching downtown Los Angeles takes about 25 minutes.
Space and Style
Lincoln Motel Pasadena is a two-story property with open-air hallways, exterior stairs, and parking right outside each room. Guests appreciate the convenience — no elevators, no long corridors, just quick access from car to door.
The building was recently refreshed: gray walls, laminate floors, and soft LED lights create a clean, calm tone.
Each room includes:
- a desk for work or planning trips,
- a flat-screen TV,
- a microwave and mini fridge,
- air conditioning and heating,
- fresh bedding and bright lighting.
Red accents on furniture bring warmth, and a photo of downtown Los Angeles adds a local touch.
Bathrooms and Outdoor Space
Bathrooms are small but functional, with:
- LED mirrors,
- white tile,
- steady hot water.
Outside, the courtyard feels relaxed and open. Potted plants line the walkway, railings are freshly painted, and from the upper floor, guests can glimpse the San Gabriel Mountains in the distance. Morning light brightens the walls, while evenings turn them softly golden.
Guest Experience
Days here follow a clear rhythm. Coffee in the morning, a short drive to museums or the stadium, quiet rest at night. Guests like that the check-in takes minutes and Wi-Fi works without issue.
Most describe the place as clean, steady, and fair for the price. It suits travelers who want function, not frills.
Services and Guest Care
Staff help with directions and local tips. Through local partners, guests can also request concierge help or arrange private home health care if needed.

Home help care services are available for short visits or ongoing support. Medical assistance comes directly to the room, keeping privacy intact.
