Hotel Atwater

An exceptional guest experience in the heart of Avalon  

First opened in 1920, Hotel Atwater was the first hotel built under the direction of William Wrigley Jr. after he purchased the Catalina Island Company in 1919. He named the hotel in honor of Helen Atwater Wrigley, wife of his son Philip Knight Wrigley.

Completely renovated in 2019, this historic hotel stays true to the Wrigley family legacy with nostalgic elements like two splits of sparkling wine on arrival day - a tribute to the bubbly Helen enjoyed every evening before bed.

Inviting Island-Inspired Escape

The casual island aesthetic of the hotel’s inviting lobby, where guests can gather to share their island experiences, offers a contemporary twist on Helen’s enduring style and Catalina’s world-famous hospitality. Guestrooms combine rich wood accents, bright colors, ocean-inspired finishes and hints of exotic art deco to create a memorable "Island Deco" escape.

Modern Comforts & Conveniences

Suites feature king beds, one and a half baths, a separate living space with sleeper sofa, bar and desk, along with ocean, town of Avalon and surrounding mountain views. Standard rooms offer king or queen beds. All rooms are equipped with modern comforts and conveniences, including premium mattresses, luxurious linens, mini-refrigerators, digital concierge tablets (temporarily unavailable), high-speed Wi-Fi and smart televisions.

An elevator, ADA-compliant rooms, meeting and event space, and other resort-style services and amenities further enhance the guest experience, making Hotel Atwater one of Catalina’s premier lodging destinations.
