California travel guide Veronica Hill shares her Mission Inn Travel Guide in this episode of California Travel Tips.

The Mission Inn in Riverside, which dates back to 1876, is one of the most historic California hotels. From its humble beginnings as a 12-room adobe, this Riverside hotel soon became one of the West's grandest getaways, hosting 10 U.S. Presidents and countless movie stars. (Richard Nixon was married here). Owner Frank Miller borrowed from several architectural styles to build his hotel, bringing back treasures and inspiration from his travels to the Orient, Europe and Spain. The 16th-century Glockenspiel, located in the central courtyard, rotates every 15 minutes with figures of an Indian, Junipero Serra, Juan Baptista De Anza and a Franciscan Monk. 3649 Mission Inn Ave., Riverside, CA 92501.
