EXHIBIT 31

CERTIFICATION


I, John F. Rothman, certify that:

      1.    I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB of Casa Munras
            Hotel Partners, L.P.;

      2.    Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any
            untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
            necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances
            under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect
            to the period covered by this quarterly report;

      3.    Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
            information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all
            material respects the financial condition, results of operations and
            cash flows of the Registrant as of, and for, the periods presented
            in this quarterly report;

      4.    As the Registrant's certifying officer, I am responsible for
            establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
            defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal
            control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
            13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the Registrant and have:

            a.    Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused
                  such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under
                  our supervision, to ensure the material information relating
                  to the Registrant is made known to me by others within those
                  entities, particularly during the period in which this
                  quarterly report is being prepared;

            b.    Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or
                  caused such internal control over financial reporting to be
                  designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable
                  assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and
                  the preparation of financial statements for external purposes
                  in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

            c.    Evaluated the effectiveness of the Registrant's disclosure
                  controls and procedures and presented in this report our
                  conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
                  and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this
                  report based on such evaluation; and

      d.    Disclosed in this report any change in the Registrant's internal
            control over financial reporting that occurred during the
            Registrant's most recent fiscal quarter (the Registrant's fourth
            fiscal quarter in the case of an annual

                                       10

            report) that has materially affected, or is reasonable likely to
            materially affect, the Registrant's internal control over financial
            reporting;

      5.    As the Registrant's certifying officer, I have disclosed, based on
            my most recent evaluation of internal control over financial
            reporting, to the Registrant's auditors and the audit committee of
            Registrant (or persons performing the equivalent function):

            a.    All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the
                  design or operation of internal controls over financial
                  reporting which are reasonable likely to adversely affect the
                  Registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and report
                  financial information; and

            b.    Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management
                  or other employees who have a significant role in the
                  Registrant's internal controls over financial reporting.
