Ayres Collection Balboa Island hotels

"The hotel property was very clean and well kept. We explored the area and found some authentic Mexican food trucks that were a nice surprise and included churros made from scratch. "

"Great location. Staff are fantastic, rooms are clean and well maintained. The beds are comfy. Not too far of a walk to the parks. Close to Mimi’s restaurant which we always like to go to."

"Great property within walking distance of Disney—it would be a decent walk but definitely not a long walk. Uber/lyft is like $6. Garden Walk is across the street; super convenient to the freeway. My only criticism is the ac has a musty smell when you first cut it on. The furnishings are dated and need to be replaced but they are clean. It’s surprising considering the lobby looks so upscale; the rooms should reflect the lobby. Another thing is they charge a $200 security deposit which seems excessive for the price point of the property; they charge your card for food and parking separate from the deposit, which I also found to be a bit weird bc that’s the whole point of a deposit—to cover the incidentals, so they charged $300 upon check in ($200 deposit +$100 for parking), on top of the money I’d already spent booking the hotel. I know the money will come back after check out but that’s $200 you’re not going to see for about a week after your vacation is over. Anyway, despite that, it’s a safe, clean property with a nice big pool my daughter loved swimming in. "

"Muy bueno"

"We visit Disneyland often- sometimes a few times per year and the Majestic Gardens is always our first choice for accommodations. While there could be some updating, the hotel & grounds are beautiful & clean. We love the large lobby and the convenience of the restaurant, bar and store. The rooms are extremely generous in size (in comparison to other nearby hotels) and always clean. Beds are comfortable! M favorite are the rooms with patios, leading to the pool & gardens, which offer perfect firework viewing. One suggestion would be to update the pool & jacuzzi. With that being said, I haven't necessarily had an issue, it's purely a cosmetic issue- The pool is rarely overly busy (at least in my experience) and has been great for a mid day cool off or dip before heading to bed. The fact that it is gated is a big plus- it makes us feel safe, especially during trips when I'm traveling solo with my kids. And of course, the complimentary shuttles- it makes getting to and from the parks effortless. Staff is always welcoming and accommodating- we can't wait for our next visit!"

"Great location for attending Disney parks. Really enjoyed the slushies upon check in. Staff very friendly!"

"It was very quiet and the room was very large and comfortable. Disneyland is walkable from here. I will be staying he again. "

"We stay at this Doubletree an average of three times per year, and always enjoy it. This is one of the most consistent hotels we’ve stayed at. Staff is always friendly, the property is clean, and the location is convenient. It’s a bit dated, especially some of the bathrooms, but on the rare occasion we’ve had any trouble with the rooms, the situation has been handled efficiently and to our satisfaction. Will continue to stay again and again!"
