Hilton Anaheim

10/10 Excellent

"Great location & staff was very professional !"

Holiday Inn Los Angeles - LAX Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great place to stay for a short stay. The location is great but if you use the shuttle, be aware that the driver doesn’t stop at all terminals even though they circle the area. I stood at terminal 4 for 30 minutes because the driver kept driving by. So, once you arrive call the hotel and they will send a link as well as notify the driver you are waiting. Otherwise, everything was great."

Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG

8/10 Good

"Thank you , Holiday Inn San Francisco!! The view from my room was BREATH TAKING ! The Hotel was clean ! Staff were all polite and extremely helpful ! And I loved all of the amenities like the pool and the gym ! I truly enjoyed all of the surrounding restaurants and nightlife just outside of the hotel ! Definitely going to book again !"
