Embassy Suites by Hilton Irvine Orange County Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious room"

Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa

8/10 Good

"even though the property was under construction, the staff did an excellent job! although, i didn't expect to be paying an additional 300 for an upgraded room did not get. they promised a pool view at booking and had me over construction site, then i paid for upgraded pool view, and they still had me at a separate half construction half Oceanview room. i was not informed this would be the case. i only received one day credit. it would have been nice to receive credit for both days stay."

Hilton Orange County/Costa Mesa

10/10 Excellent

"Room was spacious and clean, a little dated but all in all a decent room. The air conditioning didn’t seem to meet the degree I set it at. I tried calling to mention the air conditioning and I was on hold long enough for me to hang up. My husband and I enjoyed the pool and ordered the chicken wings & some fries they were both very tasty! Parking was not included which is such a bother, we parked else where due to it being an additional 45 each day. All and all a good stay."

Surf & Sand Laguna Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Came for a weekend getaway with my boyfriend. We were greeting by friendly valet and front desk people. They even offered welcome champagne. We got there early so we had to wait for a room, but it was worth it since we got upgraded to a different room. The views here are worth it. You have access to a pool but we went down to the beach instead. We enjoyed drinks in their lobby area that even had someone playing live music. We dined inside our room for dinner since our view was perfect. Everywhere we went the staff greeted us with smiles and were so nice. Honestly, this was the best hotel stay I've ever had. We're definitely coming back."
