Hotels near Laguna Hills, CA

“The hills hotel not too expensive nothing crazy fancy you get what you pay for it I definitely recommend it

Rooms: Very clean modern spacious”

“This hotel met all of my expectations as I travel for extended periods of time. The Mart that is available for meals or snacks was fully stocked. The front desk employee Nehal was very receptive and speedy to make sure that I had clean towels and my rooms trash was removed as I requested. I would highly recommend this hotel for the short business traveler.”

“I'm amazed at the service specialist team who put the scenario together for tourism at Laguna Beach, where there's resources and playful like humorous staff and visitors.
The rooms are influenced by the environment and the people of those surroundings.
The location is perfect perception and right interpretation in the form of enjoyment, laughter and unforgettable sightings.”

“This seems like a newer property that has been kept in good repair since new. Everything in the room worked exactly as it should, and the attendant, Rosario, was clearly proud of her work, as this room was spotless when I checked in and everything worked as it should. Even the clock was set to the correct time, and I can’t remember how many times I’ve walked into a hotel room to find the clock was off by hours. I’d stay here again without hesitation!”

“This is a quality hotel that offers great service. The most important quality was customer service at all levels of the organization. This includes the front desk, bellman, valet, room service, security, all servers in each and every restaurant we visited during our stay were great. The food was delicious! This hotel is my favorite and I have travelled a lot in my career. This will be a place I will go to annually.

Rooms: Our view was fantastic. Housekeeping was great.

Nearby activities: The town of Dana Point gives you access to the harbor and unique shopping. You can take a trolley to Laguna Beach and enjoy boutique shops and art galleries.

Walkability: You never have to leave the hotel. Everything is floor away. Excursions to the beach with all the supplies you need. Food and drink are always available.

Food and drinks: All restaurants are five star and the servers are fantastic.

Noteworthy details: The hotel offers excursions like whale watching and hiking”

“Rooms are 3 stars but you will never be in them, you’ll spend your time at the beach and on the really beautiful grounds. 5 stars because of Bachir, one of the front desk people.”

“Each and every staff member we encountered went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing time. I can't recommend this resort enough! -- The service at Pelican Hill is extraordinary! Far beyond any resort we have ever experienced.”

“Everything was amazing from food, cleanliness and location.

We did communicate this. There was only one particular surprise where one of the desk attendants told us that the lobby closed. We had a long day and brought a pizza back (it was 9:50p.m.) for our leadership team to share and the attendant came and said the lobby closes in 5 minutes and couldn't stay, which we had never heard of before.”

“The hotel is what you'd expect of a 5 star hotel. Upper class finishes, great food options, and amazing service. This hotel has 5 star views and their beach club is amazing.”

“This is THE BEST hotel EVER!! My kids and I love staying here!! The most recent trip was to escape our home renovations and I'm grateful for the oasis and the excellent customer service from everyone at this hotel!! The front desk staff, especially Mimi, Travis, Anthony and so many people who work there, like the excellent house keeping staff and the wonderful people who make the awesome food!!! WOW ? So grateful for everyone!! Great pool, and basketball courts, clean and comfortable rooms and great people who stay there too!! Such a beautiful blessing to be there each visit!! God's Blessings to y'all and thank you for SUCH an exceptional hotel!! ✝️ Five stars!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“WOW! I stay 80-90 nights a year all over the country, and short of being a beach from hotel, this was the best property I've stayed at. The room was big and beautiful. The bathroom was very oversized and plenty large. The beds were very comfortable. Once you were in the room, you rarely heard any doors slam or people talking around you. That is not usually the norm. Most hotels you can hear every single door closing on several floors - not here. The outdoor area was remarkable. A putting green, table tennis, cornhole, a heated LARGE outdoor pool, and a very spacious hot tub. There are plenty of tables and chairs available. Pool towels and lounge chair towels are provided.

I did not eat in the Bistro. As others have stated, parking is very high at $25 per night.

I hope to stay here again sometime again, even if I have to drive out of my way.”

“This hotel is all about location. It's right on the main road through town, and better yet it's right up the hill from the beach.

From your room just walk down the path less than a minute and you're on the beach. They're also nice enough to supply beach chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards.

And when you're done with the beach, the hotel is placed right on the main drag, walkable to all the shops and restaurants.

The view from the room is amazing, directly looking out over the pacific. Also outside the window was a bush covered in flowers with a family of hummingbirds who were quite entertaining. There was also a small balcony with lounge chairs and an umbrella (if you don't feel like walking down to the beach).

The room was not huge, but the bed was comfortable, and pointed right at the windows so waking up to the sound of the waves and that view was a perfect start to the day.

There were plenty of drawers for storing our belongings which I appreciated. The bathroom was fine, again not huge, and no tub but the shower worked well enough to rinse the beach off.

Finding the hotel and parking was easy (pull into the courtyard and hand the keys to the valet) although not especially cheap ($38 per day) but that's not too far off what you'd pay all day at the meters.

Staff were friendly and nice but nothing over and above. Check-in & out were quick and easy.

The pool was ok, it's in a kind of quirky semi-covered building so there's some shade but not a lot. It's on the street side of the property so no ocean view which would have been nice but oh well.

Honestly the property seemed like it could use a bit more maintenance, but in the end it didn't matter that much. If you're looking for luxury this is maybe not the hotel for you, but the view and location made up for everything else.”

“We stay at the Tides Inn every time we come to Laguna Beach. Our room has a kitchenette with a small refrigerator, a microwave, and a Kurig coffee maker. Anderson greets you by name and makes you feel like you're coming home!”

“I chose Blue Lantern Inn for my bachelorette weekend in Dana Point and it was absolutely dreamy! I had the pleasure of working with the Group & Special Events Coordinator, Carmen Hoffarth, who created our room block with special accommodations for my friends, which she did without hesitation when I asked (despite it causing more work for her on the back end). My party flew in from out-of-state and they were totally blown away by the views of the harbor, which were spectacular, and the quality of the breakfast and happy hours. The food was much better than you'd get at a typical hotel... homemade and hearty.

We'd stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!”

“Where convenience meets comfort ? From offering the Blend Cafe with 24hr coffee/espresso beverages—to already prepped meals + snacks in their grab n’ go section, followed by shuttles that take you to and fro (within 2 miles of hotel) fo’ free, and why (of course) the always gracious and accommodating staff - you literally can’t go wrong ?‍? I’d have to say my fav part of the hotel—besides the staff—was the ability to step outside by the pool and lay back on a lounge chair, or sit on the comfy, ample couch-like seating poolside. They have a jacuzzi too, so why not take a dip on the chilly nights or crisp AMs? They also have fire pits next to the lounge seating.. will have to come back to experience that. On this stay, in particular, I definitely learned one thing ☝️- blue skies equals better vibez. Coming from OH, where skies are oh-so gray often, I see how moods match the weather & attitudes take cues from the brightness of the sun. Well, this time, I’m hoping to travel with a pocket full of sunshine & carry it back with me so others can experience what it’s like when you are met with wonderful weather, stellar service, and moods that match ✌️?”

“Fantastic boutique hotel! So quaint and everything was on theme. From the decor, to the food, to the beverages in the fridge, it was all on point, well executed and delicious! We’ll definitely be staying again next time we’re in Laguna.”

“This Cozy Charming Establishment is a home away from home.The staff are friendly and professional.
The Rooftop Ocean view restaurant has great food and a delicious Brunch on Saturday & Sunday. To top this hotel experience off was the kindness of one of the Managers Jim Hall. He went above and beyond to make sure our stay at the hotel was perfect, he was such a delight.. We will definitely be back…”

“My husband and I stayed at the Laguna Beach House for two nights & our only regret is that we didn't plan to stay longer! We had the absolute best time hanging out around the pool/fire pit, relaxing in our room and hanging in the lobby space. We were blown away by the hospitality-- from the kind welcome to the fresh cookies they served guests in the evening. We loved how we were just a short walk away from the beach, shops, and restaurants! We will absolutely be back!!”

“The room was very clean. Both TV’s
worked. The refrigerator and freezer worked . The coffee maker worked and had plenty of coffee and condiments. The staff was friendly, caring and they made you feel special. I will definitely go there again.

Rooms: The rooms are very nice.”

“Great stay and great view. Carlos was great making reservations and helping with check in. Can't beat location and price with the awesome ocean view on the balcony. The only thing I would say, which wasn't a big deal was there is no clock in the room and the trash cans are very small. One in bathroom and one in living room. I would definitely stay again.”

“Amazing hotel! Super clean and friendly staff. Very accommodating. Quiet. Across the street from the beaches and tons of food places/shops. I would highly recommend and will definitely come back again!”

“Rooms are a bit long in the tooth but considering how long the building has been there....it's not bad. It's just not the Montage.

Service is very good. Staff is friendly and courteous. Very helpful. For the money it's worth it.”

“Very nice and clean Hotel just down the street from the Coach House, near the beach and plenty of parking. Nice large rooms with full kitchens and pull out sofas for guests. I'll definitely be back next time I'm visiting Dana Point/ San Juan Capistrano.”

“★★★½ Solid Comfort, Room for Improvement

My recent stay at the TownePlace Suites in Irvine Lake Forest was generally pleasant, though not without a few drawbacks. The hotel delivers on most of the Marriott brand promises, offering clean, spacious suites and friendly service.

The Good:
The rooms are well-maintained and provide ample space to spread out, with the living area nicely separated from the sleeping space. The staff was attentive and professional, handling check-in efficiently. The location proved convenient for my business in the area, with easy access to major roads and nearby amenities. The complimentary Wi-Fi performed reliably throughout my stay.

The Average:
While the hotel is clean, some of the furnishings and fixtures are starting to show their age. Nothing was broken or dysfunctional, but you can tell this isn't the newest property in the Marriott portfolio. Parking was adequate but filled up quickly during peak hours.

Needs Improvement:
The complimentary breakfast, while convenient, was disappointing from a nutritional standpoint. The offerings leaned heavily on processed carbs and sugary options. I would have appreciated more fresh fruit options, plain yogurt (not the sugar-loaded varieties), and perhaps some more protein-focused choices beyond the standard powdered eggs. For a health-conscious traveler, the breakfast spread left much to be desired.

Bottom Line:
If you're looking for a reliable, comfortable stay in Irvine Lake Forest without breaking the bank, TownePlace Suites delivers adequately. Just don't expect to be wowed, and consider grabbing breakfast elsewhere if you prioritize healthy eating.”

“The rooms were good, cute surfer theme. Service was excellent. The fridge was leaking in our room. WhenI tild the front desk, they were extreemly nice and asked if I wanted to move rooms or wait for the engineer to fix or replace the fridge. I told them I was fine with either, it was the week of Thanksgiving and I knew they were going to be busy. They ended up moving us across the hall so we wouldn'thave to drag out stuff all over the hotel. Our new room had a better view! The gym seems excellent! We didn't have time to use it this trip, but we will plan on using it in the future. The whole week staff was very nice. This was the perfect location for us, near family and easy access to the freeway. We will definitely stay here again when we visit the area.”

“Big room, clean and comfortable. Everyone was happy and relaxed super chill environment. Good deal too! Easy access in and out. Breakfast for the morning before the session goes down. Beach is right across the street. This place is super cool. Cheers ?✌️❤️”

“Nice hotel. We have stayed
there before. BUT they are now charging $14.95 a night to park which is totally ridiculous. There is a huge parking lot behind the hotel which was blocked off. There was one car parked there. We won't stay there again”

“We got such a great deal when we booked!! Everything is very clean, they have a free breakfast buffet available, the suite we got also had the jets for the jacuzzi(which was a huge plus!) Customer service was on point! Plenty of free parking!”

“The wellness suite room we got was very noisy as it was facing probably the main road, so sleep was disruptive. If I had known, I would have requested a different one. Otherwise the location is great for the hotel and lots of places to eat outside the hotel at walking distance. The Irvine spectrum center is within few minutes drive which is a popular spot if you want to do shopping.”

“Great little Hotel in walking distance to the beach. Rooms are very comfortable with a modern contemporary feel. Very clean. Coffe maker fridge and microwave are available. Ocean view a plusHighly recommendable.”
