Spent several days in CA for Christmas vacation at three different hotels. This hotel was by far the gem of the trip. Fantastic service. Great location. Beautiful room. Reasonable price. I will definitely stay here on a return trip. More

We decided to get away for a quick weekend and wanted to stay somewhat close to home. We looked and many cities and hotels and this is the one we chose due to reviews and cost. It was perfect! It has been remodeled with really beautiful furnishings, robes are provided something that is usually part of a much more expensive... More

I used to stay here every time when I'm in orange county. Used to be a great experience. I arrived in December and the hotel occupancy was probably 20-35% so I figured this is why I come here. No loud noise and so on. However all the good reviews in the past I take back. They put me next to... More

What a great place to stay, it is within walking distance of Laguna Beach and all the restaurants and shopping. The staff were very accommodating and went out of their way to welcome us. The room was spacious and very clean with a balcony you could see the ocean. Our room had a refrigerator and a coffee machine, with coffee... More

I found the room really dark - I don't like having to put the lights on all the time! We had a twin room with 2 queen sized beds which was a decent size and had all the expected facilities, but it felt so gloomy. Our room appears to be featured on their website and looks nice and bright, but... More

My husband and I stayed at the Laguna Cliffs inn during a recent 'weekend away'. Hotel was very clean and nicely furnished. The location is great - just a short walk away from the main village area, and close to the beach. Staff was very helpful. More

Although close to the ocean, the hotel itself feels like a converted 1960's motel - the kind that is just a rectangle with a bathroom at the back. The jacuzzi looks like a kiddie pool. Definitely not a place to impress an the Best Western down the street is a better deal. The in room spa is a plus. More
