When we travel first class perhaps we expect something different than most, and The Island Hotel NB delivers. Five Stars in a hotel (which The Island has earned from myself as well as prominent publications) should be subtle, non-intrusive, always on-the-spot when needed. The rooms should be tastefully but not overly decorated, well-appointed and well-kept but roomy. We stayed a... More

We had a two queen room on the fourth floor. The room was huge! Large sofa with two chairs and a desk. Plenty of extra room to walk around. Bathroom was separated by a small hall and it too was very large. Two sinks in one area and the toilet, bathtub and separate shower was in another room. Small balcony... More

My husband was there on a business trip and I was able to tour the area. The staff was welcoming and very helpful. The room was nice sized and comfortable and the bathroom spacious with extra counter space. If you enjoy shopping, it is a 5 minute walk from Fashion Island. It was warm enough to enjoy the pool area.... More

I recently visited the Island Hotel Newport Beach, with my boyfriend, as the kick-off to my first visit to California. It is a gorgeous hotel with fast, efficient and courteous staff. Our trip was off to a rocky start when our reservations were missing from the computer but the wonderful night staff, took care of the mix-up and we were... More

I just stayed here for a business meeting, and it was my first stay. When you pull up, you are immediately greeted by the valet staff...very friendly and accommodating. Check in process was seamless, and front desk staff were also friendly. My room, 617, was good-sized. The bathroom had a nice-sized counter to accommodate all of a woman's various cosmetics,... More

There are many hotels in the area and I have stayed at most of them. If you are lucky enough to get an upgrade its a no brainer, but for those occasions when you just get what you're given, the Island Hotel is my new preferred choice. It has more of a feel of a boutique hotel than many of... More

Last May, I surprised my mom for Mother's Day and booked a room for her and my sister at the Island. I live locally in Newport Beach, but when my family comes to town, it is always fun to put them up in a hotel for the weekend and enjoy the resort amenities. This stay was nearly a year ago,... More

Dear Local Newport Beach Resident and Loyal Guest I am disheartened to read your email! As a hotelier, my number one priority is to ensure that perfection does not take a day off while we create exceptional memories for our guests. Clearly you are still frustrated. Although this is an entire year later, please accept my heartfelt personal and professional... More

From the greeting you receive by the valet parking staff through to check out, the Island Hotel was first class all the way. Staff is friendly, helpful and accommodating. The conference center, while far from opulent, is nice and functional. I was there for two days of business meetings so I was not able to experience the lobby restaurant or... More

We celebrated our 15 year anniversary. Room was nice, but the hotel itself is more suited for business travel and conventions. The restaurant is way overpriced. Will try another hotel next time we're in Newport.

I had to work in Anaheim (25 minutes away) and my wife had a full week to herself. The hotel was well located next to Fashion Island and we had a great view of the water. The Hotel restaurant was good and Fashion Island offers a dozen more alternatives. WE did not want to leave.
