We stayed 7 nights in this hotel when my daughter's high school marching band was to march in the Tournament of Roses Parade on 1/1/11. We wanted to stay close to the kids without staying WITH the kids. This hotel was relatively quiet, but some people who were there to go to the Rose Bowl game were staying at this... More

I stayed overnight at the Courtyard by Marriot LA Torance South Bay in November of 2011 during an educational conference which was held at the hotel. They offered us great rates for the rooms at $99 a night for a Queen suite with a sofa, entertainment area, queen bed with canopy, complementary parking and internet, etc. When I first entered...

We stayed here for three nights on 18th Nov. It was straight off the highway 405, so it was handy getting to places. When we pulled up we were a bit worried that it looked basic and in an area that wasn't in the middle of everything. But after entering it we found the rooms clean and spacious with everything...

Well, it's totally my fault. I thought I was booking the South Bay Torrance Marriott with the real bar and the real restaurant. Instead I accidentally booked the Courtyard by Marriott in a very questionable area of Torrance (such that I have put a chair in front of my door), next to the 405 with loud freeway noise, with a...

Room was dingy, carpet dirty. Bathroom was dirty. The entire room needed a deep cleaning and new paint. I was very disappointed. Won't be returning. Not a 3 star hotel at all. It was about as good as a Motel 6. More

On checking into this Courtyard, I am reminded why Hilton is getting my business recently. I requested a quiet room on the top floor and what do I get – A room on the second floor closest to the both the freeway and the on ramp. As I write this, a motorbike is revving as it waits for the light... More

Looks like the place has had a recent do-over. Nice color scheme. - I had room at the north end, close to the 405. - Double glass sliding doors cut-out the noise immensely. - King size, hard bed (for me) - Lotsa pillows, but needed variety of firmness. All too soft - Refrigerator - Bottled water @ $3.50 each -... More

We stayed here for just one night as we had a professional appointment early in the morning nearby. Room was nice; WiFi was free we had a pretty good connection. We ate in the hotel's bar/restaurant, which ended up being quite expensive for what we ordered. Food was good, though. The only problem I experienced was in finding the hair... More

I had a business trip to the Torrance area and this Courtyard was by far the closest to my client. The hotel is right off the 405 but my inward-facing room was dead quiet. The room itself had the typical Courtyard floor plan but the furnishings were very modern and everything was in good physical condition. The room had a... More
