“Very Pleased!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

This hotel compares favorably to some of the finest hotels (e.g. See my review of the Carlton-Ritz in Phoenix.). The rooms are spacious with elegant furniture. The breakfast buffet is extensive (great scrambled eggs; sausage; cereals; yogurt; variety of breads and sweets; fresh fruit; coffee; tea varieties; juice). The in-room coffee bar includes a mini refrigerator, a microwave oven and, of course, a single-cup coffee/tea machine with coffees, teas, and condiments. A flat-screen TV with HBO, in-room free wifi, iron & ironing board, and hair dryer are also included. Finally, we asked for an inside room (away from the freeway) and were graciously accommodated. Great place and great people!

Room Tip: Ask for a room away from the freeway.

“Used to Love It”

Have stayed here multiple times. The last time we stayed, it was extremely dirty! My socks were black. I was very disappointed.

Dear Kelly O -

Thank you very much for your candid review of Ayres Hotel Seal Beach. I was so disappointed to learn that your stay with us was anything less than exceptional.

Our hotel is known for its unique European-inspired decor as well as our friendly service and cleanliness. We have a rigorous cleaning process performed by a dedicated and hard working housekeeping team. I am truly sorry if the cleanliness of the hotel did not live up to your expectations or our very high standards. I will be reviewing your comments with the housekeeping team immediately to ensure against anything even remotely like what you describe in the future.

Again, I apologize for any inconvenience or distress caused and I hope you will choose to be our guest again soon.

Sincerely,

Bill Dolan
General Manager

Thank you for opperating such a first class organization. The Ayers Hotel is one of the best I've ever experienced; from the pleasant (professional) staff at the front desk, to the beautiful room, and the fabulous breakfast, I felt as though I was visiting the home of a close friend. Thank you again.

“Ayres Hotel at Seal Beach -- A gem among hotels”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

The atmosphere at the Ayres Hotel at Seal Beach was very comfortable and pleasant, with courteous and helpful front desk staff. Our room was spacious, clean and contained everything we needed. Beds were very comfortable, Breakfast was much more than expected -- delicious, good variety, and very filling! The hotel's proximity to the highway made it easier for my family to get to our vacation sightseeing destinations. I highly recommend this hotel and would not hesitate to stay at other Ayres locations in Southern California.
