Very clean and quaint room with great amenities. Far more than I expected! I've stayed in many hotels, and this one is definitely one of the best. Great breakfast, and fresh flowers in our room. Great staff, too! I would LOVE to stay here again! More

My parents came to visit and stayed here...it was fantastic! The staff is extremely friendly, they clean the rooms to perfection everyday, and they have a nice continental breakfast each morning. My parents stayed in the room with a deck and a fireplace, which was wonderful. I cannot recommend this hotel enough. If you are looking for a classic beach... More

This is a great hotel! Concierge John gave us free admission tickets incl. complimentary drinks for a cool local bar. The room was well-sized and the decor was nice (loved the little surfers on the bathroom wallpaper). During the day you can go to the kitchen next to the reception and help yourself with coffee, tea and snacks. Freshly baked... More

Had a 2 night stay this past weekend in a standard room w/ queen bed. For the price, it was a nice place to stay, but the #1 ranking is definitely only based on it's quality-to-value ratio. Some good impressions: - The location is perfect for a short getaway - giving short walking distance access to great beaches, boardwalk, pier,... More

Our long weekend was taking us to Burbank one day and Temecula the next. This was a great spot to be able to get to both locations and still be near the beach so that we could take hour long strolls along the beach or the boardwalk before or after our daily trips. Helpful staff. Small but nice rooms. Good... More

Doing business in Orange County offers a couple of possibilities: stay at the chain hotels adjacent to the office(s); or stay at the beach. I like the laid-back style of Newport Beach. Yes, it is a wealthy neighborhood, but there's a great surfing under-culture and everybody is of a certain age with sand in their hair and in their socks... More

This is our favorite beach get away. Walking distance to numerous great restaurants. We even did a several block pub crawl. The pier is a couple blocks away. It is reasonably priced for what you get. Clean, great service, best continental breakfast ever. Antique style elevator is pretty cool too. We have stayed both in summer and winter. Love it.... More

A friend and I stayed in the suite at this hotel last month and it was a great value and location. The staff there is helpful and friendly, especially the woman who helped me with the reservation and assisted us while we were there for two nights. It felt safe and comfy and very clean and they serve a hearty... More

I have been to the Bay Shores Peninsula twice now and will definately become a regular! My first trip was in June with my Grandson and I just wanted someplace close to the beach that we could walk to. This was perfect! Newport is not crowded and a very easy drive from where I live in Las Vegas. The second... More
