Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and I enjoyed the beautiful view of the pool area and the ocean from the Huntington tower. The service was friendly and professional, though there were some delays at times. The location couldn't be better, just a short walk to the beach. The dining experience was great overall, except for a few minor issues. The facilities were top-notch.
My stay at the hotel was truly wonderful. The rooms were great and CLEAN, and the staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. However, the location was a bit too remote from Santa Anita Park. The dining experience was excellent, except for a few minor issues. Overall, it was a fantastic stay with great value for money.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and tidy, although a bit dated. The staff was friendly and eager to please. The location was great, close to the beach and shops, but it was a bit far from where I needed to be. The dining experience was mostly good, but a bit overpriced. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were old, dusty, and had worn-out furniture, but they were refreshed and a good size, with a huge shower. The service was nice, polite, and helpful overall, though there were some moments of annoyance. The location was great, offering easy access to downtown and amazing sunset views, but some aspects left me on the fence. The dining experience had both high and low points, with varying prices and quality. However, the facilities were excellent, providing a range of options for guests.
