Top California Hotel Reviews

Loews Hollywood Hotel

8/10 Good

"Everything was excellent (the staff, locations and etc.)! The hotel just needs to be updated a bit!"

Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay here was everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, we loved how perfectly located the hotel was in downtown San Francisco. We were able to walk to so many great restaurants, and having the California Street cable car just a short walk away made exploring the city such a memorable experience. We also really appreciated having the option to park our car at the hotel. Some days we drove to attractions outside the city center, and other days we simply left the car parked and enjoyed walking everywhere. It gave us the best of both worlds. The room was spacious and comfortable, but the highlight was definitely the incredible view from the 17th floor. Looking out over the city each morning and seeing the lights at night made our stay feel extra special. We were also impressed by the six elevators—they were incredibly fast, so we never had to wait long to get to our room. This hotel truly made our trip to San Francisco even more enjoyable. Between the amazing location, beautiful views, spacious rooms, and convenient parking, we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. We highly recommend it to anyone planning a visit to San Francisco!"

Clementine Hotel & Suites Anaheim

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I stayed for 2 nights to go to an Angels game and to go to Disneyland. The room was clean and comfortable. Ramon was so helpful. He really made us feel welcome. The pool was being remodeled so we couldn't use it. The new furniture looked amazing. They had a good variety of items for breakfast."

Anaheim Majestic Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was our first time booking a hotel stay for Disneyland. We normally stay with family in Winchester and make the drive out to the park but decided to try something differently this time around. I have to stay, we made the right decision booking a stay at this hotel. The kids loved everything about the hotel; from the pool, to the arcade room, and being able to view the fireworks every night outside our hotel room. The one thing I love was the hotel shuttle that takes us directly to the entrance of Disneyland. We have been to Disneyland at least 2 times a year for the past 4 years. It’s such a hassle to find parking, then haul all of our belongings, and the kids stroller through the security, then onto the tram. With the shuttle, we would just take the kids with us into the shuttle. The driver told us to leave what we needed on the stroller and he just pushed the stroller onto the shuttle. No need to close up the stroller and carry it like how we did on the tram. We are planning another trip to Disneyland at the end of this year and will definitely book a stay here again."
