Top The Observatory Hotel Reviews

Sonesta Select Huntington Beach Fountain Valley

6/10 Okay

"There was kind of an odd smell in the hallway and our shower didn’t drain so we had to turn it off when we shampooed let the water run down turn it back on the beds were insanely comfortable, and the air conditioner worked really well."

Hilton Orange County/Costa Mesa

6/10 Okay

"Make sure to read about the property and the fees for parking, was surprised at check in that the property charges $45 a day to park and the parking garage are very small parking spots. Instead of holding a deposit they charge you $75 a day and your charges up front not just a hold on your card."

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Costa Mesa / Newport Beach

4/10 Poor

"The room was in bad shape and the explanation offered was, that was what you would get when booked through an aggregator and need to pay additional dollars if looking for better options. Cut short my stay and checked out. Yet to hear from the Hotel or Expedia on a refund for the remaining days but no luck."

Sonesta ES Suites Huntington Beach Fountain Valley

8/10 Good

"Stayed in the 1-bedroom suite for 6 days. The bed was comfortable; however, the sofa bed was very worn, with stains and rips, and the springs sounded really worn out. We ended up buying an inflatable bed for my daughter, and she much preferred that over the sofa bed. The included breakfast was excellent and very much appreciated. There was plenty of parking, although it did cost $10 per day. If you stay at this property, be aware that there are a lot of guests with dogs. There was quite a bit of dog poop on the grass, so be careful where you walk. The only issue we had was during checkout around 6 a.m. The computer was down, or the staff member could not log in to the system, so we had to wait while she walked to the other hotel property to check us out and print our invoice. It was a small inconvenience since we were hurrying to the airport. Overall, we would stay again and can recommend this property to families."
