Top Costa Mesa Hotel Reviews

Desert Palms Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast is always good and the team working in the breakfast area is very friendly. Salsa is excellent. The rooms are nice and clean. Beds and pillows are comfortable. We stayed in a suite on the 5th floor and it was not as spacious as the other floors but it was still nice to have the extra space. It was just tucked into an odd corner. My son likes the pin trading at the front desk. Easy walk to the parks."

"Beautiful place"

Clementine Hotel & Suites Anaheim

10/10 Excellent

"We loved staying here! It's a bit old, the rooms could use an update and some deep cleaning, but it's really a fun vibe and the bi level loft suite with a kitchen is fantastic for families. The complimentary breakfast was really great too! The walk to Disneyland was about 20 mins. Doable but kind of far. We didn't mind though. Would definitely recommend this hotel!"

Ayres Hotel Costa Mesa/Newport Beach

"Beautiful ! Helpful staff. Enjoyed our stay"
