Top Costa Mesa Hotel Reviews

Clarion Hotel Anaheim Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Parking was pricey...."

Hotel Lulu, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We had an absolutely amazing stay at Hotel Lulu and couldn’t have been happier with our experience! From check-in to check-out, every staff member we encountered was warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. The hotel has a fun, modern vibe, and everything was exceptionally clean and beautifully maintained. Our room was beautiful, spacious, and the beds and pillows were incredibly comfortable—we all slept so well after long days at Disneyland! Housekeeping was excellent as well. Anytime we requested service, our room was cleaned promptly and thoroughly, and we always came back to a fresh, spotless room. One of the biggest reasons we chose Hotel Lulu was the location, and it did not disappoint. It’s only a 13-minute walk to both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure, so we never had to worry about driving or parking. There are also plenty of restaurants, coffee shops, Walgreens, CVS, and other conveniences just steps from the hotel. My two daughters, ages 14 and 10, had the best time and absolutely loved staying here. They kept saying how much they liked the hotel, and it made our Disneyland vacation even more special. Hotel Lulu offers incredible value for the price. If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable, stylish hotel close to Disneyland without paying Disney resort prices, this is definitely the place to stay. We will absolutely be staying here again on our next trip to Anaheim. Thank you, Hotel Lulu, for such a wonderful experience. Highly recommended!"

Clementine Hotel & Suites Anaheim

10/10 Excellent

"We were able to check a bit early which really made the whole trip run so smooth ! The staff were friendly and helpful when we asked for more towels. Our group always felt safe and we were able to walk to the house of blues for a concert and back with no problems at all a very easy 10 minute walk."

Motel 6 Anaheim Maingate

10/10 Excellent

"I literally stay here every time I'm in Southern California. It's become my go-to hotel. The short walk to Disneyland is hard to beat, and it's easy to get to from the freeway. The location is perfect whether I'm in town for an Angels game, a Ducks game, Disney, a car show, or just spending a day at the beach. I've stayed here many times over the years, and Motel 6 Main Gate is always my first choice."
