For a great dining experience go downstairs to 21 ocean Restaurant. Old school leather leather booths and Tuxedo Waiters. Food is very good and they pour a good drink. I highly recommend Dorman's.

A Unique, Historic Charmer
We picked this hotel for it's central location on the coast but it turned out to be so much more. Every room is unique and the hotel itself is a historic, beautiful gem. We loved the character! The staff is fabulous and gave us a great orientation to the property to make sure we were comfortable and welcomed. They provide a continental breakfast and the restaurant on the ground floor has a fabulous Happy Hour and dinner. Everything we wanted was walkable and as it's very difficult driving around this part of Newport Beach that was crucial to our relaxation. There were quirks to be expected in an older building and you won't have the amenities of a modern hotel but we could not have been happier with our stay.

Nice but a little noisy
It is a wonderful location overlooking the ocean. It is a little noisy being right next to the main beach parking lot. Also our room was right across from the lobby check in and you can hear the gal talking on the phone and to people like she is in the room. Not as private as we are used to.

Well located, unique boutique hotel
Great location, friendly staff and unique rooms. As noted in other reviews, there can be some noise on weekends. We knew this going in and enjoyed our stay. On Sunday morning, there was a nice farmer’s market outside the door at the pier. If you are looking for cookie-cutter rooms, this is not the place for you. Included parking is a big bonus.
