"The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect right near the beach and walking distance to the fun zone and shops. The Continental breakfast was ok. The room itself was clean but , was very hot and noisy at night. I think this hotel is geared towards a younger crowd but definitely worth a visit."

Holiday Inn Express Newport Beach by IHG

Holiday Inn Express Newport Beach by IHG

8/10 Good
"Friendly staff. I had to drive back to my friend’s beach house because I forgot my Id and debit card they comped the parking permit you need since I had to drive back and forth. The breakfast was pretty good, hot and clean. The only thing that was an issue was I left my chips out on the table in my room and woke up to ants everywhere. Which I HATE ants! They came and cleaned it up when I came back to my room. The beds are pretty comfortable too."
