Top Southern California Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Los Angeles - LAX Airport by IHG

8/10 Good

"Staff was very helpful"

Anaheim Majestic Garden Hotel

8/10 Good

"We arrived on site 10/10/26 around 3pm to plenty of parking (you pay when you’re done with your stay and is added to your bill). The property is well maintained and very pleasing to the senses. A lot of unsupervised children running around so use caution. You need to park to check in as the front canopy area is reserved for the shuttles to the park. It took approximately 15-20 minutes to check in. Unfortunately there is no bell hop service but you can get a luggage cart if you leave your license as security deposit. The property is quite big so be prepared to possibly walk a bit to your room; I broke a sweat as we were on the 3rd floor northwest corner. At the time, there was only 1 elevator operating in the north corridor and is very small. The rooms are definitely roomy. The amenities are good but spendy(it’s a resort). There is a shop/deli near the lobby for light snacks and misc toiletries/remedies. The breakfast buffet in the morning is spendy and there is a regular breakfast menu as well. It’s good if you’re a heavy breakfast person; I am not so I opted for an English Muffin and poached egg with sausage approx $ 13.00. There are dinners with themed buffet options. We indulged on the South of the Border night; not very good options. A meal for 3; breakfast or dinner is roughly 80.00; again, resort prices. We spent 3 nights; very comfortable. We have an Autistic son and he seemed happy. Would we stay again, YES!! The shuttle is a great service as well. Included."
