Hotels near Staples, Seal Beach

I always feel comfortable here and there is a beautiful view from the front of the hotel over looking the marina and the city. it's a great place to hideaway and relax.

The price is right and the hygiene is good.

We hadn't planned on a stay in Long Beach, but were sent to this hotel by the cruise line after testing positive for COVID in the middle of our 14 day cruise. Along with several other passengers, we were required to complete the remaining days of a 10-day quarantine when we got off the ship. When I found out where we were being sent, I went online and looked at reviews. I was very disturbed about all the negativity, especially since we weren't going to be allowed to leave our room. There was no restaurant or provided breakfast on site, so we had to use Instacart, DoorDash, etc. to have things left at our door. IHG/Holiday Inn is one of the chains we use regularly and are used to things like breakfast being included, so this was missed for sure. As for other issues, yes the A/C was noisy but we were glad to have it. There was also a lot of outside noise on the side of the building where we were (traffic and other things). However, our room was clean and we had plenty of towels. I did have to ask for extra washcloths and pods for the Keurig which were quickly provided. They also gave us a menu for food delivery that was limited but inexpensive. We ordered from that menu three different times and food was good considering that nothing delivered ends up being as hot as I'd like and the rooms only had a fridge, no microwave. During our stay, I talked to at least 3 different people (Daisy, Yvette, and Elizabeth) with guest services and all were pleasant, patient and helpful with all my questions and concerns. One of my questions had to do with transportation options to LAX. I had looked at Uber and other options, but prices were all over the place. They told me they could arrange a cab for us when we were ready to leave and that it would only take about 10 minutes for the cab to arrive. We chose this option and are glad we did. The Yellow Cab charged a flat rate to LAX which was cheaper than all the other prices I had seen. So while it wasn't our choice to stay here, all in all, it wasn't as bad as I expected from others' reviews.

Clean as expected. Iron and hair dryer not working. I had to call the front desk for replacement. Took 30 minutes for the request and needs constant follow-up. Morning breakfast such a disappointment with no plates as claimed they ran out of stock. We can't take the bacon as it's like a plastic synthetic I can't explain and did not consume for my worry can't be digested. This was just my second night. More to come!!! The morning male supervisor or manager was rude and not accommodating in response to inquiry. Such a frustration!!

Hotel was right at the beach, maid service was great. This hotel did not offer food service other than breakfast. Very clean and friendly registration personnel.

This hotel was great for our stay here in California. The room was spacious and clean and the bed was extremely comfortable after a long day out whether around Los Angeles or a 17 hour day in Disneyland. The fridge was great bigger than we expected. We managed to store lots of bottled water and a few 2L bottles of juices with all our yoghurts etc for the mornings and during the day. Fridge is a great size for trips to Target which is across the street less than 5 min walk. Bathroom and other parts in the room we couldn’t fault had everything we needed for our stay to make it comfortable. As we left they were re decorating the halls, apart from all of this we wish there was stairs to each floor instead of just getting the lift up as we were in the 3rd floor room 355. Stairs would have been nice inside the blocks as there is only a fire exit stairwell to leave the hotel you cannot get to your room via stairs. Also great for parking a hire car as this hotel doesn’t charge for overnight parking too one of the reasons we chose this as our main location to go back and forth from saving us $350/$400 compared to competitor hotels around LA.

Very good. My friend booked it for a business trip. The staff was attentive and enthusiastic. I will stay here again next time! 🎊🎊. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The surrounding area is safe, the service of the guy with the braces at the front desk is super enthusiastic, and there are small cakes as a gift at check-in, which is actually warm

The K mattress & pillows were very comfortable. The room was very spacious & quiet. Cynthia from front desk was very accommodating for my request & had a great stay. The staff were friendly, courteous & efficient. The gated covered parking came in handy for the storm & I appreciate they have 3 well functioning luggage carts for guest use. Gateway Towne Center is within walking, 1 block to Best Buy, Marshalls, etc.

Pros Great location to cruise port Cruise port shuttle ($10/person) Dining room had a great burger and breakfast Large clean room Well stocked 24 hour Market place in lobby Cons Price- quotes were $500/night. I know this is an IHG hotel but the nightly rate seems excessive. I guess it’s all about supply and demand and you are really are paying for the location. We happened to “stumble” across an incredible price through a 3rd party service provider and ended up staying the night for more than 60% off the hotel quoted price. Please note that there is nothing inherently wrong with this hotel. It checked all our boxes in the end.
