The completely unmonitored driveway entrance to parking lot.
Kristi F.

The hotel is located in a central area very convenient to Great Park, where my daughter had a softball tournament. Staff were friendly and check in was smooth. Even though we checked in late (9pm), we were provided my Gold amenities and upgrade without issue. The room was clean. It's a bit pricey but you are paying for the Hilton brand and service. As an added touch, they had a festive pumpkin patch photo op display in the lobby. Knocking off one star for the parking situation. There is a $35 per night parking charge and it turns out the parking lot is not secure as there is an unmonitored entrance anyone can enter. We would definitely stay here again but would skip the added parking fee.

Lobby

Decent hotel and very close to our SNA office. Close to the spectrum but need an uber or it's about a 30 min long walk. It's clean with friendly front desk staff. The rooms are spacious with comfortable beds and pillows. The bathroom sinks are kinda small. The WiFi is good enough for work. The fitness center is decent with free weights, some cardio equipment and a cable weight machine. I didn't use the pool or any other facilities. Prices is very reasonable.

Food is Great! Service is Swell! Ambiance is Fantastic and Terrific! Thank You DoubleTree, Everything it was all Delicious!

Solid hotel in the business district of Irvine. The rooms were roomie and the cafe had good coffee and decent breakfast sandwiches. The bar staff was really nice and made a good Manhattan. My company had a meeting here and used their catering options which included one of the best and spiciest salsa verdes I have had, that wasn't homemade. I was rather surprised by this and it made the meal even better. Id definitely stay here again. The only reason it doesn't get a fifth star is because the website shows that it has a shuttle to John Wayne airport when they in fact did not when I was there. They also said they had a shuttle to South Coast plaza and the manager said they did not but I showed the website to her. She apologized and it was clear in her face that she really didn't know it was on their site.

On a Saturday late afternoon in August, my hubby and I stayed one night here next to 133 highway and close to Irvine spectrum. I went inside and got my room key and the hotel clerk gave me free chocolate cookies. I had to use the room key for parking lot $28 a night. The lobby is nice with tables, bar, restaurant, mini market. Our room was 416 and it looked clean with a firm bed and sofa. The bathroom was clean and good water pressure. The next day we went downstairs for breakfast buffet $32 and it had plenty of people eating the buffet. There was a scramble egg station, bread, juice, fruit, yogurt, eggs, bacon, French toast, sausages, oatmeal, potatoes with onions. I got full after 2 servings of food. Nice hotel stay for one night,

Staff was below standard, and the room was unsatisfactory. Everything from ripped up furniture to poor bathroom fixtures and the tub was very loud when standing inside to shower. We both thought we'd fall through if we stayed for longer than 2-3 mins. We've stayed at multiple DoubleTree Hotels and this was by far the worst. Definitely NOT going back.

Would NOT stay here again…read more We came to Orange County for Labor Day weekend, and honestly, this hotel was pretty disappointing. The location is great and it's really close to Irvine Spectrum, but unfortunately, the hotel itself just isn't worth what we paid. We spent around $1,100 for 3 days, and I expected a lot more. The thing that REALLY set me off was the restaurant experience. I ordered a cheeseburger using the QR code in the room. The restaurant called and asked if I wanted it delivered. I said no, thank you because I didn't want to pay the extra $3 delivery fee plus the $3.24 service charge, before even considering a tip. So I WALKED DOWN and picked up my own food. When I got there, the guy printed my receipt and said, "Please sign this and add a tip." I put $0 because, again, I literally scanned a QR code, ordered my own food, walked downstairs and picked it up myself. As he looked at the receipt, he said "Thanks, buddy" in a very obviously sarcastic way because I didn't tip. Seriously?! I'm sorry, but I'm not tipping someone for an order I placed myself and physically went downstairs to pick up. Then there's housekeeping. The paper in the room says housekeeping is every day and even tells you to leave your towels on the floor if you want them replaced. So we did exactly that... And they never came. So what's the point of putting that information in the room if you're not actually going to provide the service? Pros * Very close to Irvine Spectrum * Good location * AC works great * Breakfast was good Cons * Cell service is REALLY bad, and the Wi-Fi isn't much better * Beds are hard and uncomfortable * Showers were barely warm -- definitely not hot * Housekeeping says daily on the flyer... nope * Supposedly fresh towels every day... nope * Room service/housekeeping wasn't great * Dirty/used glasses weren't replaced * Expensive for what you actually get Overall, $1,100 for 3 days is way too much for this experience. The location is convenient, but that's about where the positives end for me. I would not book this hotel again.

Top tier customer service where pets are loved!…read more My group of three adults and one dog stayed here for three nights. I checked in early on the Hilton app and selected my room of choice. This is the one of the few times where my selected room was the actual room I received upon arrival. Each time we needed assistance, the attendants quickly tended to us without issue. We arrived at around 9pm. The attendants at the front desk gave such great customer service. Their welcome/check-in spiel was clear, informative, and did not come off as rushed. When they saw that I was staying with my dog, they immediately invited us to bring my dog to the front for her to select a complimentary toy and treat. A first out of all the Homewood Suites I've stayed at! The free breakfast selections were great - eggs, sausage, waffles, potatoes, cereal, yogurt, oatmeal, toast, bagels, etc. There is a game room with billiards, giant Jenga, Connect 4, and shuffleboard. The pool area has a ping pong table and giant chess. The 24/7 fitness room is spacious with working equipment. I would definitely stay here again for the customer service alone. Thanks for making our visit such an incredible experience.

Youtube casting worked perfectly. Plenty of parking right in front of the hotel. It all just worked out perfectly. Thank you. Oh, the 4 star is because the floor was dirty. My baby was crawling around in the room and had black hands and knees. He was eating someone else's hair so didn't feel clean. The window was really dirty. Also the air conditioner sounded like an airplane was getting ready to lift off.

I was surprised with a night stay here at the Marriot last week. Its a beautiful hotel. They dont…read morecover parking even if you stay here. Check in was kind of annoying. We were sent to the wrong room. So we had to goto the 10th floor. Tried getting into the wrong room, then had to go all the way back downstairs to get the right room. The elevator takes forever to get to the floor we were on. But its weird, because going up and down it goes quickly. But takes forever to actually get into the elevator. It was pretty hot (for Irvine) outside. And you definitely felt it in the hallways. It was hot and stuffy. The pillows for the bed was terrible. Caused me to have a kink in my neck in the morning. Our included breakfast in the AM was ok. They used liquid eggs which just isnt that great. Dont get me wrong though, theres a lot of things I enjoyed about my stay here, including: The room looked very posh and high end. AC works amazingly. The bed is very comfortable, you just sink right into it. I really enjoyed how stable and fixed the bed is. The shower pressure us amazing. Good water pressure. Nice fixtures. Customer service. They really bend over backwards for their guests. Able to get some more complimentary water bottles from the front desk. Even the people working in the breakfast room were super helpful and nice. YNK- this is their speakeasy. A must visit!! Great drinks. Exceptional customer service. See my review of YNK for further details!! Lots of things to do on premise. Beautiful pool. Multiple eating places. They have a top golf room. I did enjoy their coffee machines in the breakfast room. Massviely large parking lot. You have to badge in and out so pretty secure Id say. Overall a very nice hotel to stay at!!

I booked this hotel because it's only 10 minutes from the airport. If convenience is your top…read morepriority, as it was for me this time, this hotel is fine. However, if you're also looking for comfort, I wouldn't recommend it. I was "upgraded" to a corner room on the 17th floor, the highest floor, but it was still just a standard room with two double beds. There were no special amenities or toiletries provided beyond the wall-mounted shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The water pressure was extremely low, making it difficult to enjoy a refreshing shower after a long day or to start the morning feeling refreshed. The towels were rough, and I never really felt clean after using them. The hotel itself is dated, and the rooms reflect that. To make matters worse, I had a terrible night's sleep. The room was either too cold or too hot, even after adjusting the AC, and the beds seemed to trap so much heat that I tossed and turned all night. If you're considering staying at this Marriott, keep in mind that it feels more like a budget-friendly, lower-tier Marriott property than a hotel you'd choose for a comfortable stay. If you're not particularly picky and just need a convenient place to sleep near the airport, it will probably do the job. But if comfort and a good night's sleep matter to you, I'd look elsewhere.

There were plenty of options, and everything was fresh and well stocked. What really stood out to me was the staff. Every employee I encountered was friendly, helpful, and genuinely hospitable.

I had a long day of driving due to seeing customers, and really needed a nap before having dinner with a customer later in the evening. I used digital check in and to my surprise, my room was ready by noon (well before the 4pm check in). I was not in the best mood due to the 90+ degree heat and all the driving I had to do when I arrived, the staff at the front desk were quick to help me with a parking pass and I liked that there were plenty of parking spaces (and glad the parking spaces were in a structure that is covered). The room itself was clean and nice. I appreciated the extra towels and plenty of pillows on the bed. I had a very pleasant nap before my next meeting with my customer. The extra outlets everywhere is much appreciated, and the wifi was plenty fast for me to do a bit of work in the room. I came back later that night and slept very well, as the AC was plenty strong even with the Irvine heat. Breakfast in the morning was excellent, I liked that all the tables were clean, and there were plenty of hot and cold options for breakfast. Along with plenty of coffee. I had to leave early in the morning, so I appreciate the very early breakfast hours of 6am on M-F and 6:30am on weekends. I can't really think of anything wrong with my stay, I didn't interact with the staff much as I was so tired and stressed from the work day. The only thing I can comment on is if the parking spaces can be a little bigger, my rental car fit just fine but I noticed the SUVs and pickup trucks were having trouble fitting in the spaces. And of course, $37 a night for parking is a bit steep.

Our room and the lobby were pretty clean, as expected from a Garden Inn hotel. The receptionists were very kind and welcoming. The pool and gym were clean too. What I dislike: - I called in advance to ask if I'm allowed to check in earlier than the usual 3 pm. I would understand if no room is available yet, but I was told that I'm allowed to check in 1 hour earlier than 3 pm at the additional cost of $25. That fee is rather unnecessary and pitiful to me. The nickel-and-diming is big turn-off. - Parking cost of $30/night seems excessive; I believe $10-20/night is more reasonable and would encourage guests to stay for more nights. - I was fraudulently charged an extra $9 because someone not in my party bought from the hotel shop and charged my room. However, I'm grateful that the receptionist resolved this matter with me timely during checkout process. I'll stay in this hotel again if the price per night +parking cost is within my budget.
