We had to wait a few minutes as there were other people in front of us. We were eventually helped by a woman. The lobby is nice and bright with several places to sit. The room was a decent size. It had a comfortable king size bed, a nice sitting chair, and a desk with a chair. There was a sliding door that opened up with a small balcony and a distant view of the ocean. The bathroom was clean and typical with a shower tub, toilet and sink in the same room. Overall the Redondo Beach Hotel is a relaxed place to stay when in the area. The people that worked there did their job and the room was comfortable.

We spent two nights here, and overall, the hotel was decent. They have two elevators, one is near the entrance to the room hallway, and the other is in the middle of the hallway as you walk toward the rooms on the other side of the hotel. We stayed on the 3rd floor, which was nice because there was less foot traffic. Our room was actually facing the swimming pool. We didn't get a marina view, but the pool view wasn't bad either! All the staff at the front desk were friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Overall, it was a convenient and comfortable place for our two-night stay in Redondo Beach.

**Good Night, Don't Let the Bed Bugs Bite**…read more Since 2020, The Beach House in Hermosa Beach has been my preferred staycation destination. Although the front desk staff often made me feel more tolerated than celebrated, the stunning views kept me coming back and with no room service available, my interactions with the staff were limited to check-in and check-out, allowing me to enjoy my visits in peace. After my mother passed away in July 2025, I chose this hotel to help me cope during my first birthday, Thanksgiving, and Christmas without her. The beach has always served as my sanctuary. However, during my last stay in December 2025, I unknowingly left with an unwanted holiday gift: BED BUGS. That's right BED BUGS AT THE BEACH HOUSE, HERMOSA BEACH, CALIFORNIA! Throughout 2025, The Beach House was my only travel destination. In January 2026, I began to notice itching, and by February, I was experiencing severe reactions without understanding the cause. One night around 3 a.m., I spotted a bug crawling on my pillow. After killing it, taking a pic and asking Google to identify, I discovered it was a bed bug. Having lived in my home for over 50 years without any bed bug issues, I was shocked. I immediately contacted an exterminator, who confirmed the presence of bed bugs, likely brought in during my December visit. Given that my only travel in the past year was to The Beach House, I knew where they originated. Fortunately, I caught the problem early, but it still cost me $2,000 to eradicate them before they became an infestation. I stayed on the 3rd Floor in an Ocean Front Suite I guess you can say I got more than I bargained for. SHAME ON Beach House Hotel Hermosa Beach for not maintaining a higher standard of care to protect guests from BED BUGS!

So come to the hotel for the ambiance and staff, maybe just get a drink at the restaurant so you can experience the other great people. I will say if it's breakfast that the avocado toast looked amazing. My steak and eggs was so tough I couldn't even chew through it.

I had to park in the garage even though I was told that I would be provided a parking permit, and I thought everything would be good considering that the options for overnight parking in the area are limited, but ultimately that wasn't the case. I told the front desk about it and while they were sympathetic, nothing was done to rectify the situation. I simply moved the trash lid and fence on my own and carried on with a scratched car. Otherwise, the stay was pleasant enough. The rooftop closes at 10pm. Our room didn't have a window but there was a kitchenette sink and mini fridge available.

We stayed at this location yeeeaars ago, when St. Rocke across the street was a hopping' venue, pre-Covid. Kimberly cheerfully checked us around 2pm on a Thursday and we were pleased to see our balcony king room(312) had a slight ocean view. In just the few moments I stepped out, I saw 2 speed boats heading into King Harbor. Sweet! Room was neat and clean and followed traditional HIExpress layouts and styles. Comfortable bed, which was quickly tested with a much needed - NAP! We were able to walk to one of our favorite restaurants at Redondo Pier, Tony's! Yes, it was a 1.4mis away walk, but the weather was great and we've walked this area before, so why not? Most everything we needed was walking distance. While in the area, we were visiting South Coast Botanic Garden about 7 miles away, so we drove to that. Hubs needed some eye drops while there and a handy CVS is next door. There's also a 7-11 a couple blocks up, across PCH. Parking is included and convenient to the front and lobby entrances. The heated pool is on the ground floor, near the lobby, and is covered by the floors above. The sound of kids having fun at the pool wafted up to our room, which is how we discovered the pool! LOL We enjoyed the comp breakfast - BEST CINNAMON ROLLS! The second night, dinner was at a great Mexican restaurant across the street, Rosa's Authentic Mexican Restaurant. Mere steps away is a Phuket Thai restaurant, 4.3 stars, but Hubs doesn't eat anything "exotic"(lol). For our daily walks, there was a FANTASTIC green belt just west of the hotel, a block away, which runs all the way to Manhattan Beach, to the north. LOTS of people and dogs walking around all day. Very safe area and feels like a tight community. We enjoyed coffee and hot chocolate on the balcony in the AM and strolling the neighborhood in the PM. We would definitely return to this conveniently, comfortable and friendly HIExpress. Cheers! "CC"

You call this a boutique hotel? I am writing this review while sweating from what they call a…read more"queen"-sized bed (I'm pretty sure it's just a full bed, because this is definitely smaller than my queen-sized bed.) The AC is out and it will not be back until tomorrow. Our room is on the first floor where people can see in, so we can't close the shades and get air from outside (and our side of the hotel is the parking lot side, so it doesn't even get ocean air or view.) I booked this hotel for a friend's Labor Day weekend wedding nearby expecting a "premium boutique hotel." (Google Gemini's words, not mine.) I booked it from the AmEx travel portal because it's on The Hotel Collection where I get a free night if I book 2 nights, free breakfast, and $100 credit. The wedding recommended other less-nice hotels nearby, but actually with the free night, it came out to be roughly the same price for 3 nights. It has been nothing but disappointing (beginning with the broken AC.) The pool and hot tub were small and middling. The room is dated. The restaurant (with free breakfast and a dinner we got with the $100 credit) was mediocre. You call those steak tacos rare? Where is the flavor? Service was also lacking. Very slow at dinnertime and it wasn't even busy. There's a daily facilities fee ($40) that is supposed to include the hotel bikes (free 2 hours on a regular bike, free 1 hour on an e-bike.) The bikes are very basic and were not that clean. This is a blatant money grab. The common areas are nice. The spa water in the lobby is nice. The cafe closes at 10am which is absurd to me. Another review this year (2026) said parking was $20--now it's $43/night. Wifi is very slow and unreliable (I can't even post this scathing review because it's down again.) Service was fine, albeit unremarkable. I would not come back and I would go to any of the other wedding-recommended hotels before the Portofino because they bill themselves as a nice hotel and have been the complete opposite.

Self parking is $40 a night. The front entrance takes you past the bar that is in the center of the lobby. There is only one real entrance in and out of the hotel which will require that you pass by the bar every time. The check in at night was very reasonable and the staff was polite and helpful. The lobby area is much nicer than the room was. The room was dated and they put us right next to a service room, to which we enjoyed sounds of the staff banging around in there at all hours. While we stayed, there was not a single time that housekeeping was not on our floor. They "cleaned" the same room on our floor at least 4 times during our stay. We felt incredibly creeped out by their housekeeping staff. I would not leave anything in your room that you would want anyone to have access to. We were awoken by the housekeepers multiple times during our stay. There is zero privacy here. Parking garage was partially under construction and requires a key card to get in and out. The partial oven view rooms are truly a partial view of the ocean...and of the roof! There is no screen door on the slider to the balcony. The tub did not drain and was stained horribly. Cheap toilet paper. No duvet covers and the duvets were yellow. Probably haven't been washed for a while. We were awoken after midnight one night to someone on the room pressure washing and a cop outside. When I called the front they told me that it was probably just building maintenance because someone had set off fireworks up there. This hotel may be child-free but you'll enjoy adults who act like children. This also seems to be the hotel where many commercial pilots and staff were staying as well. The worst room service food and drinks I've had. The cocktails were absolutely horrible and I couldn't drink them. This location is very walkable but that's about all the positives.

Though the hotel is older and parking is narrow, our room was very clean with a pretty view of the town and distant ocean from the balcony. The complimentary breakfast varied daily with items like bacon, sausage, and potatoes alongside standard continental options. Plus, Trader Joe's and Pavilions are both within walking distance. Knocking off one star due to the $15/night parking fee, lack of a pool, and only having one elevator. Despite all, this is one of the better Hamptons we've stayed at, and gets a seal of approval.

I then asked if we could at least leave our luggage until the room was ready, and her response was, "Unless you can fit your luggage in a 3x6 storage area." Completely unnecessary and unprofessional. The hotel itself is average at best, but customer service makes all the difference -- and this location failed badly in that department. As a Hilton Diamond member, I expected a much more welcoming and accommodating experience. C'mon Hilton, you can do better. Very disappointed with this location.

The location is unbeatable--right on the beach --and that's what kept us coming back. Since the recent renovation and the addition of the restaurant, however, the experience has changed significantly. It feels like hotel guests have become an afterthought. While I understand why prices have increased, I also expected the level of service to improve or at least remain consistent. Unfortunately, the opposite has happened. During our stay, our room wasn't cleaned as expected, valet service was unavailable when we needed it on multiple occasions, and several staff members came across as rude and inattentive rather than welcoming. These issues made what was once a relaxing, reliable getaway feel frustrating and disappointing. It's unfortunate because this used to be one of our favorite places to stay. We have many wonderful memories here, but based on our most recent experience, we've decided this will be our last stay. I hope management takes guest feedback seriously and refocuses on the hospitality that made this property so special in the first place.
