Hotel Royal exceeded our expectations…read more We stayed here for one night before our cruise. The service was excellent. Our room was super cute! Very comfy bed, great AC! Bathroom a little small but easy to work with. They had a fridge and coffee maker. In the lobby they have a small room in the back behind the receptionist that has tea, coffee, utensils and other things you may need on your trip! Plus it's a cute area to sit in the morning or while waiting for your Uber. They have plenty of water in the lobby. Bottled and ice water from a large glass dispenser. There are bikes available for use. It's a pretty great location - we were able to walk to really incredible restaurants, and it was super close to our cruise port!!! We highly recommend this place and would book it again on our next Long Beach stay!

Avoid odd hours, as hot water will take awhile to get to you. If a cold shower doesn't wake you up, enjoy complimentary coffee in their communal kitchen (served at 7am). Thin walls: - you can hear street noise and people talking on the sidewalk - if you have neighbors, you can hear them getting it ON (good for them!), but thankfully not any conversation Lobby closes at 11pm. When I booked via a third-party platform (to save money), that platform told me the lobby closes at 10pm. Shout out to Mario and Diana for helping me during my stay.

I put a lot of trust in their word since they've previously stayed at this specific hotel a few times and they choice was perfect. Driving from the bay to Southern California was a whole trip in itself with two kids and the last thing we wanted to do was to rush the moment we got in the car and into the hotel. That being said, we decided to stay two nights prior to embarkation day. We wanted to walk in, get settled after the 7 (=/-) hour drive and relax. The hotel had everything we needed - a full kitchen, a clean and perfectly running shower, clean and comfortable beds and a wonderful view. The proximity of the hotel to the port was perfect. All eight of us were able to get our belongings together and not stress on getting parking. The continental breakfast was great as well. The staff was beyond amazing and during one of our nights we were able to watch the UFC fight downstairs in the lobby with a crew of construction workers. One of the staff attendants gave my girls crayons and coloring paper. She sat down and helped them with their art and it was honestly precious.

I really want to give this place more than 3 stars, and in reality it probably deserves only 2. But…read moreI had a few great customer service interactions that won me over, even in a not so accommodating situation. Upon a busy check in right about 5:00 PM on a Saturday in the summer time, we were notified that the AC in the hotel is out. (Side note it had been out since Tuesday and no one notified us until now) We were traveling with our bulldog so this was a huge deal and I immediately asked to be placed at another Hilton property. Art at the front desk was very kind and accommodating. He offered a room with a window that opens as well as a patio, so there would be a constant airflow. He also said if we weren't happy we could come back down for a full refund. Art in general was beyond gracious. We chose to stay, as the sun was going down, and when you're close to water it gets pretty cool even in the hottest months. We had some drinks at the bar and tried to make the best of it. The bartender was also kind and working hard in the heat! All was well considering the circumstances. Until midnight when all of the building alarms started going off every few minutes. We were only staying one night for a relaxing day away with our dog on the beach, and because of this property we definitely did not receive that. I've had to open a case for a refund, which seems crazy to me. As an honors member I definitely thought it would be offered without hesitation, and possibly even more compensation. Unfortunately this was not the situation. For a property with a great location, it needs a deep cleaning and a few updates immediately. With that, I'd consider returning.

I wish the hotel had a more comprehensive restaurant or something as it is far from anything good (unless you want chains like PF Changs or Island's). ' The only other note I had was that I wasn't pleased with their parking situation. Its an underground lot but most of the spots in it are reserved for not the hotel and the spots are tiny. Two cars can't drive down the aisles at once because they're tight and it makes for a stressful parking experience, especially at $30 a night.

For my birthday, I decided to try the Fairmont Spa, and I was honestly blown away. This was one of the best massages I've ever had. My therapist's technique was absolutely incredible, and I loved that she incorporated stretching throughout the massage. It made the experience feel so unique and restorative. The spa itself is beautiful. While it doesn't have as many amenities as some of the larger spas, the quality of the massage is what matters most to me, and it absolutely delivered. My only tiny wish is that the robes had pockets! The staff explained the thoughtful design choice behind them, which I appreciated, but I still found myself wishing for pockets. I'll definitely be back. I'm so happy to have such an amazing spa right here in my own neighborhood!

The balcony provided a nice space for reading and watching the city life below. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I initially booked a room with 2 queens and they fixed it no problem. The rooftop has a cool view of the city, especially at night. The hotel has ample parking - spaces under the building and directly next to it. One thing to keep in mind - if you are staying in downtown Long Beach, it's a big city with big city sights and sounds. You aren't staying in the country. Great experience for my wife and I.

Hotel Mai is a quaint boutique hotel near the convention center. I booked it at for a conference…read moreand it was much cheaper than the main venue and it fit my needs well. The neighborhood is a typical downtown area and can be seedy but the hotel itself is secure with the main entrance by key card only at night and the elevators also require your key card to be operational. My room, a single king, was clean and in good shape. There is a large TV, desk area, adequate closet, and mini-fridge with Keurig machine in the room. The iron is of high quality and perfect for pressing my clothes for my meetings. The bathroom is very nice with a Toto Washlet that are common in Japan. The room's thermostat, however, is in Centigrade so do brush up on your metric system! My only real criticism was that the room safe did not open all the way as the closet door blocked its full opening. The top floor has a nice sitting area to relax and there is a quaint workout room and pool area. There is also a sauna which I did not use. Upon checking out, I had a nice conversation with Yogi, the owner, who told me a little about the place and how it was named. Overall, my stay at the Hotel Mai was a wonderful one and I would certainly go back the next time I need to stay in Long Beach!

The hotel is located on the corner of a busy street, but I didn't hear any outside noise. Hotel is conveniently located next to a mall, so it was easy to find food options within walking distance. I didn't get to experience the breakfast due to an early flight, but was given a brown bag breakfast (with muffin, whole apple, peanut butter and bottled water). There was an airport shuttle and our driver was gracious enough to take us as soon as we checked out. All in all it was a good experience staying here but I give it one star off due to price. I paid around $300 for one night that seemed quite high for an airport hotel.

Very close to LGB if you're arriving and/or departing from there and central to nearby cities. Great places to eat all around + near to Wholefoods. I stayed during a busy eventful weekend and it seemed that I was provided the last available room in the hotel that hadn't been used in who knows how long.
