Friday night and the place is bustling. People walking about, guests with noisy kids waiting to…read morecheck in, two people holding everyone else up, and a crazy person that the cops had to be called on. Welcome to the Holiday Inn! Such a busy hotel should've had more than just one person working the front desk. The guy was friendly and helpful, but waiting in line took way too long and there were many people queued behind us. Things were better once the wife and I made it to our room. We had a king suite that was large and quite comfortable. There was a sofa and table, armchair, long desk, two TVs, good sized fridge that got really cold, microwave, coffee maker, safe, and more. The bed was comfortable and the blackout curtains worked well. We heard some noise through the wall but it wasn't excessive. The free WiFi was fast enough for streaming. Lots of power outlets and USB charging ports. The bathroom was less nice. Water easily got on the floor and counter when showering and using the sink, respectively, and the low-flow shower wasn't enjoyable to use. Parking is free. The hotel decor is refined and the elevators arrive quickly. Amenities include self-service laundry, a pool and spa, and a fitness center. No free breakfast, but inside the hotel is an upscale Chinese restaurant that also serves American fare. The fitness center has several cardio machines, a weight machine, and free weights up to 50 lbs. Some of the equipment needs maintenance. For instance, the weight bench was noticeably wobbly with some loose bolts, which is an accident waiting to happen (I did inform the front desk). Our stay was covered by our free night from our IHG credit card. Overall, this place has more positives than negatives and I can see myself staying here again. Hopefully some of the minor nuisances and safety issues will be addressed by then.

I attended a banquet at the Holiday Inn in El Monte. Since the event had not started yet, several…read moremembers of our group, including some elderly guests, sat in the restaurant lobby while we waited. Unfortunately, we were treated very poorly by a member of the security staff. He informed us that the lobby was not associated with the restaurant and that we were not allowed to remain there. I understand that the hotel may have policies regarding the use of the lobby, and I respect those rules. However, what was disappointing was the way the message was delivered. The security staff spoke to us in a harsh and unwelcoming tone, making us feel as though we were an inconvenience rather than potential guests. Hospitality is not only about enforcing policies--it is also about treating people with courtesy and respect. When your guests include elderly individuals, a little patience and kindness can make a significant difference. There are many professional and respectful ways to explain hotel policies without making people feel unwelcome. I hope hotel management will provide additional customer service training to its security staff so that future visitors receive the level of hospitality that guests should reasonably expect from a hotel.

I'm praying one day they come back. The convention was held at the Sheraton San Gabriel which was the perfect size for a smaller con without being too crowded and without being too oversized. There's free parking if you're okay walking from the 99 Ranch Market plaza or if you find it in the close by residential area. Looks nice inside, the panel rooms were smaller, but accommodate the smaller attendee population too. Internet connection for the event was fine. Acoustics in the ballroom and panel rooms, along with AV set up was good. Lobby area and some just standard hotel backdrop were perfect for photos. Love that it's walking distance from lots of delicious food options. Staff were friendly and venue was nice and clean. Restrooms were clean each and every time.

Overall the hotel is definitely clean and I guess that's why people have bigger events there. We didn't opt for room cleaning but the staff were responsive when we needed more towels or toilet paper, etc. Instead of the $20-24 for parking, we decided to park in the neighborhood. If you go to the San Gabriel Police Station, you must pay for a permit to park overnight, you register by your license plate. We were able to find residential street parking close to the hotel. We had lounge access on the 6th Floor, which was nice to have a place to hang out and grab some drinks and snacks. They breakfast and afternoon Hors d'oeuvres were ok, the hot items seems like stuff they can easily heat up, but not bad. The best thing is they have a self-serve coffee machine which was pretty good. The reason I'm not giving the place 5 stars are issues that others have reviewed about the wifi and tv connectivity. We opted for the "enhanced wifi" which was included because of my wife's Bonvoy status and it still seemed to lag at times, and there were times she or I had to shift to hotspots in order to take Zoom Meetings. The tv was also lagging and I reset it myself (unplugging and replugging some of the cords), but the wifi even when I told the front desk, they said they were working on it, but it didn't seem to get that much better. It is a decent sized hotel, but if you're planning to do business while you're there, I hope they improve that part.

The Langham Huntington operates at a level of classic hospitality that is increasingly rare in…read moreSouthern California. The spatial flow across their 23 acres is immaculate, allowing the property to host high volume events without ever making individual guests feel crowded. The Tap Room remains one of the best lounges in Pasadena for a perfectly executed classic cocktail, and the front of house staff anticipates needs before they are verbalized. It is exactly the standard of execution you expect from a landmark property. Best for: High tea, upscale weekend staycations, and flawlessly executed cocktails. Pro tip: Valet pacing is excellent, but allow extra time if you are arriving during peak wedding hours on a Saturday.

Back in March, we chose The Langham Pasadena for our wedding night because we wanted to end such an…read moreimportant day somewhere special and hoped it would be a hotel we could return to for anniversaries and look back on fondly. Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing and put a real damper on what should have been an incredible night. Check-in begins at 3PM, and we arrived around 5PM after needing to get ready for our wedding reception. Our room still wasn't ready and we were told it was "awaiting inspection." There was no ETA for when it would be available, we were simply told that someone would call or text us when it was ready. This left us without a room when we needed it most. Luckily, my in-laws' room was ready, so we had to use their room to get ready. We also had to leave our luggage with the bell desk and specifically asked that it be delivered to our room once our room became available. After our wedding reception, we returned to the hotel around 11:00 PM. We had received no call, text, or email letting us know our room was ready. I went to the front desk myself and was told that it was, in fact, ready. At that point, however, they couldn't even confirm whether our luggage had been delivered. We went to our room and, unsurprisingly, our luggage was not there. It was eventually brought up to us, but by then we were standing around waiting for our belongings when we should have been getting ready to head to our after party. After an already long and emotional wedding day, this was the last thing we needed. Unfortunately, the problems didn't end there. We had several items from our wedding reception that the hotel agreed to hold for us, which we initially appreciated. When we checked out the following day, we were told that everything they were holding for us had been returned to us. We trusted that information and left. Luckily, we were still in the area at our next stop when we realized we were missing items. We had to turn around and drive back to the hotel to retrieve them. When we arrived, they had several additional items that had been forgotten and not given to us the first time. Mistakes happen, but the combination of everything that went wrong... from not having our room ready at check-in, to not communicating when it was ready, to our luggage not being delivered, to having to return to the hotel because our belongings weren't all returned, made for an incredibly frustrating experience. What makes this especially disappointing is that this was our wedding night. We chose The Langham because we wanted to celebrate such a meaningful occasion there and hopefully have a hotel that would hold special memories for us for years to come. Instead, when I think about our stay, I'll remember it as the hotel that added unnecessary stress to an already exhausting day and didn't make our night any easier. For a hotel of this caliber, I expected a much higher level of communication, attention to detail, and service. Unfortunately, I cannot say that our experience lived up to that expectation, and at this point, I don't see ourselves returning for future anniversaries.

When you go to a Hampton Inn, you are assured a familiar standard in your experience. This one is…read moreno different compared to others. I've stayed at many Hampton Inns through the years to confidently say that. I'm not from this area but just from driving around it looks like a fine area. Lots of stuff around (restaurants, eateries, fast food, the mall, etc). I guess only con is it looks like there is constant traffic as it seems to be a hub for lots of amenities for the area. With that said the property looks kept up well. The lobby is pleasant and warm. Front desk person at 11PM was still energetic and professional. I didn't check all the amenities as this was a 1 night quick rest stop, but I did see an outdoor pool that closes at 9PM (not sure if heated) and no separate hot tub. The halls to the rooms are bright and dont look eerie at all. The rooms are fairly up to date being very utilitarian and functional. Tiny--by today's standards TV. Conveniently placed outlets with USB ports. There are 2 desks to work on. There are the ever so important microwave and minifridge with coffee maker. Beds and linens were up to par--both being good and comfortable. The HVAC system was adequate with a noticeable hum but no rattles. AC blows nice and cold--period. The bathroom is small, functional, and seems more recently updated than the room itself. Toilet seat is still the cheap low height. Con so far is the following: The bathroom door is a barn door. It serves to close the built in closet when bathroom door is open, and close the bathroom door itself when it use. It has a nice mirror to check yourself out. HOWEVER, there is NO LOCK ON THE BATHROOM BARN DOOR. So when you go to use the bathroom, you slide the barndoor shut but there is nothing preventing shared guests to simply go in there when in use. Bring back the standard door, as in this case function trumps fashion. As with all Hampton Inns--breakfast is included. It's the usual faire and quality if you have been to a Hampton Inn property before. Not much has changed in that for a decade or more. It's doable. Lots of carbs/breads/starches, yogurt, egg, potatoes, coffee, cereal, make your own waffle, etc. Overall another pleasant stay, but not perfect.

From the beautiful event space to the delicious food and incredibly accommodating staff, the entire evening was handled with care and professionalism. Our coordinator, Vivian Tsai, was wonderful to work with from start to finish. She was responsive, organized, warm, and made the planning process feel easy. What impressed us most was how well the team handled last-minute requests during the event. They were able to accommodate a guest who needed a vegetarian meal, quickly prepare a steak dinner for a guest who did not care for fish, and even serve dinner to a couple who arrived very late in the evening. The bartenders, banquet staff, servers, and management team truly went above and beyond to take care of our guests. We received so much positive feedback afterward about the food, service, atmosphere, and overall experience. Our anniversary dinner turned out beautifully, and the Le Méridien team played a huge part in making it such a memorable evening. A very special thank you to Vivian Tsai, Ray Chiu and the entire banquet team for their attention to detail, flexibility, and outstanding hospitality. We would absolutely recommend Le Méridien Arcadia for a company dinner, wedding, celebration, or special event!

The lady working there was not afraid to shout at people in a mean tone, she wasn't really even there to assist people all that much.

I've stayed at many places over the years--Marriott, Embassy Suites, even high-end casino resorts back home in San Diego--and I can honestly say this place stands right there with them. The cleanliness, the comfort, the atmosphere... it truly exceeded expectations, especially for the value. This experience reminded me not to judge a place from the outside. What matters is how you're treated and how a place makes you feel--and this team made my family feel safe, comfortable, and cared for when we needed it the most.
