From the moment I arrived the service quality was evident. The staff was excellent though as in any case ask better questions. If you want a cookie - you may want to ask for a description first. The largest plate of cookies will arrive and at no small cost when you only wanted a cookie. That aside the location was... More

The standard by which most other hotels should be measured.....the service is so exceptional that it's hard to put words to describe.....amazing views and an overall exceptional choice....one of my top 3 (perhaps #1) hotel in the US More

I have stayed here several times on business when in this part of California. The rooms oddly are small but if you get a ocean front room. who cares! I highly recommend this hotel . More

The Rooms are the only disappointment at this nearly flawless resort right on a cliff over the Pacific Ocean near Laguna Beach. The lobby is beautiful (albeit overly fragrant), the views are SPECTACULAR from the Restaurant, 180Blue Bar, Ocean-View rooms and lobby bar. The grounds are superb with a nice hilly stroll to the beach below. Restaurant was also superb... More

We recently stayed more than a week at this hotel. The location is spectacular, the restaurants are great. We especially liked the lovely outdoor location of the 180blu restaurant with absolutely wonderful sushi and a mohito that rivals the best of Miami. You cannot go wrong with any of the restaurants. The panoramic view over the Pacific Ocean is truly... More

I was here for the night with a friend in one of the ocean view rooms. The property is really top of the line, they did not sacrifice quality anywhere. We arrived to the room with a bottle of Champagne waiting for us. We left the door open at night just so we could hear the constant crashing of the... More

This was our third stay at this Ritz. The views from the rooms looking out over the cliffs and ocean are simply incredible. The rooms, decor, and staff are fully up to what you expect from a Ritz. No complaints. We had two issues though, one extremely minor, one not so minor. On the minor side are their bottles of... More

We like to be there as often as even possible - or should I say the budget allows? I love that place- it is nicely renovated and if you are a frequent guest you are treated very very very special. You see nothing else as the ocean and might be only disrupted by the foghorn- otherwise you can totally relax... More

The Ritz Carlton is situated on the bluff directly overlooking the Pacific. From almost any vantage point the ocean is the focal point. There's a wonderful outdoor patio bar where guests can do their winter whale watching. The view from the weight room is unparalleled. Trails lead down to the beach. The rooms could use a little facelift. They look... More
