We have been staying here for several years, since it was the original Portofino Hotel. We've reviewed this hotel before, but as time passes, little things go up and down in consistency. They don't inform you ahead of time of construction, and when you are caught by surprise they make no concessions in the name of acknowledging loyal customers. The... More

This is the second time we have stayed at the Newport Beach Hotel, and we love it!! We checked in and were informed that there was remodeling taking place between the hours of 8-5. This was not an issue for us; the noise was very minimal and the manager did her best to put us in a room as far... More

At the last minute, we decided to stay here. Wow...we are soooo glad we did! The rooms are clean, the location is perfect, and the staff was very friendly! They had bikes for us to borrow so we had a blast on the boardwalk. We would highly recommend staying here.

My wife and I enjoyed Spring Break '13 in Newport Beach, CA. We stayed at the Newport Beach Hotel (NBH). The NBH is located on the boardwalk across from the beach. It's adjacent to restaurants and bars, shopping and business services. You couldn't ask for a better or more convenient location. The NBH has fifteen guest rooms on the second... More

I wanted to create some R & R for my husband's birthday. This hotel has two beachfront rooms with peaceful ocean views. We went there to rest and get some peace. However, we were not informed of the construction which meant tarps, drills and hammers. The only thing worse was the Manager's lack of charm. When I called to inquire... More

I've stayed many times at Newport Beach Hotel. It is for business purposes mostly, so at the end of the day it feels like a mini vacation, not the generic corporate hotel chains that I usually stay at. Great location, very friendly staff and management, many places to eat, and right on beach. Great for watching the sun melt away... More

We stayed for three nights total in the oceanfront spa room. The room is quiet small for the price, granted the view from the room is nice over looking the beach parking lot, then to the ocean. The room sits over a bar, so if your looking for a quiet restful place to relax and enjoy the ocean, this is... More

I stayed at this property a decade ago when it was the Portofino Beach Hotel. Always wanted to return. Finally was able to. Same setting, lovely rooms, extremely accommodating, helpful and friendly staff. Due to very early flight was unable to take breakfast so no review there. For the Newport Beach Hotel, location is everything. If looking for great room-views... More

I stayed in Room 114 which is near the back of property. My room was wonderful, clean, and plenty of space. Although there was a fireplace and air conditioner, I never used them. I did enjoy the huge soaking tub in the bathroom. The manager is friendly and keeps familiar with her guests. Good choices available at breakfast (provided daily).... More
