We stayed one night at the Laguna Hills Lodge and loved it. Old school road side type motel that has been well maintained and kept its charm despite new buildings popping up all around it. Cute pool, hot tub and a small gym (that I could’ve/should’ve/didn’t use!). Breakfast included (simple but filling). Very nice staff, proprietor - welcoming at check-in, smiling at check-out. Would stay again!

Would definitely stay here again. Nice breakfast, beautiful property, great pool, close to shops and restaurants. I arrived early and I didn't mind waiting but they shuffled some guests around and found me a room.

Hallway carpet old and dirty looking; external concrete stairwell and elevator also show age. Ice machine outside and downstairs was old and not efficient - could not produce enough ice to fill bucket after someone else used it before me.
Nice remodeled room but below average bed and bedding (old and threadbare sheets; blanket thin, pilled and worn). Very thin walls and ceiling: could hear people in adjacent rooms PLUS heard someone stomping across the ceiling FOR HOURS at night, very difficult to sleep. Water pressure in shower was ok.
Free breakfast but few options and very basic, coffee not good (fortunately there was a Starbucks nearby). On-site parking tight but free; located near Irvine Spectrum and lots of places to eat.

We lived in aliso for almost 10 years and I come back once a month for business and our family has always stayed here. Even when our a/c went out at our house we came here to the pool with the kids to cool off. We love it here :)

Thanks so much for your review, and for your repeat business! We were glad to read that you are making good use of our pool, it was remodeled last year. BTW, kids really like lunch from CPK, In-N-Out Burger, and Chick-fil-A - all close by ^_^. I will share your headline with my team "I love Laguna Hills Lodge".

My brother and his wife and my wife and I booked 2 rooms, and were completely satisfied with every aspect of the experience. The rooms were spacious and well appointed, very comfortable. The continental breakfast was more expansive than expected. Burt what we kept commenting on were the beautiful gardens covering the property which gave such a warm feeling. There are old-growth bougainvillea everywhere - completely surrounding the upper level balconies on one side and trained to grow far up many trees on the site. Walking the Lodge's pathways was a real delight!
