Too loud- 3am noise from front- breaking down party that night- noisy- majot drop off from Four Seasons. The Irvine Company do leases with strip malls- not luxury hotels- big drop off when they took over- Not the Montage, not the Ritz Carlton- just a b+ hotel- at best- down hill on entry way to hotel- door service - not as pretty as it was when Four Seasons owned it- flowers etc just not that great- Pool was not functional (but I was warned of that prior to my arrival so understandable. Irvine Company should stick to leases and commercial property - and get out of hotel industry

They have hidden fees for all sorts of things and you don't get your moneys worth in any way.

The hotel gave us a feeling as though we were part of the rich or elite society. The valet staff was pleasant and attentive. The hotel is over priced for what u really get. The balcony is very narrow. The perk of the hotel is that it is high enough to have a view. Standing on the balcony would have made it better. U can barely get a foot out. Amenities are basic but very clean

The hotel is luxurious in setting:lovely decor, marble bathroom and spa, We like coffee in the room, if nothing else is offered. There was a tray of outrageously expensive snacks ($3.50 a Snicker bar, $30 half-bottle of ok-wine),and any food service to the room was expensive. Everything was out of pocket. There was no indication of restaurant on the premises and very little information in the room, beside the spa services.As far as ocean view is concerned, we could see very far away the ocean, but close by was a construction site and the roofs of the Islands Shopping Mall....not very romantic.We had to keep the window closed because of the noise on the ground area.

It is a very posh hotel and one can tell immediately that it takes money to stay there. It is a great status symbol. The spa was great, but we could have accessed those services without staying there. The coffee wasn't even good and there wwas no complimentary anything. It was not as close to the beach as we were led to believe by the maps and description. We were dollared to death. Tips for everything, everything is extra. In this day and age charging $12.95 per day for Wi-Fi is ridiculous! We spend our final day at the Holiday Inn Express in Costa Mesa and were much happier.

The photos are highly missleading. Parking at $29 per evening was 'a surprise'. Not even a sea view.I will not reccomend this experiance to any of my collegues. Cetianly there is limited 'value for money' here.

Clean and big rooms, thought of every comfort. It should be advertised as business venue hotel. It is located at the strip divided between shopping mall and financial industry corps. It is perfect of attending conferences, but not good for a family vacation - nothing to do in the area, it is dead and not lively. You will drive 30-40 miles for some life around you. Not many good restaurants near by.

The bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on at a hotel! The valet charge was $30 and there did not seem to be a self park option.
