Top Downtown Costa Mesa Hotel Reviews

Anaheim Majestic Garden Hotel

8/10 Good

"Booked a room with sofa bed and did not get a sofa bed, was too busy during our stay to address it but beware if you require it. There was a weird black bug in the bathroom. Disneyland fireworks are very loud due to proximity of the hotel to the park so might not be a good option for young kids but overall our stay was good and would stay again for the price. Shuttle drivers are very nice!"

Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Anaheim by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"I liked how close the hotel is to Disneyland and parking. I liked how there is plenty of parking spaces. Check-in was easy and efficient. Room was clean and comfortable, a/c works well. Liked that they have Dove shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the shower tub combo. Dove hand soap, lotion near sink. Breakfast buffet is very good with bacon, sausage, potatoes, scrambled eggs, pastries, yogurt, orange juice, milk, breakfast area is large with plenty of tables unlike some nearby hotels. Sergio our server was so very friendly and nice A+. The outside pool and kid splash pad looked clean but was too cold to use that day as it was going to rain. Only con was technical the key cards and card readers to our building need to be cleaned or something as our second key card didn’t work was red after many attempts. But I would definitely stay here again!"
