Top Rancho San Clemente Hotel Reviews

Ayres Hotel Laguna Woods - Aliso Viejo

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and very safe. Well kept property."

Casablanca Inn

8/10 Good

"If you’re looking for an affordable place to stay with good walkability the Casablanca Inn is perfect! We only used our car once , we walked to the San Clemente pier, a couple of close by parks and really close to North Beach. The room was nice, king size bed, big screen tv and good size bathroom. There were a couple of things that happened ( bathroom sink clog and lightbulb out in the ceiling light) both were quickly fixed.👍Good breakfast included-waffles, breakfast sandwich, etc and very good coffee!😀All in all for a close to the beach stay that’s not completely “touristy” this is the place to stay!"

14 West Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel for families. Right next to a Ralph's, and 2 restaurants right across the way. Would definitely stay here again. The hotel does definitely need upgrades but overall our room was clean. The suite we stayed at easily accommodated 5 of us, we got the king bed and the sofa pull out which was perfect and we still had another sofa in the room. The pool area was so nice with a gazebo. The location was so perfect to catch the trolley so we didn't need to drive anywhere. All of the staff were super friendly."

Surf & Sand Laguna Beach

8/10 Good

"Staff was great. Location was phenomenal. Inside the hotel room was very good - linens, smart features, bathroom - all clean and modern. I would say my biggest complaint was that the hotel itself is in need of a renovation. It’s a bit run down and doesn’t feel like a 5 star hotel from the outside. Our room was in building 3 and to get to it we had to take elevators and stairs - it was definitely like a maze to get to the room. The balcony had a great view of the ocean - but the hallway to the room felt like walking through a basement dungeon. But as I said the staff was great and the location is superb."

Capistrano Coast House

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the location, proximity to the ocean and view from the 2nd floor. The staff gentlemen were extremely helpful, friendly and accommodating. I loved to listen to the waves with the half door open and the record players in the rooms was a beautiful touch. Bed was comfy and shower pressure was 100/10 amazing. It was a tad loud being on the 101 and near the train tracks. The only thing I didn’t like was the very difficulty entry and exit with a low clearance car because my bumper struggled each time to get in with the bumps and oncoming traffic. The other thing of issue was that my first room (31) had a window that did not latch for locking and then when they rearranged my stay and put me in another room (13), there were no locks on the windows at all. I was placed into a 3rd room (21) which everything was great and secure, though I will say for the sake of safety especially for solo female travelers the windows should be revamped! Otherwise, it was a great stay and I would absolutely stay again and recommend."
