Ayres Hotel Seal Beach, Seal Beach

I loved this hotel. It was my boyfriend and my first stay. Comfortable bed, very cozy feel to it. We will be going back for our Anniversary hopefully every year. Room 125 :)

My wife and I have stayed at the hotel for a number of years. We enjoy the hotel staff including the cleaning ladies, who do a great job. The breakfasts are sumptous and the pool and jacuzzi are first rate. Love the fotos on the walls and the fabulous cookies they offer during the day. The happy hour is also a nice time to make new friends. The location is also without doubt the best in Los Angeles and Orange Counties. Bill and Maggie Tilney

We made reservation for Christmas but as soon as my sister and I entered the hotel lobby we were treated badly. The customer Service from Nancy the receptionist at the Hotel was the worst. She made it clear that our presence was not welcome by her. Nancy made us feel as if we didn't belong there, we spend 4 days in the hotel, the rooms are clean the location is good but the customer service from the personal at the front desk was very poor and racist. I felt that due to our nationality we were discriminated by the front desk receptionist. I called the Vice President of the company to let him know of my family experience and his response was, "I have never heard any complaints regarding Nancy's customer service" I will not recomend this hotel, if you are visiting California or if you are coming from another Country please do not stay in this Hotel. You can get better Customer Service at the Disneyland Hotel for the same amount of $.

It was very pleasant to look at and clean. However, I was spending time in my room and would like to have had a newspaper, paperback book, or magazine. Also, I forgot a personal item--one that the front desk did not keep on hand. In addition, I really needed a little package of cookies and some milk or juice before bedtime, and, of course, there was nothing like this available. Since I'm scarely able to walk, I could not strike out to find these items, and I was not in my own car. Someone dropped me off at the Inn. Definitely not a fullservice hotel.

This Hotel was wonderful and had very nice people at the front desk and the food was wonderful. I would suggest this hotel to everyone. It is a little more exspensive during the week. The price on the weekend was affordable , for such a great place to stay. It was quiet , so we could sleep . I love the rules that the pool area is closed after 10 o"clock. I felt at home there with three kids.

IT IS A REALLY GORGEOUSE HOTEL .THE STAFF IS REALLY FRIENDLY,POLITE,PROFESIONAL ,AND VERY HELPFULL.THE COMPLIMENTRY BREAKFAST IS DELICIOUSE.THIS PLACE IS THE PLACE TO BE.I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF MY STAY.IT IS SO CLEAN AND GORGEOUSE.

I was at the hotel for two nights for a job interview in the city. I stayed in a room on the third floor, facing the freeway. The hotel is decorated in the boutique style (aka fancy looking), which was pleasing. The front desk personnel was extremely attentive at all times. Very approachable, nice and helpful. I called down once asking for deodorant (the one thing I forgot to pack), and they promptly sent one up, free of charge. I wasn't even expect they'd have it. Impressive indeed. Wake up calls were also flawless. The room was astounding. I've traveled quite a bit in the last few years, and stayed in some famous hotels in big cities, but never did I see a room this big and spacious. A nice bathroom area, with fridge and microwave working. The room itself had a small round table with two chairs, a desk and chair, a center table, a 3-seat couch and a king bed, and still had quite a big of walking room. That, together with the extremely high ceiling (which apparently is a specialty on the third floor) made the room look incredibly big and comfortable. I also heard others saying good things about the breakfast, although I myself didn't have the time to enjoy it, given my business in the city. The view of the room itself was not the most appealing - the freeway - and there's not much to look at from that specific location. But, in the other hand, I couldn't hear any traffic from the freeway at all while in the room, despite my initial fears. They do a good job insulating the room. Do use the blinds on the window, though, as the street and parking lot lights will lighten up the room quite a bit (and yes, there are blinds, although they may be hard to find). If I have one bad comment to make, it is when I checked out. With an early plane to catch, I showed up at 3am at the front desk. Asking for an invoice for my stay, I was told by the night person that the computer was currently rebooting, and it'd take about 30 minutes to be back online (minutes I didn't have), and there was nothing he could do. He told me to leave my e-mail, that he'd e-mail to me. But, two days later, I haven't received anything at all, and doubt I will. Furthermore, if there's any extra billings I'm unaware of, I think it'll be hard to complain from a distance.

was on our honeymoon this was our third hotel we stayed in and this by far beats the four and five star hotels we stayed in we had five great days there rooms were spotless great free breakfast when we checked in the front desk telefoned us asking if the room was o.k nice touch. only one thing to complain about not the hotel but the 405 freeway a few hundred yards away trying to get on or off it was a nightmare but hey your in l.a

We had to attend a conference in Long Beach and came to California early. We were looking for a cheaper place to stay and read reviews about this hotel. We were very glad we stayed here. The room decor was very nice -- a sofa, coffee table and nice queen size bed. Both the room and bath were very clean. I used the fitness room in the morning and it was clean and machines were good. The free breakfast and breakfast room were very good and clean. The only thing you want to watch is where to turn into the hotel. The streets are not marked well and we missed the turn into the street which would take us to the hotel and ended up on the 405. But we eventually made it and had a good laugh. We would definitely stay again.

GREAT SERVICE, LOVELY ROOMS, CLEAN AND COMFORTBLE. A GREAT VALUE. WE HAVE BEEN THERE A FEW TIMES AND PLAN TO STAY THERE WHENEVER WE VISIT FAMILY IN SEAL BEACH
