This place is top notch. I have stayed here for the last year almost once a month. The service is excellent, The food divine, and The rooms all have amazing views. The staff is willing to work with me when I request a specific room. They are accommodating to most requests. The staff is pleasant and kind. The Valet Service is wonderful and very customer service oriented and they actually care about your car. The Omni Los Angles has always treated me like a Princess when I have stayed there. See you soon Omni!!

Lunch was great. I ordered the childrens plate grilled chicken. It was the perfect portion size for me and very delicious.

I came here for a wedding and it was beautiful. the hotel staff was helpful and the actual accommodations were great as well. the restaurant has its own private staircase leading to the racy directly which was a great walk. im not completely sure if they always have weddings here or not but their big event room was a great size for a group of about 50 at the wedding i attended. all in all, this is a great location and the valet parking isnt too expensive either!

Why not have dinner seaside. It was a beautiful view with good service and food was great. Recommend the fish.

My wife and I spent one night here and let me say, this IS NOT a 4 star hotel in any way. While there is great potential for this place, I am being generous giving it 3 stars. First the good. Your location is perfect for the sleepy downtown area of Laguna Beach. You are within a 5 minute walk to almost any downtown location and a 15 minute walk to the Festival of the Arts and Pagent of the Masters. The beach is beautiful and they offer completely beech recliner with umbrella on a first come first serve basis. The hotel restaurant has amazing views of the ocean and beach. We didnt have dinner there, but the breakfast was reasonably priced and taisted good. I had the crab cakes Benedict while my wife had the 2 egg breakfast. The espresso was reasonably good as well and the coffee was hot. Our server was not on her game as there were extended amounts of time without her checking on us, but we could see the other server was much more attentive. Now for the bad. Its a shame really, this is a beautiful hotel with huge potential but corners are cut and details are lost. The beds are very uncomfortable. My wife and I constantly slumped to the middle. The paint looked reasonably new, but what a poor paint job, there were marks of the tan paint all over the ceiling, the bathroom wall tiles were painted... Painted tile?! Really? It is true the rooms are loud, but its an old hotel so Im forgiving to things like that. Shut your window and turn on a fan and everything is fine. Our TV didnt work after trying to call the front desk three times we gave up on it... The next day it seemed to be fine, after talking with the front desk and asking that they didnt disturb my wife (maintenance guy called minutes after I left the front desk). The carpet had a runner along the room edge that was stapled to the wall. Stapled. You could actually see the hundreds of staples being used to hold it to the wall. So, heres the nut shell. We would stay here again. The hotel is okay. The service was spotty depending on who you happen to get (Pam at the front desk was great as was the shaved/bald waiter in the restaurant). The street noise didnt bother us when the windows were closed -- we didnt even use the provided ear plugs.

An old fashion trip into the 60s. They are going to remodel and that atmosphere of the past peaceful time will disappear. But other things will improve. So. Glad I got to stay there now. Everyone was very nice and polite. The food great.

Very nice

At a wedding, the place is nice and staff is friendly, wedding coordinator is not to friendly or helpful. As a coordinator you would think you would be nice and helpful. She obviously did not get this memo. For all the money paid you think we would have got better service, also the chairs bleed, so on everyone butts was white from the chairs. Overall it was a nice Beach wedding just think the money could have been spent better somewhere else

Rude, over priced. Had a wedding here and they were nice when trying to close the deal but when it came down to the wedding the whole atmosphere was different!!! Horrible service and again pretty rude. The beach wedding was nice except the kids playing on the beach kept running up behind the alter and now the wedding pics have all kinds of random kids in the background. They need to update this place a little. No air conditioning, tired carpet bed was ehhh

I love this place. Great location — old school bar and beachside restaurant. Dated rooms. No ac — maybe a heater.... single pane windows that sometimes close. When the surf is up it’s too loud to sleep. I go for nostalgia...and try to imagine I’m paying the 1970’s rate of $65 a night.

The staff was professional and very helpful. They were able to accommodate to our needs. They helped coordinate the wedding event, which was on the beach, and it was fabulous. I would recommend to anyone thinking about wedding planning, or even spending time on the beach. They have a private space on the beach.

Old historical hotel. Rooms very dated, small, no airconditioner, cant remember a heater either, single pane windows would not close. And we had one of the best rooms. Great beach view from our room. Hotel in a great location except for the homeless camping in the park next door.I must be a glutton for punishment... this is not the first time we have been here. So the good must have outweighed the bad.I think you have to be a special kind of person to like this place.

Adorable hotel, beautiful area. As close to Laguna Beach as they come. Historic, and charming. The only downside-no air conditioning, so if youre here during a heat wave, make sure you have an ocean view room. The ocean breeze is a perfect trade off.

Hotel Laguna is a charming with a little vintage feel, with a breathtaking view of the ocean and gorgeous garden. We received nothing but incredible and thoughtful service from the staff. Our room was upgraded for no extra charge since they had a better room available that evening and we had booked last minute and were checking in later in the evening. I fell asleep listening to the ocean. They make it their mission at Hotel Laguna to pamper their guests. The room was clean and nice, it would feel a little small to those who are used to huge hotel rooms, to me it felt the right size and almost had a European feel. There is no A/C, but with open windows and an overhead fan it never felt hot - the cool air off the ocean made up for it the July heat we had during the day. Breakfast next to the beach, watching the waves and people walk along the sand was a great way to start the day. Also, there are lounge chairs provided by the hotel on the beach. Everything is in walking distance in this charming beach city.

Good service, just pretty musty for us because of the age of the hotel.

Awesome views and location! Fronts the town of Laguna Beach with cute little shops and the backyard is the ocean. Our family loved this Cali locale. It is now our favorite place to stay in Southern California. The valet parking was great- trying to find a place to park is nearly impossible during Spring break.However, if you prefer luxurious rooms you will hate this hotel. The room was very minimal- looked like it had not been updated since the 1950s and the floor was wet and sandy, but that is to be expected in a beach hotel. That being said the rest of the room was very clean. Helpful staff and great restaurant. Highly recommended!

Ive never actually stayed here, but the view in the restaurant here is incredible. You cant get much better than an ocean view in Laguna while you eat. I like that unlike a lot of other beach restaurants there is an indoor sections windows instead of being outside. So you can still come here and enjoy the ocean while you eat, even on windy or cold days. The food is delicious too.

The location of the hotel cant be beat, but it could definitely use some updating. Our room had no air conditioning and was like a sweat box when we arrived. The staff was very friendly and the restaurant at the hotel had a great pasta dish that I tried. It was very convenient being located right next to main beach and on the main drag, but because of the lack of A.C., especially in the end of July, I will look for a different place to stay next time.

The beach front restaurant was amazing! The food was delicious!! Cant wait to go back!

Great historic Place. Location is awesome. But could use some updating in my opinion. Restaurants overlooking the beach serves great food. The private beach maybe its best asset

Very nice beach side resort. Service staff were very nice. The hotel is old though, so its lacking some features of modern construction, but thats thev charm.

We went to the bar after my girlfriend and I got engaged. It was very busy but the bartender handled everything like a pro and got our drink orders perfect. He got wind of our recent engagement and offered us complimentary kamikaze shots to congratulate us. The environment was excellent, the drinks were delicious, and the service was very good.

Attended a wedding here. They had the ceremony in the beach behind the hotel and the reception in the big conference room inside the hotel. I love how while we celebrated indoors, you could see the ocean so close to the hotel. The brunch was very reasonably priced and we even got a discount because we booked a room, so that was awesome too!

Hotel with lots of history. Rooms are well kept without losing the classic charm. Definitely a unique experience. Most of the staff was really accommodating.

Musty little hotel on Laguna Beach. I am very easy to please, but one criteria needs to be met... It has to be clean! I understand is a historic place, but historic and iconic does not translate to dirty and stinky. The rooms have old windows that allow every noise from the very busy front road to interrupt your sleep. Never coming back.

Im very easy to please, but this place is a joke. So the standard rate is over $130, for the view of a busy and very loud street below (little sound proof on windows....thought my window was actually open due to the noise). if you want an ocean view, its only (the guy literally said) only $80 more. Got home after a night of fun bar hopping and was expecting a comfortable shower and climbing into bed, but lo and behold, there was literally NO warm water, zero, zilch. I froze my ass off. The room smelled musty, the carpets dirty, and the bathroom similar to my 90 yr old grandparents. Beware of the positivereviews on here because they must be a lie! Again, I dont really care because Im easy to please, but figured Id post a review for your sake. Good luck! Shower before you get here!

The hotel is very nice, but is very old and has not been upgraded in a very, very long time. It is located right next to the main beach, so getting places is super easy and convenient! Love staying at this hotel!

Came here for a wedding. The ceremony on the beach was gorgeous and the reception 9n was amazing. The food was delicious, the wait staff was awesome and really made the day extra fun.

This was a disappointment. We stayed here in November of 2017. We chose Hotel Laguna for its historical significance and prime location. While the exterior architecture is great and iconic, the interior needs fixing. Room design, bedding and bathroom amenities are poor. The mattress is hard and very bouncy, so at night when one person turns the other bounces up and down. Furniture, pillows, blankets, sheets and bathroom amenities are unbelievably cheap, like in a cheap motel. I say this because I buy hotel supplies and know prices and quality of these things. I just couldnt believe when I saw the beds. The furniture, walls, carpets and bathrooms all need renovation. Our ocean view room also overlooked a dirty, ugly roof with AC ducts and while hearing waves crash we also heard AC turn on and off. In the right hands this place can be a gem, but as of now its deteriorating into a ghost hotel.

I love the Hotel Laguna! My dad always brought me here growing up. Now I go for the view and the great patio! Wonderful food and they make a fabulous Mai tai!

They have a private beach, so my sister was able to have her wedding right on the sand. The hotel is a historic building, so its older but really pretty. Staff overall seemed helpful and professional.

The hotel is pretty outdated but has really pretty views. It is pretty hot as there is no air conditioning and only ceiling fans. I was there for a wedding I was in, the coordinator was fantastic however it was an invreadbly stressful day due to a fiasco with the rooms. My bride was supposed to have the bridal sweet the night before and night of her wedding. Something happened and the bridal suite was booked up so she spent the night before in a regular room (no big deal) and the front seat was supposed to call her and notify when the suite was ready around 10 they said. They did not call until after 12, again not a huge deal but rough as we were supposed to be getting ready for a wedding. The real problem was, a half hour after we got into that room we were called by the front desk and informed they gave us the wrong room and that we needed to get out....so again in the middle of getting ready for a wedding we had to pack up and move. They assured us that the next room was bigger and better than the one we were in...which was a lie. The 3 room we were in was much smaller and while it had an ocean view it really did not accommodate the needs that they said it would. We wound up starting the ceremony late because the bridal party could not get ready very fast due to all the moving around that occurred and we got pushed by the staff to basically hurry up which was frustrating since it was their fault we we all late to begin with. But again, beautiful site, nice beach, old rooms.

Stayed at the hotel for a friends wedding. I loved the old building. Only problems were the shower water temperature was extremely inconsistent, and we had a room on the from of the building right across from the very loud sky loft. Justine was the most amazing waiting at the event, amazing dancer and told us about great local place to check out. I would totally go back.

THERE IS NO AIR CONDITIONING! Checking in employees were inattentive, they were sitting in the office while a line built up in the lobby. Once I finally got to my room I realized there was no air conditioning, which I didnt think was even possible in 2014. I had to sleep with the windows open, which was terribly loud from traffic and people on the street. The bathroom has not been remodeled since the place was built. Upon checking out the man didnt even acknowledge me standing at the desk, so I finally called to him and asked, Do I just leave the keys here? He responded in a snippy tone that I have to check out first. I finally asked them to email me a receipt, which they also neglected to do. I travel a lot for work and have stayed in some pretty rough hotels, but for $227 a night I thought this place would at least be decent. I was wrong.

Our wedding reception of 100+ was handled expertly by the great staff at this iconic hotel. The Claes room is gorgeous, all glass on three sides. Beautifully set up and maintained throughout the three-hour party. Food was exceptional, and many of our guests complimented us on the delicious array. Not cheap, but worth every penny. The staff definitely worked within our budget and provided us a day to remember!

Just stopped for lunch. Beautiful view.

Hotel Laguna is a nice place for the private beach. They have great customer service, and good food, with fantastic views of the ocean. The rooms are older but if you like antiques, then you will like this hotel.

When we have guests visiting from out of state, we always head here for the BeachSide Bistro. There are great views and its the perfect place for a glass of wine and a lunch. On multiple occasions we have seen dolphins playing in the surf.

Incredible ocean and beach views. Friendly staff. Was here​ for a wedding reception. They were able to accommodate kids in an adjacent room, with the adults gathered together in the big room

Its a nice, well kept old hotel. It has some quirks to expect from an old building (like no climate control) but its clean and nice. It can be a little noisy on the street side, but grab an ocean or court side and its much better. Overall a good experience

Reserved a room with two beds. The gave me a room with one bed and gave us a separate free room but it sucked staying separate. The rooms are VERY small and smell old and musty. The bathroom was clean but old with no counter to set makeup or a curling iron. I would never stay there again. It may be historic, but it needs to be torn down and rebuilt.The old sweaty waitress in the restaurant was really rude. Food was ok.

The hotel is great a nice room with a bit of space. My family loved it, but it is a bit on the older look but still clean. The was a very helpful receptionist, Michelle and helps us so much.

We were married at Hotel Laguna 15 years ago and decided to stay overnight to celebrate our anniversary. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. We had a pleasant stay there. Through no fault of their own, the weather wasnt cooperating. The room was hot and uncomfortable, even with two fans at full blast. Perhaps they should consider adding AC, but due to the logistics and cost, I would understand why that wouldnt be possible. We probably wont be staying there in the future anymore, because the amount of money I spent for a room with a single king bed could have paid for a more modern hotel just a few more blocks down Hwy 1.

Great location, waterfront/beach bar, beautiful views. The rooms are super dated as this is an historic hotel. But, a neat place to stay.

The employee were extremely friendly. The room was clean, it was quiet and I slept like a baby. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location, our room had a great view of the beach and ocean. No air conditioning, but the evening breeze would usually cool the room down (a little). Loved having bar and restaurant on site. Noisy outside, sirens, trash pickup, and traffic, but overall a fun stay.

The restaurant is great. Fabulous views, great food and excellent service. To bad the rooms dont match up. Other than the mattress and tv nothing has been updated in decades. Anyone over 5 feet tall have to shower bent over and there was no stopper for the bathtub. The room didnt even have an alarm clock. Very disappointing.

We had a great birthday celebration for my mother in law. The food was great as well as the service. I highly recommend this to everyone.

The Saturday evening music (acoustic guitar and drums) was awesome (and so was the crowd). The bartenders and wait staff there are always awesome. The best thing is the view of the ocean though! Good times! The only thing that ever bothers me, is that the bar area has a slight funk smell to it. I go here often, and it is always there. Its not overbearing or too terrible, but it is noticeable and they should try and take care of it (if they can).

We are very disappointed that this hotel is no longer in operation. We have enjoyed our yearly vacation at this hotel. We hope it is going to be a hotel again soon.

Awesome location and delicious food. Really had a great time.

Location is perfect. Rooms are small but its a 150-yr-old hotel, so thats to be expected. We have small children, and the windows open all the way with no screens or anything to protect them from toppling out. Top bad because the windows are great for keeping the room cool.

This is for the restaurant only. Was seated with my family on the patio outside. Was not busy at all and pretty wide open at 5pm. After about 5 minutes of sitting there, I asked a waiter if we could move to one of the 2 empty tables right next to ours that were serviced by the same waitress. We just wanted a better ocean view and to be out of the sun more. Waiter said no, and I asked to just ask his manager or have him come and speak with me. He came back and said the manager said no and that he would not speak with me. That was enough for me to leave and take my business elsewhere. At least come talk to a customer who asks, even if you say no, ignoring and blowing people off is not good business practice. Last time I ever go there, and I hope that 2 people who took the table next to us made you more money than the 2 drinks only they ordered. My appetizer and 3 drinks was 50 bucks alome before the meals I would have ordered, and I still tipped. Horrible customer service! Manager...pfft, learn some management skills.

Only had food here. The view over the beach is great. The food was good but nothing to write home about.

Delicious food. Great service. Fantastic view. Were a little picky about were we sat (group of 7)

I love this hotel! It is Paradise the views are spectacular and the customer service is top notch. George at the front desk was so helpful with recommendations for dinning and sightseeing. I highly recommend this hotel.

Always love this place. Great drinks. Good food. But location and timeless style are perfect in all ways.

Very old fashioned small rooms. We got additional portable bed despite information about 2 people. Breakfast not complimentary- 25% vouchers.

Great view property, located in the heart of Laguna Beach. Property decor needs updating, while staying true to its historical importance. Without the view, this is a 3 star property.

Quaint and historic. I love it here. George at the front desk was very helpful and professional about all my questions. The bar has a great ocean view.

Not at all impressed by this hotel. No A/C and no fan in the bathroom. The cleaning crew made an insane amount of noise in the morning. The bed was surprisingly comfortable, however. Almost $400 because we had a view of the coastline which was hardly a view. It was nice to hear the waves, but not worth the extra money. Pay less and stay inland.

Was in one of the conference rooms. Services was excellent. They provided or served some nice baked goods and chocolate covered strawberries. Room appeared clean.

Slightly crusty and old but with bags of character and an interesting history. Our corner room 101 had a fine view of the ocean through one window and the coast through the other. The hotel location is as central as you can get in Laguna Beach.

Dinner at the patio restaurant was excellent. Delicious cocktails and comfort food appetizers. The service was a bit slow but very pleasant and with a waterfront view of Laguna Beach, who is really in a rush?

The beach is right here. Our room looked out on the courtyard, and was cool and pleasant. Staff very friendly and helpful

Was here for friends wedding a bit pricey but nice atmosphere, however customer should take note that when they call it an historic hotel they mean it. room dont have air conditioning would recommend getting the beach facing room because the beach breeze is worth it and you wont be facing the street traffic noise if you sensitive to that.

Beautiful location and on the beach! Amazing good and drinks! Friendly staff! Had a wonderful time!

Its an old hotel, thats pretty much it. The bathrooms are closet sized with shower water changing temperature from scalding hot to freezing cold and you have no control over it. The rooms are kind of small and bare. A nice thing though is that you can listen to the ocean outside your window.

I was born and raised up and down the Southern California coast, and though I lived in Laguna for several years I had never stayed at the iconic Laguna Hotel (how many stay at a hotel in their hometown?). I always wanted to though. Unfortunately when I finally got to stay there, it was a big disappointment. Ive stayed worst places, but not typically at this rate. Its a shame, because the place has SO much potential and history - yet the current owners seem to have merely done what had to be done and nothing more. The decor is absolutely boring and dated. Its clean, and the staff are friendly & helpful and of course the location is great - but thats what makes the rest of the shortcomings such a shame. This is a historic landmark and should be maintained as such. Things barely work. I stopped using the elevator as I didnt trust it - I have NEVER done this before. On the morning of our check out the power went out...well, sort of, every light dimmed to nearly out (mid-shave - alright). I love Laguna, have family there and visit often. I wont stay at the Hotel Laguna until the owners - current or new ones - renovate and give this building its rightful dignity.

I went there for a wedding. Valet is $10 for 6 hours. Nice view of the ocean. Food was good but that is subjective.

Quaint is a nice way to say old and outdated. Small bathrooms, small room and not very comfortable. Way overpriced even if old Hollywood icons stayed there.

Nice little hotel that has a great location. Good service. Polite staff.

Decent hotel, but a bit overpriced. Clean, but rooms are in need of some updates. Pretty main beach view. No AC but luckily it cooled down at night so we slept well. Small rooms with few amenities.

Place is small and quint. Much of a historic looking place. But the beach front location is perfect.

Everything about this place is awesome. Staff location price everything not one bad thing to say

I was there for a wedding and overall I wasnt impressed. The place was small and didnt feel clean. The staffs were okay. The view was nice. I wouldnt held a wedding here because photography is difficult due to lighting conflicts.

Absolutely wonderful. Hotel Laguna is historic. Hit Happy Hour out on the deck and watch the sun go down. The cocktails and nibbies are very good too. Ive been hanging in and out of Laguna since I was 5. If you want new? Go to the Ritz Carlton south of here or The Montage . . keep driving. But if you want to refresh and relax and take your heart and soul on a little vaca . . then come here. Ill be back next week with my sister to just chill, have some cocktails, remember precious times with our Mother and have a little Christmas.

Great view, and thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Service could have been a bit better but the breeze blew any negatives away.

Lovely place right on the beach. Perfect for the wedding I attended

Great hotel. Right on the beach. No ac, just ooen the windows and listen to the ocean. Restaurants and shopping everywhere. Love it!

Good hotel for its price, nothing fancy. Great location though.

Fantastic service and an amazing event space. The view is simply perfect!

Lovely hotel right on PCH in Laguna Beach. The rooms are pretty tiny but they have their own quaint charm. The rooms are definitely not modern. If youre gonna start here my recommendation would be to get a room that does not face the street! There is NO AIR CONDITIONING! Which, beachside, would not be an issue, but if youre facing the street, you dont get the beach breeze, and you get all the NOISE from the street all night! I could not sleep at all. There were complimentary ear plugs in the room but I have a baby so I couldnt wear them on the chance my baby woke up at night.Aside from that, the grounds are lovely and the restaurant is delicious. The bar serves good and not horribly overpriced drinks. We were there for a wedding and the wedding turned out great. The food was amazing and everything seemed to go without a hitch.

I was here to attend a wedding. There wasnt really anywhere inside to wait for the ceremony to start without being in the way. You had to walk thru the restaurant to go out too the beach. Employees were not very nice.

Was there for a wedding on the beach. Service was good at restaurant. No complaints.

OMG, The destination place for awesome weddings. Dont forget the toll road fees. Worth the trip!

Location is amazing, great view of the ocean through glass fences. Food tasted great, and water was refilled timely and regularly.

Cozy and comfortable..The people were great here.

Beautiful view of the ocean. Rooms are a little small and outdated, but well maintained. Private beach area was nice.

Had lunch with a beautiful ocean view. Valet parking was very convenient and the food was great.

Good food large portion size and great imported beer selection

Attended a wedding. Location was clean and well maintained. The dinner service was very slow but not sure they catered it themselves or not but I assume so because the ceremony and reception were all at hotel. Unfortunately parking is horrible and had to park 1/2 mile away.

Beautiful location. Would recommend to family and friends

The worst service in their Restaurant that I have ever seen, waited in vain the place an order for over half an hour. Im not a picky person but when you see them serve 5 other people that arrived after you. Dont eat here unless you like rude and long service!

Beautifully setup right on the beach! Venue was gorgeous and yummy drinks

Always enjoyable,great staff .Valet parking 15$ night w/room

Very nice view from our room. Good service and clean rooms.

No air conditioning. Loud rooms on either side of building, despite double pained windows. No fan in bathroom. Great location, that is all you are paying for.

Service was impeccable, rooms are a bit dated.Be careful in the shower it goes from hot to cold to hot again.Food was okay really not worth the cost.

Had an appointment for a wedding tour. Our person was late, which happens, but was about 20 min late. Could be a nice place for a wedding, just wasnt our cup of tee
