Top Irvine Hotel Reviews

Hyatt House Irvine/John Wayne Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean so was the bathroom. Loved the blackout curtains. The breakfast buffet was my son’s favorite part. Bar was nice and had ur Bartender Steve remembered all of our names and conversational. Gym was nice and clean great machines."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Irvine Spectrum

8/10 Good

"Hotel itself is nice, part is newer, part is in a historic concrete silo building which was interesting and kind of cool. Only complaint is that when I checked in at 11:30PM, there was no mention of the water being off in the building. So when I tried to shower and get ready for my job interview at 8AM, it was a trickle of scalding hot water and the toilet wouldn't flush. I called the front desk (from my cell phone because the in-room phone did not work) and the lady at the front desk basically said tough luck. Hotel itself was nice but I was very disappointed about the lack of communication about not having running water (why put someone in a room with no water??) and the response from the desk when I brought it up."

Homewood Suites By Hilton Irvine John Wayne Airport

10/10 Excellent

"We flew in for a memorial service. The shuttle service to and from the airport was wonderful and the hotel staff was very nice. Super convenient location to the airport. Not much else around the hotel with the exception of a small diner with tasty good food. If you have business to do in the area and need a convenient place to stay, I recommend this hotel. "
