“Portofino Hotel & Yacht Club”
I thought the hotel room was gorgeous. The front desk staff gave me a complimentary upgrade to an ocean side room. The sunset was breathtaking!
“Peter Glenn's Portofino King Harbor review”
This Hotel is excellent! Our hotel room faced the harbor. We were on the 1st floor. Outside on the patio the view was wonderful, and the sunsets (we faced west) stunning. My only critique, and it is minor, is a bulb in one lamp was burned out and there was a tiny amount of mildew on the shower curtain. These were so minor that I didn't even report them until we checked out. This was a very relaxing and pleasing three days and three nights. Oh! They also have free bikes (strand cruisers) so you can ride to Redondo pier, the Esplanade, and Hermosa beach. The strand (bike way and walk way) is right on the ocean and you can ride for 26 miles. It is very easy to ride as it is mostly flat. For romance or just to relax and enjoy the view, this is the place for you.
“Beautiful hotel located steps from the ocean”
From the moment we arrived, the staff was so welcoming and kind. The hotel was so clean and beautiful. The rooms were very nice. We booked an ocean front room which was incredible. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to stay in the south bay area, especially that close to the ocean. Perfect getaway spot!
“enjoy”
Excellent location overlooking the ocean or the marina. Great recreation/bar room on main floor next to registration.
“Great stay”
We enjoyed our stay. We had a beautiful view of the ocean and enjoyed watching and hearing the sea lions. The children liked this too. We enjoyed time in the beautifully decorated lobby which had a fireplace and windows looking out to the ocean. The lobby area has free wi-Fi. The pool is a bit small but was clean and warm. We had a great stay overall.
“Recommend to all”
I stayed over from Sat. to Sunday and was very impressed with the overall service and the room. I overlooked the Marina which was nice. I recommend room 334 because the balcony is very private. The bathroom was really nice except for those cold floors in the morning. I enjoyed my stay and would come back again.The lobby is nice & the ocean view is very appealing. The swimming pool was extremely small like a bathtub! Enjoy your stay
“good choice!”
Beautifully decorated and comfortable room. Loved the breakfast room and the view from there with sea lions swimming in the ocean while you have a good continental breakfast. Staff was very polite, nice and gave very useful information (especially the guy at the front desk). We had a nice stay! Thank you!
“Excellent hotel”
Nice, clean room with very nice staff. Good neighborhood to wander around and easy access to beaches up and down the coast.
“Recommended first night”
The hotel was very easy to reach by car from LAX; no hassles at all (we didn't have a map). The hotel is on the marina and was welcome sight after flying in for 9pm. The only disappointment was that room service shut at 11 so by the time we had got through customs etc, we missed that and there was nothing local. I would therefore suggest grabbing something en route if you don't think you'll get there. The room was very comfortable and well decorated, although not huge. Our room looked out onto the front of the hotel and then across to the marina and had a little balcony. There was a hamper in the room which was useful of chocolates, snacks etc so we didn't starve. There is a restaurant opposite for breakfast but we walked a little further round the marina to an all american diner which was good fun. There was also a big play area with water slides, a big lake, beach, picnic tables etc so it would be worth checking if that was open if you had children.
“fantastic place!!!!”
i have just spent a long weekend here and i loved the place. im a woman travelling on my own and this was perfect, safe, friendly, everything i asked for. the hotel lobby / bar is just amazing. the staff very helpfull and attentive. you can sit and enjoy a drink and watch the boats sail by. the restaurant - baleen - has great food, an amazing view and good atmosphere. the hotel is right on the marina with other restaurants very close by -a slow 10 minute walk - on the pier. i couldnt really find fault with this place, except that the pool is kind of small, more of an afterthought really. but the beach is a 20min leisurely stroll away if you prefer it. i cant wait to go back and stay here again. though i do believe having a room on the "marina" side is actually better as the sea lions on the "ocean" side do get very loud at night.
