This is a great hotel. Nice location, cute set up and a very short distance from Balboa and Newport. Walking distance to a few restaurants. It is clean and has a great free breakfast. Staff is friendly and was accommodating to our needs. It is also quiet and low key. They do have a small, outdoor pool and also an exercise room. I will stay there again and I definitely recommend!

My wife and I often stay at Marriot properties throughout the United States. We are retired and do a lot of travel in the US and abroad. The customer service at each Marriott Hotel location has been very good, however at the Marriott Bayview, Newport Beach the service we received upon arrival and all throughout our one-week stay were exceptional. Let me explain. When we arrived at the Hotel, my wife and I was greeted by Josiah Escamilla, the Manager. To say he was very professional, very polite, and very accommodating is an understatement. Josiah was excellent in the attention he gave us, his professional demeanor, and most of all the unbelievable hospitality that Josiah showed us was just…incredible. Never before have we ever been treated with such hospitality in such a professional and courteous manner. Josiah made our stay just an absolute delight. Josiah made certain that whenever we called for room service or for extra towels, blankets, etc., we got what we needed in record time. Josiah was very knowledgeable about events and activities in the hotel and the various amenities the hotel had to offer e.g., restaurant, in-room dining service, gym, outside walking trail, etc. He and his staff made our stay very enjoyable. When we left the hotel, my wife thought that she had lost her purse, we called Josiah to inform him of the loss and within just 15 minutes Josiah called us back to let us know that he had gone back to our room and found my wife’s purse. He then secured the purse in the Hotel safe and insisted that he be the one to give it to my wife when she returned the following day to pick it up. Josiah also was able to correct an error in our Lifetime Gold Elite membership points, which upon our checkout had not been added to our account. He called us to inform us that he made the correction and as a result, the points we earned during our stay, were added to our existing points balance. He and his staff must be acknowledged for the tremendous work they put in to make our visit so comfortable and so enjoyable. We really appreciate the unbelievably high level of service we received throughout our stay. This kind of exceptional service we enjoyed, thanks to Josiah and the rest of his staff, Christine, Maryam, Mariana, Stephanie, Anthony, Tommy, and Josef is why we will continue to stay at Marriott Hotels and particularly the Bayview Marriott, Newport Beach. Kudos to Josiah and the entire staff at the Marriott Bayview Hotel, Newport Beach, California. Thank you, Brian W.

The environment, services, and sanitation are very good, and the most surprising thing is that there are washing machines and dryers, and the pots and pans in the kitchen are very clean. I highly recommend it and will definitely stay again

Overall, this is a good hotel to stay in for the area. It is not too close to the freeway or the busy street of Beach Blvd. It is upwind from the freeway and so you can breathe a little bit easier. Directly across the street is Whole Foods supermarket and Bella Terra, a shopping and dining complex which consists of California Pizza Kitchen, Cheese Cake Factory, Island Burgers, Jamba Juice, Somi Somi, Jamba Juice, and a whole bunch of stuff. There’s also REI if you need camping gear and a movie theater too. If you want Vietnamese noodle soup, there are two of the best noodle shops in Orange County within walking distance: they are Silk Noodle Bar (they make their noodles fresh and their filet mignon pho is out of this world. You can add other meats like meatballs to it if you want.) and Pho 101 (their sister restaurant Pho 79 won the James Beard Award recently. They have a good variety of things like the grilled pork and shrimp vermicelli. You may have to wait in line for a bit on the weekends.) A 5 minute walk to Beach Boulevard will get you to the bus stop where for $2 (or $4 for an unlimited one day pass) can get you to the beach and Huntington Beach Pier. Back to the hotel, you can expect a fairly insulated wall, a robust air conditioning system, clean rooms and amenities (their is an exercise room where you can get your water bottle refilled). My room 220 has a broken faucet though. (I took .5 points off for this but gave them the benefit of the doubt and gave them 5 stars anyway because the staff, especially Nicolas and Anthony were great in helping to take care of it. These guys were genuinely concerned about my dilemma of waking at night to use the toilet and faucet and couldn’t shut the water off until I had to shut off the valve below the sink.) There is, however, a new trainee at the front desk during the week that I am here. She is the embodiment of the Wells Fargo perky but has no soul employee who unnecessarily tries to engage you in conversation by making and/or asking personal statements questions. I know she is new. All I have to say is for her to lower her voice a bit and imagine that she is checking in her aunts and uncles each time she relates to people at the front desk. The room layout is natural and convenient. The architect who drew this layout up is a genius. The a/c hums but not noisily. The bed is comfortable. The bathroom and toilet are clean. The second floor has an open terrace that you can sunbathe and play games. Overall, this is a good choice if you can afford this price range.

Stayed for about a week, the front desk service is good, the hotel lobby is beautiful, the room has a small balcony, which can be opened for ventilation, the surrounding environment is quiet, there is a 7-11 not far away by walking a few minutes, and you can buy daily necessities in it There are several restaurants next to it. There is also a dry cleaner, a fast food restaurant, and a health drink shop on the way from the hotel to 7-11. However, the only shortcoming of the hotel is that it took only three days to clean the room and call the Ctrip staff. , helped me solve it. It is said that during the epidemic, the hotel has such regulations, but you can tell the hotel that cleaning is required, and it is also possible. If you do not need cleaning, you can put the garbage bag at the door of the room, and Ctrip customer service will handle it in a timely manner and quickly. There is room service to come clean. However, there are no garbage bags in the trash can of the hotel. Next, I went to 7-11 to buy some. Besides, the hotel bedding, the mattress is really too soft. It is so soft that I cannot sleep on a soft bed. The third day My spine hurts when I sleep. It's really uncomfortable. The sheets and blankets are uncomfortable, and the pillows have a smell. It's the smell of head oil. It's not the reason I slept for a few days, it's the first night. Just smell it! You can ignore it if you don't mind! After all, I can endure it for a few days 😥

The hotel is very good, spacious and comfortable, and free Western-style simple buffet, which is richer than most dishes of the same grade I have been to. There seems to be no convenient public transportation nearby, suitable for self-driving. Free WIFI and parking lot.

The room facilities are old, the service is good, and the hygiene is good

The environment is particularly good, the Italian restaurant is very good, the fireplace in the living room gives full marks, the golf course plus sea view and the sunset over the sea, a beautiful picture. First-class service, also gave gifts to children, very intimate

Although this is named a RESORT, the service and amenities are lacking, therefore I consider this a hotel. The location is across the highway from the sand, so be careful when crossing. The hotel offers beach chairs, bike rentals and umbrella's for a charge. HB allows firepit's on the beach and the hotel will provide a space, chairs and wood for $200. The rooms are on the small side and a partial ocean view will have a very small balcony with two chairs and a table. We had to put the table in our room to move the chair positions. It's tight. We faced south and had a good morning view of the sand and waves in the distance. There is a bed and small couch in the room. The bathroom is minimal, so don't expect Q-Tips, shower cap or thread kit. Housekeeping is ”by request only” and you must notify the front desk early in the morning if you want service. You will not sleep well if you expect to leave your window open. Pacific Coast Highway is very busy with racing cars, loud motorcycles and poolside partying. No wave crashing melodies. There are two pools, one for families and children, the other for adults. It appears that the hotel doesn't care if children use the adult pool, as it was packed with children. Over the weekend the adult pool had a DJ which was nice. The pool service was terrible. Both days drinks took up to an hour and food took longer than that to be delivered. There were three servers, so the problem was the bar and kitchen. You have three choices to eat a meal on site. The main restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. They only offered a buffet on Saturday and Sunday for breakfast, no ala carte. We tried to order coffee to take it upstairs and they said we would have to go to the marketplace gift store. 10 people in line, slow help and an hour later we walked away with two cups of coffee and a croissant. This place has a few gift store items, however the snacks available were minimal at best. They do offer a decent (not great) pizza. Although it is advertised as thin crust, ours was thick. The main Boardwalk restaurant has an eclectic array of food and for many, it may be difficult to find something satisfying to eat. We ate lunch and dinner here on one occasion. The third restaurant opens for dinner only. The menu items didn't appeal to us and it's likely others agreed. All three nights there were very few patrons. There was a guitarist playing music on Friday and Saturday evening. If Huntington Beach was your destination and you happened to stay at the Hilton, the location is ideal. You are a 20 minute drive to Newport Beach, to enjoy fine dining in the evening, or visit the number of restaurants next door at the outdoor shopping mall or Main Street which is 1/2 a mile away. It's an easy walk. The crowd on Main St tends to get pretty rowdy at nights, and I wouldn't suggest leaving your teenagers there alone or with friends. It's a big bar scene, but great for people watching. For the amount of money spent over the c

The balcony on the first floor is open, and the security is good in the surrounding area, so I don’t worry about security issues.
