Kimpton Shorebreak Huntington Beach Resort an IHG Hotel, Huntington Beach

Cute, comfortable and friendly hotel.

Liked: Valet was reasonably priced and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I had issues connecting to the WiFi and they sent someone to my room to assist. They were able to fix the issue quickly. I was traveling with my 4-year old daughter and they were great with her too. She loved the s'mores and the record player in the room.
Disliked: The room technically had an ocean view but barely.

We always return when visiting...

Liked: Love the ocean view Location, courtyard fire pits and s'mores kits for kids, happy hour wine, dining, ping pong & foose ball : )). The staff is friendly and accommodating. Love trying for a "gift" after using secret IHG password...and love the Hi-Fi turntable and albums in the room! Your Frette Robes and most comfortable beds!!
Disliked: I wish there was a swimming pool : )

can?t wait to return! friendly...

Liked: perfect location > great and friendly staff > resort has everything you need! & super pet friendly!
Disliked: we paid the resort fee on a different card and was charged an additional $100 for a reason I still don?t understand

Exceptional

Liked: We enjoyed the wonderful staff the laid-back feel of the property. ? awesome day ?I would go back again and again ! ?

Very good

Liked: location, staff
Disliked: While most of the staff were adhering to state mandated Covid protocols, some of the valet parking attendants were not - they didn?t wear masks or sanitize hands while parking our car - there were many guest who weren?t wearing masks and staff didn?t do anything to try to get those guests to follow the rules. I even had a conversation with reception about it and was told that Orange County was a ?very conservative area? and that people there were ?just tired of Covid and the mask mandate.? It made us very uncomfortable and I doubt we?ll stay there again.

Great staff. Great location. Great...

Liked: The location was great. I liked texting the front desk for my needs rather than calling or walking to the desk. I liked the room size. I liked the Two tvs but wish the room didn't have an opening because you could hear the other tv. I liked the bathroom. I liked the view. We loved having access to beach stuff like bikes, chairs, etc. Will definitely visit when the weather is warmer. Loved that it was cleaned every day.
Disliked: I hated paying for the internet it was also really frustrating doing that every day. I hated no pool or jacuzzi or spa service. I hated the ONLY valet option, I wanted to access my car without having to contact the valet for keys every time.

overall it was a pleasant...

Liked: location, facilities, staff
Disliked: can improve on the cleaning

I would stay here again,...

Liked: pleasant staff, had a roll-in shower, very large bathroom, gym was lovely. Beautiful BIG screen TVs.
Disliked: bedside lamp could only be controlled by standing up, because it was mounted so high on the wall. The chair at the bathroom sink was a hard metal chair with rubber feet, so it wouldn?t move. It was very difficult to get up and walk from it. Parking is very expensive; $40 a day, plus tips.
