The Spotlight on Portside Inn & suites

Coastal Comfort Steps from the Stage


Modern yet relaxed, Portside Inn & Suites offers a convenient stay in the heart of San Pedro. Just a short walk from the USS Iowa Battleship and near the bustling waterfront, this hotel is a budget-friendly base for concert-goers heading to nearby venues or exploring LA's vibrant music scene. With cozy rooms featuring free Wi-Fi, a microwave, mini-fridge, and coffee maker, you’ll have everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is key, and Portside Inn & Suites delivers—less than a 5-minute stroll to one of San Pedro’s top historical attractions and a quick drive to major concert spots in Long Beach and downtown LA. With a 24-hour reception, music lovers arriving late won't have to stress. The hotel is tucked just far enough from the nightlife to ensure a good night’s sleep, perfect after a high-energy show.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable room near the action
  • Solo travelers catching a must-see gig
  • Couples turning their concert night into a weekend getaway
  • Fans needing a calm, quiet space to recharge post-show
  • Budget-conscious travelers who want value without sacrificing location

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn’t have an on-site restaurant, each room comes with a microwave and fridge, ideal for late-night bites or leftovers. You’ll also find plenty of walkable eateries nearby, from casual diners to coastal seafood spots. Coffee lovers will appreciate in-room brewers for those early or late mornings.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is more low-key, you’re just minutes from San Pedro’s emerging bar scene. Whether you're after a craft beer with locals, a quiet wine bar, or a full-on club night in Long Beach, you're in a great spot to explore. Prefer to stay in? The peaceful vibe here is perfect for unwinding after a loud night out.

What People Say

Guests love the great value for the location, especially its proximity to the USS Iowa and cruise terminals. Reviewers often mention the cleanliness of rooms and the welcoming staff. The free Wi-Fi and in-room amenities like the fridge and microwave are consistent favorites.

Areas for Improvement

The building’s exterior is a bit dated, and some guests noted that the decor could use a refresh. Breakfast isn’t included, and a few reviewers wished for more food options on-site, but the location makes up for it with nearby cafés and restaurants.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a wallet-friendly stay that’s close to concert venues and offers quiet comfort post-show, Portside Inn & Suites is a solid choice.

Pay the extra $$ and...

Liked: the location was very good. close to harbor and other venues. price reasonable.
Disliked: Interior walls had the paint scraped off. the bed was a 1970's style mattress. very uncomfortable for our older bodies.the elevator was filthy, old an not maintained. The pool and hot tub were empty, in the middle of summer. The place doesn't belong on Booking.com.
