Marriott Long Beach Downtown

Ocean Views and Rooftop Vibes in the Heart of Long Beach

Modern comfort meets SoCal style at the Marriott Long Beach Downtown. Located just steps from the beach and the city’s iconic waterfront attractions, this upscale hotel puts you right in the middle of the action. With a rooftop pool and hot tub, an oceanview restaurant and bar, and sleek rooms—some with private balconies—it’s the perfect home base for music lovers chasing unforgettable shows.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert-goers appreciate the central downtown location, just a quick Lyft or walk from major venues like the Long Beach Arena and Terrace Theater. After the encore, it’s easy to wind down thanks to quiet, well-insulated rooms and a hot soak under the stars in the rooftop hot tub. The 4:00 PM check-in gives you plenty of time to settle in, and with check-out at 11:00 AM, you can enjoy a well-earned sleep-in.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a stylish base with shared spaces like the rooftop pool and lounge
• Solo travelers catching a bucket-list band with easy venue access
• Couples making a weekend of it with ocean views and cocktails
• Fans who want a quiet place to recharge after the show
• Budget-conscious music fans who want value with a splash of luxury

Food and Drink Options

Local Current, the hotel’s signature restaurant, serves up Southern California flavors and locally inspired cocktails with ocean views—perfect for a pre-show bite or post-show unwind. While 24/7 room service isn’t available, the hotel’s 24-hour Market means you’re never far from a late-night snack. Breakfast is available in the morning, ideal for those rolling out of bed a little later after a late night.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no live music on-site, the hotel’s proximity to downtown Long Beach nightlife means you're just blocks away from buzzing bars, lounges, and live music spots. Back at the hotel, the Local Current bar is a great place to sample local craft drinks in a more laid-back setting.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s clean, modern rooms, friendly staff, and unbeatable location. The rooftop pool and ocean views get frequent shoutouts, especially from those attending events nearby. Many also appreciate the smooth check-in process and the hotel’s stylish vibe.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that parking can be pricey, and the Wi-Fi isn't always included unless you're a Bonvoy member. Also, while the hotel is near venues, walking after dark may not appeal to everyone, so rideshares are a good backup.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a show in Long Beach and want a stylish, well-located place to stay with ocean views and rooftop perks, the Marriott Long Beach Downtown hits all the right notes.
