What a gem! Love that there are still places like this. You can tell the staff really pays attention to the care of this lovely inn. Everyone was so very helpful! Kevin was friendly and attentive. We stayed in room 9 which was darling. The fireplace is such a nice touch. Room 9 has two ways to enter, one is in a common outdoor sitting space. Perfect for a morning cup of coffee. We really enjoyed the rooftop area and could only imagine how nice that is in the summer. We. Ant wait to stay again in the future!

It’s a Nice & clean place. Parking is convenient, close and easy. You have to be aware that every sound happening on the streets, you will hear loud and clear. There were people outside of the bar across the lot that were so loud that I felt like they were in the room with us. If you have any limited mobility, or wheelchair bound - there are small amount of stairs throughout the building that you would have to use. The balcony is shared and not private to the room. We stayed in room 9 so those sitting on the balcony & having breakfast can be heard. And we had to keep shades closed otherwise they’re looking right into your room. It’s a nice location, steps to the beach, kind staff & clean, and next to tons of food/coffee/shopping options. It’s a welcoming place and just like being a guest in a home. There was a belligerent guest, who was causing quite a ruckus, and the manager did an excellent job to try and diffuse the situation and then call on law-enforcement when needed. The man was obviously a mess and the manager did a good job protecting anyone else that was in the vicinity and trying to deter them from getting close to someone who was getting out of hand. Appreciated his efforts to make us feel safe because the guy was too much.

We arrived at Doryman’s Oceanfront Inn on New Year’s Day, so the pier and surrounding area were very active. Having just come from the peaceful pace of Santa Barbara, our first impression was a bit overwhelming, especially when we checked into a room located just off the lobby. However, everything changed after we went for a run along the boardwalk. Running by the ocean and through the surrounding Newport Beach neighborhoods gave us a completely new perspective on how beautiful this area is. When we returned, we spent time walking the boardwalk near the hotel and discovered so many fun, funky restaurants and places to eat right nearby. We ended up grabbing sushi close by and came back early to enjoy the cozy fireplace and the Victorian charm of our room. Our ocean view was absolutely beautiful — being right on the water was a highlight of the stay. While our room’s location near the lobby meant we could hear some comings and goings, it was overall manageable. We did hear some activity from the nearby parking lot and restaurant below, but it was never unbearable. The TV was small and outdated, but in a way that encouraged us to unplug — we spent our evenings reading, enjoying the fireplace, and taking in the view instead. The rooftop space was another highlight; we loved looking out over the ocean while enjoying the complimentary breakfast each morning. The coffee, yogurt, bagels, and even chia seed pudding with fresh fruit were a wonderful touch.

Friendly and helpful staff. Location is excellent. Love this place, however… It would be nice if the hotel rooms were updated with smart TVs. Our room had the most complicated remote I’ve seen in a long time. Most of the buttons on the remote don’t even help with TV viewing. Unfortunately, no Netflix access. Door to room number five rattles even when locked with the deadbolt. With the windows open in the evening, the breeze caused the door to rattle throughout the night. A little alarming at first when you think someone is coming into the room. Bathroom has insufficient shelf space for toiletries Beach parking adjacent to the hotel is typically noisy with cars and people until the early hours of the morning.
