Hotels near Long Beach Waterfront, Long Beach

The property (from the marketing info, is supposed to be a ~100 year old hotel) has the feel of an old-style downtown hotel, unlike the typical roadside hotel/motel which is common today. A few days prior to check-in, I attempted to contact the hotel to confirm my reservation, however there was nobody answering the phone; however, they do respond to text messages. The day you check in, they send you a text message with a link for a form to fill out prior to arrival. However, upon arrival (which was late at night), the desk clerk at check-in was very welcoming and helpful, as were all the desk clerks I interacted with throughout my stay. The room I had (called a full bed studio), was definitely small (compared to modern hotels), however for the price considering the location, was definitely adequate. The room had a microfridge and all the coffee condiments, but surprisingly no coffeemaker. Also, there was no soap or shampoo in the bathroom (besides a bottle of hand soap next to the sink). Housekeeping came to service the room at one point in the stay, something not very common post-COVID. The property is located close to downtown Long Beach, within walking distance of the beach as well as many of the shops and clubs on Broadway. Parking is an additional $18/night, and is in a parking area connected to the alleyway next to the property.

Very good. My friend booked it for a business trip. The staff was attentive and enthusiastic. I will stay here again next time! 🎊🎊. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I stayed for business beginning of August. Check-in was easy and smooth. I chose a rate with a free breakfast. Coupons were given to you at check-in, as long as 2 free bottles of water. Parking costs $27/ per day with in and out privileges'. Pool: did not use. However it did appear very spacious and clean. Plenty of lounge chairs available. no Hot Tub room: I stayed on the 12th floor over looking the Pier. It was very noisy with lots of truck traffic. The windows and walls are very thin so you do hear your neighbors above, next to you, as well as all the traffic outside. Bed was very big and had 4 pillows. A nice desk with chair to sit on. Very large 55” we well. Bathroom was very generous is size. Hot water arrived quickly to the shower. Water pressure is a normal California pressure. Room included a safe. Traveler tip: Request a room as far away from the elevator as possible. The noise of partiers coming back at 2am is very disturbing if you are right next to the elevator lobby. Bar/Restaurant: A mixed reaction here. The food was excellent, and very well priced for the area. The beers and liquor selection was very good for a hotel. However this is where I was unhappy. during 3 of 4 nights, the restaurant and bar could not accept a credit card for payment. cash or room charge only. When you select a room charge, you get a ”Convenience fee” of $6 attached to your bill. Thats for each bill. So if you had lunch and dinner, billed it to your room, that was an extra $12 ”Convenience Fee” added to your bill. Therefor the restaurant lost out on my dinner and night cap purchases due to this crazy policy. Keep in mind, like most all service industry locations, they are suffering from a lack of employment. Fitness Center: Did not visit, however is was on the second level next to the pool Breakfast: Huge selection available. From scratch ordered eggs and omelets, grits, bacon, ham and toast. A variety of cereal as well. A great selection, but its extremely pricy - be prepared. Overall a solid 3. The hotel is very old, and was once an office complex, which I think is whey the windows and walls were so thin. Will not stay again. there are several other hotels in the area that have a much more solid offering and customer service.

The hotel is in a good location and has convenient transportation. It is very convenient whether you are traveling to classic attractions or taking a bus to various places. The hotel has complete facilities and the rooms are clean and spacious. The hotel's front desk service is also very good. I will stay here again next time I come back.

Location was good and the rooms were beautifully new, the only complaint I had was- I forgot to bring my toothbrush and toothpaste; so I asked the front desk for a set of complimentary products (as displayed inside of the room that we can ask for one). The staff said they ran out and needed some time to find a set. One hour later, no response. Called them again, said the same thing. I waited until I fell asleep and still no one brought me anything. Even until the next morning, they just forgot all about it and pretend nothing happened.

I came into town on my own to attend a funeral the second week of January 2022. I used to live in this part of town so I picked this hotel because I knew it was a convenient location with freeway access and places near by for food. I’m also super picky about hotels and this is the only 3.5 star hotel in the area. When I got to the hotel I asked for an early check in because I needed somewhere to work for the early afternoon and was denied. But then when I was trying to find a place to go, the receptionist came and found me and then offered me a room. So I appreciated that. Other positives: free parking and clean room. Negatives: I was on the 5th floor and the walls are pretty thing. I could hear the person next to me talking on the phone. Also on my second night I got no sleep because there were some drugged out people arguing in the hall. Once they went to their room they continued making even more noise. This went on till about 2:30 a.m. This was probably a fluke, but definitely ruined my next day. Overall, good business hotel

This hotel does not deserve even a one star. I am a Diamond member with Hilton. I have stayed over 50 nights this year so far for work. I have never felt so unwelcomed at check-in as I did from this hotel. I am unfortunately still here because can't change hotels with work. Would never stay here again even if it was free. The place is dirty and very dated nothing like pictures on website. Extremely misleading at best. I asked if they offered any benefits like a room upgrade for diamond members. I was give a rude no after the staff member rolled her eyes. She continued to be rude and disrespectful and acted like she hated guests for bothering her. I asked about the free water as a Hilton Diamond member was told they were out. She proceeded to hand the people behind me water. I just let it go and went to the dungeon they call a room. It smells literally like vomit. I called down to request a room change. Was told they had no rooms available. Mi d you this hotel at like 20 % occupied. I went down stairs requested to speak with a manager. Spoke to Seth Sous who acted like he could care less about anything I had to say. I am shocked how rude this hotels staff are. Never offered to change rooms just anything else and tells me enjoy my stay. This is absolutely the worst guest experience I have ever had. Plenty of other choices. This place will never get my business ever again.

The K mattress & pillows were very comfortable. The room was very spacious & quiet. Cynthia from front desk was very accommodating for my request & had a great stay. The staff were friendly, courteous & efficient. The gated covered parking came in handy for the storm & I appreciate they have 3 well functioning luggage carts for guest use. Gateway Towne Center is within walking, 1 block to Best Buy, Marshalls, etc.

The Redac Gateway Hotel was excellent. For starters they have bidets in the room. The breakfast buffet was so good a numerous selection of a variety of foods. The front desk agent was so polite and informative. A great experience.

The hotel room is big and clean The breakfast is average, but it is too far away from Hollywood and there is a traffic jam. It takes two hours to drive back and forth every day
