well lets see i booked on a special two rooms and i know now why they stuck us in parking lot views and handicap... Both rooms come on requested king beds got queen .. You look at website it is nothing like hotel...they just need to be honest for what they are instead of acting like a top notch hotel cause its not even close..... very disappointed............ meer

I stayed for two nights at The Portofino at a very reasonable rate for what seemed to be a top quality hotel. Whilst the rrom and hotel were visually very nice I did have some poor experiences. Firstly the hotel plays music in the corridors which I could hear in my room all night. There was no remote control with TV and I had to ask three times before one was found, which I then... meer

We've stayed at the Portofino for a few days the last couple of summers. While mostly a positive experience, getting the room you want can be difficult. We reserved a Ocean Premier room months prior, but upon check in were told they had no more Ocean Premier on the side we want, and so we downgraded to deluxe. But I guess that can happen anywhere. The walls are thin (it's an old hotel) and there... meer

Our family of 4 spent the last night of our long L.A. weekend here in order to hear the ocean at night and be closer to LAX with relatively predictable traffic (20 min to the airport). From the moment we arrived at the property, the service was impeccable, starting with the Bellhop, Kevin, who helped us easily upgrade our room, and ending with the Manager, Nathan, who had someone run the suitcase we left in... meer

Booked this kinda last minute so got a room for (£65) and was a bit worried as to what I would get, it was great !! location is amazing and our room was lovely. We had a 'harbour view' which as others say was across a car park but it was fine. There is a pool there and the Cheescake Factory is right across the harbour. We got bikes free for 2 hours and rode... meer

We were there for a wedding last week. So the drunk obnoxious party goers the reviewer below me complained about were probably my drunk obnoxious friends! With that said, I'm sorry. So this hotel is great for large groups (i.e. wedding parties). The location is what made this hotel. They offer guests beach cruiser to cruise up and down the strand, which is only about a 5 minute bike ride away. The hotel very clean... meer

Although, the hotel itself is quaint and comfortable. It is DEFINITELY not a place to go for a quiet, relaxing weekend. I have gotten more sleep in Vegas! There were obnoxious, drunk party-goers roaming up and down the halls yelling at 3 am. I had to call security twice, who did nothing, then I had to threaten to call the police before if finally stopped. I travel extensively and live in hotels daily. I have... meer

We had the opportunity to enjoy the Portofino Hotel in Redondo Beach over the Labor Day weekend and, for the most part, had a wonderful stay. If you go, you absolutely MUST ask for the ocean view THIRD floor. If you can't get third, try the second floor, but DO NOT stay on the ground floor as you will be facing a sea wall and although they tell you the rooms are secure, we saw... meer

This was our 2nd time staying at this hotel and we really like it. The 1st time we had a 3rd floor ocean view room and the 2nd time we had a 2nd floor ocean view room. The 3rd floor is the best view and the 2nd floor is okay too. Because of the breakwater wall the 1st floor would not have much view at all. Each evening we spent happy hour sitting on our... meer
