Please do not stay at Glenmore; I inquired about staying there and was told there was a $25 cancellation fee. So I booked two rooms. I later had to cancel and was charged 10% of the entire 3 day room charge for EACH room. When I explained I was quoted $25, they said what are you going to do, you... More

The front desk staff was wonderful. The maid service wasn't that great. The tub wasn't clean when we arrived & no toilet paper what so ever. A section of the hotel is going thru repairs which I'm hoping we stayed in a room that will be remodeled eventually since you could tell on the areas that had been patched up... More

Came in and had to wait for our room (Clark Gable Suite) to be readied (even though it was vacant the night before according to online reservations). Got into room at 3 and they were still cleaning. Left bits of string all over carpet. When we went to use the in-room jacuzzi, it didn't work. Called and waited about 10... More

Good location in central Avalon. The service was friendly and we were able to leave our bags at the desk before check in. A free shuttle to the boat was provided as well as continental breakfast. The rooms were clean but need some tlc. Overall we were satisfied, not blown away.

We were very pleasantly suprised by all of the updates and renovation done to the hotel. Our room was impeccable and completely updated with a new flat screen tv, refrigerator and microwave. The bathroom looked like it had just been recently been renovated with all new appliances. However, you still felt the warmth and elegance of a turn of the... More

The staff was so helpful. The gentleman at the front desk was so nice! (I think John was his name) He gave us some awesome tips about the city for our weekend stay. The shuttle from and to the ferry was helpful. Our room on the fourth floor was just remodeled. It was spacious, clean, well lit and had a... More

I really enjoyed my stay in Glenmore. Our room was very beach like and the location was great. Also, everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Plus they let us leave our backpacks in the front desk while we were exploring the island.

Great location! The staff was super nice, I felt like I was their best friend by the time I left. Rooms were clean! Price was good and they upgraded my room for free! But that was probably because i came on wensday. I would come back in a heartbeat...

This is a wonderful hotel and a treat to discover. It's age and it's history, in addition to the modern rooms and tremendous staff made this a warm and welcoming place to stay while we visited Catalina Island. All the positive reviews I read on line were exceeded during our stay at the Glenmore Plaza and we are sure to... More

It's like having a room at a friend's really large beach cottage. Very comfortable, homey and clean. You really can't beat this place for the rate ($88 per night @ off-season). I was initially put off by some not-so-favorable reviews from another site but it was our only last-minute option so I booked it. Come to find out, the entire... More
