I stayed at this hotel recently for three days as part of a large conference. I must say that everything was wonderful! First of all, the staff was so professional and friendly, very accommodating, helpful, and happy! The rooms are big and nicely furnished, including a refrigerator. This hotel has great meeting rooms and facilities for large groups and the... More

I stayed here recently for a meeting and had a pleasant enough stay. The hotel is near lots of great Costa Mesa shopping and the freeway. I wouldn't call it a destination hotel. They have a Starbucks in the lobby that closes by noon. There are many meetings rooms of different sizes that make it an appropriate choice for conferences.... More

My daughter and I stayed at the Orange Country Hilton during a recent conference and would rate this hotel as one of the best in the world. Room and service were impeccable. Because we are vegans we would have liked more menu choices but apart from that we couldn't have been happier and thoroughly recommend the hotel. Would definitely stay... More

Last week I visited this hotel for at least the fourth time in a ten year span, so I guess a review is past due. I am a meeting planner and was hosting a group which used up nearly 200 of the rooms in this hotel for a weekend. I found it remarkable that not one of the guests at... More

The rooms are very comfy but - I'm not happy at this hotel. Service is negligible. They claim to have a restaurant and there is one - but not open. Instead, it is hit or miss service in the bar. Previously undisclosed $21 per night parking charge....as if anyone walks in OC. It would be more honest to include parking... More

We had such a great experience with Betty as our server. She was attentive to our needs. We visit this Hilton twice a year and we are always greeted with a smile from Betty. The rooms were clean and the beds are very very comfortable. We plan on continuing our stay at this Hilton.

Best Bathroom Award would be well deserved, and room was very clean and well-maintained. Upper-level cleaning in the lobby will hopefully be addressed in the very near future, as will some maintenance issues (painting) in the decorative areas of the pool.

Plenty of parking, lobby very enjoyable and comfortable, and the rooms were very nicely appointed.

This hotel is everything you expect from a Hilton. A great location (at least for me), very friendly and knowledgeable staff. The room was modern and up to date. Valet parking was extremely efficient and friendly offering a better route to John Wayne Airport than I was using.
