This is a great place to stay. The location is great and the hotel is close to the harbour; whether you enjoy long walks, boat cruises, or simply relaxing in your luxurious room, the Inter Continental is the place to be. The staff are super friendly and very accommodating. It has great amenities for the single traveller or if you are travelling with a family.

I loved how close the Starbucks was, very convenient for me to grab my coffee and head to shop or walk to one of the many places close to us to eat. The hotel was close to amtrack as well which made it easy for us to travel to Disneyland when we decided to go. It was peaceful & restful outside this hotel. On our last day there was even a pop up event w/delicious food, drinks beautiful jewelry and things for kids which just gave us one more thing to enjoy before we had to head back home.

The hotel is in an amazing location and tons of dining options right on site! There was even a little market where we were able to grab milk, yogurt, cheese for our infant and wine and snacks for us! It was walkable to the many attractions and different neighborhoods such as Gas Lamp and Little Italy. We woke up to the harbour every morning.

Our family had a FABULOUS stay in early December 2022. The hotel greeted us warmly and gave us a lovely gift and room upgrade to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary! The hotel is in a PERFECT location with Great views of the bay and the USS Midway. It is a newer hotel and felt very luxurious. Rooms are spacious and adequately appointed with large bathrooms.

Pool is too small, basically it’s just for kids to have fun. However, we still enjoyed it for many hours and we’re immersed in daylight to sunset to evening view of the water.

I really liked the location and the hotel except there was no room service. I had to go down to the bar to get the food. The rest was wonderful and my kids loved it!

Fantastic location right on water front. Rooms big and comfortable. Nothing wrong with the hotel other than it has a business vibe about it rather than a place for holidaying families. The pool was open and plenty of sunbeds, but the pool bar was closed so no pool drinks or snacks available....so if you want a pool day plan to pack up and go elsewhere for food and drink. We could see the neighbouring hotel pool and bar and it just looked more fun! Everything is expensive which we expected, just plan to spend big!

Check in was amazing. Anthony was so friendly and kind. The room was great. The dresser under the tv could have been wiped down a little better but no big deal at all the rest of the room was great and staff was always very friendly. Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends and family.
