Hyatt Regency Newport Beach

Newport Beach, California

Virgin rating

The hotel

Escape to the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach — this retreat sits next to the Upper Newport Bay Nature Preserve so is ideal for a bit of walking, cycling or nature viewing. You'll be welcomed by 26-acres of lush landscaping, before the lobby and bar area lure you in with a calm, coastal California chic theme. Next to the lobby bar, the patio has a fire wall and magnificent views of the bay — and those views carry through to many of the guest rooms. Take your pick from three beautiful outdoor pools: chill at the adults-only 'Indulge' pool and find a restful spot at the 'Serenity' pool, or have fun with the kids at the 'Oasis' pool. Whether your passion is shopping, dining, boating, or performing arts, you’ll find it close by. Hit the beach, take to the water on Newport Bay, or wander the shops at Balboa Island and Fashion Island. Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, the Aquarium of the Pacific and Laguna Beach are just a little further away.

The grounds are very beautiful at this hotel, and it’s in a convenient location. The rooms however are pretty old. The air conditioning unit turned on, but didn’t cool our room below probably 74 degrees, so for us it was pretty uncomfortable to sleep there.

Had an unexpectedly wonderful stay at the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach. We usually stay at the Waldorf in Dana Point as we like to stay at luxury properties that have extensive grounds but we needed to be in Newport for 7 nights, so we decided to give this place a try and we were not disappointed! What really made our stay exceptional was the people on staff and all the property amenities. Muy husband was working so I was on my own most of the time. I was able to play tennis at Palasades Tennis Club (on property), ride bikes on the back bay trail, take long walks at Newport Dunes (right across the street) and enjoy 3 different pools with comfy lounge furniture of all types. I ate at SHOR Restuarant several times and the wait staff always remembered me. I ordered a bunch of custom, off menu meals to accommodate my dietary restrictions and they were great about it!! I even ate there by myself many times and felt totally comfortable doing that as the wait staff had become friends. There are lots of place to walk and gather on this property, mature landscaping, firepits etc. Even the little store was great, had lots of items I wanted/needed and sold smore kits for the firepits! Basically, we left the hotel feeling like we made a bunch of new friends that we couldn’t wait to come back and see again. Because everyone there was so friendly and helpful I felt very comfortable spending time in all the public area’s by myself. I would definitely recommend this hotel to single women, travelling alone that don't want to feel locked up in their room the whole time. The kindness and hospitality here can't be beat and the prices were great too. We'll be back!! Read less

Wonderful property with great views and weather. Loved having a patio to go out and sit on to just relax
Image of the Tripadvisor rating $47 a night parking fee

The hotel grounds are nice but you will need your car for everything! With that said be prepared to budget for $40 self parking, which is down a hill far from your rooms or pay $47 for valet (plus tips) this is CA highway robbery! Definitely would not stay here again if you want to hit the beaches & restaurants.

The property is beautiful, the staff is friendly and the food is delicious. I will stay again in the future. It is very close to the marina and in a very nice area. Not much to do on a walkable distance but there is enough to do at the hotel should you need anything.
