We loved the surfing theme decor and laid back beach music playing in the lobby. Our room was so comfortable and seemed like a room in a beach house instead of a hotel. There was a turntable with a 60s album on the dresser; we enjoyed hearing those old songs. The hotel hosted a free happy hour daily and provided kits to make s’mores on the fire pits in the outside patio area. The staff were all so friendly and made us feel so welcome. It was in a great location with the beach right across the street with many good restaurants in walking distance.it was a wonderful place to stay while visiting our son and daughter-in-law in Huntington Beach. Highly recommend!

The Kimpton Shorebreak was a wonderful hotel with the perfect vibe for Huntington Beach. We loved the open air, courtyard, lobby, and restaurant. We could see everything going on in the heart of town right from our room. We walked to amazing restaurants for breakfast lunch and dinner. We lived using the free bikes! We booked the suite with two king beds, and it was wonderfully spacious for our family of four. We thoroughly enjoyed the free cocktails in the evening and s’mores for the kids. We would 100% stay at this hotel every time we are in Orange County! Until next time, California!

Great location is the main reason to stay here. They could improve on customer service by always having 2 people behind the counter. I'd prefer to have the coffee in my room than down in the lobby.

Excellent Hotel with great staff. Gym is very good if you are into that. Social hour, free coffee and s'mores are a nice touch. Location is great with many dining options within walking distance. The HB pier is 1 minute away. Also, they have many beach items that they will gladly give you to use as well as rental bikes!

It has a great Hunting beach vibe and some quirky features, however, I would not rate this as a 4 star, as the overall cleanliness of the room was not up to scratch, very dusty and hardly attention in getting the room cleaned. Overall, I would say its a 3 star hotel but would not consider coming back to this hotel in future.
