Crowne Plaza Hotel Los Angeles Harbor, an IHG Hotel (San Pedro, USA)

Guests find the hotel to have a very inviting atmosphere - the outer appearance of the building and the grounds are well-maintained, the lobby is clean and welcoming, and the rooms are comfortable.

Many guests say it's worth requesting a room with views of the harbor, as watching the sunrise or sunset over the water is a wonderful experience and adds an extra something to their stay.

Those wishing to have a place today before or after embarking on a cruise from the Port of Los Angeles love the proximity of the hotel, as well as the shuttle service it provides. It's also very convenient to several good restaurants and all the attractions of downtown Long Beach. The airport, too, isn't that much of a drive away, so guests looking for a quick trip to the airport also appreciate the hotel's location.

Some guests feel that the price they pay for the buffet breakfast at the hotel is a little pricey considering the quality and variety of food served, saying that it isn't quite adequate to start the day feeling full and well-nourished.

Light sleepers may want to keep some earplugs handy, as some guests say the air-conditioning units in the rooms are older models and can make a bit of noise, which makes getting a good night's rest troublesome.

Those wishing to conduct business via the internet during their stay may have to exercise some patience, as the Wi-Fi at the hotel is reported to be spotty in rooms as well as in the lobby at times.
