What guests say
8.7 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 272 guest reviews
Doryman's Oceanfront Inn earns consistently enthusiastic praise for its unbeatable beachfront location, warm and personable staff, and well-kept, attractively decorated rooms. However, guests should be aware that noise from the lively Newport Beach boardwalk can be a real issue — particularly during peak seasons — and the breakfast offering is widely considered underwhelming, with no hot food and limited healthy options. Those who can embrace the vibrant surroundings will find it a charming, characterful stay; light sleepers or those expecting full hotel amenities may want to temper expectations.
