I booked my reservation for a week long business trip and imagine my surprise when I arrived and discovered that they were in the middle of renovating the hotel while I was staying there. Yup, they took my money (standard price) and didn't bother to tell me that: 1. I would need to stay in one room one night and... More

My room was upgaded to a suite on arrival. The suite was nicely appointed and clean, the only minus was the cabinetry showed a bit of wear. The staff was friendly and professional, I'd stay here again. More

Poor management of hotel and staff. There has been a deterioration of integrity; guests are intentionally given faulty information and no remorse is shown even when calmly confronted about this. My husband and I stayed at this hotel on Sand Canyon Avenue four times during the past 12 months, and observed that guests are treated as disposables, as if management... More

I had previously stayed at this hotel 9 years ago for 2 months during a business relocation and it was fine. I had 2 cats with me and the hotel did everything to accomodate me. This recent 4 day stay was disappointing. The hotel is a bit run down, stained sink, scratchy sheets and a plugged bathtub drain which I... More

In town for a small family reunion, this hotel couldn't have been more perfect. Modest in services (no housekeeping during our stay), the hotel has everything you want, whenever you want it. More

I stayed here this week and it was the usual Candlewood Suites experience. The 2 standouts are that it is exceptionally quiet here (that's a good thing), but there is ZERO recognition of Priority Club status. With that I mean no welcome back greeting, no recognition that you are a PC member at all, and no water or cheap amenity... More

If you miss the actual street to trun down going past the hospital, you will miss it! Love Candlewood Suites, the rooms are like mini apartments. We normally get the smoking room, this last time it was a bit stuffy, but otherwise this location features a much better stocked hotel pantry. Staff are quite polite and helpful. More

Thank you roachiebug! We are so pleased you enjoyed your recent stay. I’m also glad you mentioned the special care a traveler should take in looking four our hotel. As you point out the hotel is not visible from Sand Canyon Ave. Accessing the hotel is easiest for travelers after entering the Hoag Hospital complex and making a left at... More

I stayed here twice in April 2011 on business. The first time, I was in a first floor room, and got very little sleep due to the noise from the room above. The resident above was pacing on the heels of his feet back and forth all night long. Miserable. The second time, I requested a top floor room. The... More

Hello Mr. Miller. I am truly sorry we had to move your room assignment spoiling your visit to Irvine. You are correct, we recently had A/C units and thermostats affected by a lightning strike. Both of the rooms you were given had been worked on by a professional technician and we believed the problems had been resolved prior to your... More

The hotel needs renovation. Inteior is showing its age. But price is right. The suite is worth the upgrade as there is a door for the bedroom, which cuts down the noise from the fridge More
