Parking is always so easy right out front and the entire facility is extremely accessible. There's a 24x7 self serve convenience store for guests on-site that has a great selection.

Highly recommend the MH for not only any stay when you're in the Gardena and Torrance area, but also for great hospitality for event functions.

Short hair like that seems to be trimmed from somewhere unsightly in my opinion) on the very pillow I was going to lay my head on!!! Genuinely disappointed, mildly disturbed, never again. The 3.7 rating or whatever ratings has by the time you view it are lying to you. You'd be better off staying somewhere else. Normally Hilton has some pretty decent places, but I'm ashamed to say this place generally felt very... meh. I'm not making this one star because the receptionist was nice about my reservation, even after having a bit of a hard time finding our reservation (someone else's reservation showed up for us somehow) and found an accessible room for my family and I (elderly individuals in my family). Very old and outdated, no valet or bellman as mentioned above. Very deceiving looks. I would say goodnight (as of the time of writing this), but I doubt I'll be getting any sleep after the "pillow hair incident" of haunting my dreams.

The service is very good, but they do need to work on getting you into your room on time. The maid service is exceptional. We also love the valets. This hotel is expensive, but great for a special occasion. It has a full bar, room service and at least 3 eateries. We loved having brunch there. Their eggs benedict are just great as is all the food. We did not get a chance to try the other eateries. We loved the pool. The only issue I had was the AC kept going on and off and that is not okay with me, but I assume they have repaired it. You will love this place.

After housekeeping cleared a used teacup from my room earlier in the day, it wasn't replaced...something I'd expect as a basic standard at a hotel of this caliber. I called to request a new one and ended up waiting 21 minutes before calling back for the status on it. I was then told that they would follow up on it and I'd receive an update on the status. 7 more minutes go by - no cup, NO UPDATE. I called back one final time, to which the man on the phone said, yes he put in a rush order and the man who's delivering it is elderly and it might take him just a few minutes longer. I said no problem but just so you know, my cup was taken earlier in the day and not replaced. The man then said he can definitely let housekeeping know for next time. I proceeded to respond and intended to say okay great but before I could even get to the great, he STRAIGHT UP HUNG UP ON ME. Also the person who delivered the cup was a younger boy so idk if the elderly man reasoning was just an excuse for the moment. I went down to the lobby immediately to speak to the manger in person and let her know how insanely unprofessional, unpleasant, and UNCOOL this was. They made an error and I got attitude back for it?! AT A FIVE STAR HOTEL. To their credit, she did apologize and sent up dessert, but by that point the issue wasn't about the teacup or a free comped anything. It was about the breakdown in communication, lack of respect, and service quality. Overall, not the level of service I anticipated for the price, which is disappointing. I will not be staying here again and don't recommend it for anyone else looking for a true five star experience.

The building is three stories, I believe and each room has balcony access. I got an oceanfront room. The view from the balcony is absolutely stunning! The best part of my stay was the breakfast room service where I got an omelette, potatoes, steel cut oatmeal and fruit juices. I ate outside to the stunning ocean views and crisp sunny beach weather. Each room is very cozy and has an electric fireplace. Since I went at the end of April, I definitely used the fireplace at night. I ordered a large baked chocolate chip cookie à la mode in the evening before bed and ate it in front of the cozy fireplace. Another impressive feature was the heated Toto toilet in the restroom. I'm normally grossed out by hotel toilets but this fancy toilet made the toilet inviting and attractive. The toilet was sensor flush and you could use it as a bidet too I think, though I didn't use it that way. The bed was very comfortable and the shower had many settings that made it feel like a spa shower where the jets were able to hit different parts of your body like a jacuzzi massage feature. The reason I'm giving four stars is for the cleanliness of the restroom. The room was nearly $1000 a night so I expected the whole room, including the restroom to be spotless. However, there was some leftover hair in the sink and shower from the previous occupant. That really grossed me out and affected my general impression of the place. Hopefully they will improve their house keeping maintenance so I can change my rating to five stars. Overall, it was a great staycation however.

Although I recommend this business based on its location, atmosphere, this critique is directed…read moretowards the restaurant. This hotel charges anywhere from 600 to over $1000 a night so it is not in a class of Hotel where you expect them to skimp on the food. However, the bakery goods they serve are brought in from somewhere else, not prepared on site, and refrigerated so when you have a chocolate croissant, you have the choice of having them bake it, which turns into melted chocolate or not warmed, which makes it taste like rubber. While this is somewhat of a petty complaint there are just certain things you expect of hotels that cater to people who can pay anywhere from 600 to a couple thousand dollars a night and you expect that certain things are in line with that degree of expense. However, in this case, not only the croissants, but the food and menu is somewhat marginal and clearly they are in need of someone new overseeing the kitchen Also, when I did ask for the manager, someone introduced himself as a person who was on duty not necessarily the manager in the response I got is something that I really dislike. The response is that we've been doing this for years. Having refrigerated bakery goods is not something they should be doing for years at this type of restaurant. This is one thing that really needs to be changed if I want refrigerated, croissants, or pastries I I can go to Ralph's or Vons or a grocery store. Frankly, even a donut shop has better bakery goods than this hotel.

I've stayed at the BW Redondo Beach Inn a few times, and each time my room has been large, clean and good. However, I got home in Nov'25 from one of the longest rainstorms in LA history and the already cramped and not enough parking spaces parking lot was full of construction materials. I can't understand on a weekend why they couldn't be put somewhere else? Also, despite checking in around 4:30pm, they had not held our room on the top floor I had asked for, so there was some noodling around to get it. We got a very large room on the top floor and everything was perfect, except on night 2 the roof starting a slow leak. They offered to move us, but it wasn't a huge deal, but beware, they are working on the rooms now for awhile.

If you stay here, you will regret it. There was a maid that was so unprofessional. She hit a…read moreguest's car and when I pointed it out to her she didn't even care. I was walking from my second floor room to the first floor and she had the audacity from the second floor to throw a really heavy stack of dirty laundry bedding in front of my path to the first floor into a really big black tub on wheels. Seriously she's so lazy, walk the dirty laundry down to the bottom of the step. It's not that far. Since the parking lot is obviously uneven, when the dirty laundry crashed into the large oversized tub, the tub rolled and hit a mint red Tesla that had no pre-existing damage. Photo attached. I told her that she hit the red Tesla with her bin because she threw it. She told me it didn't matter because there's no damage. I looked at her and said that is SO unprofessional. I shook my head and disbelief. I also went to use the microwave in my room and apparently the microwave in my room automatically locks your food in there. So while waiting for the maintenance person to come unlock it. (Obviously when you're microwaving food, you're ready to eat it right away). He didn't arrive so I figured it out myself, in the middle of the sea of buttons, there was an actual "unlock" button. I've never seen or noticed that before. Even though you don't lock the microwave, apparently it locks on its own and so I was able to figure it out and unlock it myself. I went to the front desk to check out and I told him about both of the issues and he did apologize but didn't do anything about it and just gave me my receipt. I also have never in my entire career with a company had to personally pay for the hotel room because it's billed out. This hotel actually billed my personal card instead of the company direct bill. This went all the way to corporate in order to fix it and all the way to our travel company as well. I will never stay here again. There is also no window facing the outside parking lot. It's just dark red walls so the room feels very enclosed and contained. I've never not seen a window no window facing the outside.
