Top San Clemente Hotel Reviews

Patriots Boutique Motel

Patriots Boutique Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved staying at this hotel! We are from the area, and have since moved so this was perfect because it was close to the beach, yet we could walk to get fresh bagels next door, or to Ralph's grocery store. The owner was wonderful ~ friendly and always available. They had chairs and boogie boards to borrow for the beach. The room was very clean and comfortable, and it was quiet, especially considering we were on a main road. The bathroom was very spacious and had a little table to sit and do my make-up. I would stay here again when visiting Orange County."

"We had a wonderful, restful stay here. The room was spacious and very comfortable. Our room was immaculate. The bed was comfortable. The sitting room -- couch and ottomans -- made for a relaxing space to watch the large screen tv. The bathroom was very clean. Because of the weather (rain) we were unable to use the pool and hot tub, but will next time. Breakfast had many options and the breakfast area was very welcoming. Check-in staff were friendly and professional. We will return."
