Le Petit Pali Laguna Beach

Our room was clean and comfortable. It was quiet . Easy access to beach and places to shop and eat. Easy parking.

Clean room. A variety of amenities. Only 5-minute walk from a beach with beach chairs that guests can borrow. The cookie-delivery service was something I never experience. I also have never experienced a hotel who is continuously checking in with guests before, which also gave me a great impression about this place. Lastly, Great breakfast.

Le Petit Pali Laguna Beach is a beautifully designed boutique hotel in a perfect location—just across the street from one of the area’s most scenic beaches. Every space, inside and out, is thoughtfully decorated and impeccably clean. Our room had lovely touches like Antipodes water in glass bottles, chocolates at check-in, and nightly cookie delivery. Each morning began with a champagne breakfast, complete with baked goods, fresh juices, coffee, tea, mimosas, and adorable jars of jam to take with you. The in-room amenities felt luxurious, from Diptyque bath products to a T3 hair dryer and plush robes. The staff was outstanding—friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Mo, in particular, made breakfast even more enjoyable. The saltwater pool is peaceful and beautifully landscaped, with soft music and fountains that create a relaxed, romantic vibe (but it’s also great for families). Shops, restaurants, and a CVS are within easy walking distance, making the location both idyllic and convenient. This was a quick getaway for us, but you could easily spend your whole vacation here. I can’t wait to return—or try one of the other Le Petit Pali locations. Highly recommend!

The property has a stylish look and the rooms are well-decorated with quality amenities, but the overall experience did not match the $600 per night price tag. Food options are very limited, mainly small appetizers, and while cocktails and service were very good, the dining did not come close to fitting the price point. The one standout was breakfast, which was fantastic for a true continental spread and even included good champagne being served. It feels like a hidden gem, though I would be surprised if that offering lasts once more travelers catch on. Despite being listed as a VIP property on Expedia, there were no actual VIP perks provided, which was disappointing. The beds were only moderately comfortable and tended to sag in the middle. Parking is another frustration since you pay $25 per night and still struggle to find a spot. The air-conditioning unit was also a nightmare, freezing one side of the bed while the rest of the room stayed warm. The pool area is cute but could be much nicer for the price. Another miss was the lack of body wash during our stay, forcing us to use shampoo instead. For a property that promotes Diptyque as its luxury amenity, overlooking basics like this reflects poorly on housekeeping and management. In short, it is a well-decorated property with great cocktails, service, and a surprisingly good champagne breakfast, but between the food limitations, parking issues, flawed air-conditioning, and the reality of it being a glorified motel, the ove

Pretty, cozy and glamorous boutique hotel. perfect location in front of the beach. Michael the bartender was so nice and friendly! I will go again!

Love how pet friendly it is. Got greeted with dog bed, dog toy, dog bowls and extra bags. Love the touch of the cookies sent to your room the evening

Charming property that is well located and maintained. My room was basic/simple and nicely appointed. Furnishings were all newer and modern as well as comfortable. Staff was friendly and accessible when needed. parking is free and easy; a rarity for a cute coastal town in So Cal. I will stay here again

It’s a super quaint motel right across from the beach. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. I appreciated the bottled water and chocolates, the nightly fresh cookie delivery, the cute English style cups and saucers, and the espresso/tea machine in the room. They have a nice little area in the front where they serve breakfast in the morning, and alcoholic beverages and small plates throughout the day. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Clean and uodatec boutique hotel conveniently located across from a beautiful, world-class resort that charges three times the amount as the Lodge. Yet, you can walk across the street easily with a crossing light and take advantage of beach access or fabulous walks, views and cocktail hour. It is a long walk 2 mile walk into downtown Laguna Beach but there is a free trolley. Also, two nice restaurants, a CVS and a Gelson’s steps away. Parking is very convenient. There is a nice pool Dana Point and San Juan Capistrano a short drive away.

They did such a stunning job on the renovation! It has a very French cozy feel to it. The rooms are beautifully done, and we loved the wonderful breakfast with the various hosts each day. They have a lovely bar area. It’s so close to the beach. I would 100% stay again!

Our room was clean and comfortable. It was quiet . Easy access to beach and places to shop and eat. Easy parking.

We had a phenomenal stay and the staff was incredibly helpful and kind. We traveled with our three young boys and they loved it too. Michael went above and beyond to be kind to us and our boys. The room was clean and comfortable. It’s also a short walk across PCH to one of the best beaches in Laguna!

Enjoyed the fresh, clean room.

We had an amazing stay! Staff, cleanliness, room, location...all top notch!

Very unique clean place

This is a beautiful area, but way too outdated property. At a first night of my stay power went out at 5 in the morning - no light, no air conditioner, no heated pool (by the way a very dirty pool), no WiFi. You can hear everything that is going on in other rooms next to you, barking dogs, TV, people talk. People at reception are were nice and area around is great, room is big and has new floors, but that is about it. They says that room has kitchenette - room has microwave, fridge and kettle (obviously none of it worked with power outrage). No caps, plates, coffee, tea maker etc. No place to hang your clothe.

Nice little boutique hotel, very clean . Good location across from beach. Only stayed one night after a wedding, very comfortable, would consider visiting again, more time .

Great location. Walking distance to the beach, some restaurants, pharmacy and grocery store. Hotel appears to nice from pictures and initial impressions but overnight stay told a different story. Be aware of the following things before booking. Rooms do not have black out blinds. As such at night the room is not that dark and hard to sleep. My unit was extremely muggy, also making it hard to sleep. My units bathroom had several bugs. I’m assuming the bugs got in via the cracks in the room door. Finally, you do hear road noise. With that said I would not recommend this property if you are looking for a good nights sleep.

This boutique hotel was amazing! Everything was clean, decor was impressive, staff was great, location was perfect.

Overall a great experience: Friendly stuff, stylish & clean rooms and common areas, small but high quality breakfast and one of the most scenic beaches just across the street.

This was a lovely stay! I was looking to have a relaxing night in Laguna, and I found this lovely location! It was so nicely designed, with thoughtful elements, very comfortable, and so close to the water! I walked to the beach, and had a great night in the room. I highly recommend booking this place for a stay--and breakfast was fabulous the next morning. The rooms are quite quiet, though some upstairs footsteps could be heard at times. Completely resolved if you are on the 2nd floor! It was not a huge deal, just fyi for sound sensitives!

The suite was adorable! I loved the French country motif. Little odd to have the bathroom sink in the living room. There was a particular attention to some details. I would have added a few things: 1) no trash cans around the outside of the property and only one in the suite; 2) the sink could have used a rack around the base to hang hand towels; 3) the couch could have used a throw; 4) the espresso machine didn’t work or if it did, I wouldn’t know since no instructions were provided and I’m fairly savvy with gadgets. The country style continental breakfast was good — great breads, breakfast pastries, butter, jam, delicious yogurt and granola. But, very few places to sit inside the dining area. Also, wonderful champagne on arrival and mimosas and juices offered at breakfast. Wonderfully friendly staff, although some of the other guests were not so friendly, especially when sitting in such close quarters at breakfast. All in all, a delightful little place to stay. I would certainly stay here again.

Booked this hotel for the weekend of wedding before it was open to the public, so I didn’t know what to expect. I am SO glad I did. My family and friends all enjoyed the beautiful hotel, delicious breakfast, spacious rooms, and easy access to the beach across the street. Michael, the bartender, would be a reason to come back. He was kind, chatty, caring, and a very personable touch to a very memorable weekend. I look forward to coming back for my anniversary!

Our room was nicely refurbished and perfect for what we needed. Bathroom was gorgeous! However the walls and floors were paper thin and we heard every little sound from our noisy neighbors. This is not unique to our room as even when we checked in we could hear ominous footsteps above the registration desk, like it was only a 1/2” plywood floor! WiFi code didn’t work and there’s almost no help from the front desk after hours, like being on a ghost ship. We loved the design, location and price but because there’s no getting around the thin walls, probably wouldn’t return.

Nice older property across the street from beach. Sparse decor, and slow wi-fi that negatively impacted watching TV. Walking distance to multiple restaurants. Would stay here again.

Beautiful property and location. Decor is stunning and very friendly, accommodating staff. Beds were super comfy too!

I absolutely adore Le Petit Pali Laguna Beach. My stay was wonderful and I didn’t ever want to leave. Every detail was curated to perfection and my time was a very relaxing and luxurious experience from check in to check out. I have two slight complaints that did bother me just a bit. The ac unit inside my room was so incredibly loud, it sounded like an electric blender the entire time it was on. And the lights in the bathroom have a very quick sensor. Many times while in the shower at night, the lights shut off leaving me completely in the dark. I had to repeatedly open my shower door which was irritating. But other than that, it was perfect!

We had a wonderful stay at PP Laguna! The room was cozy and it was obvious someone put a lot of thought into the details. The staff was amazing. Everyone was incredibly friendly and made us feel welcome and at home. So much so my son (a toddler) was high-fiving the staff and asking me why we were leaving. We will definitely be back ! Thanks for a great stay.

I'd like to share that the TV would play movies because the WiFi connection was bad, it was nice location and staff was polite

We traveled with our two, teenage sons for the weekend and had a phenomenal experience at La Petit Pali. #1 thing was the service. Excellent bartender, great service over happy hour and breakfast. Hotel Design was adorable, every detail acounted for and bathtub was deep. Location is also excellent with beautiful beach walk across the street.

I should say first that the inside of the room was excellent. Very comfortable bed, good coffee, very clean and recently remodeled.. Not much of a view--none, actually--it had more of a daylight basement feel. When I asked for a different location, I was told that if I wanted a view, I should have booked a better room. Further, I didn't get to check in until after five because the room was not ready,. I was told that "check-in times are not guaranteed," and "that's true at all hotels." funny, that has happened only once before in 30 years of frequent travel, and when it did, I was compensated with an upgrade. Not here, though. When I suggested a late check out, I was told to ask in the morning, but warned that "it might not be possible." When hotels.com attempted to intervene on my behalf (I asked for a no penalty cancellation, so that I could go find a room that actually was ready), I'm told that the front desk said i was being untrue. i'm not a fan of complaining, and I wouldn't if I didn't feel somewhat gaslit by the whole process. I won't stay here again ...even if the (inside of) the room was lovely.

We had a phenomenal stay and the staff was incredibly helpful and kind. We traveled with our three young boys and they loved it too. Michael went above and beyond to be kind to us and our boys. The room was clean and comfortable. It’s also a short walk across PCH to one of the best beaches in Laguna!

The the entire staff was welcoming and helpful, especially Katie at the front desk and micheal at the bar. We loved the retro look of the room and how well designed it was. The breakfast was amazing eggs and croissants and coffee were delicious. Fantastic location we walked to the beach and had easy access Cannot wait to stay at another pali house hotel, as I have heard they have many locations.

This boutique hotel was amazing! Everything was clean, decor was impressive, staff was great, location was perfect.

They’ve done a wonderful job transforming what was probably an old motel six into an original and cool looking and feeling hotel. Service was excellent.

I stayed here with my husband and son for 3 nights. I’m sure it used to be a motel as it looks that style, but has been refurbished to a very high standard. All the decour has been tastefully done and toiletries are Diptique. The breakfast is Continental and delicious with a good choice of quality yoghurt and bakery goods. Great location close to town and the free trolley bus is just outside. I can’t fault it, but if I had to say anything negative I would say it doesn’t warrant a $40 resort fee. I understand most of US hotels do this.

Clean room. A variety of amenities. Only 5-minute walk from a beach with beach chairs that guests can borrow. The cookie-delivery service was something I never experience. I also have never experienced a hotel who is continuously checking in with guests before, which also gave me a great impression about this place. Lastly, Great breakfast.

The Laguna Petit Pali will be our spot going forward. It was a beautiful hotel with great access to the beach. We had a beautiful sunrise morning. Their breakfast was also delicious with local baked goods. It was the perfect weekend getaway and we can’t wait to go back.

Pretty, cozy and glamorous boutique hotel. perfect location in front of the beach. Michael the bartender was so nice and friendly! I will go again!

The hotel was nice right across the street from the beach. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Close to the trolley to access downtown. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting in the laguna area.

What a wonderful stay! They upgraded us to an oceanfront suite, which was lovely. The free continental breakfast was superb. Great everything! And Just in front of the beach!

Lovely and cool property! Right on highway 1!

Perfect location from the beach, easy trolley ride to downtown, amazing food and service, rooms are adorable, beds are so comfortable!, and super clean. Would return without hesitation. Staff takes great care of you!

Absolutely gorgeous with that effortlessly chic French style! You can really tell the design team poured their heart into every little detail. The staff is incredibly friendly—especially Michael, who’s always at the bar ready to welcome you with a drink. The location is unbeatable, right across the street from the Montage Hotel, with stunning ocean views just steps away. We stayed here for my friend’s wedding at the Montage, and it couldn’t have been more convenient. Highly recommend this place—we’ll definitely be coming back and making it our go-to hotel for future Laguna getaways.

I have stayed here at least 4 times and my wife has stayed at least 7 times. Only complaint this time is that they raised the prices and yet no longer serve the complimentary breakfast. That was one thing my wife always looked forward too. At least the pool was heated.

Quality food. Great coffee. The staff was friendly.

Everything was exceptional, the staff, the food and champagne. I could have stayed a month or more. I can’t wait to go back. This will be our go to spot in Laguna

Great breakfast!
