Beautiful little hotel staff was super friendly very accommodating their little courtyard in the back very cute and quaint great little breakfast options room was very clean. Bathrooms were remodeled and very clean. Our only complaint would probably be some new pillows, and the bed was probably a little too soft for our liking other than that I would definitely still stay there again.

This place is so clean and beautiful. It feels like home, the moment you walk into it. The staffs are amazing. They are very friendly, welcoming and supportive. The owners took time to make this place unique and comfortable. They carefully thought of the most basic and important needs of mankind and equipped them into their hotel. You will not lack or miss anything, while you are staying here. There are books in the rooms to read, apart from the television. The beds and beddings are very comfortable. The bathroom is very clean. There is always coffee and tea at the Lobby and continental breakfast in the mornings. There is a rooftop terrace with amazing views. Above all, my stay there was awesome.

I book with Avalon Hotel to celebrate my fiancé s 60th birthday. The began communication with me right after booking. We arrived early and room was ready. They provided a nice bottle of sparkling champagne and a personalized card for my fiancé. Hotel and accommodation were perfect, clean and cozy. Breakfast was light and refreshing. Hotel was quiet and you could not hear guests and staff coming and going. We will definitely book with Avalon Hotel every time we go to the island.

Great Experience

Short trip from LA to Catalina. The hotel is convenient- located off the main pedestrian street so was very quiet. They have a lovely courtyard with Koi pond for breakfast. Rooftop deck with great 360 view. Everything was clean and well maintained. Staff was friendly and professional. Would stay again.

Lovely boutique hotel. Charmingly decorated. Thoughtful touches. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. The view from the roof deck is spectacular, especially at night. Conveniently located. Voucher for taxi to and from the ferry is provided -- a really nice extra so you don't have to drag your suitcases over the cobblestone streets.

The staff was lovely the price was outrageous for what it was. For that kind of money at least a "real" breakfast and not frozen english muffins should be served.
