Redondo Beach's Portofino Hotel and Yacht Club, one of the few oceanfront hotels in the Los Angeles area, stands close to many attractions that make Southern California one of the world's most popular tourist destinations. The three story Portofino, a Noble House hotel, perches on a lush private peninsula on King Harbor close to the Redondo Beach Pier, offering guests a welcomed oasis from the bustle of one of America's largest cities. Sun and surf worshippers staying at this Southern California hotel are between two and five miles from Hermosa and Manhattan beaches, while all folks are between 15 and 25 miles from the Queen Mary, Aquarium of the Pacific, Beverly Hills, Hollywood, Disneyland and Universal Studios.
"Ocean view" is the operative phrase at this Southern California hotel. Vacationers can view the sea from the oceanfront swimming pool and whirlpool, and then ride along the beach on the hotel's complimentary bikes. The Portofino's restaurant, Breakwater, which specializes in steak, seafood and live weekend jazz, overlooks the marina and provides indoor and outdoor seating. An upper level dining room with décor reminiscent of colonial Indochina is perfect for romantics to enjoy candelight dinners and water views. The 163 guestrooms feature floor to ceiling windows and patios or balconies overlooking the ocean or marina.
In addition to great views, hotel accommodations include a fitness facility and wireless high speed Internet access in the public spaces and 24 hour business center. Guestrooms also feature contemporary decors, seashell shaped lamps, vibrant bedspreads, potted plants and flowers, wireless high speed Internet access and minibars.
About seven miles from Los Angeles International Airport, the Portofino Hotel and Yacht Club is perfect for families, couples and groups seeking quiet getaways by sea, yet still close to L.A.'s excitement. Business travelers are close to major companies and convention centers.
