The Glenmore Plaza was amazing to stay at. Hailey at the front desk was extremely sweet and welcoming. I can’t wait to be back in the summer and I will be recommending the hotel to others.

Gloria, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

✨ First trip to Catalina and I’m officially obsessed! The island is breathtaking — ocean views, charming streets, and the kindest people everywhere you go. 💙 I stayed at The Glenmore and it was such a vibe — cozy, historic, and full of character. The staff were beyond friendly and made me feel right at home. There’s no elevator (they offered me a first-floor room), but I chose the third floor for the view and it was totally worth it. 🌅 Highly recommend this spot if you’re planning a Catalina getaway. Can’t wait to come back! 🌺🏝️

I wanted to share what a wonderful time we had during our stay at Glenmore Plaza Hotel. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, and our room was both quiet and clean. The central location in downtown Avalon was perfect, allowing us to walk to everything within minutes. We truly enjoyed our visit.

Perfect location / friendly staff

Very friendly staff and helpful. We were able to leave our luggage in storage area after check out while we enjoyed Catalina Island for the last three hours before our ferry departed.

Marlan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location, but the breakfast was poor and the key didn't work on our room so we had to get the front desk to open the door each time.
Christopher, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful details throughout, and everything is so comfy. This was our second time here and without hesitation they carried our bags upstairs. Every time we walked in the lobby, someone had something kind to say we were always addressed and spoken to and welcomed. This is a very special place to stay and it is so beautiful.

Julio, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Good and reasonable

The staff is great, the hotel is nice and the bed was super comfy. My room had a view of a ladder and roof and there was a lot of “industrial” noise all night so I wore earbuds. Its right in the heart of things and very walkable.
