We absolutely loved this place. The room was adorable, beds were super comfortable. It’s just a very unique place. However, it does get very loud outside being so close to the ocean and surrounding restaurants/shops. Also, it doesn’t get very dark in the room at bedtime. Some black out curtains or shades would be great.

Located directly on Newport Beach, with a room with a view, just gorgeous!!! A nice bonus was the roof top area to watch the waves and enjoy a cocktail. Very quaint and clean B & B in a great location. Just know it can be a bit loud in the late evening on the weekends, as there are lots of young party goers outside.

The property is homey and quaint, and the staff was friendly and helpful. We didnt care for the oil paintings of topless women in the room and hallways. Not family-friendly. Other than the nudity, the location is great, and the rooftop seating was enjoyable.

Loud and old

When I called, we were told there was valet. If I wanted to park earlier, I could pay $40 extra to park it 2 hours earlier. Nice but not necessary. Turns out there is no valet. It’s a parking lot across the street that you park at and leave the keys with them. The parking is a nice perk but only works from check in to check out. If you want to stay for the day you check out, it is an extra $80 fee. Breakfast was not what I would expect from a bed and breakfast type inn. It was a basic continental breakfast with cold coffee, and a few pastries, cereal, fruit options- we opted to eat elsewhere. Here is the main issue- this hotel has paper thin walls and it is SO loud. I would not recommend staying in room 4. It is right next to the check in area and staff workroom. It was incredibly loud day and night. We had on white noise which covered most of the town noise but we were constantly awakened by the hotel noises- it was NONSTOP all day and night When we checked in, we were told about the patio- a nice touch. I didn’t realize the patio off our room was shared. At 12am when 4 drunk people were screaming over the patio, I had to go out and ask them to be quiet as my kids were sound asleep. Overall, for $450 I expect more. I am bummed because the location can’t be beat. Unfortunately, there were a lot of noises and nuisances that couldn’t be overlooked.

We always enjoy our stay here. We've been coming for years. We now have two wonderful places to stay right on the beach in Newport. Also, the restaurant is divine! Parking at Dorys is free after 2:00. Lots of eateries and things to do. You can walk to Lido or Balboa in 10 mins. Last, their rooftop view can't be beat. It's wonderful to watch the sun set. It sits on a very active corner. They give you ear plugs if you're a light sleeper, but things settle down at night.

A Royal Retreat at Doryman's InnOur recent stay at Doryman's Inn was an absolute delight, offering a charming escape that truly transported us to a bygone era. This quaint, seaside boutique hotel exceeded our expectations, creating a memorable experience from start to finish.The staff at Doryman's Inn were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, making us feel welcome and valued throughout our visit. Their genuine warmth and attentiveness contributed significantly to the relaxed and inviting atmosphere of the hotel.We had the pleasure of staying in Room Number Eight, and it was nothing short of magical. The authentically vintage decor, particularly the enchanting fabric canopy bed, made us feel like royalty. It was a truly unique and immersive experience that perfectly captured the essence of a time long past. While there was some ambient noise from the donut shop next door, which is to be expected when staying so close to the beach, the hotel thoughtfully provided earplugs and a noise machine. Thanks to these amenities, we slept soundly and without any issues.Our culinary highlight was undoubtedly the delicious meal we enjoyed at 21 Oceanfront, the restaurant located conveniently below the hotel. The atmosphere was fun, cozy, and incredibly friendly, making for a perfect dining experience.Doryman's Inn is a true gem for anyone seeking a unique and charming seaside getaway. We highly recommend it for its wonderful staff, distinctive rooms, and thoughtful amenities.

We loved our ocean view room. I love the history. It’s an older property, but we prefer that it’s a very busy area so if you’re sensitive to noise, this may not be your choice. It doesn’t bother us, however.
