Hotel Laguna
Hotel Laguna is located on the "California Riviera" in downtown Laguna. The current hotel is located on the site of the wooden hotel that was the first multi-story commercial structure in the village in the 1880s. The current hotel was dedicated in 1930, just in time to house guests traveling down the extension of Pacific Coast Highway. The hotel lounge and rooms on the oceanfront housed people from the film industry, including Lauren Bacall and Humphrey Bogart. The hotel underwent a major renovation in 1985. The hotel now offers 63 rooms and two "mini-suites." Other room services include private beach access, complimentary breakfast and daily newspaper. Beach umbrellas, towels, chaises and surf wait staff are provided to each guest taking advantage of the private sandy beach located directly off the lower level of the hotel. Optional services include massages. Dining is available in the Lounge, The Terrace (open air dining on the hotel balcony), and at the Claes Restaurant.
