Long Beach hotels

If you want to experience a unique and historical side of Long Beach, stay in a room on the Queen Mary. The Queen Mary is a retired steamship that now functions as a museum with several permanent exhibits and a hotel. Many visitors have claimed that the ship is haunted, and you can sometimes catch a ghost tour for a modest price.

Because it’s easy to explore Long Beach by car, a simple way to save money is to choose a hotel that offers free parking. The Best Western of Long Beach is a standard choice that is less than four miles from the Queen Mary and provides guests with both free parking and breakfast.

Hoping to spend most of your vacation by the ocean? Choose a hotel by Alamitos Beach, such as The Westin. Due to its relatively calm waters and large sandy shores, Alamitos Beach is a popular destination for sunbathers, bikers, volleyball players and swimmers.

If you’re visiting Long Beach to attend a convention, concert, or speaking event, pick a hotel near the Long Beach Convention and Entertainment Center. The Renaissance Long Beach Hotel is a relaxed choice that is only a 13-minute walk from the center and a 15-minute walk from the ocean.

For good shopping opportunities in Long Beach, opt for a hotel next to the Shoreline Village shopping mall, such as the Best Western Plus, only a 20-minute walk to the mall. Shoreline Village is full of small boutiques, dining options, and shops like Queen Mary Couture and Seabreeze Jewelry and Sunglasses.
