Beautiful view in irvine california from Hotel Irvine

Here’s a great view I captured with my camera. Each night offers a spectacular view.

Hotel Irvine is a beautiful hotel, massive palm trees surround the building, and walking around the area is a relaxing experience.

Everyone working the front desk is helpful and I’m sure asking for a good view will work too.

I enjoyed walking around the hotel at night. The weather gets a little cold at night so be sure to bring a light coat.

You just got to Hotel Irvine…

First, let me guess, most of you are probably traveling to Hotel Irvine and may not want to go get dinner outside of the hotel.

No worries they do late night hand foods. Room service is fast, they charge it to the room, and the food is very affordable.

The hotel lobby has art, some plants, a bar, a few lounges, a gym, and a place for weddings & private events.

Hotel Irvine and the Market Place are a great mixture.

Generally, Hotels have a little menu or dining area. Hotel Irvine offers a dining area and a secondary place to get food called the Market Place.

You can phone in late night room service and they will personally go grab you goodies inside of the store too.

Water, pizza, panini, soda, fancy candy, etc.

You know you like pizza when you order it twice. The margarita pizza at Hotel Irvine is delicious.

I personally enjoyed the pizza so much… I ate pizza two nights, one night after the next night.

I’m a little piggy.

Or I’m just a big fan of pizza?

Let me get back to the review – the view is amazing. Hopefully, you have a balcony view.

Hotel Irvine Market Place is truly delicious

My first night I was surprised by how yummy the food was at Market Place in Hotel Irvine. The pizza was pitched over the phone as ‘extremely good’ and I also had a bit of a sweet tooth too.

Ask the person on the phone to grab their favorite snacks too. I gave the guy a spending limit and was pleased with the results.

When the bill came to the room, I was blown away that I was completely full with only $15.

Hote Irvine isn’t overpriced like other California Hotels.

If you’re reading this and wondering, “How the hell did you spend $15 in California, on dinner, at a hotel!”

Well, my response to you is – they simply have good prices and good food. After a few 100% travel jobs, I want to say this is one of my favorite hotels in a few years.

The Market Place is yummy and affordable is the tip of the iceberg at Hotel Irvine too.

Let me explain why!

I’m putting you to the test – try to find something beautiful and inspiring around Hotel Irvine. If you’ve read this far, you may even leave a comment about what you found, in the comments below.

Here’s what I found.

Being around Microsoft, Coca-Cola and other big headquarters is a great feeling, and being in the technology industry for nearly a decade has really made me appreciate these little things.

I’m not surprised these companies have an HQ in this location, it’s beautiful here in Irvine California.

I didn’t expect to find these headquarters on my walk, I had no idea where I was going, and it turned out to be a very inspiring walk.

I’m excited to bring my wife and son here next.

Hotel Irvine was a great hotel overall and I’m excited to return.
