orchid123 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 I wanted to thank this board, again, for helping me book a recent hotel stay. We bid $48 (4* Orange County - Newport/Hungtington Beach) and it was accepted on the first try. We got the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach at $48/night! We had a really nice stay. It's an older hotel with access to rooms from the outside, but it's kept in good condition, we enjoyed the pool/hot tub and the grounds are nice and spread out. Pleasant, updated lobby. We had a nice breakfast at their restaurant "Sol." They have a spa but we didn't use it. Also - a nice gift shop and little cafe for coffee in the morning. Ping Pong and shuffle board, too.The location is awesome. Minutes to the beach (Corona Del Mar), short drive to Balboa Island (walkable really) and very close to Fashion Island as well. Would stay here again!Also - from reading Tripadvisor reviews, found out you can park on Back Bay Drive (behind the hotel) and park along the quiet street for free! We could use the back gate/pathway and walk to our room in less than a minute. Otherwise you pay over $30/day for parking! Great tip.We were in Irvine for a medical appointment so needed a nice hotel for a great price -- thanks Better Bidding!Sorry - my dates were actually 11/29/09-12/02/09
