Catalina Island Is One of L.A.'s Best-Kept Secrets

"In August the seaside Hotel Atwater reopened after a restoration that brought back much of the familial character Wrigley imbued it with in 1920, when he hoped to turn Catalina into a world-class holiday destination. Sweet rooms have beds in corals and teal and cozy comforters, while the lobby holds the Wrigley family's albums and heirlooms."

We booked the smallest room and it was small (cruise ship size). However it was very clean and the shower was really nice. Also the beds are very comfortable. Location is key, this hotel is right in the middle of everything you will want to do but was still quiet. The staff are the most friendly ones I have met. They checked us in early and helped get the tour we wanted. I would stay here again when we come back.

The staff at the Hotel Atwater made our stay outstanding! They were all knowledgeable and helpful, booking tours and activities on our behalf including a 15% discount for the tours within their corporate group. ||||While they were all excellent, Lily stood out. She helped us check in a bit early and walked us through the tours and experiences that suited our interests. Bravo to Lily!||||The location was perfectly situated to access tours and some pick up directly at the hotel. ||||We will definitely come back on our next visit.

We had an incredible experience! We stayed here during our honeymoon and the staff made it really special for us. They had great recommendations, and you also get a discount on island activities through the hotel, so wait to book your tours until you receive the discount code from the hotel! The location was fabulous, we were able to walk everywhere with no trouble. We appreciate the little coffee shop they had downstairs on the day we left.

The Junior Suite is not worth paying the extra money for. We were told it was recently renovated but the carpets are so so dirty. The check in and main lobby is beautiful though. And the staff is so nice. I would stay here again just not in a suite the view was bad too.

Lovely hotel! You can feel the history of the building and the island from the moment you walk into the beautifully restored and updated lobby. The room was comfortable, modern, and for a very old building it was still pretty quiet (yes, it's an old building, you will hear footsteps above you a little or passersby in the hall, but the noise was very, very minimal). The town of Avalon is tiny, but it still helped that the hotel is perfectly situated at the heart of it all. The adjacent coffee/breakfast spot was great for running downstairs in the morning for coffee and pastry, too. Gratis beach towels were a perfect touch to make the trip easy. The front desk staff were always accommodating, professional, and wonderful to deal with. We were only there for two nights, but I highly recommend the hotel.

Hotel Atwater is my go-to spot when staying on the Island. The staff are friendly, helpful and just overall accommodating. I really do appreciate (Livia) the hotel front desk receptionist, who was just awesome. She went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant and memorable. The Atwater has a great location, it’s quiet and it has a Bistro. The Atwater has a luggage service to and from the ferry /hotel. They will also store your luggage prior to check in and after check out. I'm looking forward to my next stay at the Atwater Hotel.

My family enjoyed our stay so much. The rooms were clean and well-appointed. The staff was delightful. I'm happy we stayed here instead on the mainland. Hiking and views enriched us. I will tell my friends to stay here.

I recently stayed two nights at the Hotel Atwater with a friend. The hotel is conveniently located half a block from the shore, near restaurants and shops. The lobby is very inviting, and a hotel cafe is next door where you can pickup a light breakfast and coffee. The staff is exceptional, especially Lilly, Matthew, and Joe. They are the gold standard of customer service. The room was an adequate size and clean.
