Sonesta Hotel South el Monte hotels

"When you arrive, the staff is very courteous. They made the check-in process very easy. When we got to the room, it was very clean and spacious. The checkout process was very easy because they sent you a link and once you click the link, you can choose to check out at the moment or at your checkout time. We didn’t get to experience the rooftop bar since it was a Sunday, but there was a private event. The room we stayed in was right next to the elevator and stairs and the ice machine so that was not a great experience. I had to place a towel at the bottom of the door due to the fact that there was a large gap between the door and the floor. But other than that, it was a good place to stay."

"Always meets expectations...definitely my go to for an airport hotel. Clean, friendly staff."

"Walkable to Disney land."

"We stayed at the Howard Johnson this past Friday and had an excellent experience from start to finish. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and made check‑in incredibly smooth. Our room was clean, comfortable, and surprisingly spacious — exactly what we needed after a long day. We’ve stayed at many of the neighboring hotels over the years, and this one easily rises to the top of our list. The property is well‑maintained, feels safe, and has thoughtful touches that make the stay feel genuinely cared for. One of the biggest highlights is the location. The proximity to Disneyland and Disney California Adventure is unbeatable — our walk from the hotel to the park gates was only about eight minutes door to door. It made getting in and out of the parks incredibly convenient and stress‑free. It was the perfect place for a quick getaway, and we’ll absolutely be returning the next time we’re in the area. Highly recommend!"

"The room was immaculate and staff helpful and happy. There is no arcade on property as the listing suggests. The outdoor poor area and the back courtyard with coy pond are beautiful. There are cute little places throughout the hotel for photo ops! The bar/cafe has limited menu-card only, they do accept cash tips. Housekeeping will only clean your room if you ask. The food and coffee were delicious. Room service was delayed and our food was cold but they were very apologetic about the mix up. Great location and they do have a shuttle but we did not use it, we had a rental car and once you check in-you use your key card to get in and out of the parking garage and you are billed for parking after you check out. Overall a wonderful stay and we would totally stay there again whenever we are back in the area!!"

"room and staff was nice. I liked that they locked the doors at 10pm so the only way to enter is if you have a key card, makes the hotel feel more safe."
