Lido House, Autograph Collection - Newport Beach, CA [Master Thread]
Hotel website:
http://www.marriott.com/hotels/trave...ph-collection/
Opening March '18.
"At the nexus of Lido Isle, Lido Peninsula and Balboa Peninsula, Lido House is perfectly positioned to celebrate Newport Beach's vibrant city, bustling marina and white-sand beaches. Set on the site of the former City Hall, our Orange County Hotel seamlessly blends classic Cape Cod-style architecture with nautically inspired details to create an icon of sophisticated coastal style. Five tri-level private cottages provide the ultimate respite for relaxation, imparting guests with the privacy of a home with the amenities of a luxury resort. The Mayor's Table, our on-site restaurant, draws inspiration from the nearby Pacific Ocean to create seasonal coastal dishes, while Topside, the rooftop bar and lounge, showcases handcrafted cocktails sure to delight guests and locals alike. Featuring a sun-kissed pool with vibrant courtyard and Boost Spa, focusing on energetic treatments, Lido House is poised to become Newport Beach's new favorite launching point for discovery."
Cheers.

This is an interesting use of the property. I've been wondering what they would do since they relocated city hall up by Fashion Island.
I would warn visitors that while this is a great location if you just plan to stay and explore Newport Beach and Balboa I would not use it as a base for doing a greater SoCal vacation, such as planning to do Disney or other local attractions, at least not in the summer. Traffic in and out of that area is a mess in the summer months as there is only one road in and out of the peninsula.

Excerpt:
The Lido House hotel is an extension of Bob Olson’s house.
Olson, chief executive of hotel builder and owner R.D. Olson Development, said the inn under construction in Newport Beach is modeled after his Balboa Island home, down to the details that welcome people inside.

Excerpt from the link:
"With its Cape Cod architectural style and harborfront setting, the four-story, 130-room boutique hotel, set to open in March on the former Newport Beach City Hall site at 3300 Newport Blvd., is designed to evoke a casual yet sophisticated beach house vibe.
The hotel will offer a spa, a full-service restaurant called The Mayor’s Table, a coffee shop and ice creamery and a rooftop lounge. At Crew, the coffee and ice cream house, the beans will be roasted locally and the syrups made in-house. Project officials tout the rooftop lounge, named Topside, as the only rooftop bar in Newport Beach.
In addition to the cottages, Lido House will have several executive suites, an expansive presidential suite with a view of Catalina Island on a clear day, and standard king- and double queen-bed rooms. The cottages are two-bedroom, two-bath models with full kitchens and living rooms, dedicated parking, washers and dryers, and fireplaces and barbecues on their rooftop decks. Each cottage has a unique floor plan and styling by local interior designers; no two are alike.
Other upscale touches around the grounds include high tea in the parlor off the lobby, valet parking and a saltwater pool with cabanas and Champagne cart service.
The luxurious property will be operated by Marriott as part of its Autograph Collection."
Cheers.
