We found the Glenmore, because the hotel we normally stay at was closed for renovations. What an absolute gem of a find! The hotel is centrally located, the room was very comfortable and in great condition. Most importantly, all of the staff here were absolutely amazing. Possibly the best hotel spirit experience I’ve ever had when you take everything into consideration. We look forward to coming back to Catalina, as we come back frequently, and we will be choosing to stay here from here on.

Room condition was good. But toilet was very noisy and the tv wouldn’t not turn off on our last night and had to put a toilet over it to block some of the light. Also ice machine was not working

Check in was 3:00 but we didn't get our room until 4:30 probably due the Run Catalina event.The room was adequate but the queen mattress needed to be replaced. Good location and staff were nice.
