The Surf Inn is an excellent budget friendly resort that puts you close to the Main Street pier within walking distance to all of the restaurants and shops. The beach is literally right across the street from the hotel. I highly recommended it to anyone wanting to vacation in Huntington Beach.

Great location to the beach and shopping. Nostalgic building with updates. Shaded free parking. Room 8 is quiet from traffic and street noise. Staff were helpful! The balcony had great sunset views. Fun place to stay! We will be back!

The beach view is unobstructed from the shared deck, which is very accommodating with tables and chairs. The parking was easy and safe and everything is walking distance..it’s perfect for that.

If you REALLY need a place across the street from the beach that won't cost you your firstborn, this place is ok. It's funky surf/skate vibe has appeal. The 2nd floor patio is nice at night. Other than that, the rooms are run down, carpet around window AC unit was wet (and stained all over) holes in wall from towel bar falling out, hinge on door still broken so you have to finagle the door to close it, no coffee maker (can walk 1 block to get coffee). It served it's purpose for our needs for 1 night, but wouldn't want to stay longer unless I was a young person who just wants to surf and doesn't care about much else.

It's an old-school motel with lots of character and charm. Its big advantage is the proximity to the beach. It's literally across the street -- and also walking distance to the downtown district of shops and restaurants.

Our family was so happy with our stay at Huntington Surf Inn. I called going for an early check-in and the staff was so friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and air conditioning worked well. This small hotel is right across the street from the beach, maybe a five minute walk to the water and less than 10 minutes to walk to the pier, shops, and restaurants. We are already planning a summer trip and plan to stay at this hotel again.
