The 244 room/suite Crowne Plaza Los Angeles Harbor rises ten storeys above downtown San Pedro, providing long distance views over the Port of Los Angeles, San Pedro Bay and the Long Beach coastline. World Cruise Center is less than a mile away, and the nearest beach (Royal Palms) is 3.7 miles southwest on the far side of town - both locations within reach of the complimentary 5 mile local area shuttle. Facilities at the Crowne Plaza include an on-site restaurant (Juliette's), serving Asia influenced-Californian dishes, and open all day for room service, dinner, lunch & breakfast. The hotel's large outdoor pool is situated on the sunny south side of the hotel, next to but one floor above the neighboring street; other leisure facilities are a sauna, whirlpool and fitness center. Meeting facilities comprise 12 rooms, accommodating up to 380 guests, theater-style.

Clarion Inn San Pedro presents an unusual frontage, built to resemble a grand European lodge; inside, the decor and furnishings are similarly historic in appearance, and help create a calm, refined atmosphere. Facilities at the 60 room hotel are right up to date, however, and include an all-day restaurant/lounge (room service and event catering available), a fitness center, a peaceful outdoor pool & hot tub in a secluded courtyard at the rear, and a 250 capacity meeting room. The hotel is located right in the center of San Pedro along Gaffey St, a lively road with many restaurants. Port of Los Angeles cruise ship terminal is one mile away, and one of its former visitors the Queen Mary is 7.5 miles east, near Long Beach.
