Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“The whimsical, nature-inspired décor, warm, informal Southern California-style service and coastal views easily compensate for an architecturally unexciting exterior, while the poolside bar and penthouse restaurant justify a night in at Hotel La Jolla.”

An amazing stay!!

Our room was newly renovated and sparkly clean. Although it was only on the fourth floor, the view was still amazing. Beds were super cozy. The elevators are currently being renovated and the wait is a little longer than usual, but manageable. Our incredible experience here was rounded out by friendly and helpful staff!

Stuck in a rundown mess in an ada room. Avoid.

Absolutely nothing. Completely regret booking this room.

Rundown hotel with a mediocre renovation. They stuck me in an ADA room and would not move me to a normal room.

Great location. The staff was great when I checked in!

As I was checking out. The lady at the front desk did not acknowledge me. I waited about 5 minutes before she asked what I needed. I let her know I was checking out. She said, "You can leave your cards here." I asked for a receipt, and she then stated, "It will be emailed to you." I said, "No, I would like a copy." It seemed to be an inconvenience to her.

Good location.

Location

The room did not have enough blankets on the bed. The room was dark. The room did not have a working keurig coffee maker. Ever time I turned the coffee pot on the lights would go out in the room. Hair dyer broken. There was no information in the room about the hotel or the near by area. The balcony was dusty and dirty. No hot tub! Not streaming service. No food service. Just a semi decent room. Great location.

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER

WORST experience ever...the Hotel decided after my stay to charge me an amount that was never informed to me. I had my room booked and prepaid via Booking.com and the hotel decided to charge me in adition. It has been two months since I'm dealing with the Hotel without any clear answer.

Nothing! I had one of my worst experience in my life!

The property is not providing the quality service of Hilton Standard, they charged us for a sea view room and we had a noisy room next to the highway. The property is next to the highway so be prepare to 24 hours a day car noise. They charged you for breakfast even though it is included in the package and they say that they give you 22 dollars credit and everything else is charged. They have very few things for this price. They do not have a buffet so is all a la carte. They do not clean the room unless you specifically asied for it. More than an hotel is like a low class motel service. The best thing you can do is staying away feom this hotel . There are much better hotels in la Jolla, sea view and no highway noise. I do not recommend it at all.

The front desk staff were especially accommodating and welcoming. Eric? Very helpful. There was a barman, Oscar I think who was also very kind and welcoming out by the pool.

I was surprised to receive charges for a resort fee of $25 and a parking fee I was not aware of before I booked my room. Those two charges increase the per night room rate to a level higher than I would have liked to have paid.

Very disappointing. Poor quality of service for very high price per night.

The rooms are comfortable and calm if you are on the ocean view.

Staff is not very friendly, it seems they were not hospitality-trained. Rooms are very old fashioned. There is no fridge in the room. They do not have buffet breakfast and the prices per meal are expensive. I paid 400 dollars per night for very poor service.

Good hotel in a great location with helpful friendly staff

Location of hotel was very good. Room was well appointed and comfortable. Staff were unfailingly helpful and friendly. Great bar and restaurant with lovely view of the shore. Breakfast was excellent.

Hotel pool and sun bed area small and does not get much sun. Housekeeping should perhaps clean room every day

Family Birthday Celebration

The location is top notch. Sunsets are amazing because you overlook the town and the ocean.

The parking lot was open for 90% of our stay there. It felt silly that we paid so much for parking and the access was very lightly guarded --meaning almost anyone could park there at any time (including very late at night)

Perfect hotel with magical views!

We loved our stay here.. the hotel is so fresh and modern, the rooms are beautiful and the ocean view is stunning. It is positioned so nicely just off the water but within walking distance to everything. The beds & pillows were so comfy. Will definitely be back

The lady who checked us in wasn’t very helpful & the water temp was temperamental but that’s honestly it.

Nice location with somewhat ocean view

Loved the location and scenery nearby the hotel

There was a scaffold surrounding the building and noisy construction starting early in the morning so the ocean view rooms are ocean view but with an obstruction you cannot ignore. Our room was not acceptable in terms of cleanliness which was a bummer bc we had to wait for it to be cleaned.

Decent

I loved how modern the rooms were, as well the hotel lobby & pool area! The front desk texts you to make sure you’re doing alright and enjoy the room, but when I brought up my concerns nothing was done except waiving the first night of parking. As if my room being dirty wasn’t enough.

The bed sheets were dirty and had crumbs, as well the balconies in our room were filthy and had all kinds of trash from the previous stay/ stays. Not to mention, there were things left behind from the previous stay, like a random box to charge your phone. The furniture was dusty, etc. We made do and had a lovely time, but we were definitely icked out. Our area of balconies were on the side of the hotel that was being renovated on, we didn’t get any views we paid for, just scaffolds and construction.
