There is a lot of charm in this hotel. It is a relic of the 1920's, replete with romantic features of the era; lovely stone walkways, large elegant common areas, a wonderful authentic vibe. My daughter and I shared a deluxe queen room on the fourth floor which we were told when a checking in was "quite large with a... More

even though some floors were under renovations, this hotel is simply stunning and amazing. Staff is top notch, views are spectacular, even our room that looked right at another building - we could still see La Jolla cove. The beds were super comfy, rooms were clean and well kept, and we LOVED that they had keurig brewers in the rooms!... More

Although there are areas of visible wear, the Grande Dame of La Jolla holds her own due to the location and friendly, helpful staff. The food is fantastic (the seared scallops were divine and the lamb was also excellent). Both the pastry chef and the bar tender deserve 5 stars! Usually, I detest buffets but the Mothers' Day Brunch was... More

Excellent service and food. The staff at La Valencia is always very accomodating and provide excellent service for our group. We've been gathering there for annual luncheons for the past several years and will continue the tradition due to the excellent customer service they provide. Thank you Leo and Eva and the rest of the staff.

I recently had the pleasure of attending a Company sponsored event at the La Valencia Hotel. My company was very happy with the outstanding customer service, starting with the events coordinator Leo down to the valet boys out front. Every single staff member was ready and willing to be of service to us. The Catering crew delivered the daily meals... More

I booked this hotel based on reviews from this site. I was NOT disappointed. It looks a little cheesy from the street but once inside its very quaint. Built in the 30's I believe and the floors are quirky. But it's kind of cool actually. Food was excellent and the server georgei was very knowledgeable on wine pairings, etc. food... More

What a delight! Booked this hotel because of a wedding we went to in La Jolla. Traditional, old world feel but with today luxury. The room was large with a fireplace, large slider that opens to a balcony overlooking grass area and ocean. TIP. You can park behind the hotel and save valet parking. (No parking fee for evening )

This historic hotel is absolutely lovely in every way. The lobby, restaurant, & hallway Spanish decor was beautiful as was the hotel exterior, landscaping, and pool area. The room was modern & comfortable. The ocean views are breathtaking. The hotel is impeccably maintained. It is conveniently located near the beach, great shopping, galleries, and other restaurants. The hotel restaurant is... More

Stayed here a few days prior to moving to San Diego for a conference. We had stayed here 18 years ago when we were visiting San Diego and I was a little worried it might not be as nice as I remembered but no problem, it was as nice if not better. I believe all the rooms have been refreshed... More
