my only knock on the place is no free WiFi. Thought that was lame for a Del Mar hotel. Good and cheap place for a short stay. Rooms can be small and would hate to be here for a week. King beds rock best ever slept in.

Family of 4 kids and 2 parents. Off to San Diego Zoo and Legoland. Stayed for 4 days. We were given 2 adjoining rooms which is very convenient and cheaper than a 2 BR Suite. Loved the Choc Chip Cookies! The Best! Got very good rates as we booked and paid in advance through their website. Highly recommend the place!

Nice rooms, friendly and efficient staff, and a great pool area. Enjoyed drinks on the terrace. Only blip in our stay were the excruciatingly slow elevators.

Standard Doubletree hotel in a good location next to the I-5 in Delmar. Access can be tricky trying to find your way from the freeway to the hotel due to street layout. Front desk was very friendly and efficent, room was clean, beds were comfortable and we noticed a number of dogs staying with owners, probably due to the pet... More

When I stayed at this hotel about ten years ago, the overpowering smell of weed from the next room, along with a few other annoyances, almost sent me packing. This time I was greeted with a smile and half a dozen Doubletree Cookies. The breakfast was good and the bed super comfortable. The prepaid rate was a bargain. No problems.... More
