My husband and I stayed at Scripps Inn for 5 nights in March/09. We were very tired from traveling all day by air and then car to get to La Jolla and got to the inn just after the sun had set. The inn was lit up subtly - warm and inviting. I would suggest that while it might be... more

Had a great stay. Great location. Very nice staff. Able to easily walk to the shore and downtown for dining and shopping. Nice lanai for an afternoon lunch with a view of the ocean. Room #8, 2 bedroom suite with a beach theme. Very Clean. Drawback is that it was a shared bathroom, but it had an extra sink outside... more

The Scripps Inn in La Jolla, CA is a very nice hotel, but travelers need to have realistic expectations before booking a stay there. Things to consider that may be a disappointment upon arrival: 1) The hotel is separated by a road and a grassy park from the ocean 2) There are no private balconies for the rooms. The "balcony"... more

I had read some bad reviews but was enchanted with the website and thought those people were just really picky. I travel often for work and thought I knew more – was I wrong. This place was a refurbished motel – not a boutique hotel. The location I lovely but the room was not. We had a two bed room... more

Unfortunately, there is a lot of street noise. Additionally, bedroom windows overlook the balcony/walkway that guests use to get to their rooms. So, depending on your neighbors, you can get lulled to... more

We found the Scripps Inn from Trip Advisor reviews, and I'm glad we did! Having never been to San Diego, and in town for a wedding at the Four Seasons Aviara, we needed a place for just one night that was close to the beach. The Scripps Inn is located directly across from the beach near the Children's Pool and... more

I have been going to La Jolla for many years, but always stayed in a time share with my family. This year, my husband and I decided to stay a bit longer and booked the Scripps Inn - a place I had walked by a million times and had always wanted to stay in. I won't stay here again. The... more

I found the Scripps Inn after much searching online for a reasonably priced small, romantic hotel on the beach near San Diego--a combination which was very hard to find! While I will admit that I was initially a little let down that our room didn't face the ocean directly and that our "private balcony" wasn't really private or a balcony... more

We stayed at the Scrippts Inn for one week in May 2008. The location was amazing! The view was spectacular. The staff at the Scrippts in were very pleasant and eager to please. We had a suite that overlooked the pacific ocean it was very clean and the furniture was very confortable. I am very fussy on places that I... more
