The hotel location is on a great beach for families and couples and is much more pleasant than near by Mission Beach, which is overrun by 20 somethings. The staff is very attentative and the ocean front views are to die for. The room furnishings are very dated for this price range, but comfortable and clean. In fact, if they... More

The La Jolla Shores Hotel is one of my two favorite hotels. I recommend it to many people because it tells you when it is stingray season. It also lets people from the La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club use their pool and hot tub because they only have a cold pool and kitty pool. The hotel is located right... More

I enjoy staying here for the location. The service is on and off... front desk and management are responsive. Housekeeping and poolside wait service is spotty. But, you're on the beach and the rooms are comfortable. If you can find a good rate, definitely stay here.

i cannot imagine a better setting if you love the beach...yes, hotel is old but it is very clean (love the smell of clean) cozy and the staff is amazing. for example, on one of my beautiful, beach view (best view ever) breakfasts i asked for a to-go container for my raisins...and it came filled with more raisins! that kind...

We spent our 2nd wedding anniversary here in La Jolla-our first time in this part of San Diego. Being New Yorkers, living in a tiny Manhattan apartment we decided to get away from it all to test out the waters and beach life in Southern most tip of California. This is the kind of place that that you often see... More

We had a two night stay. We had a coastal view room that had a northern view of the beach and the park next to the hotel. We were pleased with the room. This is an older property. The beach is just steps from the hotel. La Jolla Shores is one of the nicer beaches in the area, great for... More

We had a much better time here than we thought we would on initial impression. As mentioned by others, this hotel does have a somewhat dated appearance. But surfaces were freshly painted, it was clean, and our room was very comfortable. We had a coastal view with kitchenette on the top floor, which I would recommend. The high-floor rooms have...

If your idea of a nice Coastal View includes looking at junky cars parked alongside the hotel, then this place is for you! The only way to actually see the coastal view was to lean far over the patio railing. Not what we had in mind. The two adjoining rooms we were promised didn't adjoin after all. So we were... More

Our family of five stayed here for a couple of nights over spring break. We had a very good time, with just a couple of hiccups. First the good: -Great location. Our room was at ground level and looked directly out to the beach. Wonderful. -Clean room. Ours was a bit dated, and not super luxurious or huge, but clean.... More
