“Pleasant Stay at Hilton La Jolla”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 13, 2013

We stayed at this hotel on the way back from San Diego to LA (great location, close to the freeway). Great facilities and friendly staff. The room and more importantly the beds! were very comfortable. We had a great night sleep. Will definitely come back. Great value for money.
PS for the hotel manager: the corridors to the rooms seem not to be looked after and can give a negative image to guests before they step into their lovely room with great view or visit the rest of the facilities that the hotel offers.

This refresh project gives both the hotel hallways as well as the guestrooms a modern and rejuvenated look and feel. I invite you to come visit us again in the near future to experience all of our exciting changes.

“Lovely facility, great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 10, 2013

The facility and its amenities are first class. We were there for a five day Conference and had the opportunity to see it from several viewpoints. We experienced a few glitches, as one expects in these situations. Chief among them was the inabiltiy to handle Conference sized numbers at their regular dining facilties in a manner quick enough for our allotted time frames.
It is fairly pricey for a Midwesterner but not for the area, so I would rate it a reasonable value. No off-street parking exists, so one must use the hotel's ramp. I found that objectionable.

“Great value!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 10, 2013

My husband travels a lot for business and this is one of his favorite hotels. Since it's the perfect midpoint between SeaWorld and Legoland we decided it would be our hotel of choice for a family vacation as well (Stayed over New Year's weekend).

First of all you can't beat the price. This is one of the best hotel for the money in San Diego. True, you have to drive if you want to do most of your activities downtown. But even then it's not a bad drive. We were at Balboa Park in less then 20 minutes.

And the view! We're not golfers but we truly can appreciate the beautiful golf course it sits on. The property grounds are gorgeous! We went to the Waldorf Astoria in Maui last June and I dare to say the grounds are comparable at a fraction of the price.

The rooms are a bit dated, which is why the whole hotel is going through a remodel. We never heard any noise though.

We also enjoyed the breakfast buffet (a plus for us is that kids age 5 and younger are free). Omelets, waffles and pancakes are made to order. I did the buffet one day and the regular continental breakfast the other days. Liked the food but just wish there was a bit more variety from day to day.

If you're there, don't miss walking around La Jolla, such a neat town!

Room Tip: Ask for a room with a view!

“Pleasant stay during Christmas”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 28, 2012

No room at our relatives' inn so we spent two nights at the Hilton. It was primarily a place to sleep, so we didn't avail ourselves of much else besides a place to sleep, except for the gym and coffee shop. The room was very comfortable, particularly the beds. The shower, always an important criterion for me, was excellent. The location, right on the golf course was very handy when I played a round during one of our days there.

Only problems were the false alarm at 6:30 AM on the day after Christmas (these seem to follow us for some reason) and the usual problem with Hilton's requirement to pay for wi-fi. Otherwise a nice experience.

“Comfortable Stay at a Convenient Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 28, 2012

We spent 3 nights at the Hilton La Jolla . The stay was generally very comfortable . Dismissing the fact that on our 1st night, we were woken up by a false fire alarm signal which was blared out 6 times!!!! out of a wall sconce speaker in the room at 630 AM. Accidents and false alarms will happen occasionally ( better safe than sorry, this alarm would have definitely woken the dead! ).
The bed was comfortable and the rooms darkened well to reduce most ambient lighting.
Bathroom was large enough and the showerstream was adequate.
The hotel layout was convenient and the setting was attractive and comfortable backing on to the golf course.
Staff was couteous and friendly.
One Note:----- Parking was extra charge***** and the garage entry /exit was a bit cumbersome ( why swipe the room key again when you exit the garage?????)
All in all a comfortable stay.
