The hotel is situated on the beach, just feet from the Pacific Ocean. The hotel is located within walking distance of everal restaurants, a convenience store, and shopping. I loved that I could park my car when I checked in, and leave it, until I checked out.

My wife, 7 year old daughter and I had a wonderful stay. While the property may feel “older” to some, there was such an authentic charm to the property and it was in very great condition. Our room was a great size and we appreciate clean it felt. The pool was a perfect size and while the hot tub was small, we could always find a time to enjoy it. The neighborhood is quiet and felt safe and there are shops and restaurants in under a 5 minute walk. We would highly recommend staying here - especially if you have children you’re traveling with! We hope to be back and bring our other two kiddos with.

Very quant beach side hotel . Great location . Perfect if your goal is just the beach . The pool and jacuzzi are pretty small and workout room is dinky . The rooms are average , you pay for your view and proximity to the beach . So if that’s your goal the price is right .

Good stay but more expensive than we usually do.

Nice building, old but well maintained. The area is nice and the beach is right there. We didn't like that the bar/restaurant closed at 9PM. Front desk was helpful. We thought it was way too expensive and only stayed because some other family was there.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Somewhat disappointed in our stay at La Jolla Shores Hotel. The property is older and showing its age. We sprang for an ocean-front room and the balcony was of limited use -- strangely configured with pillars and a weird zigzag design, and filthy -- although the view was great if you stood at the end at looked out. Other family members stayed at the hotel too and their balcony was lovely so it's not an issue with every room. We experienced a slew of minor problems (the door to the adjacent guestroom wouldn't lock; problems with the toilet; the hotel shuttle taking us to an event was so late we'd finally jumped in alternative transportation by the time it arrived; the staff billed the wrong card and it took 5 phone calls to get that fixed). Definitely nothing major and the staff was friendly and accommodating when something popped up -- even left us a fruit plate after the shuttle incident. Overall, I wouldn't say the hotel is bad, just rather meh considering the price. But you can't beat the location on beautiful La Jolla Shores. That's what you're paying for!
