Historical property with great potential but in serious need of a face lift. Common areas are aged and stairs are dirty. Room was clean and remodeled but needed paint. Shower was never really hot. Rooftop bar is excellent as is the view. Staff helpful. Parking was a little tight.

Staying here was great! The staff was super kind and helpful with instructions for parking and check in/check out was quick and simple! My only complaint is that in our room, one of our towels was dirty, as if someone used it to squish a flying bug. Otherwise everything else was clean. I will be visiting again and would recommend this place to a friend!

Lovely, quiet rooms in a hotel with character. Laguna Beach is very nice with lots of shops and galleries. It was fairly easy to park temporarily and then shift the car to the hotel parking lot. There is a nice rooftop restaurant bar on the rooftop, but we could not take our own drinks/snacks up there. Front desk was not the friendliest.
Response from La Casa GM on Feb 9, 2024
Thank you very much for staying with us! You are allowed to take any outside items to the rooftop outside of normal services hours. I will definitely look into the not friendly as we pride ourselves on service and being super friendly

An Ok Getaway.
First and foremost I want to say that the staff here was very nice and pleasure to deal with. The wife and I just wanted to get away for a couple of days to relax and decided to stay at La Casa Del Camino. The location of this hotel is great. You can either walk or uber anywhere worth going to in the area. When booking the room the only room available was the Spanish Room at the time. The room was small but quaint. Other than just the ornate head boards and storage closet it was considered the Spanish room. People a little art can go a long way in a room like this. Our room was alined with the side street so we could hear everything going on. Let's just say it, was noisy. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The pillows had no support what so ever to them and the bed just seem very old and lumpy. They really need to check out the black friday sales going on. The wire's sticking out from the flat screen tv a bit tacky and the A/C in the room didn't work cause the outlet did not support the unit.

I checked in went to my room and immediately checked out it smelled like people had been smoking cigarettes and crack with all the windows closed my room faced the alley and there are no screens so anybody could just crawl in in the middle of the night I was partially refunded for one night out of two but I really feel I should have been fully refunded there was no way I was going to spend five minutes there let alone my birthday weekend 😕

Response from La Casa GM on Oct 30, 2023
Sincerely apologize for the issues. We do not allow smoking on property and Laguna is also nonsmoking. Unfortunately, that doesn't stop people from using the residential streets to do so away from eyes. As we are historic property with original windows that do not allow for screens but we are in the process of changing those. I am aware my team did offer different accommodations that was turned down on a higher floor and bigger room. I will take a look at your account as I do want to make things right and hope you will give us another chance.

This is a lovely place but SO LOUD. Do not stay here if hoping to sleep. I understand it’s in the bustling beach area and the location is fantastic but lordy it’s noisy. A little pricey for a tiny room but it is right on the beach! The rooftop bar/restaurant is awesome and has the best sunset view in town plus good food and drinks. Great, friendly staff too

I booked this hotel for my sister's trip to Laguna Beach.. She was visiting from England. She spent 6 nights at La Casa del Camino and thoroughly enjoyed her stay. The rooftop bar was a convenient place to get a drink and food, with a fantastic view of the beach that's just 60 yards away, and downtown Laguna Beach. The room my sister stayed in was on the 3rd floor (hotel lobby is on the 2nd floor, at street level) and had an entry "lobby" area with chairs, a table, and a bench for her suitcase. Next to that was an office area with a chair, desk and telephone. Further into the room was the bedroom which had a TV, air-conditioning unit, chest of drawers and a comfortable queen bed. The bathroom was small, but plenty big enough for one person and there was a separate room for the toilet and shower. The staff were super friendly. My sister said she would definitely stay there again and is already planning her return visit.

I read the reviews about one person saying itooked dirty. Im very picky and it was very clean. The staff was very nice. The room my husband and I got was small, but that's what we picked, not hotels fault. They gVe us a ocean view. It was perfect for my husband and I. I go to Laguna to just sit and watch the ocean to relax and find peace. I dont need anything extra fancy. The beach is my fancy. The only complaint I would have, is that you have to carry your own towels and umbrella down to the beach. For someone who is disabled there's no way I would've been able to do it without my husband being with me. Other than than everything was perfect. The roof top dining was amazing as well. Watching the sunset was breath taking. I captured the most beautiful pictures. As for noise, they have a fan you can turn on to block out the noise. I also read that in a person comments. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
