“Great Place”

Very clean, very quiet, good location. If you really need an ocean view, I recommend staying above the first floor. Pool and jacuzzi very nice...very clean.

“Ocean view and great price!”

We came to Del Mar to go to the Circus de Soliel. We spent two days at this hotel. They were doing some renovations, a signed stated in the lobby, but we didn't notice any noise or construction. Room had a view of the ocean, balcony small but had two chairs and a small table. Staff was helpful and recommend two wonderful restaurants. We were disappointed in the complimentary breakfast, but other than that it was a lovely experience. I would highly recommend this hotel, especially for the price.

“Our Pleasant Surprise in Del Mar, CA”

We were visiting the San Diego area and even though my cousin had sent me a list of San Diego hotels that were reasonable priced, I went onto Expedia and took a look for myself. The Clarion Del Mat Inn looked and sounded exactly like what I was looking for for my family's one-week stay. I booked the hotel immediately, figuring that a 15 - 20 minute drive each morning to get to what we wanted to see wouldn't be too bad. Much to our delight, the Del Mar inn was not only central to places and people we wanted to visit, but access to Rt 5 was just around the corner. It was perfect and the staff super-accomodating.

“Love this place!”

Clarion Carriage House has LOTS to recommend it, and I intend on spending a lot more time there when I can. Great people, great room. Location fab, people happy, and stay marvelous. My only suggestion is to please add no-fat yogurt and granola as selections for breakfast because the sticky sugary buns and what not don't call to me. Know, however, that there's plenty of fruit offered, which everybody eats! (or should anyway.)

“Very Good Value”

We stayed for three nights at the Del Mar during May, 2009. We were very pleasantly suprised by the cleanliness of our room and the hotel in general, the beautiful garden and pool area, and the more than adequate breakfast in a separate building, The hotel is a short walk from the restaurants, shopping and beach in Del Mar.

“much better than i'd expected”

although it could use some redecorating (which they are in the process of doing), this hotel was way better than i'd expected. we even got an ocean view room, at an unlisted rate! the room was very comfy and the hot tub is HOT. staff was very pleasant and helpful, and the wifi worked great. although there's no fitness center on-site, they gave me a free pass to a very nice local gym that was just about a 5 minute drive away. I was very pleased.

“Completely Satsified”

Great location, rooms were clean, good staff attention

“Comfortable & affordable”

The hotel is in the midst of a renovation which, of course, meant that not everything was in perfect condition in the hallway but the noise was kept well away from us. If our room had already been renovated, as I believe it to have been, then there were a few easily corrected oversights -- most notably, no hook for a robe on the back of the bathroom door. Also, the new bathroom has no bathtub and they did not think to add a shower wand -- an excellent European accommodation that most women find very helpful.

“Quiet and restful”

Just what you'd expect in Del Mar, CA -- quiet, plants and flowers everywhere, and an old character style. Continental breakfast in carriage house was nice. Hotel is a good hike from downtown shops and restaurants. Wonderful nooks and crannys to explore about the hotel.

“loved our stay in del mar”

Helpful staff found a phone # for a restaurant. Clean room.Walked to the bluffs of del mar overlooking the pacific ocean, walked to shoping. Nice breakfast searved. Free Internet access in the lobby was helpful.
