Top Carlsbad Hotel Reviews

Hyland Inn Near Legoland

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very efficient and updated. Clean, good air conditioning, and nice warm shower with good water pressure. Front desk people were very helpful. We enjoyed our stay!"

LEGOLAND California Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"First thing first about the property was the confusion of the parking. We paid to enter the parking lots in order to go to the resort but the employees were helpful and assured us that they would reimburse us. But afterwards everything was smooth with early check-in and our two young daughters loved the slide and the Lego pieces they could play with. The play area and movie area were clean and the property was very well maintained. We had dinner at the Dragon's Den and it was decent and my daughter really liked the pizza. The pool was nice and the lifeguards did great in ensuring safety and that the little ones had life jackets while swimming. Our room was nice and I loved that the kids had their own little room with bunk beds and a TV. The bed was ample and large and comfortable and the comforters as well. What we enjoyed were the amenities and to be able to access both hotels such as the restaurants, pools and activities. We were able to take our daughters to Bricks and they loved the dance area. The DJs were awesome with the music and interactions with the children. The inclusion of a breakfast buffet with your resort is a major plus because most resorts don't even offer a complimentary breakfast for the high price you pay. Everything overall was fantastic and we would recommend it to all parents especially cause the resort is very considerate of children on the Spectrum as well as asking if anyone has allergies when it came to the food."

Best Western Carlsbad by the Sea

8/10 Good

"Pros: 1. Frederick (Sp?) was THE MAN. I came in from a long delayed flight late at night and had to get up VERY early in the morning for a conference. I realized (after reading reviews AFTER booking) that the motel is close to a freeway and that rooms facing the freeway could be noisy. I'm a light sleeper and was very worried about this checking in. I asked Frederick if he could assign me a room facing away from the freeway, and he upgraded me for free so that I could get a quieter room. He went above and beyond and really made a pretty crappy evening of traveling after a long day at work so much better. Can't tell you how much I appreciated his warm welcoming demeanor and taking the extra effort to make sure I was comfortable. 2. The pool and hot tub were great to have after my long days and not very crowded at all (granted it was early October) 3. 4 mins drive from a great beach! Cons: 1. The bed was not great. 2. Sheer curtains were completely see through. The lack of privacy and the intense light from the hallway shining through the windows would have really been a problem but I was able to solve the issue by clipping the shorter side curtains together. Why not just get full blackout or at least not see through curtains? 3. The room smelled musty and the carpet felt pretty gross to walk on."
