We were in room 130 which I highly recommend. The balcony has a partial ocean view and is out further than the nearby rooms so you can see easily. The patio is perfect with two chairs and lots of space. The restaurant has very good food and we ate outside with heaters at night. We were able to make a same day reservation for 7 people. Great hotel! Chairs, umbrella and towels on the beach were great! They even had transportation to nearby restaurants.

This place was wonderful and quiet! There were lots of kids but well managed and respected rules. Easy access to the beach and market. Loved our patio view of the beach where we could sit and watch the sunset. Staff was wonderful, courteous and attentive. Can't wait to go back.

They have hidden charges that they won't disclose to you and would later charge your card without any prior heads up, so beware!

Excellent location - right on the beach. Only negative was the cost of parking- $42/night. It should have been in the property information.

This is our second time staying at this property. Having a kitchenette is convenient. The grounds are nicely kept. Although the rooms are clean they need updating. Staff is friendly and helpful. There are gas fire pits in the courtyard for the guest to use. Restaurants are within walking distance. There is also a market close by. The hotel is overpriced but you are paying for the location. I would recommend the hotel and definitely would stay here again.

Pricey and not sure why it is a resort. Seemed like a regular hotel to me. No spa, no extras in the room besides the bathrobe. Was great to have a patio but the wooden poles were a huge obstruction. Wish happy hour was from 3-6 instead of 2-5. They sent texts saying there would be live entertainment at brunch but that has ceased two years ago. If I hadn’t had a training there I believe we could have found better place to stay for the money we paid

This is a lovely hotel in an excellent location. We loved the architecture and listening to the waves crash. It could use a little bit of updating but all in all we loved it and would stay again.

LaJolla Shores Hotel is a gem. We’ve been coming here for years and it never disappoints. The staff is always friendly and courteous. It has a real family feel to it. Wonderful place right on the beach. I give it 5 stars and will always recommend it. Special thanks to the amazing people who work at LaJolla Shores.

The location is the reason for staying. The staff was helpful and pleasant. On the downside, the property is dated, and needs a face lift. The shuttle service left us stranded at the Marine Room. The front desk clerk did compensate us for the inconvenience.

You are staying here if you want a convenient hotel to the beach and the little neighborhood surf shops, bars, and restaurants. If you are looking for a fancy resort with a spa and fancy pool, this isn’t for you.
