Top Carlsbad State Beach Hotel Reviews

Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort

Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort

8/10 Good
"The hotel had a perfect location, and the friendly and helpful staff made a great impression on us. We arrived before the official check-in time and were planning to check in first, rent some beach equipment, and spend some time at the beach while waiting for our room to be ready. However, the staff kindly let us know that our room was already available and even accommodated us with an early check-in, which we really appreciated. We had a wonderful time at the beach, enjoyed the live music, and spent a relaxing evening by the pool. There were also plenty of restaurants within walking distance, and it was nice to be able to walk around, have dinner, and enjoy a drink. The main downside was that the hotel clearly felt quite old, and the biggest disappointment was the musty smell in our room. We suspect it may have been coming from the air conditioning unit. That said, although the room itself was dated, it was clean enough, and the bedding was clean and comfortable. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, especially because of the excellent location and wonderful staff."

10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I had a great 3 night stay at the end of a 2 week roadtrip. The king bed was very comfortable & the room was clean and beautiful. We were on the 2nd floor and we could see the ocean from our window & balcony even though we didn't request an ocean view! The kitchen was a bonus with a full fridge, oven, stove and coffee maker. (Note: there was no microwave in the room). We enjoyed the coffee in the office and the snack and juice options. The beach chairs, umbrella and towels are a great benefit for enjoying the beach. We didn't use our car at all during our stay as everything is close & very walkable. Parking can be difficult with only a few parking spaces in the resort. Parking on the street was not too bad even on the weekend, it just takes a little patience. We will definitely be back!"

"I had to park on the street which was unexpected. It saved me $20 for overnight parking onsite but we had to walk a bit to the car. Would have been nice to have had a choice. No fan in the bathroom shower so it was humid even with the small top window fully open. Consider installing one."
