Top La Jolla Recreation Center Hotel Reviews

The Shoal La Jolla Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Alfred at check in was extremely helpful and was able to check us in early. Alice was very pleasant at checkout and reached out after we left. The housekeeper found a blanket we left behind and they immediately contacted us. Fortunately for us we were still in the area and we retrieved item. The property is a very short 5 minute walk to the beach. Amazing views of the waves crashing on shore as Hurricane Polo was churning down south. Will visit again in the future!"

La Jolla Shores Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was fine…a bit dated. Location is amazing but it could use some updating."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites La Jolla – Windansea Beach by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"He's the second time we've been there and we liked it. The location is not far from the beach. The room is kind of spacy and the breakfast is good too."

Inn By The Sea La Jolla

10/10 Excellent

"Great service and the rooms are super clean, Central location and close to the beach."

Empress Hotel of La Jolla

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast window is too short and wish they add more fruits. Also food choices are not always good even the bread."

Pantai Inn

8/10 Good

"Location, location, location. We had a few hiccups when we checked in but the manager took care of it. Its an old place but its kept up fairly well. They provide free waters and soda and a different pitcher of infused water each day. Delicious! Breakfast is include. Pretty basic but all you really need. Would definitely stay again."

La Jolla Cove Suites

8/10 Good

"The hotel was beautiful and the location was fantastic. However, half the building is under construction and it begins at 7 AM on weekdays (equipment and supplies will start to be delivered earlier then that as well). we wanted the ocean view so we were at the front of the building so it was constantly loud. Of the 4 nights we stayed, 3 nights had weddings on the roof that went till 10, but that didn't stop the wedding party from continuing. If you're looking for something more relaxing this probably isn't the place but if you want to be right on the water and walkable to everything in La Jolla this is perfect!"

Cormorant Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"The front desk staff was very accommodating from check in to storing my bags. They are quite militant and strict about checking out right on time. The food servers use the same stairway as the guests so be sure to peak around the corners for plates of appetizers or entrees coming up the stairs. The location was perfect for the event that I was attending as well as the proximity to the beach, park, shops and restaurants."

Hotel La Jolla, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly and helpful staff!"
