    Sunset with pool view
    Neeta M.

    What a beautiful property! Seems a little old but well maintained. I came for a conference- wifi worked well. The staff was hit and miss. Some people that might have been around for a while didn't seem to have the warmth. The food was good. Some of the staff talked and made me feel at home. The sunset and views - glorious! The parking lot was smelling a little. Clean and large rooms.

    The room was fine, roomy, okay view, but I was not happy with Lilly's service. Lilly who checked me in told me to go the wrong way to the parking garage and the wrong way to my room. I even asked her twice on each to confirm where she was directing me. She pointed to her left down the hallway and said that was the way to the elevators. She didn't tell me that there were TWO sets of elevators and the ones she sent me to was the exact opposite direction that didn't have my room # listed at all. I went up to the 4th floor anyway to give it a try and the maids said I had to go down to the lobby and take the elevators on the north side instead. Before that, Lilly had me waiting in the Honors line for a long time. I was waiting so long that the other lady at the front desk (very professional taller lady, looked maybe Asian) had to tell Lilly to help me bc I had been waiting there. When Lilly realized she left me hanging there she didn't apologize or anything and just decided to have a casual conversation with a co-worker before acknowledging my turn after I'm already standing in front of her . She also took such a long time on my reservation and tried to charge me full price and taxes and incidentals and $47 parking for an already billed out room. Oh which she didn't apologize for that either when I pointed it out to her and just said: "I see what you're saying". She didn't thank me for being a Diamond Member. She didn't tell me waters were in the room. I went to the shop and asked if waters were in the room and she said I didn't know so I bought drinks and snacks in case. Ludivina C charged me $49.78 for it and said she couldn't give me an itemized receipt when I asked bc she "already closed it out." I literally turned right around and asked for the receipt almost immediately after my purchase. The room is fine. It is roomy and the view is decent. It's NOT of the golf course. I'm a golfer staying on a golf course and a Diamond member but no view of it. Not happy she didn't even apologize for sending me the wrong way to my room just claiming she didn't know my rook wasn't that way.

    Nice lower foyer/salon area for conference/event space
    Taura G.

    We attended a reception here last night for a professional business conference mixer. The setup was in a downstairs foyer area with a patio and views of the water. It was a wonderful setup. The event had an open bar with beer or wine choices and well made Hor D'ourves. Some included: Fresh Shrimp Spring Rolls, Tempura Shrimp, Beef Wellington minis, 2 charcuterie boards, and about 3 other delicious choices. The evening was a quick 1.5 hour mixer and it was great. The restrooms were very well cleaned and maintained. I went upstairs to sit in the lobby at the end of the event. Because it was at night, I could not see the view of the ocean nor cliffs, but I was able to see the pool at night. My only advice to Hilton is that this place needs some updating/sprucing up. I know that it is a couple of weeks after The Farmers Open, but it's time to make some moves before the Spring Break families and singles come to stay.

    I stayed here one night bc it was convenient, and I am a Hilton Diamond member. There were positives and negatives, but the negatives were too much for me to give more than 3 Stars. Positives: Excellent customer service. Fabiana checked me in and I was thankful my room was ready early. She upgraded my room, asked me whether I wanted points or a food & beverage credit, gave me two waters and two drink tix. Contrast the foregoing warm welcome vs my negative stay at the Conrad at Resorts World in Vegas (also a Hilton property): I received none of the foregoing at the Conrad, although I am entitled to all of them; Big room; Located adjacent to Torrey Pines golf course; Negatives: Issues w/ the gym. First of all, this is a big property, but the gym is tiny for a place that charges a $36 resort fee. Secondarily, my room key wouldn't open the gym door. No one inside seemed willing to help, so I walked upstairs to get a new key. However, the new key didn't work either. I banged on the door the second time, and got someone's attention. There was one bench and someone was using it. So I started to adapt the one weight machine for chest workout. Then some guy says he was using that machine: Last time I saw you, you were on the phone. Then he says he was on the phone for 30 sec (more like 2 min+). I hate people w/ shitty gym etiquette, esp when the space is limited. The guy on the bench wasn't much better. He hogged the bench for at least 30 min; Other negatives: $47/night self-parking fee; Dated decor; Most rooms are far from the elevators due to the odd design of the hotel; Although having a decent gym is important to me when traveling, I would stay here again despite the shitty gym and rude guests. I'll try to stay here the next time I play Torrey Pines Golf Course.

The room is really nice and it's spacious, but the bed is so uncomfortable that I woke up with a backache and neck ache. The parking is also super weird. They have a 3 story parking garage, but the way you enter is also the way you exit, so if you park on the 3rd floor and you're trying to drive out, there could be someone driving in and you guys are stuck staring at each other on who should move. Next, the parking structure has no elevator so you have to take the stairs down or up. That's never an issue, but I start thinking of my 81yr old mom and if she was with us then how would she be able to climb up or down. Also, the room I stayed at room 812 the toilet is super far from the toilet paper wall thing that holds the toilet paper. Unless you're Mr. Fantastic then I'm sure you have to get up and walk over to wipe your butt. I've never seen anything like that at any hotels or motels we have ever stayed at, so this was a bit weird to me. I didn't get to eat their "continental breakfast" because I was still getting ready, but my husband and my youngest son went to check it out. They said it was okay, the buffet was mediocre and the sausage didn't have color and it looked boiled. They both said the best food they cooked was the potatoes. They grabbed me a coffee and that was good, it was brewed fresh. They had cereal and pastries and some other items. Anyway, this is a very nice hotel, just a few things to look out for if you're gonna stay here. One cool thing is they gave us a $20 credit to use on our first day, we didn't need anything so we just got some bottled drinks in case we wanted it later or the next day.

That being said, the best hotel I've stayed at in a long time and spend about 75-100 nights a year in hotels. First off, this hotel seems to be well managed and upkept. My biggest complaint with similar hotels is the lack of maintenance and cleaning in the rooms (mildew/mold on grout) and sub par housekeeping. This came with a very clean room. I know many say its a dated hotel but the only thing dated in the common hallways... and the 90s vibe is kinda fun. The executive lounge here beats any Marriott in the area! Good food, complimentary drinks and super friendly staff. There are several buildings rather than one large one, which made it nice to be able to park close to your room. Hot tub was nice and clean. The pool towels are dispensed via your room key with a warning there is a tracker and $20 feet if you don't return it. I really don't think there are trackers in the towel, but I returned it to the correct location none less, which I am sure is the intent. All staff I encounter were great - especially in the executive lounge!

She was there for almost an hour roaming around acting like she owns the place. We were the last table in there with two toddlers. Around 6 all other tables had left, my child spilled a cup of tea and almost burned himself. The employee was helping cleaning up the floor, all of the sudden Shaula became very aggressive asking why the employee is cleaning the floor. They had some back and forth I thought oh maybe they're relatives or friends. Didn't say anything. All of sudden this lady became hostile while walking past me and said "people should control their kids in public" "don't let your child throw everything on the floor, control them". I said excuse me? Then the yelling started. I asked her to be respectful then she started trash talking the kids. Big mistake. She probably thinks we don't speak English or we're deaf. When I talked to your club lounge employee and front desk employee they didn't seem surprised about what she did. I'm not the first one who complained about her. Do something before ruining another family's trip.

I think there was popcorn ceiling and very textured walls. The spaces are big and very roomy for two people and would work well for 4 people. This property has some two-story units with loft via A-frame top floors. Dad's room had a wood burning fireplace. This property is large. Rooms have a sofa bed, big TV, King bed, full kitchen, two bar chairs and table off kitchen, desk. The counter in the bath is big for storing all your toiletries. The toilet is tiny and "old skool" shortie McGhee vs. chair-height. And this space is tight with the shower. The pillows are not the best for neck support, but I have seen worse in hotels. The TP is good enough and at least not transparent. The included breakfast is "too legit to quit". Nice oatmeal with a ton of quality options for additions. All the usual suspects and bacon, quality eggs, fruit, yogurt etc. The horseshoe shaped dining space is very large which is needed for such a large property. There is a semi-busy road above the property, but we were located just beneath it and had no road noise, and I am not a sound sleeper. I would definitely ask for a top floor unit if you want less noise. My dad had a family with 3 young kids above him. Fortunately, there gazelle running was for a nominal duration. Plus, with his mobility 1st floor was the only option. STAFF are very friendly and helpful.

They need to shut this down and remodel everything! And clean and paint these damn buildings. Have you ever heard of $10 per out if you check in before 5 o'clock? Well they do that here! Have you ever seen a street basketball goal at a hotel? Well it's one here that looks like it was here when they bought the apartments. Lol. Oh and don't get dropped off by your uber when checking in because you might get room in the back and have to walk your luggage down the street to your building lol. This place is horrible.

At first glance, the property is stunning. The room decor is charming, the staff was very nice, and we had a great meal at Mustangs & Burros (the Brussels sprouts were delicious). ​However, once we settled in, the lack of attention to detail became impossible to ignore--especially since I was staying with a broken ankle. ​The room cleanliness was disappointing for this price point. I found hair and grime on the coffee maker tray, hair on the floor tiles, and air vents covered in thick dust. The bathroom walls even had visible stains that hadn't been wiped down. The carpet was dirty when I got there. For a 4 star hotel I expected more. ​On top of that, maintenance issues made the stay difficult. The ice maker was broken , and the outdoor lighting at the exit and on the pathways around the property wasn't working. Navigating the property in the dark with crutches was very tricky, and seeing rusty screws sticking up out of the deck felt like a genuine safety oversight. ​It's a shame because the atmosphere is great, but the housekeeping and maintenance really need to step it up.

    Review of La Valencia Hotel…read more I purchased a day pass here as someone who works in the hospitality industry and is always curious to experience new properties from a guest perspective--and La Valencia absolutely delivered. I arrived pretty early in the morning (optimistically expecting sunshine), but even with the typical coastal overcast, it didn't take away from the experience at all. In fact, I somehow ended up with the pool almost entirely to myself--in the middle of August, which felt like a hidden luxury. The setting is just beautiful. The views, the calm atmosphere, and the overall sense of escape made it easy to settle in and relax. I spent about five hours there and never felt rushed or overlooked. The staff, especially at the cabana bar, were fantastic--attentive, respectful, and genuinely pleasant to interact with. I ordered food and drinks throughout the day, and everything added to the ease and enjoyment of the experience. The only small downside is parking, which can be a bit tricky--but that's pretty standard for La Jolla. Overall, this was an incredible day experience and absolutely worth it.

The bridal suite was a fantastic space for the girls to get ready, made even better by the mimosas and treats the staff brought up. The team also went above and beyond for our family, even using the hotel golf carts to shuttle the grandparents to nearby restaurants so they wouldn't have to walk far. The food at the wedding was top-notch, with many guests raving about the meal. I was impressed with the number of wait staff who made sure the evening went smoothly. Overall, it was an incredible event, and we highly recommend La Valencia hotel.
