Outstanding accommodations, staff, customer service, food, and although it is expensive… It exceeded our expectations and made my daughter's 50th birthday celebration a memorable occasion! It may be the finest hotel that we have stayed at over the years and we really appreciate the service that we received. Thank you.

Nothing!

Great hotel. Everything done so well.

Nobody cleaned our room. Disappointing when we pay that much per night.

Location is nice, it wasn't too far from downtown or La Jolla. It's a nice getaway from everything. Property is beautiful and the architecture of the hotel is really nice.

Rooms are all identical, I would not pay extra for an upgraded room as upgraded rooms have 10 sq ft extra on the balcony only. Not worth upgrading. Food at the property is absolutely disgusting (I promise I'm not picky), who messes up guac??

This is a stunning hotel. We live nearby and go there often for lunch, but have never stayed in the hotel. It is beautifully appointed and elegant. The pool was somewhat overcrowded, but it was the 4th of July, so it was to be expected.

It took awhile to figure out the layout and find the pool and our room.
