They called it a villa and it was $1000 a night it’s really just a room on a very noisy road across from very noisy park - the rooms are tired and older The staff is very nice, but it is so not worth the price. Also, the bed was very uncomfortable. For the prices you pay I would not go back

Such a great hotel, will be back!

Great staff, clean room. Nice amenities and vibe!

5.0 / 10.0

The staff was amazing from start to finish. The front desk assisted us with a room upgrade, and the valet even gave us a ride on their golf cart so we could make our dinner reservation on time. We ordered room service for breakfast the night before, and it arrived right on schedule the next morning. The room itself was great and very comfortable. The only thing I would suggest improving is the toilet fixtures—the handle felt more like something you’d find in a public restroom or bar, which seemed a bit out of place for a luxury resort.

beautiful views, thoughtful lounge area, nice touches in the room, friendly staff and valet, simple and elegant, a lovely getaway!

Internet was unreliable

3.0 / 10.0

The staff was excellent, the food and bar service were wonderful as well as the location. The hotel is an old and historical, and drastically needs renovations. It needs a Four Seasons or a St Regis to come in and really overhaul the entire structure and bring out its true beauty. Beds were so so

Tiny and terrible room and bathroom. Old smelly bathroom and no walking space between the bed and the dresser. Not worth the price whatsoever. Hotel needs to be completely remodeled. Would not recommend.

8.0 / 10.0

Hotel was very nice but way overpriced. Parking was a nightmare in the tight neighborhood, but valet was good.

3.0 / 10.0

Shame on Hotels.com for posting a picture of a Classic Junior Suite that was nothing at all like the room we were offered. Not good. No view. No balcony. The guy at the front desk finally found us an upgraded villa room that was nice. Finally got into the villa at 5. Lost an hour to refresh before dinner. The stay was pleasant, but the false advertising by Hotels.com is not at all good!!

A++. La Valencia is one of our very favorite hotels.

Loved the pool. We had a problem with our room which required us to switch. That was frustrating because it seems the staff knew that room was a problem. Otherwise we love the hotel, location and pool area. Staff is great.

Will absolutely be back!

We were excited about staying at LaValencia based on previous experience with historic luxury resort hotels. However… The staff was particularly rude from the reception to check out. One particular example—my husband asked what kind of bagel was provided on the lox plate and the waiter said Everything, like it says in the menu. Plus, it was a very bad bagel Next, the bathroom could not have been any smaller its door had peeling paint Be forewarned that it is a wedding factory and the events take over everything, especially the pool, where there was no space in the pool and certainly no place to sit

8.0 / 10.0

A wonderful hotel. Love the history. Staff were great, food was delicious. However, the pool plaster is worn and the water line tile is missing. The shower in the room had mold.

A curate's egg. Grand famous hotel perfectly

6.0 / 10.0

The property is nearly 100 yrs old. So”as new” isn’t expected. But the room was very tired, and dinged up, AC worked poorly and there was a definite mildew smell. The above ground floors 7+ are better. We had stayed here about 10 years ago. The location is very convenient to La Jolla; the staff was helpful with occasional shuttle transportation and the Concierge was wonderful to work with. The restaurants are convenient but the quality is inferior to the costs.

Hotel was beautiful and quiet. Our stay was great and the robes are amazing.

4.0 / 10.0

There is lots of beauty and style in this hotel: we love the general vibe, architecture and the staff is awesome. However, the sleep was a challenge-despite our request of getting a quiet room. The first room was away from any elevator or party noise, but because it felt like an attic-had incredible noise at night from all the birds sitting on the roof. The second room was just over the bar so the boomy base sounds were shaking the walls throughs the day. No hope for a nap after the first sleepless night. The AC units in rooms are extremely loud when they turn on and off: it is like you basically have to wake up every time they start. So-bring your "ear protection" (not the ear plugs-but some serious ear protection) and you will be fine. For those who are not sensitive to noise-it is an awesome hotel. Just don't get your hopes too high when it comes to sleep and rest. Or maybe there is some quiet room somewhere still?

Beautiful hotel with great service.

4.0 / 10.0

This property needs a major facelift. I paid $800+ for a last minute weekend reservation and was first given a room that smelled strongly of mildew. I went up and switched rooms and then was given a room where the AC didn’t work and the toilet would barely flush. Didn’t discover all this until the middle of the night as I arrived late and went right to bed. The room was 74 degrees all night leading to a subpar night of sleep. I am done giving this hotel chances.

For the cost (high), the rooms in the tower are small. We won't stay there again. But, the valets were excellent.

The bed was awful. I woke with a backache. I was almost falling off because the mattress was worn out. The room was expensive and cramped.

10.0 / 10.0

This is a beautiful hotel in an incredible location. The age of the hotel shows in its room sizes and various fixtures. But that is part of the charm. The coffee maker in the room - single cup Keurig machine - should be replaced. It was flaky and making morning coffee was a frustrating experience.

10.0 / 10.0

You can’t beat the location and history of this property. It is historic. Rooms are small but well appointed.

2.0 / 10.0

We paid $800/night for this dump. The hotel had a wedding right below our window that went until midnight and the noise from the cleanup went until 4am. (There were noise machines provided in the rooms, so it is obviously not a new complaint. The mattress and bedding were cheap and uncomfortable. We got almost no sleep at all. The stay was so bad, we left halfway through the weekend to just go home. Sent them an email to describe my complaints, and they never responded. I've never written a bad review about anything online.

The only great thing is the location. It’s not a hotel that it used to be. Very loud at night, parties wouldn’t stop till almost midnight. Amenities are old and outdated. Location was great though for our purposes

Very nice

8.0 / 10.0

Gorgeous, old world charm. Closest you can get to European feeling in the US. Note the building is old so noticed a musty smell in the room and the elevator is old and tiny. Beds were comfortable, and pool area is heavenly. Staff and service were 5-star. Dining was overpriced but the views were lovely. Would absolutely stay again.
