Great Hotel
Wonderful hotel and hotel staff. The hotel is located on the ocean and the view from the room was fabulous. The room and the hotel were very clean and have a tuscany atmosphere. The resturant food for breakfast was tasty and priced well. Everyone - hotel staff- were extremely friendly and helpful. The neighbor is very artsy and lots of resturants and specialty shops. I plan to stay at this hotel again when in the La Jolla area.

Great weekend stay in a Great town
Could not have asked for more from the valet to the front desk to the restaurant staff. Rooms are a bit old as with all hotels this age and a bit small. The location is ideal for all excursions in and around San Diego. Great happy hour on the deck overlooking the Pacific. Valet will add 29.00 to your daily charges. If you are looking for an upscale hotel in the center of La Jolla i would highly recomend

You get what you pay for
This stay was an extension of a business trip to San Diego. We stayed for 2 days at the Del Coronado and then traveled to LaJolla for 2 days. The rooms are very nice and very small. Our bell hop was able to move us to a room over looking the garden but it was across from the ice machine and the door to the elevator. This is an old place and try as they may, unless you are into quaint don't stay here. The staff was helpful and the hotel was clean but, unless you pay the higher room rate, you will get no view and a postage stamp size room. This place was probably the place to stay 25 years ago.

Great historic hotel
If you like historic hotels, and I do, the La Valencia is a real gem. Stacked against a hillside overlooking La Jolla Cove and adjacent to dozens of shops and restaurants, the hotel is perfect for a weekend get away. The rooms are small, as you would expect in a historic hotel, but well appointed and clean. The staff is attentive and helpful and the views from various locations in the hotel are wonderful.

Promotions?
The hotel was great, but when I signed up to stay there, the promotion items included, "free valet service and a bottle of wine". The valet service was free, but the bottle of wine was not included. I questioned the staff about this and they were completely stunned by the claim. I allowed it to be dismissed because the price was so low, and the value of the stay was so high. This is a must pick hotel to stay in if you can get the room price for $185/night or less.

Dining tip:
Short walk from hotel
The Living Room Coffee Shop is a staple of San Diego and there is one located about 200 yds from the hotel. They have great service, food, drinks, and as important as anything in La Jolla, a water view of the ocean from on top of the cove.
