Top Carlsbad Water Park Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was extremely helpful however while we are in our room, it did not appear that the carpet was vacuumed. That was the only thing with the cleanliness. Other than that everything was great. Our air conditioner was being weird and the front desk girl came up immediately to help us remedy the problem."

4-bedroom 2 Bath house in Carlsbad NM. Close to Lake Carlsbad Park area.

10/10 Excellent

"The house was clean & a nice place to stay! Location is good… we enjoyed being so close to the Pecos River!"

Hampton Inn & Suites Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff was very friendly and accommodating. We had to leave a night early due to a family issue and the management was willing to cancel without penalty. The building was nice and our room was clean. However it was undergoing construction, which is the only reason I gave it a four on overall appearance. I would definitely recommend this location."

Comfort Suites Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"our room was so clean and comfortable. we loved the pool and hot tub plus breakfast was yummy. the coffee they made was delicious ! overall, such a perfect place to stay. other than that, we had some issues with our room keys not unlocking the door, but teri and mark helped right away to fix the problem. they were super attentive and professional thank you so much for taking care of us teri and mark !"

Fiddler's Inn

8/10 Good

"Easy to get to and catty-corner from an Albertson's so if you need snacks or supplies you can walk to it. Main concern was that the front was not well-lighted: hard to find after dark as it's in a residential area and the neighboring properties look the same. Also, there was no porch light so you had a hard time punching in your keycode numbers. We stayed in the 2-room suite (the Orange Blossom), which had a big bed in each but the room that doubled as the front didn't have a good lounge area in the front part - it could have used a couple of comfy chairs or a loveseat. The breakfast is a cafe a couple of doors down and you get an $18 voucher, which pretty much covers a coffee and a treat for two people. No complaints about that! The backyard cat was preoccupied with a dead bird so he didn't greet us. I cannot fault the humans for this. All in all a very nice place that could use just a little more to push it over the top, but well worth your visit."

Post Time Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The only issue was we lost power due to the weather and it lasted nearly 7 hours."

The Bird- Lovely 2 Bed Home in the Garden, Great Location

10/10 Excellent

"Great for Cavern City ren faire proximity."

The Jalapeño- Historic Adobe Home in Walkable Area

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay. Exactly what we expected. Very clean and comfortable."

Delightful 2-bedroom house with AC in sunny Carlsbad and river view.

8/10 Good

"The rooms were clean, host was extremely helpful. The only recommendation would be to have a list with information about Wi-Fi passwords, and contact details. Since this place is pet friendly, I'd recommend securing the fence (bottom) to prevent pets from leaving the property."
