La Valencia Hotel – A Beautiful Ending to Our Pacific Coast Adventure! 🌴🌊 What a wonderful way to conclude our two-week journey down the Pacific Coast! La Valencia is a beautiful, iconic hotel in the heart of La Jolla, filled with old-world charm, elegance, and Mediterranean character. The ocean views and gorgeous surroundings make it a truly special place to experience. There’s something magical about the atmosphere here. It’s romantic, inviting, and full of California coastal charm. The location is wonderful for exploring La Jolla, enjoying the scenery, and simply slowing down to appreciate the beauty of the coastline. After traveling from Washington through Oregon and California, La Valencia was a memorable final stop on our bucket-list adventure. A lovely way to say goodbye to California! ❤️

We absolutely loved our stay! The hotel is charming, beautifully maintained, and the rooms are updated while still keeping the property’s character. The location couldn’t have been better—we were able to easily walk to La Jolla Cove, great restaurants, and all the shops. Every staff member was friendly, welcoming, and helpful, making our stay so enjoyable. This is the perfect place for families, couples, or solo travelers. This was one of our favorite hotels, and we would absolutely stay here again. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting La Jolla!

The staff of the hotel was absolutely top notch. Great location. Being a historic hotel you get the good and bad of that. Great location, great aesthetic, along with small rooms and other issues that come with older buildings. Worth the stay for a weekend in La Jolla.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Great location and historic hotel. No air conditioning in the hotel, only in the rooms. Poor amenities. No slippers provided, rooms are very basic. There are no ice buckets, glasses, etc. The hotel is not kept up, looks tired and run-down. The staff were not very friendly or helpful other than the valets. The food at the restaurant was horrible!!!!! Wilted greens for garnish were sad, just leave them off. The steak was way overcooked, the baked potato cruchy, no taste in the food, one of the worst restaurant meals I have had. One small elevator, and it needs to be said again, NO AIR CONDITIONING in the hotel other than the rooms. Would not go back.
