Great location and service but the age of the place shows. Small bathroom in the tower & the fan never worked. We told them but no fix. Pool area is small. Great views in ocean view rooms. Bellmen were very helpful

Beautiful historic yet updated rooms in the middle of La Jolla. Guest services all top notch during our stay: Check in with Giulianna, reservations made through concierge Ana, our bellhop Christian and Cindy with housekeeping…all above and beyond. Daily pool lunch and drinks with Mike taking great care of us. The sunset views from the bar lounge can’t be beat. It was my 2nd time staying here and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

The hotel lobby and property are lovely, and the location is fantastic. However, the vintage rooms are quite small and basic. Our ocean view room (#1015) featured a Juliet balcony (a $50/night upcharge), but to actually see the ocean, you had to step outside; otherwise, you’re left staring at the roof and an industrial air conditioning unit from the bed. The pool is small, and due to the high number of guests, lounge chairs got reserved by zealous families eager to stake their claims seemingly at dawn. A delightful surprise was the opportunity to feed the numerous seagulls that frequent the roof—perhaps the hotel should be renamed "The Jonathan" in their honor. Ultimately, while the location is a standout feature, the overall experience doesn't quite justify the price.

Only one caveat, ocean room was a truncated side view as opposed to full panoramic. Otherwise incredibly friendly and helpful staff, free transportation within a mile and great bar and restaurant.

Advanced arrangements made with the property for 60th birthday + 30th anniversary + visiting 1st grandchild + iPrefer all in one visit yielded…nothing. Nothing any guest with no special events couldn’t get. Wasn’t expecting anything but still surprised they did nothing. The property is comfortable but ridiculously overpriced-ocean view, etc. all considered. Service was generally friendly, though we did walk out of the Sala room after being ignored for 30 minutes. Won’t return.

From the time you pull up to the property the staff is doing everything they can to make sure you have the most unbelievable experience. Greeted by valet, bag check, seamless check in, complimentary champagne, your vacation begins the moment you step onto the meticulously kept timeless property.

Amazing views and very relaxing atmosphere. However, we had an issue related to AC not functioning in the room the first night and needed to be fixed which they have addressed later. The other thing, you have to ask for everything you normally expect in a hotel and that includes small fridge/cooler etc..

The Valencia is one of a dying breed of hotels with class and elegance. It’s like stepping back in time to an age long gone by. Having said this, our room had all the consciences we expect in a modern hotel. Our room was spacious and well appointed. The bathroom was also newly updated. We especially enjoyed our time around the beautiful pool. Finally, the location of the Valencia allowed us to park our car for our whole stay. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to in La Jolla

The room was outdated. An AC unit from last century (loud and with a defective thermostats) that made for a hot room and poor sleep. Lighting in the room was terrible. Just the nightstand lamp with a very white lightbulb. Some of the USB ports were not operational. The bathroom door was droopy and very hard to close leaving light from outside to seep into the room. The windows were facing a wall (zero view). Would be ok for a $150-$200 hotel but this was a $700 room!

Our stay at La Valencia was amazing. The staff was so accomodating and every request was met with a prompt and cheerful response. Only negative was the TV's didn't work when we arrived and we had to get maintenance to come and fix them. The plumbing (toilet) is a bit stodgy but probably due to the age of the building. I would have positioned the second TV for straight on viewing from the bed. It was directly to one side. These are all small things and I would give the hotel a 9 out of 10. We would certainly come back.

So happy I stayed at La Valencia, the staff was very accommodating, the hotel is beautiful and room was sparkling clean. It is perfectly situated to explore the beach, cliffs, sea lions and seals as well as to explore the shopping and restaurants. I would stay here every time I visit La Jolla.

One of my favorite hotels in California. Terrific location on a bluff overlooking the ocean, yet smack dab in the center of La Jolla, a charming beach town. You can walk to lots of delightful cafes, restaurants and shops. The hotel is 100 years old (rare for California...) and the lobby boasts a certain old-fashioned ambience - yet the rooms are elegant and contemporary in style. Staff are top notch in every way. My favorite feature was having a partial view of the ocean and being able to hear the sounds of the surf and the seagulls - despite having one of the cheaper rooms on offer. Dislikes: poor internet reception. But I'd return in a heartbeat...
