Great location and views. Property is very nice and the rooftop patio is spectacular. Should be noted that there is no elevator so not great for lots of luggage or mobility issues.

LIKED...Bob hotel manager, killer water view on rooftop garden, close to downtown cardiff and beach, lovely recent renovation, continental breakfast, nice bed...DISLIKED ...pricey for a 3 star bed and breakfast, loud wedding party right above our room, no elevator. Would stay here again tho due to super location and convenience factor as we have family in the neighborhood.

One of my favorite hotels that I’ve stayed at! Amazing decor, excellent location, and the best rooftop in town. So happy I stayed here to celebrate my moms 60th! I can’t wait to come back, highly recommend

Beautiful Place, Amazing View, Clean, and Amazing customer service.
On our first night we couldn't get much sleep due to the crowd next door. We were hoping it would die down but it got louder into the night and didn't quiet down tell after 2:30am. The second night was much quieter.

They did an amazing job creating such a nice place. Pro: Roof top, Prosecco when we arrived, muffin & healthy juice in the morning, decoration in the room, record player, walk to beach.
However, we were sad we got 1st floor room, very dark room with only one window facing corridor. If we open the curtain, there is no privacy. So we had to close it but it’s so dark. I would suggest to add more lighting in these room.
And it had old motel type of smell even though the room is very clean. It’s pity because they did amazing job everything else to elevate your stay. Receptionist lady was super nice. Still recommend this pace but get upstairs room ;)

Woke up every morning and took a walk to the beach which is about 2 blocks. Comfy bed and beautiful room. The staff was friendly. There is a few for parking but i was able to find street parking.
4.1
Hidden gem! Clean, quiet, tastefully decorated rooms. The upper deck is awesome. Only complaint is we only stayed one night and didn't get to enjoy it enough. We'll be back!

We enjoyed our stay at the Cardiff by the Sea Lodge. The recently upgraded property is beautiful and clean. Our king bedroom had pretty decor and even though we were on the first floor near the lobby, it was quiet. The bathroom cabinetry had intricate wood carvings, the shower had decorative tile and we had nice, hot showers. We liked the comfortable bathrobes, and having a record player in the room was a nice novelty. We also liked that we could walk to the beach, restaurants and a coffee shop nearby. The best part was the rooftop area. We enjoyed beautiful views of the ocean! Also, they delivered complimentary juice and muffins to our room in the morning.

We would definitely stay here again!

Very good location three blocks walkable to the beach. Relatively quiet at night considering the location is right next to a bar and over an alleyway in back. Rooms are comfortable but minimalist only one chair with cushion in the room. Basic breakfast, two Costco muffins and watermelon juice. Staff was available but not friendly did not greet you first did not ask how things were going, were not able to offer suggestions for restaurants ornearby activities. Housekeeping staff Adriana was very helpful

I’ve stayed in many hotels in the Del Mar to Encinitas stretch of coast and this was the best! From the smiling welcome, the complimentary Prosecco, the large, newly decorated lovely room and all the other nice touches, this was an outstanding stay. Great location too. Will definitely return.
4.1
The location can’t be beat. One block to the ocean, and the rooms are very clean and decorated beautifully. Breakfast includes a muffin and juice each morning, which can be enjoyed on the most beautiful rooftop deck overlooking the ocean.

Great view of the beach, nice roof top. Anthony was very friendly and provided
Excellent customer service. I would definitely come back here and recommend family and friends.

The rooms are beautiful along with excellent customer service. Quick walk to the beach lots of restaurants nearby.

Just be aware “Ocean View” is a loose term. I was on the 1st floor with a roof top view with the ocean in the distance. Ask for upper floor for less roof more ocean.

Room was awesome and the staff very friendly
Walking distance to ocean and local restaurants and bars

The receptionist Kayla was super nice!
Great location!
Love the new remodel!
4.1
The place is very cute, rooms are roomy with very stylish furniture and comfortable bed. The staff is super friendly and helpful from the front desk attendant to the cleaning staff everyone was very nice. The place feels very personable. I have to say the front desk is located in a room surrounded by big windows with excellent view of the ocean, great coffee maker that grinds the coffee beans and a comfy seating area where you can enjoy your coffee and breakfasts which consists of a natural juice (amazing choices loved the green and the carrot turmeric one) and a muffin. Loved the place dream of coming back ❤️
4.1
Such a hidden gem! Room is clean and feels brand new. Rooftop alone makes the stay worth the price. The sunset was fantastic and so was the service!
4.1
I had a wonderful stay at Cardiff by the Sea Lodge. The rooftop is incredible with a lot of seating options and the view can’t be beat. I loved the extra touches like a record player in the room and vinyl to borrow at the front desk. The newly remodeled rooms are very nice, stylish and comfortable. I appreciated the fresh juice options with a muffin in the morning and unlimited coffee/tea in the lobby. All in all, I hope to return again sometime soon!
4.1
This is the BEST hotel I’ve ever stayed at in the USA. I love small and intimate properties and Cardiff Lodge checks all my boxes. The rooms are stunning and the rooftop is the unexpected and glorious surprise. Loved getting fresh ginger juice in the morning. Caila and Anthony are wonderful.
4.1
The rooftop deck was a fantastic place to watch the sunset. Without firepits or heaters, it was a little chilly, but it was beautiful. The room was wonderful, and the staff members were friendly and helpful.
4.1
Our stay was very much tainted by the noisy gate that was directly below our room. Every time someone came in and out of the gate we could hear a horrible noise. We asked to move to another room. This new room was located over the “Shanty” which is a restaurant/bar for the local area. It was also noisy because of the music playing until at least midnight.
Our first room was also disappointing as the shower did not drain. For some reason the tv wasn’t working either.
We were booked for two nights ,but we didn’t stay mostly because of the noises.

Property listed as 330 S Cedros Solana Beach CA…..It’s an office building . I called to inform of late check in, but desk clerk said she was leaving at 10 pm. Left instructions how to get key from “cubby" but we could open locked gate. Met a person in parking garage who said she didn’t know of any hotel. We had to call front desk who NEVER answered or returned my call. End result, had to rent another room for the night.
4.1
Great location. Beautiful sunsets and bright and cheery rooms. Very clean.
4.1
The Cardiff by the Sea is a great place to stay across the board, from the great room, to the awesome rooftop to the breakfast delivery in the morning! I’ll be back!
4.1
We had the best experience- it was such a lovely place and the location and views were unbelievable!!!
4.1
Newly renovated lodge, confortable, great coffee and close the ocean. A return visit is on the cards!
4.1
Staff was very kind. The property is in a great location, and the rooms are nice enough. My only drawback comment would be if you get a room with the courtyard access it could be noisy just because people move in front of your unit not the quietest place.
