This is a great hotel. I live in the area so I've never stayed there, but friends have and say it's great, and I have snuck into their pool multiple times, and have to agree. The location is great, both next to the beach and plenty of good restaurants. The pool is heated and they also have a hot tub and free snow cones sometimes. The employees are nice, even when they are kicking you out when you're not supposed to be there. Also, they let us keep our snow cones when they did

I loved their restaurant with beach view and breakfast was deliciou

Great breakfast

So we made a last minute decision to book this place for the weekend and it was awesome! I read quiet a few reviews before booking and saw some mixed ones. Here's my experience; The rooms arent the highest quality for what you pay for but had most of the amenities I would want. Decent size TV, a good size mini fridge (able to hold more than 2-3 cans/bottles), and nice beds. For the price of the room, it could "look" nicer, but it's hard to be picky when your right on the ocean. The hotel has great customer service. They give you chairs, umbrellas, and beach towels for the beach which is nice so you dont have to lug all of your own stuff out if you dont want. They have a desk stationed on the boardwalk with hotel staff ready to help you with anything! We ate at the Shores Restaurant a couple different times and didnt have any issues. The service was good as well as the food. It wasn't the best food ever, but it was good enough to go back. We parked the car in the garage ($28/day) and didnt move it all weekend. This was the best part as anybody knows dealing with traffic, especially close to the beach, can be a hassle and sometimes frustrating. Being able to walk to everything we wanted to do/eat/see all from this hotel was a huge benefit. We wanted more of a relaxed weekend on the beach, not really going out to see anything, so this place was perfect. The beach was busy (as to be expected this time of year), but didnt have a lot of "seaweed" per say like Mission Beach does for example. The hotel also offers activities you can sign up for like paddle boarding, kayaking, etc. We have this on the list for the next visit. On the final morning, checkout wasnt until 12pm so we were able to sit on the beach for a short bit before leaving and had the opportunity to see some dolphins only a couple hundred feet from shore! Keep in mind, this was right out back of the hotel on the beach, and we're sitting in launch chairs watching the waves and had a few glimpses of them coming out of the water. This is the only hotel I've ever reviewed like this and this will be our go to spot when visiting San Diego in the future. Thank you La Jolla Shores Hotel

Pricey great food. Great rooms. Nice place next to the beach from your bedroom window. Gotta go back
