Top Olde Carlsbad Hotel Reviews

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites

8/10 Good

"Room was spacious, clean with very comfortable beds. Kitchenette made meals easy. The Breakfast room gets is a little over-crowded, but the coffee was pretty good. The spa was not working while I was there. Fitness center was adequate for a good cardio/weight workout. Hotel location is great for visiting the beach. Happy that we chose this hotel for our stay."

Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area

8/10 Good

"Great property overall. The main reason I did not give it a higher rating is because the walls are thin and for 3 nights we could hear the people next door to us yelling and talking very loud till 3am. You could hear the entire conversation for 3-4 hours. The other thing that I did not like was that the bar at the pool closed early. We got to the pool at 6pm and the food and drink area was closed. It was a great place as far as location. We were close to a lot of attractions and stores."

MISSION PACIFIC BEACH RESORT, part of JdV by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"Arrived 7/26, fell 7/27, sent to hospital w/multiple injuries. The hotel packed up my stuff, loaded it my car in their garage, brought my electronics to me at hospital and gave permission to leave my car there until someone could come to get it. This is beyond good service and hospitality, these folks are saintly!!"

Motel 6 Carlsbad, CA - North

10/10 Excellent

"Normally they would have lost a star for the incidents that happened while I was there but the way they handled it is why they still got full stars. First there was a hair and two of the towels folded into them but they were super apologetic and replaced them right away. More than likely they had gotten stuck to the towels in the dryer it's not uncommon so I wasn't about to freak out. The second thing is I extended my stay and it didn't update in the system so they were able to rebook my room and it was awkward when somebody let them self into my room and was super confused why I was in there. But again they were super apologetic for the oversight and the delayed system update. Honestly all kinds of things are going to happen but it's how the staff handles it that makes all the difference. Wonderful staff and they cleaned exceptionally well during my stay so I will definitely go back."
