This was a great experience and the views were everything. Walking distance away from the ocean and many restaurants and shopping. Will definitely stay here again!

Loved my stay here! The hotel is stylish, clean, and the staff is very friendly. The only tiny thing I would improve is the sliding bathroom door, it doesn’t provide much privacy. But overall, still a fantastic experience! I would definitely come back.

This was our second time staying at La Valencia and it was a wonderful stay. Sitting by the pool is very relaxing and the drinks you get poolside are delicious. The food poolside is also good and you can order from the kids menu if you're not too hungry. We had dinner there and their vegan option was well received by my husband. We did have one issue with the room but it was dealt with swiftly. Will definitely stay here again!

Exelente servicio y buena vista al mar

My wife and I fell in love with LaValencia a few years ago, and were delighted when our daughter Brittany and her husband Brandon decided to have their wedding there this September. From our first interaction with Bobby Fader, LaValencia's Director of Catering, he was a complete professional, and his assistant Dani was attentive, knowledgeable and amazing. As we live in the Chicago area and the bride and groom in L.A., their referrals for local florists, venues for after party and talent were all top notch. The day of the wedding we were so very well taken care of, with Dani seemingly everywhere at one time! We are so very grateful to the entire staff for helping us to put together this dream wedding, and we recommend LaValencia for anyone who wants to have an amazing event in one of the most beautiful venues in California.

We had an intimate micro-wedding here this past spring, and it was wonderful! We also stayed in a suite the night of our wedding, and the room was lovely. The staff and coordinators were so attentive and friendly. It doesn't get much more beautiful than this hotel. Nothing but love! Special shoutout to Dani, Pete and Colton.

Wonderful stay. A beautiful historical hotel. Happy Hour at Whaling Bar is very nice.

A Unique and Dog-Friendly Gem The staff at La Valencia are incredibly kind, professional, and respectful. This hotel is truly dog-friendly — at check-in they even put my dog’s name on the reservation, which made us feel so welcome. They even have a special dog menu! The food is beautifully presented, and the architecture is stunning, with traditional Spanish touches and gorgeous ceramic tiles on the walls. It feels like a one-of-a-kind place, full of charm and character. Totally recommendable for anyone visiting La Jolla.

We stopped by to have an afternoon cocktail and sat in the inside of the bar in front of the picture window overlooking La Jolla Cove. The cocktails and the service were wonderful. It was a good start to a great afternoon!
