La Jolla

The staff at Grande Colonial was ultra friendly and willing to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The hotel was well maintained, clean, and easy access to the beach and restaurants. The only request would be to have more water fountains for guests to fill up their bottles during their stay. There was one water pitcher for everyone's use at the lobby, which was convenient. We enjoyed the use of Cruiser Bikes and the option of electric bikes, as needed. Thank you very much for a very nice week in La Jolla, California.

Grand Dame needs a bit of attention

We have been returning here for a long weekend each summer for the past few years. The hotel is historic (i.e. old) and is respectably maintained given its age. However, for the rates that are charged the state of the property could and should be better. Furniture fabrics are worn, cleanliness is ok but not great, stained towels and bedding, threadbare robes, etc. Daily housekeeping was late to arrive and minimal. The hotel is rated as a AAA 4 diamond but that was not our experience; more like a 3 star at this point. It could definitely benefit from some cosmetic updating. Bar and 9-10 restaurant are very good for dinner. Location is unbeatable for downtown La Jolla and we hope to return after rooms undergo a much needed renovation.
