Top Del Mar Fairgrounds Hotel Reviews

Best Western Premier Hotel Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"Very cute hotel and well located… will come again!"

Residence Inn San Diego Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast was much better than expected. The service was over the top. All staff was helpful and friendly. I will be returning."

DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego - Del Mar

8/10 Good

"My niece and I really enjoyed our stay! We were only there for one night, so we didn’t get to experience everything the hotel had to offer since we were busy exploring San Diego, but everything we did experience was really good. The day and night staff were excellent, and our room was really nice, spacious, and clean. It was a little dated, but we didn’t mind that at all. The warm cookies were an excellent way to welcome guests to the property and won us over right away! 🍪 The only things worth noting are that the shower water gets SUPER hot, so make sure you let it run for a bit before getting in. Also, keep the bathroom door cracked because there’s no ventilation, and it gets really hot in there while you’re showering. The artwork in the lobby is beautiful, and the fact that the artist regularly paints new pieces right there on the property is super cool! As far as the location goes, it really wasn’t too far from everything we wanted to do. And trust me, we did A LOT! To be fair, we were hitting all the touristy spots, so we were city and beach hopping throughout our stay. I didn’t get a chance to take any photos because we were short on time, but I’ll definitely be back for another stay! 😊"

Winners Circle Solana Beach Del Mar Resort

10/10 Excellent

Del Mar Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Location to beach and village shops couldn’t be better. Beds and linens were great. Nice baked goods in the reception area. Coffee machine broken, but promised to be fixed in the next few days (coffee in the room as backup). Definitely a do over."

L'Auberge Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"The service was impeccable. The location was perfect. The views from our balcony were outstanding. This was a perfect relaxing end to a convention in Downtown San Diego. We both feel restored."

San Diego Marriott Del Mar

"Staff was very helpful and nice. Our room was very clean and I liked that the parking was covered parking."
