Top Rancho Bernardo Hotel Reviews

Kings Inn San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about this hotel was great would definitely stay here again."

La Jolla Shores Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel location and staff was very helpful and friendly. Our room had a great view of the park next door and the beach from the balcony. Beds were very comfortable and having the restaurant attached was very handy if we were too tired to venture out for dinner. I would highly recommend this hotel!"

Hampton Inn San Diego/Mission Valley

10/10 Excellent

"I loved the patio. There was a large big pool clean, the fireplace and the Jacuzzi was my favorite. We did a lot of walking and my body was so sore and it felt really good to sit in the hot tub. The staff was very accommodating and the breakfast was very good. Everyone was friendly. I loved it here. I’ll definitely stay again."

Paradise Point Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"We stayed for the PIFA event across the street, so it was very convenient. Check in went smooth and Roberto was very helpful in getting our room very close by other family members. One of the staff members gave us a ride to the event, which was a blessing since we walked with our uncle who was elderly and barely could walk. I wish I remembered her name because she was very kind, patient, and a sweetheart. The only negative is, I wished there was a microwave in our room, which made it difficult to warm up food. Lucky our other family members stayed in a suite so we used there's. Other than that, it's a beautiful place to stay."
