La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"Very pleasant hotel, with friendly staff, exceptional hospitality, and we especially appreciated the water and coffee available in the lobby."

Stevens Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Large room, no stairs"

Hyatt House Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms. Nice people"

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Carlsbad

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and the hotel and parking lot seemed safe. Breakfast was decent for what it was. The bed was quite uncomfortable but I don’t like most hotel beds. I felt for the price it could have been a bit better but it may have just been that it was a weekend and there was some other activities in town going on it seemed."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"Muy Rico el desayuno no’s gusto"

Days Inn by Wyndham Carlsbad

8/10 Good

"The hotel has several upgrades that I appreciated, such as the laminate floors and the spacious shower. Parking is convenient, and the hotel is located just 20 minutes from Carlsbad Caverns National Park. However, the breakfast could have offered a better variety; I missed having fruit. On a positive note, the staff at the front desk is very kind and accommodating. Overall, it was a pleasant stay despite the breakfast options."
