Top La Jolla Shores Hotel Reviews

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was very clean and comfortable. The hotel itself is very charming. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. They have a large carafe of complementary flavored water at the desk. One day it was watermelon another day it was cucumber celery. I like the location of the hotel also, it's not too far from a grocery store. There are different restaurants and places to eat very close."
