Top North Beach Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego - Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"The outdoor pool was very nice and fun to swim in especially at night, it was beautiful. The staff was also very helpful and kind. They went out of their way to be accommodating. The cookies were delicious."

The Encinitan Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Location is great, close to the beach and main part of town. It’s refreshing to come across a hotel that doesn’t charge a ridiculous amount for parking and wifi. The room I had was large with a kitchenette, living room area and separate bedroom area."

Hilton San Diego/Del Mar

8/10 Good

"Property location is great. One mile easy walk to beach. We walked there every day. Also directly across street from Del Mar fairground. Hotel itself is fine! Needs a little updating - our room was spacious. Suite was perfect size for family with kids. TVs are old school- no smart TVs. Paper guides for local channels. And our phone in our room didn’t work at all to call front desk etc. also there is only one elevator on each side. Not a small hotel so our walk with all our stuff from our car to the elevator and back to our room was LONG. Was completely miserable with two kids when we got in late. If you don’t want to lug your stuff FAR I would suggest asking for a first floor room or room near elevator"

Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area

8/10 Good

"Overall a good experience. The room was large and well stocked. I did find some hair in the bathroom but wasn’t a big deal. The restaurant was severely understaffed, that’s the only place to get a Starbucks coffee at the moment with the cafe market being renovated and it took close to 30 mins for two coffees. One person in front of us. The shop is expensive but good if you don’t want to leave the resort. The pools were nice and staff was so friendly! Would recommend to friends and family."

Hilton Garden Inn San Diego Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean, lobby was clean but the staff is why I'd go back. I goofed and checked in a day after my booked day. I entered the wrong check in date when I was building my booking. I get there and the front desk made it feel like it wasn't a problem, and had my room still ready and just moved my check in-check out date. They made me feel like I was a 10 year guest and not just passing through. I'm staying there again when I'm in the Del Mar area."
