    Great hotel with good breakfast option, perfect location in walking distance to town center and beach. Nice hang-out areas with ocean view. Just the bathroom could need an upgrade.

    Great location!!!!! Carlsbad Village is a super spot for food and relaxing. The beach is literally across the street from the hotel. You are 5 blocks from great coffee shops and eateries. We changed rooms after night one. The staff was extremely accommodating. No issues the rest of our stay. They have a nice full breakfast every morning 6:30-9:30am. They have a small workout room with free weights, stationary bike and treadmill. We’ll come back here because of the location and the service!

    The hotel is a bit older, but clean, friendly staff, nice amenities, and a location that can’t be beat. We stayed in the king suite with our toddler and could put her down early in the bedroom. In the morning, got beach chairs and toys and a walk across the street to the beach. Beach wasn’t crowded, wasn’t a huge walk to the water. Will be staying here again.

    Almost perfect stay! The Best Western Plus Beach View Lodge in Carlsbad exceeded expectations in so many ways: the breakfast was great, customer service was warm and attentive, and the location couldn’t be better. It’s close to everything yet just far enough to feel peaceful and quiet. I especially loved the fire pit area and the ocean view, which made mornings and evenings feel extra special. The only downsides were the super tight parking spaces…definitely manageable, just a bit tricky if you have a larger vehicle and it wasn’t complementary like advertised. Overall, an amazing spot for a relaxing getaway. I’d absolutely stay here again! 🌊🔥

    Lovely hotel! Very cool, southern california vibes, right across the street from the beach, and walking distance from all the restaurants and shopping of downtown Carlsbad. We loved watching & listening to the ocean from the upper patio deck, and really enjoyed the gas fireplace in the room. That was such a unique touch and so enjoyable! I liked being able to walk to the restaurants downtown without being RIGHT in the middle of the all the noise. It was a perfect location. Good breakfast included hot foods. Nice staff were gracious & helpful. The manager Andrew helped us out with our questions and gave us some great recommendations for where to eat & what to do. We were here for a two-day couple's trip and definitely want to come back longer for a family vacation.
