This is a shout-out to the excellent service we received from a valet parking attendant early this afternoon at the Hilton Torrey Pines. He was exceptionally courteous, helpful, and kind, especially as he assisted us while we managed two dogs and a wheelchair user.

We had an amazing stay at Hilton La Jolla Torrey Pines. I surprised my boyfriend with a golf trip for his birthday, and everything about this hotel made the experience feel effortless and special.
Booking a tee time was incredibly easy and seamless, which took a lot of stress out of planning. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. It was perfect for relaxing after a long day on the course. Despite being in a great location, the hotel itself was quiet and peaceful, which we really appreciated.
There are also plenty of dining options nearby, so we never had trouble finding great places to eat without having to travel far.
A special shout-out to Charles at valet. He was consistently friendly, welcoming, and genuinely put a smile on our faces every time we arrived. His positive energy really stood out and added to the overall experience.
We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it for a relaxing getaway or special occasion trip.

Be aware of hidden fees! They charged an unexpected $40-per-night resort fee that no one mentioned, and we only discovered it when it was taken from our deposit. They also charge $50 per night for parking. The hotel itself is very old and definitely needs renovation, yet they still try to squeeze every extra dollar out of you while you’re there. We won’t be coming back

So this place is lovely and in a great location and the staff are very nice. The only reason I stay here though is because they have Peloton bikes. Unfortunately the last two times I’ve been here, of the 4 bikes they have 3 are not connected to the internet which makes them unusable and the fourth is so heavily used that the resistance brakes are completely worn down and almost unusable. I’ve let them know about it both times but not sure if it will be fixed.
