- BMB McJun 21, 20265.0Perfect location, very close walk to restaurants, shops, the ocean (including seals, sea lions, pelicans, a park and beach). Quiet building for being in such a busy area and in an older building. Quick valet. A small heated pool.
- DMDavid MartinezJun 13, 20265.0Ocean view from the fourth floor. Top-shelf service from staff, very polite and professional. The service equally matches the views, and right off of Prospect St., the heart and pulse of the business district.
- JVJ VJun 11, 20265.0Stayed here with my daughter for a few days and although the building is older, the rooms were well taken care of and Service was amazing. Genuinely everyone we interacted with, from valet guys to front desk to the maintenance guy that came to fix the tv for us (it wasn’t working but we called and he was sent up right away and took care of it and brought us extra snacks and waters) were all so nice. Also the location was perfect. Walkable to children’s beach, the cove, and a bunch of shops and restaurants and galleries. I would definitely stay here again. The only negative was the room service breakfast food was not very good and I wouldn’t order from there again. But there are plenty of other places to grab an early bite in the area. They also had e-bikes you can use for the first hour complimentary although they were too tall for my 10 year old to use so we couldn’t enjoy those. They did have some older regular bikes one of the guys pulled out for us to try but those were also too tall. If they added a couple of smaller bikes that would be ideal because it is a great area to take the bikes out around.
- AHAllison HouseMay 29, 20265.0Updating my previous review as the manager at the Grande Colonial is incredible and went above and beyond to make sure this matter was taken care of. I am honestly blown away by how she reached out by email and phone, then tracked down a shop in Venice Beach (no website & all the way in venice beach) and purchased the item to ship me as a replacement. Was not expecting this at all and can't speak highly enough about how quickly she worked to make sure I got the item back! Editing my review to 5 stars for the outstanding hospitality and service. The location and room is great (we got the ocean view king suite) - incredible views and fabulous service (see note above)! As always with any hotel, put all valuables in the provided safe.
- RMRobert MackMay 25, 20265.0This hotel is a Gem; an ideal location (in the middle of everyting around the La Jolla cove), incredibly attentive staff, and with a beatiful European like old world charm. The staff takes pride in their hotel, it is very well taken care of. When we were heading to the La Jolla beach they offered us beach chairs, towels and water (no charge). They offered to drive us to a local restaurant in their golf cart, simply when we asked where the restaurant was located. Their own restaurant is worth sitting down for a meal. I got a Salmon and cream cheese bagel for breakfast, and commented to my wife there was enough smoked salmon in this thing you could have made three platters. You can't go wrong with this place. Kuddos to the staff, among the best I've experienced.
