Old School Charm

The staff was amazing, especially Kassandra at the front desk. Her friendly demeanor and customer service was outstanding. The rooms are well appointed and clean, with many having ocean views. The ocean and La Jolla Village, with its shops and restaurants, are within easy walking distance. The hotel has the feel of a family owned, boutique hotel.

Amazing hotel stay

we had an amazing stay at your hotel, we loved the smallness feel and the ease of getting around. The staff were super friendly! We have never stayed at a hotel that offered free snacks and water! That was an added bonus. The pool was clean and we loved hanging out there. We also got an amazing sunset right from our 4th floor. We will be coming back!

I love the vintage vibe, it looks great. Location is fantastic for walking around. The carpets could use either a deep cleaning or replacing. There is a minor odor and I think it's probably the carpets.

Enjoying La Jolla

We enjoyed staying at the Grande Colonial for 3 nights. Our room was spacious, clean, had water bottles, coffee and complimentary snacks. We had an ocean view room with an actual ocean view. The location was convenient to all of our activities. The valet parking was a big plus as well. The entire staff was extremelly responsive and friendly. We will definitely return.

I love the location of this hotel is very convenient. It has great views and people at the recepción are very kind. I always come back
Adriana, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great staff, very friendly & helpful. Very close to beaches. Lots of noise in our first floor room from upstairs rooms. Unable to get TV streaming to work---even with attention from a staff member. Noise alone would probably keep us from staying again. We stayed 17 nights--we know the place well!!
