Top Dixon Lake Hotel Reviews

Best Western Escondido Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall the stay was fine. Clean rooms, decently maintained hotel, friendly staff. The parking lot is thunder dome. The lines are nearly invisible and the ones that do exist are super narrow so no one parked in any sort of pattern and loading/unloading was an issue."

The Ultimate Family Getaway- Game Room/Pool/Hot Tub/Human Chess!

10/10 Excellent

"Just a great experience."

Quality Inn Escondido San Diego North County

8/10 Good

"The hotel staff were very nice and pleasant to talk to. They were very helpful. The one thing that I noticed were the homeless that milled around the parking lot. I also discovered a cockroach in one of the drawers in my room. I brought it to the attention of the front desk. Aside from that, the location was ideal and the breakfast was adequate."

Hacienda Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly, Helpful Staff! Good Labor Day Weekend Value!"

VILLA ESCONDIDO stunning one of a kind luxury suite with views and a pool

10/10 Excellent

"Kitchen area small but well equipped. We loved sitting by pool for morning coffee. The bathroom was great. Lived having 2 sinks ."

Perched on a Hillside: Amazing Views w/Pool & Spa!

8/10 Good

"Great place. True to the listing! The styling was great! I loved the bathrooms! The sunset view was outstanding. Quiet. Private. Lots of space! They were accommodating and friendly when I had questions. Everything was clean and easy to find. The outdoor space was perfect, great for big families or friend get-togethers, allows for space within the group if needed. Our only issue was the air conditioning, unfortunately, it didn’t reach all the rooms, but it wouldn’t stop me from renting again, especially in cooler months. I actually do plan on renting again for the next college visit with my kids. Highly recommend"
