Top Descanso Hotel Reviews

Riviera Oaks Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Good location to get away from the city"

Ramada by Wyndham San Diego Poway Miramar

8/10 Good

"Place does what you need it to do very well. Provided me a clean room to sleep, free parking, and free breakfast. Is it top notch? No, but for the price I can’t complain one bit. I was in town for a wedding and everyone else I knew spent double or triple what I paid for one night elsewhere and I stayed two nights. Would highly recommend if you’re not a bougie person."

Lamplighter Inn & Suites at SDSU

8/10 Good

"This hotel was easy to find. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area when I asked for a specific type of food location. They immediately suggested a few places down the road breakfast was a bit carbohydrate heavy, but a wonderful variety, and my family and I found what we needed to fuel for the day. The room was clean and the air-conditioning worked great. The only downside was the interior of the hotel seemed out of date."

Sonesta ES Suites San Diego - Rancho Bernardo

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in a two bedroom handicap suite. The room had plenty of room to accommodate our family of 5 (3 young adult kids) We appreciated the breakfast and the location to several grocery stores including Costco and Trader Joes. The staff were friendly and available."
