Top Salk Institute for Biological Studies Hotel Reviews

La Jolla Shores Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"everything onsite is good"

Hyatt Regency La Jolla

10/10 Excellent

"I satisfied my staying here nice and clean towels, linens are the best quality. but I would like to recommend the hotel manager get a new mattress for room 803. The mattress is too broken, I felt like I slept on the puddle hole. Healthy mattress as Tempur Pedic will be the best for healthy back."

The Lodge at Torrey Pines

10/10 Excellent

"Truly exceptional hotel! A one of a kind hotel steeped in history with impeccable service. I would highly recommend the Lodge to anyone looking for a memorable vacation."

Hilton Garden Inn San Diego Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great visit! I have complaints, from the bar to the front desk to the room to the amenities. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, San Diego North, CA

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel in a business park so it’s deserted on the weekends. There’s a Starbucks across the street but otherwise not much that’s open. It was packed with school kids at a band competition so breakfast was slammed. Nice gym."

Homewood Suites by Hilton San Diego-Del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay. The rooms were big and had a great view of the fireworks from Disneyland. We enjoyed the breakfast and happy hour service. The place is a bit far from walking to Disneyland. However, there is a paid shuttle service which can be spotty at times. Overall, we had a great stay."

Mid-Century Modern Oasis in La Jolla Shores: Steps to Beach, Fun for Families!

10/10 Excellent

"Pure family vacation perfection. My kids couldn’t stop talking about the “tree house” place and kept begging to return. Our second time staying at the house did not disappoint. Our host truly went above and beyond when the restaurant valet lost our car key and we realized we were locked out since the house key was attached to the lost car key! Rachelle made a stressful situation feel like a breeze and was so warm and responsive. Thank you for another fantastic stay!"
