엠프레스 호텔 오브 라 졸라

Nice!

Dated property that can use a refresh.

Comfortable beds, friendly and very helpful staff Shower head wasn’t the best Complimentary breakfast could be improved

Solo traveler. In town for the annual La Jolla Cove open water swim races. The Empress is about 10 minutes walk to the cove but significantly less expensive then the hotels next the cove. The place is nice and well kept. The only thing that wasn't above average was the breakfast as it was so so.

Run down hotel

Nice stay. The parking garage and expense was a hassle. I arrived early and was greeted with an early checkin fee so my wife and I decided to wait before checking in to save $30. I felt like it was going to the add on expenses that you get in Las Vegas resorts. Are stay was nice. Rooms are a little dated but being near the coast somewhat to be expected.

Perfect in almost every way except for a strange intermittent banging noise which could have been the elevators so I would suggest making sure you’re booked as far away as possible.

The bed is so soft and uncomfortable. It gave me a backache

Nice place, but could do with some repairs. The place where breakfast was served was a bit run down. Breakfast was similar to many hotels, had expected something nicer. Also, didn’t like that had to pay extra for parking. Staff was friendly and helpful and room was clean and comfortable.

Service could have been better.

We have always had a positive experience for several years at Empress Hotel, for some reason, they got rid of the valet. Not user friendly! Also, yes, we left around 12:00 noon on Saturday, however, no room cleaning service by the time we returned around 6:00 PM.

Nice hotel great location. Bed was too soft for me. Would definitely stay again.

Upon arrival, the front desk staff were friendly and very helpful, assisting us with securing our two-day parking pass for our stay. The location of this hotel is prime, and we easily walked to everything. Our room was very quiet, and the bed was comfortable. Dining was both excellent and convenient: daily hot breakfast included and a top-rated restaurant for dinner inside the hotel. I would definitely recommend staying at the Empress Hotel when visiting La Jolla and we plan to stay here again.

The Empress is wonderfully located, an easy walk to La Jolla Cove with restaurants, convenience stores, and shops all around. That part was excellent. Breakfast covered the basics reliably: scrambled eggs, sausages, bread, coffee. Nothing fancy, but consistent. My only gripe was the juice selection: overly sweet mixes and no simple orange juice. Where the stay stumbled was room maintenance. Our bathroom door lock did not work at check-in, and engineering had to fix it. The toilet’s flush leaked and later failed on our last day. The in-room safe would not open because the batteries ran low while our documents were inside. The iron left a black stain on my shorts the first time I used it, which suggests it was not cleaned after a previous guest. None of these alone would be a deal-breaker, but together they added up.

Excellent choice for our girls weekend to La Jolla. Walkable to shopping, seals and super good food and drink. And bonus having the Manhattan restaurant on site with live music every night!

Proximity to the coast and excellent food choices. Breakfast was convenient and solid.

Our experience at Empress was great from minute we checked in to check out. The rooms are clean and spacious, the complementary breakfast was delicious and the restaurant there is to die for!! This hotel is very conveniently located as well. Would definitely stay here again!!

Amazing staff & beautiful rooms
