Preferred Hillcrest hotels

"This hotel is in a great location to lots of things to do. I stayed in a room with a bay view and it was beautiful. The rooms have balconies and it was wonderful leaving the balcony door open to let in the ocean breeze. Room is comfortable and clean but my shower did not drain. Definitely recommend this place. "

"The hotel spaces are amazing. The 24 hour diner might be one of the best in SoCal. The tapas restaurant was stellar, and like all things at this hotel a lot for the eye to take in. The maximalism of the hotel & rooms might be too much for some, others will find this a utopia. Also best assortment of alcohol in the mini bar was probably ever regardless of the price. Not a party hotel by any means, but definitely on the younger side/energy. Overall a great stay in a very California hotel away from the hustle & bustle of downtown or gas lamp."

"Definitely will stay again "

"My only complaint is that the bed is very hard and uncomfortable. The restaurant Hudson & Nash has very few selections for dinner but the food was tasty. Everything else was great. "

"This place was giving Hawaii vibes. My kid loved the pool slide. Nice to watch seaworld fireworks from our room and kayaked at the marina. "

"I reserved a corner room and they upgraded to a deluxe room. It had great views and the walk along the bay was enjoyable."

"The hotel is beautiful and feels very special. The service everywhere is warm and accommodating. Just what we needed!! It is a resort so everything on property is pricey--but also worth the price. Lovely area around the hotel for restaurants. The beach is right there and the facility is gorgeous. I worried that it might be a little "tired" but it is newly renovated and it is just what you want it to be!!"

"Plenty of HC parking, easy to use, One spikey leaf plant next to the walkway, between HC parking and entry doors, needs to be moved or replaced. Both my grandson and myself were stab by the sharp points on the plant. This was our second stay at your hotel and we really enjoyed the facility both times. Room 236 this trip."
