A really nice hotel in an excellent location. The rooms are quite large and nice, but a bit dated. The bathrooms are updated and roomy as well. Great restaurant/bar in the lobby. The food and service were great. The doormen, restaurant servers and managers were great. Front desk and housekeeping were efficient, but not overly welcoming. Nice pool area too.

I love the vintage vibe, it looks great. Location is fantastic for walking around. The carpets could use either a deep cleaning or replacing. There is a minor odor and I think it's probably the carpets.

This is the second time I’ve stayed at Grande Colonial and enjoyed my stay both times. The room is clean, robes and slippers are provided, and the best parts are that the snacks/soda/water and valet parking are included! The location is also central and you can truly relax by being able to walk to the stores/restaurants and the beach. The service is also very friendly and down to earth. I would not stay anywhere else when visiting La Jolla.

Great staff, very friendly & helpful. Very close to beaches. Lots of noise in our first floor room from upstairs rooms. Unable to get TV streaming to work---even with attention from a staff member. Noise alone would probably keep us from staying again. We stayed 17 nights--we know the place well!!

Liked - valet. They were awesome & “on top of it”. Location was primo - right in town & short stroll to beach. Disliked - hotel was comfortable but tired/old. The $50 hospitality fee was ridiculous.

2 flaws: 1). no heated pool and the staff were unaware and it was not fixed in time. The heated pool was one reason why i booked here. 2). Despite being upgraded (ty! btw) the floors were so creaky and i felt bad for the folks down stairs. Outside of that, I would recommend staying here for all the benefits this hotel has to offer! Felt like a resort and i most especially loved the bathroom! it felt like my personal spa
