Let me start by saying that it was a nice hotel besides some small things here and there. We arrived very late/early in the am, we were greeted. Everyone was really nice that worked there. But we did have some information issues with one staff (conceirge). We asked what time a restuarant near by closed ... she told us 9:30 or 10 ... well, it closed at 8:30, good thing I called otherwise it would have messed up our plans. Also, we got charged for something in our minibar that we didn't get. My husband called down there, talked to someone, said they'd take care of it but it wasn't. We had to deal with that again when we checked out, which was then taken care of. Now, the hotel itself was not as clean as I had thought. For that price and the reviews, I expected clean. The carpet in our jr suite was stained and filthy. The decor was nice but it lacked in the clean department. Overall, it was a nice hotel but for the price adn it being a 3 star hotel, I expected nicer. Also, while we were there the elevator broke down ... it was fixed promptly. It's a good hotel, located on the beach, parking is 20 a night in the garage, free spots are hard to come by. I just doubt I'd stay there again, there are too many other places to stay that might be a little better.
This hotel is located in Pacific Beach which is a relaxed, young area with lots of restaurants,bars, and shops. The center of this area is Garnet Street which is in walking distance from the hotel. The staff at Pacific Terrace Hotel were extremely friendly, helpful and attentive. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Two room features we liked were the alarm clock where you could plug in your IPOD and the big screen TV. One complaint is the walls/ceiling were thin so it was hard to sleep in with all the noise from children in nearby rooms running around. We were pleasantly surprised with the continental breakfast. Overall we would recommend this hotel. However, keep in mind this hotel is about a 30 cab ride to downtown San Diego/Gaslamp Quarter and 35 to the Zoo. You can take the bus but we were told it would take close to an hour with transfers. However, you can take a short bus ride on the #30bus south to Old Town and you can take the #30bus north to La Jolla (nice area with shops/restaurants/and seal beach).
What a beautiful place to stay. An easy walk along the beach to resturants and shopping.I was with my young granddaughter and never felt uncomfortable in the neighborhood. Sitting on the balcony watching surfers, dolphins, joggers, walkers, etc. it doesn't get much better than this. The staff was exceptional. Couldn't ask for more !!
This was a great place. The view from the balcony and pool was AWESOME (right on the beach) We have 2 small children and the hotel staff was friendly and courteous and patient with the kids...the only thing that was a negative was the room service... they order the food from 2 restaurants off the property about 3 blocks away. It takes along time to receive your food and when you get it, it's cold. So if you plan to order rm svce, don't expect hot food. Other than that, we had an awesome vacation. They had turn down service for new years eve and champagne and chocolates...great customer service!!! Breakfast in the am was good, lots of variety, mostly cereals, pastries, fruit and boiled eggs....good start to the am...oh yeah and starbucks coffee!!! Would definetely stay again!!!
We think The Pacific Terrace is the best choice on Pacific Beach. It's the most gorgeous hotel there, and you have easy walking access to the beach, shops, grocery/drug stores, and restaurants.
The View, The View.. The hotel was Clean and Staff was there to help I've stayed at many of places and this would rank on my top 5 places to return for the price the only down fall and I mean only is the parking it costs 20 bucks if you can't find a free spot on side of hotel, but if you do then stay there food and entertainment is in walking distance..The rooms have great decor not like pictured on some travel sites very tommy bohama nice dark wood colors, beds are very comfy we slept with the balcony doors open to hear the ocean could have stayed in bed all day, upgrade to ocean view worth it plus some....
