Everything about La Valencia is beautiful and the views are breathtaking. I had my wedding here and Bobby and his team made sure that everything was perfect and the staff was remarkable. The rooms are charming, clean and give you that southern California luxury experience. Being directly in La Jolla cove is magical and you can hear the waves from your room and all different parts of the hotel. I cannot wait to come back and stay at the hotel. It is such a special place with so much history, charm and beauty.

We just had our wedding at La Valencia on May 9th 2026 and everything was absolutely perfect. From the moment we met Bobby, we knew this was the place for us! He is such a professional and also the funniest and most personable. We knew he had to be part of our special day. From then we had Dani who was lovely and very organized!!! My family and my new in laws have spent a lot of time at the pool over the last year as they traveled in to plan our special day and let me tell you, Mike at the pool is the absolute best!!! He is so great and accommodating and always has an amazing attitude. Thank you La Valencia for the most perfect wedding venue we could have ever dreamed of with the most amazing staff to make it run so smoothly!

Great location (beach, oceanic spectacle), far away enough from San Diego… Friendly service. You get what you pay for.

This review is for the concierge service we received from Shraddha. As soon as we walked in the hotel on the first day (our room wasn't ready), she got us some waters and told us all about the hotel, surrounding area, etc. She also gave us a map and suggested some things we may want to do. The following two days, she kept up with us and managed our dinner reservations with quickness and ease. She really made a difference in our stay.

Our stay at La Valencia was exceptional, beyond 5 stars. The service was amazing - everyone who took care of us were so kind and helpful and personable. We were celebrating our anniversary since got married at La Valencia in May 2025 and had an absolutely amazing time! Bobby Fader and Dani Hendricks from the Catering and Special Events teams went above and beyond to take care of us and made our wedding phenomenal. During our recent stay last week, Bobby and Dani made some special touches to our stay. We also had a kind welcome from Mark and the concierge team. I cannot say enough good things about La Valencia and all the staff! Of course it’s a gorgeous hotel with beautiful views. But what makes it truly amazing are the people who work there. We’ll be back!

Just had a great vacation! Loved La Valencia Hotel...so nostalgic and very well done! Our room was in the West Wing with two queen beds, down pillows and crisp hi thread count sheets; it was a completely refurbished room that still maintained it's history. The staff, from the moment we pulled up throughout the very end of our stay, was friendly, courteous and extremely helpful. The grounds were impeccable and in a perfect location...on one side is the ocean and the other the village. We would definitely stay there again!
