Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Columbia, Illinois89 contributions43 helpful votes
Nice place to rest our heads with a decent breakfast and garage parking (additional fee). Garage is gated and has chargers for electric vehicles - 4 I believe. Lobby is open and bright and the breakfast area is clean and offers a lot of tables. While we were there, one of the two elevators was not in service. This wasn't terrible as you only waited a tad longer or could take the stairs. The only thing I found odd was that the cleaning staff with their carts were using the same elevators - this did slow the elevator service a tad more, and fill it up causing you to "wait for the next one". Also, it did get a little warm in the room at night. I believe this is because the occupancy sensor in the room. Obviously when you're sleeping, you aren't tripping that sensor and I believe it allowed the ac to turn off. I'm sure this is a west coast/California law and there may have been a way around it, but I didn't spend the time to check. Also, any time someone gets up to use the restroom at night, the light in the entry would go on (again, occupancy sensor) which was a touch annoying. That said, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again as those couple of items I saw as minor issues.

Hotel's Favourite
My sister and I came for the dog shows at Del Mar. This hotel was extremely convenient to the fairgrounds. Room itself was very spacious and the shower was wonderful. We were only able to try the breakfast one morning; there were plenty of options, including oatmeal, waffles, toast and juices. I Iiked that lobby had coffee or hot water with options of tea or hot chocolate earlier than their breakfast buffet opened. There is a mini mart right nearby if you have to leave before they begin serving. Resturant across the street at another hotel was very convenient for a place to eat dinner. Nice dog walking space and I thought it was very cute that Jinx was included as a VIP (very important pet) on their sign board at the doors. We were on the ground floor and overall it was quiet, staff was very helpful. Definitely would stay here again.

A nice Hampton Inn, overall but a couple areas to improve . First, the pool Is heated but it’s probably 75 degrees max. Brr…We went swimming each of our 4 night day trip and our lips turned blue after 15 minutes. Second, they close the breakfast area and don’t let anyone use the area after. My daughter and I got kicked out playing cards one night. I understand they want the area clean in the AM but c’mon… Besides those two issues it was a pleasant stay and clean hotel

Dear Raul, Thank you for your taking the time to leave a review. Our pool is heated to 85 degrees year-round. I can understand with this cold weather it could've felt less warm. I do apologize for the inconvenience of been asked to move from the breakfast area, like you said, it is to prevent the morning crew taking time from prepping the food and been on time to open for our valued customers. Overall we appreciate your feedback.

The hotel is a good option for avoiding the over-priced hotels in downtown San Diego. Check-in staff were helpful and efficient, the room (king suite) was large and quiet, and the breakfast was well-tended (with the typical Hampton Inn fare). Despite proximity to freeways (a plus), the hotel is quiet. Two minor downsides: (a) accessing the hotel from the freeways is tricky and (2) parking charge is $12 per night, and taxes add substantially to basic room rate. Straying here really does require a car. as it is about 15 miles north of the airport.

I was a little worried after reading some of the negative reviews, but this place was great. Definitely one of the better Hampton Inns I've stayed at. I always hate paying for parking, but $12 was cheaper than most places and they have a nice covered/secure lot under the hotel. The location was out of the way for us, I would never stay here without a car, but it was always easy to get where we wanted to be in San DIego. The staff was great, and everyone seemed eager to help out. Breakfast had a decent variety of options. We will probably be back here.

After checkout I received an emailed statement which included a $75 pet cleaning fee (my dog did not have any accidents or destroy anything). Additionally I was charged $12 a day parking fee. I was not made aware of these charges at check in. My fun birthday getaway was hit with a 20% overage on the rate quoted. Fees need to be disclosed prior to check in.

Unfortunately I have to correct you, you were informed of the pet fee as you signed the pet agreement for Ginger, in addition the agent remembered telling you about the parking fee as well. Again since you made your reservation through a third party we can only inform you upon check in wich we did.

We stayed at this hotel this past weekend for a kids soccer tournament. All of our expectations for quality, cleanliness, service, etc. were met. But this hotel really shined after checkout. When we got home, my daughter realized she left her favorite stuffed animal at the hotel. I called the next morning and the staff was very kind and understanding as they took down my information. I received a call later that day from Yuridia Gonzales who was absolutely exceptional. She informed me she located the lost stuffed animal and immediately made arrangements to have it shipped quickly to our home. I am very pleased with the client experience I received from this hotel.

My favorite hotel when spending a few "RACING" days where the Turf meets the Surf. Easy check in and rewarded with a few soft drinks as a rewards member. Clean hotel and room. Breakfast is all you can ask for during a stay. Printing services and a welcoming pool outside the front door. Great place to stay,

Great location, five minute drive to Torrey Pine Beach. Reliable taxi service and ride share services. Convenient to La Jolla and surrounding areas. Very friendly staff. Only Hilton that went above to recognize my Hilton Honors status--very much appreciated. They completed each request wonderfully. Decent breakfast each morning, comfortable lobby with excellent area to work and be productive outside of your room. All day/night coffer, tea and cucumber water available in the lobby. Excellent Precor and Peloton fitness center. Close walk to the gas station's convenience store for missing/needed items beyond sundries. Each staff member actually proved responsive and helpful. They SMS you upon check-in to see if you are okay and they monitor that channel ready to address your needs.

We had a great stay at Hampton Inn San Diego del Mar. Our room was very clean and the staff was very friendly. It is a bit far away from downtown however we had a car so we did not have any problem for visiting places in San Diego. The free parking seems very limited so I would recommend paying for the gated parking. The hotel is near a shopping center that has a supermarket as well as restaurants. The microwave and small fridge in the room were quite helpful. The breakfast was always the same which was ok for us for a quick breakfast before our trips. The facilities were always clean and the food was fresh. The only downside were the beds. The mattresses were extremely soft and squeaked with any movement. My kids slept perfectly and found them very comfortable but I did have some problems with the noise and would have preferred another type of mattress. We would stay here again if we come back to San Diego.
