The Encinitan Hotel & Suites - Encinitas, California

OK, this is not a fancy 5 star hotel! The rooms are pretty basic. But they are clean, the beds are very comfortable. Loved the tile floors to sand and dust is easily removed. The people are fabulous with great customer service. I left my electronic book in the room, called the front desk the next morning and they had it. This is the first time I have ever called for a lost device and the hotel had it. Breakie is good. Great location. Nice pool for families. I was in the area on business and even though there was lots of noise outside, the rooms were pretty well insulated. I would stay here again!

Hands down one of top local places Ive stayed in a long time. The rooms and the service are phenomenal!

Nathan at the front desk was one of the friendliest and helpful professionals. The service and amenities only came second to the positive energy that Nathan contributed to the establishment.

I give the Encinitan Hotel a 10 out of 10. I will defiantly be coming back.

Recently, we stayed at The Encinitan Hotel and Suites. We found our partial ocean view room to be clean and spacious. The room had all the amenities (comfortable bed, small refrigerator, large screen TV, phone, and AC) needed for comfort. Then too, adjacent to the room was a large balcony which offered a view of the ocean, along with beautiful sunsets. The hotel's location is convenient, for it is close to the beach and several restaurants. It was nice!

MOLD!!!! Disgusting. Such a terrible experience. No microwave. No bathtub. Did not feel comfortable staying there with our infant. No way to contact anybody... called the front desk twice with no reply. The lobby felt like a smog check waiting area... looks like it used to be part of the garage. The continental breakfast was a joke. Everything was super processed and gross. The new logo and rebrand made me think they had fixed the place up and updated things - clearly they did not. I would not recommend this place to anybody.

Please make yourself a favor and never stay at this hotel.
I reserved a room last week for two workers and everything went well, yesterday I reserved two rooms. The room located at third floor was a king size bed, our worker went in the room, he found the bed and pillows moved like when somebody is laying down, and two wet towels in the bathroom, he thought they had not cleaned the room, he left his personal belongs and went down to get something from his car, when he returned to the room all his personal belongs were gone, somebody stole them.
Our worker went and made the report to the front desk, the lady at the front said call the police because there is nothing that we can do about it, they do not have security cameras according to the front desk lady.
Very disappointed with this hotel.

It was advertised as a non-smoking hotel and when I pulled up to the hotel people were smoking in the lobby. Additionally, it was unsafe. There were men smoking marijuana in front of the hotel, and it never was disclosed that it was immediately adjacent to a railroad station that was home to many unhoused who had pitched tents there and roamed freely clearly under the influence. The lobby of the hotel is in the parking garage. Seriously. I’m not joking. It’s not safe. The photos on the website were 100% false. The hotel in person looks NOTHING like the hotel you will encounter when you get there. I wish I had read the Yelp reviews. Do yourself a favor, and do that before you book this hotel.

Encinitan Hotel and Suites has an amazing location! The staff has been friendly and welcoming. The suite is overlooking the park, and we still catch a great view of the sunset over the ocean. The room has a kitchenette and is very spacious. We are thoroughly enjoying our stay and will be planning future trips back here as well.

I was very disappointed with my stay at The Encinitan, It is in a great location being close to Moonlight beach and downtown Encinitas.
The Bad: You could tell there was a renovation that was done at the lowest price point since the ceiling was cracking the crown moulding had gaps. They did not think about the needs of guests since the only outlets were on 1 side of the room not near the bed and I had to unplug the lamp and Clock to plug in my Cpap and Phone for charging. The water pressure in the shower is extremely low and makes it hard to shower, The Noise from the train and the road below was terrible as the train blairs it horn when passing through the area past 11pm, and the cars and trucks sound like they are in your room.( I was on the 3rd floor )
The amount of bird poop on the balcony was disgusting,
and Housekeeping was knocking on my door at 8:30am on a Saturday! I brought this all up to the check in desk in the morning and all I got from was that he would talk to the Housekeeping manager. The parking is terrible and my Truck got scratched while I was there, and I was only there 1 night! Not recommended as a place to stay.
