I was just passing through on business and this hotel was very nice. Clean, quiet, with a welcoming lobby and some items in the room that showed a personal touch. Heavy drapes made sure that I slept well. Bed very comfortable and clean. More

Opening the door of our room, I found a hand written welcoming card on the bed. In every detail, the hotel displays its elegance of a boutique hotel. My favourite is the library which is adjacent to BF area. No beach view, but walking distance to the beach. Fair or even considered relatively low room rate is surprising. There's a... More

My family (my husband and two daughter's 6 and 3) and I started our trip staying at the Sheraton by Legoland. While that hotel was nice, it customer service was lacking so much we left after the third day. After I personally checked other nearby hotels, none of them compared to the West Inn. After checking in we had a... More

I stayed here with my wife and 2 young kids age 5 & 7. This is not a resort but it is certainly a good place for families Who need a place to crash. The rooms are nice size and very clean. The main concern I have is that they allow dogs - wondering how they can keep the place... More

I don't know where to start with the West Inn & Suites. We was so impressed with the quality of the hotel, the perfect staff & first class location. The hotel is situated in Carlsbad which is very close to Legoland, close to Carlsbad Village and close to the Ocean. The hotel was exceptional. We stayed at The Venetion in... More

West Inn is a hidden gem. If you are traveling with a family, this is a great option, especially those with small kids. Rooms are clean and roomy, tastily furnished, and rates are affordable. Carlsbad is not far from San Diego and the hotel is well situated for sightseeing in and out of the San Diego area. Highly recommended. More

I travel to Carlsbad a couple of times a year. I've tried other hotels but always come back to West Inn and Suites. The beds are super comfortable, the staff is very accomodating, and the nightly milk and cookes are yummy! West Inn and Suites is my home away from home! More

We recently returned from a trip to San Diego where we visited Legoland, SeaWorld, and the San Diego Zoo. I must have made 4 different hotel bookings before finally deciding to book outside of San Diego, and book at the West Inn & Suites in Carlsbad instead. What a great decision! The West Inn & Suites is rated the #1... More
