The fully equipped gym offers massages, steam baths and plenty of privacy. We had an opportunity to look at several of the 102 rooms and suites in the main building, and they have an ambience that says charm and comfort. The one thing all the rooms share is a level of service that one rarely finds in an American hotel. The butler is merely the tip of the service iceberg. La Valencia is a place where everybody knows your name once they've heard it.
Room service is speedy and efficient.
Housekeeping is immaculate. Maitre d's, waiters and bus boys in the restaurants can't do enough for you. This gracious hospitality added an extra dimension of enjoyment to our weekend. A great advantage to staying at La Valencia is the remarkable choice of activities available in the surrounding areas in the event you get weary of wallowing in luxury. There's great shopping, elegant art galleries and fine restaurants in La Jolla itself.
