The air conditioning in our room did not work the entire stay. Because of the holiday weekend the hotel was short-staffed. Otherwise it’s a great place, including the rooftop restaurant.

Great place in LaJolla
Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice boutique hotel with a nice & different vibe than a larger corporate hotel. Love the welcome cocktail, soft comfy robes, and the balcony with a view of the Pacific. And it's in a great location - easy walks to restaurants, shops, and the beach. Took just under twenty minutes to the airport in the early morning.

Absolutely loved this hotel—so much personality! The views (we were on the second floor) looked straight out at the ocean. The balcony overlooks the iconic curved street leading down to the tip of La Jolla/Oceanfront.
We walked just a couple of doors down to Duke’s and had dinner on their oceanview deck. Then we came back and headed to the rooftop bar that extends over the hotel—it was the perfect end to the evening.
Parking might be a pain, but you can Valet by pulling right up to the front door. There is a parking garage down the street to the right - if you want to self park.
We’ll definitely stay here again!

Conveniently located property within walking distance of La Jolla cove, excellent restaurants, and a variety of upscale and earthy shopping. Staff was wonderful and The Birdseye restaurant on the 4th floor was wonderful. Had drinks and appetizers there several nights. The view is amazing.

The employees of this hotel could not have been any nicer. They were extremely polite- going above and beyond with any request. I was frustrated though that the hotel only had one staff member on duty at a time. This required them to work the front desk, valet, the convenience store attached, and take care of anything else that needed to be done. They handled it with a smile but they were clearly torn between duties. I hate when business try to squeeze every dime out of paying customers at the expense of the hotel guests and their employees. I realize this was a boutique hotel but that’s not an excuse for under staffing. On another note- our room had water leak around the window. The dripping noise was loud and the carpet wet but the accommodating staff quickly set us up in another room.

This hotel is lovely and perfectly located. The bed is super comfortable and the staff is very accommodating. You are basically steps from the water and there are so many shops and restaurants nearby. Next time we are in La Jolla, we will definitely stay at The Cormorant.

This hotel was right in La Jolla downtown. Everything was walkable, our room was on the first floor so we stepped out onto the sidewalk, which for us was a benefit. There was a table and chairs on a small area outside our door. The Birdseye restaurant had great drinks and delicious food (we dined there twice) and the view was spectacular.
