Pacific Terrace Hotel

Took hubby for a night away for his 71st bday and found this gem
The staff at the cafe went way above treating him to a piece of cake and a round of “Happy Birthday to you” 🎼 Can’t wait to go back 😁

Great service and excellent location.

Great service and cafe/restaurant!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Absolutely Unforgettable Weekend — The Perfect Place to Celebrate Everything at Once!
We came to The Terrace Hotel for what turned out to be the most milestone-packed weekend of our lives — our daughter's law school graduation, my birthday, AND our 30th wedding anniversary, all rolled into one incredible trip. I honestly wasn't sure any hotel could rise to that occasion. This one exceeded every expectation.
From the moment we walked through the door, the front desk team made us feel like VIPs. Johnny, Alexa, and Devin were warm, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic about our celebrations — not in a scripted way, but in a way that felt personal and sincere. They set the tone for the entire stay.
Maddi, Kaya, and Sergio went absolutely above and beyond. Their service was thoughtful, professional, and truly added to the magic of the weekend. It's rare to encounter a team where every single staff member seems to genuinely love what they do — this hotel has that.
The pool was a highlight — perfectly heated, spotlessly clean, and just the right place to unwind after a big day of celebrating. We spent hours there and never wanted to leave.
Thirty years of marriage, a brand-new lawyer in the family, and a birthday to boot — and The Terrace Hotel made every single moment feel special. We will absolutely be back, and we will be recommending this place to everyone we know. Thank you for helping us celebrate the best weekend we've had in years!

We loved, loved, loved that music wasn’t blaring poolside so that you could actually hear the ocean!!

It was an amazing stay at the hotel! Located on a beautiful Pacific beach made it so much easier for everyday relax! The staff was soooo nice ! Every single person was amazing and kind and smiling ! Rooms top and beds and bed sheets oooh that was coooo comfy! Very good parking possibilities ! The view is insane ! LOVE IT !!! 🫶🏻

Beachfront hotel with the most helpful friendly staff you can imagine, spacious lovely well appointed rooms, access to a delicious little café inside the hotel, easy access to beach and poolside— pricey but a truly special stay… price of room varies from day to day… easy stroll to little beach restaurants and bars.

This was an awesome hotel for our family vacation, very laid back neighborhood beautiful beach, and the hotel had several amenities that were not listed, beach chairs,umbrellas, beach toys, and bikes with helmets

We had an amazing experience at Pacific Terrace Hotel. The property is situated right on the beach front in a great location, close walking distance to cafes, bars and restaurants in Pacific Beach and close to La Jolla. The rooms were very clean and spacious. The pool area and terrace was excellent for relaxing and enjoying the sunset. Above all else, the staff were exceptional. They were very professional and friendly, and always willing to help and provide recommendations on things to do. To Mason at the front desk and Maddy in the Terrace Cafe, thank you for your hospitality and warmth, you truly made our visit to San Diego and we will be back!

My hubby and I stayed here for our anniversary and it was wonderful. The rooms overlooking the ocean are priceless.

We just returned from a stay at Pacific Terrace Hotel, and it was one of those experiences that stays with you long after you leave.

From the moment we arrived, the tone was set. We were greeted with genuine warmth and kindness, and the team went above and beyond to get us settled early so we could start enjoying the property right away. Being able to relax by the pool before check-in was such a thoughtful touch.

When we made it to our room, we were welcomed with champagne and a beautifully romantic setup. It immediately felt like we were somewhere special. Throughout our stay, every single interaction with staff reinforced that feeling; everyone was friendly, attentive, and seemed to truly care about our experience.

We also enjoyed the food and drinks, including room service, which were consistently excellent. The oceanfront setting is stunning on its own, but what really makes this hotel stand out is the level of service and attention to detail.

One of our favorite moments came at the very end of our stay. As we were leaving, valet had placed cold bottled waters in our car. It was such a simple gesture, but it perfectly summed up the entire experience; thoughtful, intentional, and genuinely caring.

We’ve stayed at many hotels, and this one truly stands out. We’ll definitely be back.

Our stay at the Pacific Terrace Hotel was nothing short of exceptional. Every staff member we encountered was friendly, warm, accommodating, and genuinely helpful. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and well cared for.

The view from our room was absolutely out of this world. Truly breathtaking and being just steps from the beach made the entire trip feel magical. The hotel grounds were spotless, beautifully maintained, and inviting in every way.

Even though our visit happened to be on the chillier side, the heated pool was such a treat. After long days of exploring San Diego, relaxing in the warm water was exactly what we needed.

Our room was spacious, extremely comfortable, and thoughtfully appointed. The beds were incredibly cozy, and we slept so well each night. Having beach gear readily available was a huge bonus, especially since we were traveling by plane and couldn’t bring those items with us.

This was our son’s first trip to San Diego for his 10th birthday, and Pacific Terrace helped make it unforgettable. We will definitely be returning. In fact, we’re already planning a trip back this fall for my birthday.

Pacific Terrace Hotel exceeded every expectation. Highly, highly recommended.

Beautiful location! Great friendly staff. Beautiful appointed rooms, really comfortable beds. Balcony with a great view! Really nice hot tub ...hot! Can't wait to come back!
