We stayed at the Empress for a weekend; we liked it a lot. The hotel is located on a side street about a block and a half from the main downtown area and two blocks from the cove, which made walking everywhere easy. We splurged and stayed in a suite. The suite we stayed in is two rooms--a living room... more

Just completed a week visit to La Jolla and San Diego and was quite pleased with my stay at the Empress Hotel. While not the newest of facilities, this property is well maintained and left me wanting for nothing. Congrats to the hotel staff for jobs well done. The front desk staff was more than pleasant an accommodating to all... more

Stayed at the Empress for three days before heading to Hawaii and found it great. The hotel is part of the Pacifica chain and you might check that site for best info. We chose based on trip advisor reviews and they were right on. Rooms are huge and those facing back have a sliding window for fresh air. High housekeeping... more

This hotel is an excellent value and provides top flight amenities. It is conveniently located in La Jolla, a short walk from the fine restaurants and shops in the city. A brief (twenty five minute) drive from the San Diego airport and you are there! Friendly staff, courteous and complementary valet parking, free wifi and a well equipped business room,... more

Warmly greeted when I arrived and was shown to a lovely room with a view of the village street below. The room was well appointed , clean and welcoming as was the bath. The location couldn't have been more convenient to shopping and dining and only minutes from the beach and other attractions. I will definately stay here again when... more

I have nothing but good things to say regarding the Empress hotel. I stayed there the weekend of my wedding. Their event coordinator is extremely knowledgeable and did all sorts of little things to make our lives easier, from giving us updates on people who had reserved rooms as part of our wedding to making sure our guests were grouped... more

This was a girls' weekend trip. We got 2 rooms next to each other as requested. They were spacious and had nice sitting areas for us to congregate in without having to lay on the beds. Location was perfect - away from the crowds, but close enough to walk to all. The water was just a few short blocks away... more

This hotel is located walking distance to everything in downtown La Jolla, including the ocean. We were very happy with the staff. The price was reasonable for La Jolla. My only complaint is the parking, because you have to valet at the hotel. The staff would get the car very fast though so it made it easy. The room was... more

Hi All, just my 2 cents....We were visiting SD Zoo and Wild Animal Park in September, driving down from LA with 2-year old twin girls...and, at the last moment, decided to stay over and spent Sunday in SD as well.....We called Empress at 9.00pm, and, even though their website said they were all sold out, they were able to accomadate... more

I am very particular about where I stay and how clean hotels are. My boyfriend and I stayed 2 nights here and wished we stayed longer. The bathroom was spotless and the room was more than adequate. The hotel staff was very courteous and helpful. La Jolla is a nice town, lots of good restaurants and nice people. We did... more
