Pacific Terrace Hotel

Located between Mission Bay and swanky La Jolla, the beachfront Pacific Terrace Hotel seduces its guests with breathtaking ocean views and comfortable accommodations. Recent visitors say the staff pampers you like royalty. The hotel's easy accessibility to San Diego sights, like SeaWorld, makes it appeal to families as well. But you should note that The Pacific Terrace Hotel doesn't have an on-site restaurant or spa. Many guests do seem content to splash around in the on-site pool, though.
