4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 May 2013 NEW

The only reason I didn't give this place 5 stars was the consistent musty smell in the room. Everything else was great. Nice room (3rd floor with a balcony view of the ocean), good quality flat screen TV, nice pool and hot tub, pretty good complimentary breakfast (esp. the fresh fruit, yogurt, and pastries). Very polite and professional staff. Close... More

Recently, we visited Carlsbad California for a family function and stayed at the Best Western Plus Beach View Lodge. When booking the stay, we just wanted to be down closer to the beaches so that when we had down time we could just walk to the water. The Beach View Lodge exceeded our expectations greatly! The property was DIRECTLY across... More

Nice little hotel just across the street from the beach. Most rooms on upper floors to accommodate covered parking for one car/room. There are also 2 ground level accessible rooms one of which was mine. All rooms overlook a small courtyard with a pool and hot tub. There are also several seating areas including a second floor patio overlooking the... More

The hotel is located across a park and the beach. Breakfast is served on a patio facing the ocean. Although the breakfast offering is not something to rave about, it is enough to fill you up until the next meal. There is also a swimming pool in the middle of the buildings and parking is very convenient. There is a... More

My wife and I stay here when we want to get away for a day or two. It's a short drive from San Diego, but it feels like we are in a resort far away. The hotel is across the road from the ocean and a short walk to Carlsbad village. Our deluxe room was spacious and had a fireplace... More

Room was nice, had 2 doubles. Nice swimming pool. Right across from the beach and near restaurants and shopping. Breakfast room has beautiful view of the ocean and a good variety of food. Would definitely stay here again.

This hotel may be a little dated but it is awesome. Convenient parking, heated pool, spa and a newly remodeled breakfast room with a view of the ocean. We had an oversized room with fireplace and kitchen that was as clean as any hotel room of any major brand. Walk across the street and you are on the beach. Restaurants... More

Very nice hotel with beach view from (community) patio sitting area. This hotel is ideally situated within walking distance to Carlsbad village, shops and restaurants.
