Top Carlsbad Museum & Art Center Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"Very pleasant hotel, with friendly staff, exceptional hospitality, and we especially appreciated the water and coffee available in the lobby."

Stevens Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Large room, no stairs"

Fiddler's Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Quiet, clean, convenient street parking. Provided breakfast vouchers to a nice cafe nearby! In the room we stayed the shower head may need to be cleaned or replaced as it sprayed water all over."

Hyatt House Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms. Nice people"

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Carlsbad

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and the hotel and parking lot seemed safe. Breakfast was decent for what it was. The bed was quite uncomfortable but I don’t like most hotel beds. I felt for the price it could have been a bit better but it may have just been that it was a weekend and there was some other activities in town going on it seemed."

Post Time Inn

8/10 Good

"Clean room. Nice staff."

Delightful 2-bedroom house with AC in sunny Carlsbad and river view.

8/10 Good

"The rooms were clean, host was extremely helpful. The only recommendation would be to have a list with information about Wi-Fi passwords, and contact details. Since this place is pet friendly, I'd recommend securing the fence (bottom) to prevent pets from leaving the property."

Cozy little home "West of the Pecos".

10/10 Excellent

"The house was a great place to stay. It was very clean and quiet. It had all the amenities and more that a person could hope for. I would definitely like to stay here again."
