Location
The Pacific Terrace Hotel is a stunning beachfront hotel, located right on the ocean in the heart of Pacific Beach. The location couldn't be better with easy access to the beach and a short walk to restaurants and shops. Guests rave about the convenience of the location and many note that it's the best hotel for being close to the beach. Not only is the proximity to the beach unbeatable, but the hotel also offers breathtaking ocean views. Many guests love having a room with a balcony and direct view of the Pacific. The staff is also known for being friendly and helpful. Whether you want to go on long walks by the ocean, have easy access to fantastic restaurants, or just relax next to the pool, the Pacific Terrace Hotel is the perfect place to stay.

Breakfast
Guests have mixed reviews of the breakfast at Pacific Terrace Hotel. Some have found it to be very good, tasty and that the selection is varied enough to meet their family's needs. The coffee is described as amazing and food at the pool was excellent with some deeming Ahi Poke as scrumptious. Conversely, others have noted the breakfast as cold, mediocre, poor and nasty-tasting. A handful of guests found the breakfast to be too expensive but would appreciate complimentary breakfast for the price paid. Some have noted issues with the breakfast space, layout and option to dine in-room only. To improve the breakfast experience, guests suggest offering a selection of food during happy hour, improving the bar area and having a restaurant space.

Rooms
If you're looking for a hotel with comfortable and beautiful rooms, Pacific Terrace Hotel is worth considering! Many guests have praised the hotel's rooms, which were just as advertised, spacious and well-appointed with solid gorgeous furnishings. The beds were clean and comfortable and some rooms even had kitchenettes stocked with actual silverware. Guests also enjoyed stunning views of the ocean from their rooms and could hear the waves crash from their balconies. However, some guests noted that the furniture, carpets and balcony furnishings were outdated and needed to be replaced. Some rooms were also noisy and deep cleaning was lacking in some cases, but the hotel's staff were quick to remedy any issues. Despite a few drawbacks, Pacific Terrace Hotel's rooms were overall a hit with guests and offered a comfortable and relaxing experience.

Beds
The Pacific Terrace Hotel is a great choice for travelers looking for a comfortable stay with excellent amenities. The hotel is located near plenty of restaurants and shops and the daily cookies and fruit provided add a special touch to the experience. While some guests have had issues with the wooden bed frames making it hard to get in and out of bed, overall the beds are reported as being comfortable and cozy. One guest did mention a problem with what they called "coffin beds," but this seems to be an isolated incident. The rooms with balconies and a direct view of the Pacific are highly recommended. While the bathrooms are on the small side, the comfort of the beds more than makes up for it. Some guests may prefer firmer pillows, but this is a minor quibble in an otherwise satisfying stay.

Cleanliness
The Pacific Terrace Hotel is a delightful, beachfront hotel that provides a comfortable and clean experience. The housekeeping service is outstanding, ensuring that the rooms are always very clean and well kept. Despite the property and facilities being a bit tired and in need of uplift, the pool and hot tub are clean and refreshing. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are spacious, making for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. While there were some minor issues with cleanliness, such as dirty carpets, dusty areas and outdated balcony furniture, these were remedied quickly upon request. Despite these minor issues, the hotel is the cleanest facility in the area, providing a beautiful view that complements the immaculately clean room. Additionally, the towel animals created by the roomkeeper added a delightful touch to the stay.

Staff
The Pacific Terrace Hotel is renowned for its amazing staff with impeccable service. The front staff, housekeeping and maintenance staff were exceptionally prompt, friendly and happy, making guests feel right at home. From courteous and professional concierge services to the meticulous housekeeping, the staff was always accommodating, making guests feel especially welcome. They were always available for any and everything required during the guests’ stay. The friendly and helpful staff, combined with excellent facilities, exceptional views and a prime location near the beach, makes this hotel highly recommended.

Pool
The Pacific Terrace Hotel's pool received mixed reviews with some guests praising the pool for its cleanliness and attractive appearance, especially at night. The heated pool and jacuzzi were also a plus for many. However, some guests found the pool area to be too crowded with fights over lounge chairs. Others were disappointed with the quality of food and drink service by the pool. Despite some negative reviews, most guests seemed satisfied with the pool area and its location with easy access and comfortable lounge chairs. The hot tub was also a popular feature. Overall, while the pool may have some flaws, it still served its purpose as a nice amenity for guests to enjoy while staying at the hotel.

Beach
The Pacific Terrace Hotel boasts an unparalleled location right on the beach, offering stunning ocean views and immediate access to the sand and surf. Guests love being able to borrow beach equipment such as chairs, umbrellas and boogie boards and many appreciated the hotel's provision of towels and even beverages for their beach outings. The hotel's terraces and balconies offer lovely views of the beachfront and are furnished with loungers for relaxation. Some guests noted that the section of beach directly in front of the hotel had some seaweed and sticks, but said that a short walk south led to white sandy beaches. While the quality of the beach itself varied depending on the time of year, guests consistently praised the hotel's unbeatable location and proximity to all the dining and entertainment options in the area.

Parking
The Pacific Terrace Hotel offers convenient and affordable Tiefgarage (underground parking) suitable for all car sizes. Guests appreciate the ease of finding parking in the basement and the added security it offers. Street parking can be hard to come by, so the hotel's garage offers peace of mind for those who bring their own vehicle. Some guests note that the parking fee is a bit pricey, at $28 per night, but this seems to be a minor issue considering the convenience and safety of the Tiefgarage. Overall, guests find the parking situation at the Pacific Terrace Hotel to be satisfactory and hassle-free. However, some guests were surprised by extra expenses, such as resort fees and parking, at the end of their stay. It's also worth noting that a partial ocean view incurs an extra fee. While some guests reported thin walls to neighboring rooms, the quality of the parking services overshadows any minor noise issues.

Family
Families looking for a great stay in San Diego should check out the Pacific Terrace Hotel. This hotel offers spacious family suites with ocean views that are perfect for families of all sizes. Upon arrival, guests are greeted with warm hospitality and may even receive an upgrade like we did. The hotel offers beach tools which my kids absolutely loved. They also went crazy over the afternoon cookies. The breakfast selection was varied and snacks were always available. The location of the hotel is perfect for families as it is close to the beach and amenities. We enjoyed a safe and relaxing stay in this family-friendly hotel where great customer service was provided. The only slight downside was the bed frames in the suite we stayed in. Overall, an amazing time was had by our family and we will definitely be coming back with the whole family.

Some guests mentioned that advanced room maintenance was not a priority and breakfast options could be better for a 5-star experience.

The Pacific Terrace Hotel is a delightful seaside hotel that grants its guests with an experience that is truly breathtaking. The outdoor pool at this hotel is truly awesome and has warm water. Besides this, the staff here is amazing and the guests have constantly appreciated the poolside drink and food service provided by the hotel. The pool is easily accessible and the walk-out patio provides guests with access to both the pool and the beach. The proximity to the pool and patio is fabulous and being able to sit outside is a great experience. It should be noted though, that the hotel does not offer dinner service.
