Hampton Inn Cardiff Beach Encinitas, CA

Staff are helpful & courteous. Rooms are clean & spacious with plenty of room to add an extra chair (suggested). Mini fridge, microwave, coffee in rooms. Free breakfast (6-10am daily) has several hot & cold options: make your own waffles, fresh eggs, meats, oatmeal yogurt, juices, & continental options. Staff ensure refills are plenty. Free coffee/tea all day. Great location to I-5 main highway but not noisy. Drawback to any CA hotel is nightly parking fee ($20) in addition to room rate. Daily room rate was reasonably priced for the area. Recommended & will return when visiting family in the area.

We had a pleasant stay at the Hampton Inn Cardiff. The location was good and felt safe, with clean rooms and easy access to the area. It’s within about an hour walk of the beach, which was a nice bonus. The pool was decent, and the fitness center was okay—enough to get a basic workout in. Breakfast was about a 6/10 in terms of selection, but it was still convenient. The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. A big plus is the Mexican restaurant next door, which was very good and less than a 3-minute walk. Overall, a solid and comfortable option in Cardiff

This is a really, nice Hampton Inn. I ended staying here for a business trip with my pup. The property is very accommodating of pets and their owners. The rooms are clean and spacious. There is a small pet relief area on site, but I ended walking the neighborhood. The hotel is easy to find - right off the freeway. There was not a lot of freeway noise. It was nice having a hot breakfast in the morning. I'd return again.

Positive: Location, although not walking distance to the beach or restaurants Negative: They had no computers or printer for me to use. I needed to print out agendas and plane tickets. I have never been to a hotel with that happening.

This has been one of the best hotel experiences I’ve had in California. I travel to San Diego at least 2-3 times a year for sports tournaments. It’s so nice to have an included breakfast with a wide variety of food options that begins at 6am every day of the week (eggs, sausage patties, potatoes, oatmeal, cereal, regular and soy milk, bananas and other fruit, yogurt, bread/bagels/muffins, waffles- 2 flavors daily- the normal waffle batter and an additional fun flavor, this week I’ve had s’mores, churro, and pumpkin spice). They also have a super convenient water bottle filler that also dispenses ice, and they have coffee out in the lobby all day. The staff are all so friendly and accommodating, the woman who was maintaining the breakfast area greeted every single guest as they came in. As
