Top Emerald Hills Hotel Reviews

Paradise Point Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We paid a pretty penny for this place because of all the amenities, however, you have to pay another pretty penny just to use them."

California Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"At first look I was not overly thrilled but once we settled in our stay for the price was very nice. If you’re looking for an affordable hotel that’s clean this is your place. The hotel is a little on the older side but it’s clean and they take care of the property. My kids enjoyed swimming everyday in the pool, which was also clean. There are restaurants and shopping close by. A great brewery/restaurant a few feet from the property that you can walk to. They offered free ice cream, coffee and tea in the lobby."

The Dana on Mission Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Our 5 day stay at the Dana was awesome. The grounds are well kept and beautiful. The staff were all so friendly. The Firefly restaurant was delicious and so convenient. Being on a marina the views are amazing especially the stunning sunsets. You can rent bikes , kayaks and jet skis for a fee. The pools were refreshing. The rooms were very clean and they replenished the towels each day. Some say the rooms are outdated a bit but didn’t bother us. You’re on vacation, in the rooms to sleep. Our king size bed and the pillows were comfy . They have a free shuttle that took us to SeaWorld and back….that was cool. We loved our stay and had no complaints. We will be back again."

Lafayette Hotel & Club

10/10 Excellent

"If you love over the top, bougie decor and fabulous customer service The Lafayatte is a must stay at hotel!! We had a girls weekend, had so much fun and the ambiance is just beyond amazing!! You can spend an entire vacation in the hotel with the different restaurants, bars, bowling, pool etc!! We are going to make it an annual trip!!"
