Top Museum of Making Music Hotel Reviews

Cape Rey Carlsbad Beach, a Hilton Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the Cape Rey Carlsbad Hilton resort. My main concern always is cleanliness and our room was super clean. I was very comfortable being there for 4 nights. The property in general is very clean and attractive. The pool area was really nice and we loved having poolside food and drink service. Each day they had a different treat such as sno-cones, cotton candy, etc. We were always able to find lounge chairs and the towels and iced drinking water were plentiful. The restaurant served delicious food. There is indoor and outdoor seating. We got our breakfasts to go and brought to our room. There’s a coffee station as well. We used the valet parking and our car was always quickly available. The beach is right across the street beyond an rv park. The best thing about the resort was the staff! Every single person we encountered was friendly and helpful, and made us feel like they were happy to help us. We will definitely stay there again!"

The Cassara Carlsbad, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The property is really wonderful if you're visiting Carlsbad area. It is well located, close to Legoland , and Carlsbad village is only 5 minutes away. The pool is clean and quiet, the breakfast is excellent and the rooms are spacious and nice. Our new favorite!!"

Westin Carlsbad Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"First time at this Westin in Carlsbad. Check-in was smooth and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Went to the room and it was on the first floor but also, once we opened the door, the smell of smoke was overwhelming. Called to the front desk which was answered by the hotel next door. They tried to help but ultimately couldn’t since I was requesting to move rooms. I was connected to the staff member in the Westin and she moved us to a 3rd floor room and it did not smell of smoke. We were only there for 1 night to celebrate my birthday. In the morning, 2 times the cleaning staff tried to come in the room. Luckily we had it double locked or else they would’ve walked right in. It was very strange since check out was at noon."

Ocean Front+ Theater Room +Hot Tub + Game Room

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice property in a great location. Ample room for an extended family of 19 people. Just two suggestions: Would like to have known about a second detached rental next to ours with other guests staying in it. Very nice people, but the parking was tight. The other suggestion is to make guests aware that there is an assortment of beach-related gear in the backyard storage, including umbrellas, chairs and boogie boards. Unfortunately, did not discover this until after we had rented other gear at one of the local beaches. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!"
