After three hours of drinking your way
through San Diego's craft breweries, you may
need to rest your spinning head (just saying).
And while there are many options for accom-
modations in the downtown core, as well as
the so-called "Hotel Circle" of Mission Valley,
undoubtedly the best bet for rest and relaxation
is La Jolla. The quaint and affluent suburb is
home to many of the region's top restaurants
and hotels and many of its prime outdoor
attractions (including Torrey Pines State
Reserve and La Jolla Cove).
Perhaps nothing captures the charming
seaside vibe better than La Valencia Hotel.
The circa 1929 property, with its mixture of
Spanish and Mediterranean influences, has a
beautiful outdoor pool, cascading courtyards
and the La Sala lounge and patio, with its
stunning views of the Pacific. The hotel's Med
restaurant also takes full advantage of the
locale, with a contemporary seafood-forward
menu under the direction of executive chef
James Montejano (make sure to order the
delectable paella with extra lobster). Perhaps
the hotel's greatest asset, however, is its
charming and resourceful concierge staff,
led by Nancy Hirsch. From brewery tours to
kayaking expeditions, Hirsch helps you make
the most of your time in the area.
