Sonesta ES Suites San Diego - Sorrento Mesa

Location was convenient and breakfast was nice

Great suites, good size and fully equipped for everything we needed. Extremely comfortable beds and big fluffy towels! Having a gym was a great bonus. Staff were very friendly and welcoming.

I enjoyed my 13 nights at Sonesta ES Suites, Sorrento. Pros: Spacious studio room with very comfortable Queen bed, 4 plush pillows, full kitchen with large, quiet refrigerator. Hide-a-bed which doubled as a comfortable couch. Desk, office chair and fast Wi-Fi, 2 small coffee tables, large TV. My room (#322) looked south, onto palm trees and the pool. A/C worked well and was quiet. Parking ($10/day) offered spaces with morning or afternoon shade. Good hot breakfast, with egg & meat dishes, sometimes potato pancakes or sautéed vegetables. Fruit (usually bananas, oranges and apples). Oatmeal and toppings. Sweet pastries, breakfast cereals, yogurt. Decaf and regular coffee. 2% milk. 30 ft long heated pool, open 08-22h, in which I swam laps. I liked the staff, who were friendly and efficient. Owing to my low energy level caused by my liver problem, they let me check out 7 days early on only 12 hr notice, without penalty. The hotel was good value, with luxurious accommodation. It was as good as the Residence Inn (Marriot) in Sorrento and the Homewood Suites (Hilton) in Carlsbad, where my wife and I stayed in Feb/March this year.

The hotel over all was great. Our room was really comfortable the staff was friendly and helpful. The only downfall was they were remodeling and parking was a little tight. And breakfast was to go only. But the room rate was a little lower then normal to reflect the inconvenience.

The front desk was always very welcoming. Breakfast each day was delicious and there was a good mix of healthy food choices. The location was great to get to multiple locations while we were there.
