Sonesta ES Suites San Diego - Sorrento Mesa

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.

Everything, people were very nice. Wanted to spend another night. Very very good night. Even the breakfast hit the spot for my family.

I really liked how spacious and clean the rooms were. I also liked the full size refrigerator and kitchen. I also thought the breakfast had really good options, even though it wasn't a buffet. The staff was very helpful. When I asked for extra towels and coffee, they were always accommodating. I also liked it was only 20 minutes both ways to our destination so it was a great location if you are going to the San Diego Zoo and San Diego Safari Park.

Every member of the staff that I encountered was friendly and gracious. The availability of breakfast was nice as well and having a gym and especially laundry room on sight was ideal. My room had everything that I needed.

Room was comfortable, spacious and clean. Breakfast was very good and well above the expectations of “included breakfast option”. highly recommend for San Diego stay, especially if you’re interviewing at one of the companies within a couple of miles of the hotel. there’s quite a variety of food places within a 10 min drive.
