Meat-eaters should order the prime rib at the on-site restaurant—a house specialty.
DK Eyewitness "This 1926 inn was popular with Hollywood celebrities en route to holidays in Mexico in the 1920s and 30s. The original fixtures lend a delightful retro touch."
Rough Guide "This renovated apartment complex is a hundred years old. The stately hotel suites feature kitchens and pleasant, large sitting areas, and continental breakfast and wi-fi are free."
Lonely Planet "This 74-room gay-friendly place... used to be an apartment building, meaning mostly large rooms with kitchens, vast closets and early American decor." Full review

Be sure to have a cocktail while gazing at the ocean in Le Sala Lobby Lounge, and stroll the tiered gardens in back.
Lonely Planet "Among its 116 rooms, the ones in the main building are rather compact... but villas are spacious and in any case the property wins for Old Hollywood romance." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Since 1926, the “Pink Lady of La Jolla” has enchanted with its splendid Mediterranean ambience, exquisite decor, and ideal location on the cliffs above La Jolla Cove."
Rough Guide "This radiant pink favourite of Hollywood celebs in the 1920s is a slightly less glamorous spot today, but no less plush, with capacious rooms and suites and elaborate villas."
Michelin Guide "This 1926 landmark pastel-pink stucco palace is a statement of opulent beachside style. Palms surround the "Pink Lady of La Jolla," recognizable by its mosaic-tiled tower."
Star Service "At the social epicenter of La Jolla, this property remains the town's most atmospheric hotel, a prestigious and historic pink confection with a few additions tacked on over the years." Full review
Gayot "The seaside favorite of celebrities and world-travelers, La V (as locals call it) has been the place to be relax since the early 1920s when silent film stars flocked to this tranquil pink palace."
BlackBook "Old world-charm and a new outlook. Style and substance."
