we stayed at the West Inn Carlsbad for three nights, and were very sad to leave. The service was prompt and polite but didnt feel forced or overdone. The included hot breakfast got us started each day on the right foot and saved money on eating out. West also has a bistro and upscale dining on the property, good but... more

Was in Carlsbad again on business and stayed at the West Inn as I usually do. This is my third stay and each time has been a wonderful experience. My room was very clean, the bed is always comfortable and the air conditioning works. Some hotels will show the temp at "65" but you know the actual is not even... more

The booking process was simple and staff were very efficient, friendly and helpful. There is a train track very close to the hotel, though we did not hear a thing when indoors. Cookies and milk were great in the evening. It is hardly 10 minutes from the beach. The room was clean, beds were extremely comfy. BReakfast was very good.... more

Score another "I see why it's #1 on TripAdvisor" review, as the West Inn & Suites was just perfect on our trip to Legoland with the kids. Beautiful, new place, amazingly huge rooms (we booked a Single King suite). We requested and got a crib for our littlest (there is a nook near the king bed where she was quite... more

There’s a reason the West Inn & Suites has been listed as Tripadvisor’s #1 hotel in the Carlsbad area, nearly everything about our visit was perfect. The staff was extremely friendly and the hotel is beautiful. Instead of being nickled and dimed to death, parking, wireless internet, and a USA Today were all complimentary, along with a very nice breakfast... more

After spending 4 nights in Anaheim/Disneyland at the Candy Cane Inn (another #1 here on tripadvisor). We headed south to Carlsbad to hit the other parks. Legoland, Wild Zoo, and Seaworld. Our stay here was great! It was me, my husband and our two sons ages 8 and 5. We got the basic room with the two king beds. Rm#... more

I spent 3 nights at the West Inn for business. After reading all of the fabulous reviews, I was really looking forward to my stay. I was a bit disappointed as my expectations had been set so high. I was put in a wheelchair accessible room; not sure why, since the hotel didn't appear to be full, based on the... more

My husband and I stayed with our 2 young daughters at this hotel for 3 nights. The hotel staff is so friendly. It definitely feels more like a boutique or family run hotel. Breakfast in included every morning and has a great selection: eggs, french toast, bagels, toast, waffles, cereal, oatmeal, juice, coffee, etc. The rooms are very well appointed.....clean,... more

Well, like the title says, I didn'tre really believe what had been written here. But then I stayed at the place. A wonderful experience. The most courteous staff I've ever encountered, including at 5 star resorts. They were helpful, but never intrusive. The beds are very comfortable. The rooms are not very large, but quite well laid-out. Huge showers and... more

I have stayed at the West in Carlsbad twice for business and I LOVE IT. There is not much to complain about, this actually gets really picky now: Location between I-5 and the train tracks is not ideal, but it guarantees quick access to the freeway. You cannot hear the traffic when inside, but the trains you can. Not a... more
