Best Western Inn by The Sea La Jolla

La Jolla, a well-to-do oceanfront community of 30,000 people, lies 12 miles north of San Diego. The Inn by the Sea occupies a central spot in downtown La Jolla with the hotel less than two blocks to the beach and a block to La Jolla's main shopping streets. There are over 40 restaurants within a five block radius of the hotel--including a Hard Rock Cafe across the street. Can't go wrong here with all rooms designated non-smoking and each with a balcony. Quite a few rooms have ocean view. www.bestwestern.com
