This used to be our go-to hotel in the Carlsbad area. This was our first visit since the pandemic began and unfortunately, the hotel has gone far downhill, so much so that I can't see staying here again in the future. Overall the staff was friendly and accommodating, but some of them not so much. There was a mix up with our room and the staff rectified it pretty easily (thank you), but I might have been caught sooner had their email system been working. I made two reservations and never received confirmation of either, I called them several times to let them know the emails were not coming through but nothing was done about it (yes I am sure it did not go to spam), and other confirmations I made for a return trip to the area for a different hotel came through just fine. The carpets, both in the lobby and in the rooms is filthy. Looks like it has never been cleaned. There were fingerprints on everything in the room. The towels felt like sand paper, they had that hang dried feeling, not as if they were put in the dryer, they were not fluffy at all. The sheets on the pull out sofa bed actually had holes in them. Also, upon check in the attendant indicated that our room would be cleaned a couple of days after we arrived. I assumed we could request more frequent service but when we did so, we were told that the room would ONLY be cleaned one day. After a bit of back and forth the staff relented. They said this rule was due to covid, but none of the hotel staff were wearing masks. If this is going to be your policy please let me know when the reservation is being made, not during check in. I would have booked a reservation elsewhere had I known this. This is not acceptable for a 4 night stay and I have stayed at other hotels in the area that are fully servicing rooms in the last year. Also, the front and back parking lot was nearly empty our entire stay and I saw very few guests in the hotel. The staff seems overworked, I saw the same 3-4 faces during our entire stay. Calls to the front desk were not answered. Most of the time, we received a call back shortly after except for one morning when no one answered the phone, so we walked to the front desk to find the person on duty asleep. The safe in the room was broken and the front desk attendant did not know how to re-set it. There were some pros - the king sized beds are still the most comfortable hotel beds I have slept in, they still serve breakfast, the hotel is in a nice location and there is a gas station on site. These are nice perks but not enough for us to return to this hotel. So sad to see this place suffer due to poor maintenance and low staff numbers, but we will find other accommodations when we come back to Carlsbad. We visit at twice once per year for around ten years at this point.

Sheraton Carlsbad Resort & Spa

Perfect family-oriented hotel in Carlsbad

Reviewed By michaelj726

The Sheraton is an ideal family hotel. Our suite had a king bed and a separate bedroom with two twins. The hotel is immediately adjacent to the Westin (whose facilities are available to Sheraton guests), a golf course and Legoland. The bed was comfortable and it was very quiet after 10:00 p.m. The room was adequately appointed; not a five-star resort by any stretch, but comfortable. The fitness center is small and minimal. The pool is a nice size and the slide is popular with the kids. Note that as of this writing, the hotel does not provide daily housekeeping service. The hotel is a little over a mile from the beach. Plentiful free parking close to the rooms is a plus.

Pretty grounds. Don’t go here unless you’re bringing kids

Reviewed By Mike M

It’s probably a great place if you’re bringing a family. We were looking for a relaxing escape, but couldn’t get that. We tried eating at the restaurant Vue, but the smell was completely unacceptable. We tried moving to their other restaurant, Bob, but they couldn’t accommodate us. It was missing the cat-piss aroma of Vue, but also didn’t seem very high end with a high percentage of customers under the age of 10. I would try someone else if you’re looking for relaxation.

Not a good idea

Reviewed By Dawnmcc60

The pictures of this hotel are definitely not accurate. Beds are horrible. Scratchy sheets, pillows are terrible. Don't stay here. Loud highway traffic. The best thing you can do is spend the extra money and stay at a reputable chain hotel.
