HERE’S THE SCOOP

The La Valencia Hotel is fabulously romantic due to the Mediterranean design and décor that is elegantly pronounced from floor to floor with iron-trimmed balconies, hand-painted murals and mosaics and bougainvillea dotting the windows and gardens throughout. The rooms are spacious with postcard views of the Pacific Ocean or the lively goings on of the famous Prospect Street. The Pink Lady is in good company with neighboring Museum of Contemporary Art, the La Jolla Playhouse, The La Jolla Music Society, just to name a few. Planning a wedding can be an easy process as the La Valencia catering manager will be with you every step of the way. For the sophisticated bride, the outside vendor relationships are hand picked to be worthy of creating decorative enhancements for this stunning venue, though not many are necessary. Whether you are considering a destination wedding or honeymoon, this historic ‘jewel’ cannot be denied as one of the most romantic boutique hotels in the San Diego area.
