I wasn't expecting much out of a hotel cafe but I was pleasantly surprised with how delicious the breakfast was here. I had avocado toast with two sunny side up eggs on top. The eggs were cooked perfectly, and I find most sunny side up eggs to be cooked with too much runny white albumin. This was not the case, the edges were crispy and the yolk was still medium. I also tried some of my friend's red potatoes and they were such a highlight. Cooked soft in the middle and crispy on the outside with salt and rosemary. They were exceptional. I also want to give a shout out for the service, the woman who was running the register was friendly and helpful.

Since this cafe is on the premises of the Best Western Del Mar Hotel, we had breakfast here for two mornings. This is a small cafe that is on the premises of the hotel. The staff were very courteous, friendly, and the food was good. Very standard breakfast fare, but a good option if you do not want to walk to other bakeries or coffee shops for breakfast. The food was a little pricey. We had standard fare items like burritos and toast on one day and pancakes and bagels on another but on both days it cost us more than $25 for two people. Good option since there's not a lot other in the area.

Food is petty mediocre. Mac and cheese was Kraft’s instant.

We stayed at the BW Premiere in Del Mar and gave the Cafe Del Mar on-site a try. What a hidden gem. It is a little store and Cafe, but the food is excellent and it sits adjacent to the patio at the hotel. Lots of local folks stopped by for coffee during their morning hike. We got a fruit bowl and a breakfast burrito. Both were fresh and tasty. And the price was incredibly reasonable. Five stars for the service and food. I gave four stars for the atmosphere because it is just a little storefront, but do not let that deter you.

Highly recommend the powerhouse burrito (we subbed the bacon for sausage) and acai bowl! Both has great portions and delicious. Staff were always friendly.

This hotel is older but remodeled. The rooms are clean fresh and very nice. The pool area is well kept. The staff is awesome. They all talk to you and help whenever they can. The front desk goes out of their way to make sure you are satisfied. Make you feel like family. Beds are comfortable microwave or stove and fridge In every room. Ocean view on one side pool on other. Love this place. It is convenient to town,ocean,golf and race track.
We were so extremely happy with this hotel! We’ve stayed in Del Mar before, and had been eyeing this one, and decided to try it this time & we’re so happy we did! Every piece of our stay was fantastic! The location is perfect, right by a lot of food, shops and the beach. The view is spectacular! It’s very safe, quiet and clean. It has a nice pool/jacuzzi as well. The staff was wonderful. I can’t say enough nice things about this hotel! It’s a fantastic place to stay for any reason! This will definitely be our place to stay whenever we are in the area! Thank you Best Western!

Our family has always enjoyed The Del Mar Inn for the last 40 years. We greatly appreciate the wonderful room refinements and decor while maintaining the property in the quaint decor that Del Mar is known for.

The location is amazing a very walkable to shops, food options and the beach - we loved the area! We also enjoyed the very hot jacuzzi after a chilly beach day, but didn’t check out other amenities. The room was pretty tiny, but decent and we could see the ocean from our balcony. The bathroom was great and virtually spotless and the closet/ wet bar was a great touch and very appreciated too. The downfall was the group of drunk girls screaming, barely able to walk and slamming doors at 1-3 am. So much so that we didn’t sleep much after that and it pretty much ruined the stay. If you’re a light sleeper, consider staying on the third floor (you can hear your upstairs neighbors) and ask to be on an end - we were across from the elevator, which can be heard. Had we have slept, we probably would’ve loved it.

This hotel was very pretty when we pulled in. The pool is beautiful they have a nice fire pit. Tim the front desk manager was very pleasant and helpful. We were very happy with our room it was spacious clean nicely decorated and not brown like every other hotel. The bathroom was very large with a great shower in glass and long counter with double sinks. There was a full length mirror and also a mirror over the table type desk which makes it easier for more than one person to be getting ready at the same time. The bed was very good. We were on the third floor which I highly recommend so you can look out over the ocean. The balcony is very tiny with just two chairs and a little coffee table but at least it is there. We drove to the beach and found easy parking. You could walk to it but if you’re carrying stuff it is too far for us. We love the beach with the gentle waves. We saw many dolphins. The water was very cold even in the end of July. We would come to this hotel anytime we’re in Delmar or anywhere near it. So many restaurants nearby. We loved chins the Chinese restaurant and Del Mar Seaside Mediterranean and Mexican restaurant which are really close to the hotel. There is a dog park next-door. You will be happy if you stay here. The little kitchen in a closet was so helpful with the tiny fridge and sink and microwave.Also there was a decent size closet and luggage rack which you don’t find enough of in a lot of these hotels in this area.

I’ve stayed here periodically for the last five years. The hotel is in a great location with nice comfortable rooms. The staff are very helpful, friendly & accommodating. Free parking on site & a nice restaurant for breakfast & lunch. Easy check in & check out. Plenty of restaurant choices in walking distance. Close to the beach.
