Not bad for a lobby bistro. Attentive staff. There are fruit flies all around the seating area that make it difficult to relax and enjoy your food and drink.

I took a chance to stay at this hotel and it was a mistake. Everything about this hotel needs a face lift. It feels like a cheap motel in an 80's movie. Also, I mistakenly thought Titanium or other elite members would get complementary waters. The front desk person really gave me a lesson when I asked for a small bottle of water. My advice to fellow travelers, if you want to stay with the Marriott brand in the area, go to Marriott La Jolla a couple of miles away. A little more expensive, but much more pleasant and in a better location.

I love staying at the Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Sorrento Valley Hotel. The staff are very friendly, the rooms are clean, the grounds are beautiful, the pool and hot tub are beautiful and clean, and the Bistro in lobby has delicious food and drinks!

Beautiful and amazing super friendly service. Stunning landscape! I didn’t have any food while I was here but every thing looked amazing and all the staff had huge smiles on their faces as every single one greeted me while I was walking around. Greet place to get some laptop work done!

Very helpful staff. Convenient to dine and relax while you stay at the hotel.

The rooms were very nice. Small balcony for each of the second and third floor rooms. Has a nice little café and bar, but the bar has a very limited drink menu. I only ate breakfast at the café, but I did try all of the breakfast menu items. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Uncomfortable bed which gave me a backache, housekeeping services every 4 days unless you request it, ran out of shower gel and shampoo, room wasn't super clean. Bathroom sink so clogged up I simply used the bathtub to clean up and brush my teeth. Maintenance did correct the issue. When I asked for more shampoo and shower gel I did get a short refill. Balconies are REALLY tiny. Surprise after my trip that I had to pay for parking! This was a pre-paid in full business trip and the fact that you had to pay for parking was an after-the-fact unhappy update. I didn't even have a vehicle the entire time.

Wonderful hotel !! It is very clean and we absolutely loved our stay here. It is close to a lot of different things. The 2 room suite was amazing !! The only thing I didn’t care for was having to pay for parking, when you’re staying there, you shouldn’t have to pay for parking.

this is a nice hotel, with a beautiful pool, and has a very good hotel service as well. The gym is very complete and only allows 2 people because of covid guidelines. The location is also very good, there is a McDonalds very near the hotel, and you can also eases to a beautiful beach by foot.
This is a nice, clean hotel with a beautiful social area and pool in the center. The room was very nice and surprisingly quiet. The parking is cheap for the area at $12/day. The bed was even comfortable. I would give it 5 stars BUT the restaurant was closed, the parking lot is in rough shape and, at the time, there was no place to eat at within a few miles on a Sunday afternoon except McDonalds. To nitpick, the kid sized bathtub was unexpected, and a little strange. IF everything were to open back up in the area and they repaved the parking, it would be a nice resort in the northern San Diego area.

Stayed here while in town for a wedding. Overall a good stay, quiet area of San Diego with most of the offices being closed. Pros: Quick and easy access to the 805 and 5 freeways Friendly staff Nice outdoor pool and indoor jacuzzi AC actually stays on all night, able to get room nice and cold. Bistro has a decent amount of menu items available for breakfast (more than other local Courtyards). Cons: Pillows are the flattest I have ever slept on. Neck hurt every morning. If sensitive sleeper, bring your own. Charging 12.99 a day for parking. It's a Courtyard in an office park with tons of parking. Zero reason for this except as a money grab for people who expense their hotel rooms to a company or client. Overall: I would stay here again ONLY if the parking fee was removed or waived for elites. Sheer money grab in Covid times.

We stayed at the Courtyard for 3 night. The hotel was very clean and staff was helpful and friendly. Brent at the front desk was great. A few tips: do not get a room facing the road, it is noisy when the slider door is open. However with the door is shut you do not hear any noise. The gym only allows 2 people with current Covid guidelines. This was great for my husband and I as we had the gym to ourselves. The Starbucks in the lobby closes at 9:30am on weekdays. However the rooms had coffee makers with cream and sugar (so nice to have them as many hotels have not brought them back yet). There is a McDonalds, Chick Filet and convenient store within the walking distance. Overall we were very impressed with the cleanliness and well kept amenities of the property.

The Courtyard Sorrento is absolutely fine for a short business trip. We stayed there for 2 nights. The lobby area has been updated like many other Marriott properties. The rooms are ok but could also benefit from a refresh. We stayed during pandemic restrictions so there was no dining or bar facilit8es available. In the mornings the Starbucks affiliate coffee bar is available and in the evenings the mini-store has beer, wine and some limited food options.

I am recovering from surgery and cannot get around without assistance. Therefore it is vial I be able to communicate with people for food, medicine, transportation. First, if you call they charge $6 per minute. OK, so they rip you off. Why call when everyone has a cell phone, because there is no signal in the hotel. Order a pizza and its $6 to $18 for the call. Now it gets really fun. If someone calls the room, the room gets charged $6 a minute for incoming calls. I really don't think this is legal and I will be calling a lawyer to see if a class action suit is possible. They say they have Wi-Fi internet for the rooms, but there is so little bandwidth you can't even make a skype call or send a skype text. So the only choice you have is to pay $6 per minute to communicate with the outside world.
