Description: Just east of the ocean communities of Solana Beach and Del Mar, the Doubletree Hotel Del Mar offers 220 luxuriously appointed rooms and 12 suites, all oversize and warmly decorated. Rooms come with everything from coffeemakers to two-line phones with modem hookups. Wheelchair-accessible and nonsmoking rooms are available. Along with that fresh-baked chocolate chip cookie you’ll receive at check-in, you’ll be able to relax even if you’re visiting on business. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served in the hotel’s restaurant and on the patio. There is an exercise room and outdoor pool. Families love the children’s activities and separate wading pool. Within minutes, guests can be splashing in the Pacific or swinging a golf club at one of the many courses in the area. The hotel is near the Del Mar Fairgrounds and racetrack, too. There is complimentary shuttle service within a 6-mile radius of the hotel.
