Stayed at this hotel for a quick weekend get away. Location is close to the outlet mall and right next to Legoland. Check-in was seamless- fast, friendly and efficient.The rooms are spacious, very clean with ample amenities. The balcony in each room with a view was a nice treat. The only negative is you can hear people's conversation, foot steps,... More

The good: Hotel is clean. Rooms are modern. Pool area is nice. Staff is freindly and helpful! The hotel provides some nice kid friendly activities thorughout the day. The middle: Only one restaurant on property. While the food is good and the kids prices are reasonable, the adult food is quite pricey. Other than coffee and donuts in the morning,... More

The Sheraton is Starwood's middle of the road brand (below St. Regis and W; roughly equivalent to Westin) so if you compare this hotel to other Sheraton hotels, it would probably rate highly. But if you compare this property to other resorts in Southern California, well, then you are setting yourself up for disappointment. To call the Sheraton Carlsbad a... More

I was not thrilled with having to stay at the Sheraton when I first heard that because of a colleague I "Had to" I have to say, it was beautiful, near lots of things, easy to the freeway and the restaurant was amazing! Usually hotel restaurants are not so good, but this place was hopping and great food! I prefer... More

When Legoland is high on your priorities then consider the Sheraton. Its a 4 min walk from your room and you are there. Our kids loved it and it was great to be able to stay right till closing then crash into our beds. Overall the hotel is brand new , solid 4 star with very good service (we arrived... More

You are there for legoland - that's it. Why anyone would stay here otherwise beats me. I never had much luck w/ attraction resorts so why expect anything more from this one. The rooms are average but clean, food is acceptable + over priced and overall service is spotty. There really is a private entrance to legoland - a bit... More

My husband and I stayed here after we got married across the street at The Crossings. It was comfortable. The only con about this place was their their lounge was dead. So when we tried to have an after party at their bar, it was so dead! With that said this place is located right next to the outlet mall... More

Had a last minute stay there and was a little overpriced. Great location for legoland which our kids (8 & 11) loved. Clean and reasonably sized rooms. More

More or less flawless accommodation when you are in the land of the Truman Show. Don't come without wheels (car). More

We had a fantastic two night stay at the Sheraton Carlsbad (12/18-20/2011) when we squeezed in a quick trip to Legoland with our two young sons. The friendly hotel valet greeted us right away with a warm smile and efficiently took care of our car and our bags. As we approached the front desk, the tall male clerk there greeted... More
