Les Artistes Inn

Beautiful inn, gorgeous room, and view! We would absolutely stay here again! The owner is incredibly lovely and helpful. We felt very cared for.

Absolutely stunning property! Beautiful room and view! Very relaxing stay. Will definitely be back!

We had a delightful stay! It was a little difficult for my ordered husband to get out of bed as the bed was really low, but we managed. Cute room on second level! Parking was no problem!

Quiet with tranquil garden and water fountains were beautiful. Morning coffee or tea available. Caretakers were amazing and very kind. Close to ocean/beach.

Room with an ocean view, caretakers were amazing and kind. Gardens, water fountains and little places to sit amount them. I will stay there again.

Room was very comfortable and airy. Ocean breeze and quiet. Close to the freeway so easy access.

This hotel was one that’s off the beaten path. It doesn’t follow the norms of regular high-end hotels or less quality motels. It is almost like a beautiful peaceful escape from the norm. My room was incredible. I loved it. It felt like I was in another country or on a grand vacation it was peaceful quiet, and that’s just the type of environment you want to be in if your visiting just to have a relaxing vacation or here to work and would like a sanctuary if you’re looking for that, this is a five star, relaxing, quiet hotel it’s truly a gem and one of a kind.

The service and property need to be improved.

A little gem of a hotel. Each room a true work of art! A place to unwind, unplug, and just "be." Walking distance to everything.

Great location, great owner who takes pride in her design and orignally unique hotel

Great place and would stay again!

Very cozy

Very quiet, clean and a very beautiful stay

Pictures were deceiving. This place is run down, dingy and dirty with some bad aromas. We left without staying over

Friendly and helpful staff, clean room that feels like a casita and comfortable bed.

They weren’t as pet friendly as I’d hoped but we were able to work it out. The soaps in the shower were kind of icky and the sheets probably need to be replaced more frequently. The website said there was a hot tub but I didn’t see one, but I also didn’t ask.

Hidden gem in Del Mar. I stayed in the Diego Rivera room, which has a nice-sized kitchen area and looks out toward the ocean. The jetted tub was heavenly! The staff is just wonderful, and the morning coffee at the check-in window a nice touch. I walked to the beach and all down the main road very easily. Highly recommend!

Overall a really cute place however they did not have our hotels.com reservation they said. We ended up getting a non-artist room which is the whole reason why we booked here so my daughter who is an artist could enjoy the intricacies at an artist room. Also because of close proximity to neighbors there was yard work beginning around 7:30 a.m. And it kind of continued on until 9:30 30/10:00 a.m. We're late sleeper so that wasn't ideal for us.

Loved this space! Owners were great. Room was very unique! Great amenities.

Great location. No screens on doors, no black out curtains. Stayed 2 night but did not want to refresh the towels on the second day and when finally agreed only brought one clean towel. Very hard bed. Ac did not work.

The room and the hotel overall was quaint and perfect.

This is an old and architecturally funky property, blending traditional Mexican and Asian elements. The bed was comfortable, the pricing was reasonable, and there was plenty of free parking. It is close to all the shops and restaurants, and walkable to the beach.

Such a gorgeous and humble property conveniently located around things to do. The owners are a wonderful couple with very good taste in interior and exterior design. I will be back for sure.

This hotel is a real find. The location is in walking distance to the beach and town. It has a funky charm and was clean and inviting. Each room is named after an artist and is decorated with that particular artist’s work. It is a no-frills place but has a fun vibe and you can’t beat the price.

Enjoyed our stay for the eclectic feel and good location! Cleanliness left a bit to be desired. Outside table and chairs were dirty with melted, dried food on it. The provided robes were a nice touch, but alas they were dirty. The sink dripped constantly making it hard to sleep and the floors could use a good mopping.

The staff was great, the room was nice but easily could have been better. First, I noticed the ceiling fan was very dusty so I was afraid to turn it on and possibly blow dust around the room. Also noticed dust and cobwebs a few other places (like the ceiling and skylight I was staring directly up at). Then, I noticed the microwave front didn't looked wiped down, buttons with fingerprints. Lastly, the refrigerator was turned off. If you know anything about refrigerators, the one thing you shouldn't do is turn it off. I opened a stinky, humid refrigerator with specks of mold. Turning the refrigerators off must be common practice between stays because I saw other reviews with complaints of moldy refrigerators. Overall, nice people, nice area, nice view from my room; would only visit again if they cleaned a little better.

Proximity to town was great. Cute little spot for an overnight. A bit dated but clean and cozy.

Very unique property. Oasis in a city. Amazing sound of fountains and crackling fire in the one of a kind outdoor fire place. Artwork in every corner. Will definitely come back.

Everything was ok, clean, Friendly staff but there were some strange noises at night that seemed like rodents in the room walls. There needs maybe a refresh of things on the common areas. It was ok for one night.

This is a wonderful experience, for anyone who enjoys an esthetic immersion. The patio/entry is a lovely indoor-outdoor layout, with fountains and seating areas very conducive to lingering at chatting. The room I was in was extensively and thoughtfully decorated per the theme (Zen) and lived up to its vibe. Walking the nearby downtown was a very chill morning vibe, adding nicely to the experience. I really recommend this for anyone liking a quaint and homey feeling. If you want polish and glitz, look elsewhere, and save the room for someone who loves this.

Felt like a home from home. Such beautiful details and so clean! A refreshing change from the normalized hotel experience.

My husband and I had a great anniversary here. The owners went above and beyond making us feel right at home. The place has a lot of character they did a great job creating a place where you feel like your in another country. Very beautiful vibes.

The staff was lovely. The bed was so comfortable, the linens so soft and luxurious. The property was quirky and dated, but everything else was GREAT and it was a fantastic price for the area.

The place was so cute. Like a jungle retreat. Door open, ocean breeze all night. Wonderful handmade touches and always happy when a hotel has no carpet.

There were ants in the second floor room I was in. They gave me a stained bedspread with a big hole to put on the bed since I had a dog ( not super pet friendly). There were spider webs in the common area. The skylight didn’t have a shade with a remote (they make them), so it was super bright first thing in the morning. Oh and the picture of the nude woman above the bed in the room next door was distasteful.

Sort of a funky place that is charming and eclectic. Bed was very comfortable, room was clean and quiet. We had the garden view room and while the garden is small it’s very nice. Only had a couple of suggestions for improvement- the hair dryer did not work and please consider putting 2 hooks on the back of the bathroom door - there is NO place to hang bath towels to dry. Also, there was no bottled water in the little fridge (which was not plugged in) and no where to get one at check in. Would be nice for you to have two bottles on the table in the room. This is a comfortable place to stay and different from a sterile chain hotel!

Each room was personally crafted and curated, in addition to the number of details the owners had thought of to ensure guests' comfort. It was quiet, clean, and housekeeping was spotless I would stay again!

My BF and I enjoyed everything about our stay. We booked the private room with the jacuzzi. The location was perfect and we had the best view to watch the sunset! Farmers market was right across the street and there’s a restaurants right outside too. Super safe location, staff/owners are sweet and welcoming. We will be back :))

I was on the first floor and you could hear the guests above me.Also, the room had a combo bath and shower. There was not anything on the floor of the tub to prevent you from slipping and hurting yourself.

This is a lovely, fun hotel within walking distance of the beach and of great dining spots. Beautiful ocean view in the upstairs rooms. It really felt like we could leave our lives behind and have a getaway.

Our room had a big skylight right over the bed, so as soon as the sun came out (by 6:30 am) we could no longer sleep. It felt like being under a spotlight. The entire room was creepy and dated. The "artists" paintings throughout the room were not in anyway "art" we'd want to be looking at our entire stay. Our room was filled with dirty knick knacks throughout the room. There were seashells and shelves with no purpose. The bathroom was very uncomfortable. If I had to say 3 nice things about this place they would be 1) the staff is friendly. 2) the location of the hotel is great (very good bakery across the street) 3) There's a partial ocean view from room 10. If you can afford an extra $100/night go to the Indio Hotel just down the street.

I am officially obsessed with this place. I had to stay a few nights due to a home flooding incident and with all that stress, it provided me a very peaceful place to stay. I will definitely be doing staycations here in the future.

My friend and I had a wonderful stay at Les Artistes Inn. The hotel is full of charm and character, with a unique atmosphere that made our visit special. It’s in a great location, just a short walk from shops and restaurants. The staff were kind and helpful throughout our stay, and the beds were incredibly comfortable.

Incredible property with lovely detail to design. Felt like a Spanish mission. Very secluded once behind gate. So clean and visually appealing. Felt incredibly relaxed the moment You walked in. Waterfalls through are soothing. Each room is unique with own special touches. It feels like you’re staying in your own bedroom, not a ‘hotel’. The Premier corner room was exceptional - great size, very private , large wrap around patio including hot tub, grill, table and chairs, love seat and fire pit - all with an ocean view. Highly recommend for a romantic getaway. Will definitely return when visiting in the future.

Building is run down and needing a lot of refreshing. The room had been worked on. Price seemed very high for the general condition.

this place was dirty. It was unsafe. There were people outside harassing us. They were doing construction. It was noisy. The restaurant had mold. The sheets were dirty. The lamps were not working not enough parking.

We loved our room and the view. It was cozy and much more “breathable” than a standard hotel room would be. The location is prime for downtown Del Mar and was easy to get around on foot. The minor things for us because we only stayed a night was the bathtub had a leaky faucet and the windows were crickety. The front door window was see thru at night and no blind to cover it. Otherwise it was perfect and they were so sweet and accommodating for an early check in. We would stay here again.

I loved the leaded windows and the Juliet balcony. There was a nice ocean view from my 2nd floor window. I enjoyed the fireplace and the fire log that was included with the room. The ladies who work at the front desk were so friendly and polite that it would be worth it to return to this hotel just to see them.

Old style hotel, reasonably priced for both the room and pets, clean, comfortable and quiet. Small staff that are very friendly. No coffee maker in the room, nor an ironing board, but both available in the corridor. No breakfast or food pantry available, but close to many eating establishments. Some complimentary fruits and pastries were available in the morning. Free parking and two blocks from ocean. We would stay here again.

I stayed in the Monet room, which was perfect for a single person or couple. I stayed as a single with my small dog. I had plenty of room for my yoga mat and his crate along with his separate dog bed. A small desk space for my laptop and shelves for my books. The added bonuses were the jet bathtub, the nice wood framed bed, bed bench, day bed, tiny balcony with a beautiful cascading garden water feature. And many artistic touches. It was quiet and serene. I would love to stay here again.

S could use some repairs/updating. Our room was very tiny and virtually zero storage space. They call it an ocean view, but you only catch a small window of it. The place is very quaint and convenient walk to downtown Del Mar and the beach.

Omg can't say enough good things about this place! Staff was FANTASTIC so so friendly and helpful. The rooms are immaculate the bed is super comfy best night sleep in ages! This place is so unique its like stepping into an italian villa so charming I could just hang out there and see nothing else and be perfectly content. I was in the Van Gogh room and it had a great ocean view. Now is not your typical chain hotel they even had real keys! So no ice machine vending machines etc. But who needs it! Had a nice little walkable town with shops and tons of restaurants. Highly recommend and will be back!

Amazing staff. Only 12 rooms and each designed by the owner. Very special little place.

Unique, charming place. Walking close to Del Mar village, shops, dining, etc. and beach. I had a room on the 2nd/top floor which had a partial view of the ocean. Great location and views for the price.

I like to start by saying the lady works at the desk is great. She is from Thailand and I also speak Thai so we had a fun time talking but the places definitely not peaceful as it says in some of the reviews. The hotel sits right off a main road and even though there is a wall in front, you could still hear the traffic and of course landscapers were mowing grass at 8 AM in the morning. The rooms are charming, and very accommodating, but not insulated for sound. You can also hear the people next-door taking a shower The sheets and blankets were very nice.

We were really disappointed by the condition of the finishes and fixtures of our room. The tub had water damaged plywood on the side. There were no curtains to block light on the windows.

Quiet, peaceful, chill.

great staff and owners

Very unique style and decor. Loved the floors! Peaceful. I would have liked a microwave. Oceanview isn’t much.

What a gem. I really prefer to soya at a home away from home type of place and this is it. Loved walking to the beach and coming back to a cozy space. My husband and I enjoyed the front and private patio. Can’t wait to come back.

My stay was very pleasant. I love this unique property and would like to stay there again.

The decor for the hotel was wonderful, with an excellent and helpful staff. It is right by the beach, with a lovely view and a fountain in the back. I could not recommend the place highly enough

Charming , quaint boutique hotel near cafes and restaurants

A charming and eclectic property that is well past its prime. Each of the guestrooms are decorated in a different style. Mine was entitled the 'Zen'. Room was full of some Japanese, some Chineses antiques. More of the Thrift Shop Variety. Made you feel you were sleeping in an Antique shop, an old, dark, and dusty Antique shop. Mattress felt old, with no support. I cannot say I felt comfortable.

The owner was so gracious and walked me to my room and turned on the fountains for ambiance. Very safe location as I was traveling alone. Very eclectic

Very expensive for what it is, even in San Diego in Summer. Shower and toilet room are open to the rest of the hotel room (in the case of the toilet room there's no reason for it). Odd allocation of patio space to rooms. Very clever tile and stone work add a lot of character to the property.

Nice view

Messy. Dirty.

Les Artistes is a refreshing change from the large hotel experience. If you would like to live in an artist's studio, this is the place. Each room is its own canvas. We highly recommend a stay there.

When I arrived at 8:45 pm and they walked me to the room, the doors and windows were wide open, no screens. Airing out? A lot of plants around. The mattress pad was too small and felt on edges. Woke up with 7 bed bug or bug bites around my ankles which itch. Saw particles on sheets near ankles. Checking out and found ants on clothes in suitcase, I’m out of hearDel Mar is one of nicest areas near beach and this is tired old place and not cheap.

Property owner took my money then gave the room away for higher pay during a time when town was sold out for racing season. Was forced to take a lesser room at her other property that didn’t even provide sufficient parking. Expedia btw was no help in addressing needs and drove some of the drama.

Perfect get-away in a darling boutique hotel.

Very outdated and unkept. We love Delmar. We thought we would give this a eclectic place a try but it was underwhelming. The staff is extremely nice.

Lovely

Very unique room

Great concept

Beautiful little hotel, very nice and helpful staff.

Great view, room interior was past it's prime.

convenient

Honestly, if you hate normal hotels this place is for you! It has such a wonderful and beautiful atmosphere! We absolutely fell in love with this place!

Great location in downtown Del Mar just two blocks from the coast but with a great view of the ocean. Rustic Spanish style hotel w charming room. Comfortable bed, log fireplace, balcony w views. Romantic stay.

The rooms are unique, with tons of character. Staff is courteous and friendly.

The room was amazing!

Loved the uniqueness and style of the property! The room was beautifully artistic!

We had our own private jacuzzi, fountain, fireplace and patio. It was perfect for our anniversary.

Felt like a dirty and neglected roadside motel rather than a quaint getaway. The room needed paint, cleaning, and minor maintenance. The linens were old and stained.

Individually designed rooms styled after themes and artists. Cozy beds. Sleek settings and styles. Noise carries a bit much, so maybe not the best for light sleepers. Architect/designer is a wonderful and kind Thai lady who put great effort into these rooms. Great place to stay in Del Mar if you want something unique and walkable to restaurants and the beach.

I have always wanted to stay here and I finally did. Bummed I only could stay one night for this trip. I plan to come back for at least a whole weekend soon!

Lovely, unique boutique hotel with very friendly helpful management. Just be aware that the standard room is pretty small, and the tub/shower plumbing is difficult to adjust. I would stay again.

No hot water at all. Had to take very cold shower. Wood stove. Lol. Half a dura flame. Will never stay there again. Don’t stay here !

LOVED the uniqueness of the property and the room. It felt like a sanctuary. I slept so well!
