It has 210 guest rooms and suites, a spa, and dining that includes Mustangs & Burros and Adobe El Restaurante, directly across from UC San Diego. It deepens AC's San Diego cluster with a gardens-and-hacienda La Jolla resort alongside La Valencia on the cove and the Lodge at Torrey Pines beside the golf course, plus Hotel del Coronado, Paradise Point on Mission Bay, The US Grant and Pendry downtown, and Cal-a-Vie in Vista. As the campus-and-research-mesa anchor, it complements AC's coastal La Jolla hotels, and AC chauffeurs guests from the airport to Torrey Pines and across the county with a Black SUV on call.
The 210 guest rooms and suites are decorated in calm beige and blue tones that echo the gardens, many with private patios or terraces opening onto the courtyards. The grounds are the signature - roughly 10 acres of landscaped gardens with fountains, fire pits, and adobe fireplaces that carry the former-equestrian-estate and Spanish-hacienda character. Dining includes Mustangs & Burros, the coastal-inspired restaurant in a hacienda setting, and Adobe El Restaurante for breakfast, with bars and a spa for wellness. It is a quieter, garden-resort counterpoint to AC's coastal and downtown San Diego anchors, designed for UCSD families and visitors, Torrey Pines golf and conference travelers, and biotech and research guests on the mesa - and AC provides discreet arrivals, departures, and on-call chauffeur service across La Jolla and the county.
