Room design was really great. Family oriented restroom (stool and hose shower head for kids) plus separate room for kids was really great. However, this is no Disney quality. Lights broken, things not working. Don't expect Disney and you'll be satisfied.

Not impressed
Very commercial like Hotel. It did not feel as a place for kids to enjoy and experience. It was more like a way for them to make extra buck any way they can. For example, check in was delayed hours while when asked for late check out, they offered an extra hour for an extra cost.

Amazing for families.
If you love Legos, you'll love the hotel. They have kid food and grown up food. Not a big selection, but, everything tasted good. The rooms were clean and very stylish. The Pirate Bed was very comfy. The cabanas by the pool were a great way to wrangle two kids and still relax. We will be back again.

Best way to visit Legoland
I've been to this hotel twice in the past year with my 4 year-old son. I think the hotel has definitely cut some of the little touches since our last stay, which is unfortunate, and the hotel rooms are definitely showing some wear (not surprising) but my son loves the park and I don't think I would visit without staying here. The restaurant, play areas, and evening entertainment really add to the experience.

Truly the kid version of Vegas!
The hotel exceeded our expectations on our family vacation. It is just steps away from Legoland and hotel guests are allowed early access to the park. Our room included a daily breakfast buffet that was exceptional. A variety of food choices. The hotel itself was extremely kid friendly. Multiple play areas with lego, awesome lego creations to look at, and the elevator was so much fun. (Every elevator should be like that.) The staff were very friendly and helpful - the people at the front desk, valet, restaurant staff, entertainers were amazing! There are so many sights to see and places to visit in the greater San Diego area.

Birthday Holiday for my 5 year old.
We stayed 2 nights in the hotel to go along with 2 days in the LEGOLAND Park. Since the park closed at 5:00 pm, the fun did not stop there, as the nightly activities kept my 5 year old busy. All staff are very friendly and the hotel is great for kids.
