The Bed & Breakfast Inn at La Jolla

Frommer's Review

A 1913 Cubist house designed by San Diego's first important architect, Irving Gill -- and occupied in the 1920s by John Philip Sousa and his family -- is the setting for this cultured and elegant B&B. Reconfigured as lodging, the house has lost none of its charm, and its appropriately unfrilly period furnishings add to the sense of history. The inn also features lovely enclosed gardens and a cozy library and sitting room. Sherry and fresh-cut flowers await in every room, some of which feature a fireplace or ocean view. Each room has a private bathroom, most of which are on the compact side. The furnishings are tasteful and cottage-style, with plenty of historic photos of La Jolla. Gourmet breakfast is served wherever you desire -- dining room, patio, sun deck, or in your room. Picnic baskets (extra charge) are available with a day's notice.
