What guests think

Travellers describe Torre Lucerna Hotel Ensenada as a modern, clean property with friendly staff, ocean views and comfortable rooms, but note drawbacks like street noise on mountain‑side rooms, uneven water pressure, and inconsistent pool or jacuzzi heating and upkeep.

Many appreciate the convenient location for Ensenada and the Valle de Guadalupe, secure parking with valet, and pleasant common areas such as the sleek lobby with live piano. Guests also report missing in‑room coffee makers or fridges, the rooftop bar frequently closed or private, and no direct beach access. Dining feedback is mixed: several praise the generous Sunday brunch and on‑site restaurants, while others find breakfast quality or prices disappointing and service uneven. Expect a polished stay that’s best with an ocean‑view room.

Room was clean, but overpriced. Jacuzzi and pool were not heated whatsoever, which ruined that experience. Okay hotel but needs a lot of improvements in features/amenities to be worth the price. Also, avoid the breakfast in the morning and go to one of the restaurants nearby.

Five star hotel! The rooms are clean and very comfortable. The view and pool is amazing. The only bad thing is the rooftop bar has been close since Covid. It would be great if they could reopen that bar for people that want to enjoy the night at the hotel.

First of all this hotel is truly beautiful. Paid for a large room on this app but had an issue because the hotel does not allow room modifications, however the app didn't communicate that and I was charged anyway. This is a luxury hotel with beautiful common areas and pool and many professional guests. We came on the weekday so it was extra quiet. Three restaurants on site and they are all American priced. Had a local delicacy and the worst BLT I've ever had in my life. Some disappointments were there is no beach access, had to walk around the whole block and across other hotel properties to reach it. The rooftop bar area was also closed. The amenities were nice and free valet parking, but my trip was unfortunately spoiled badly by the payment issue (it was eventually fixed but no one wants that).

The staff was super accommodating and understanding with us. The rooms were very clean and the staff was very helpful. The dinner at the hotel was not the best, but the breakfast is well worth it.

AI-generated summary based on recent guest reviews

Rooms

Rooms are modern, comfortable and often spacious, and many recommend booking ocean‑view rooms for the best experience. Recurring issues include significant road noise in mountain‑view rooms due to thin windows, weak or inconsistent hot water/pressure, and missing in‑room coffee makers or fridges; balconies and pillows can also disappoint.

The staff did not answer our calls for the most part. The water went out for about 4-5 hours for 1 day and they did nothing to credit or make up for the inconvenience. The front desk didn’t even know how to apologize for the incident either. On the last day I called and called for bell hop service and no answer. The service review was simply for the front desk. Valet, bar and dining service was excellent. I highly suggest the restaurant for dinner. The waiter was very attentive and experienced in serving which I appreciated. We had the restaurant to ourselves which made it special to us, it was dim and sultry. In the end, I wouldn’t mind stay again but the hotel has a lot of little flaws that need to be worked on and little repairs abs deep cleaning need to be done. We had the loft suite with balcony and which was sexy for a romantic weekend getaway. 3 star review.

This hotel is really cool. Lobby is very entertaining, great bar, live piano music and breakfast lounge. Pool area looks very chill. 7 minutes from all the cool places in Ensenada. We are motorcycle riders and had safe place to leave bikes, and we were 10 minutes away from our favorite restaurant BOULES.
