Known as The Pink Lady of La Jolla, La Valencia Hotel marks its eightieth anniversary in 2006. The guest roster brims with A-list celebrities—from Groucho Marx and Lillian Gish to Oprah Winfrey and Martha Stewart.
The hotel rests above La Jolla Cove, a short stroll from the Pacific, Ellen Browning Scripps Park, and the village’s galleries and boutiques. Inside, hand-painted murals blend with antique furnishings and Spanish mosaics for a distinct Mediterranean ambience.
