Why We Love This Hotel
- Located directly on the beach and walkable to restaurants and bars in downtown Rosarito
- A favorite of Old Hollywood celebs like Marilyn Monroe, Orson Wells, Rita Hayworth and Frank Sinatra
- There's a full-service spa on site as well as a 17th-floor rooftop lounge with sweeping views of the ocean
About the Hotel
Overview
Originally built in 1924 as an escape for California socialites, the Rosarita Beach Hotel feels grand in a way rarely seen off the silver screen: Lofty ceilings bedecked with hand-painted wood beams, traditional ceramic tiling and large murals of scenes from Baja's history greet guests as they step into the lobby. There are also celeb-level amenities like the on-site spa and bar on the 17th floor, where guests can enjoy commanding views of the coastline.
Guests can choose to stay in one of three towers, ranging from studios to three-bedroom suites. For families, we recommend the Playas Tower — rooms here come with kitchenettes as well as unfettered beachside access. All guest rooms come with private balconies overlooking the beach.
From its downtown location, the hotel is walkable to loads of bars and restaurants in Rosarito. Guests can also find traditional Mexican dishes alongside American fare at the on-site Azteca Restaurant (open for breakfast, lunch and dinner), which adjoins two outdoor heated pools and a hot tub — all of which are great for days when the surf is choppy.

I've stayed at this property a few times before and had purchased vouchers for future stays which I wasn't able to use prior to their expiration. Knowing the value paid would still be available to me I booked another stay. Unfortunately the hotel would not let me use more than one voucher at a time, I had 4, and I was charged full price for the room. This made the cost comparable to what I would have been able to book the room for at their advertised rates. So I basically have the choice of using the voucher credit and paying rack rate or not using the voucher and paying virtually the same or less for a weekend stay. I even asked the hotel if I could apply the voucher credit to spa services or the restaurant. They said that wasn't possible either. Very disappointing.

Staying in the Pacifico Tower is awesome. The suite is perfect for a couple and the views are phenomenal! Easy to walk to great restaurants. Highly recommend this property except for my voucher credit challenge.

Nice experience South of the Border. The rooms at the tower are nice, spectacular ocean views and sunset. However, the beach is filthy, horses are strolling there and you need to know where you step on... Too many beer cans and bottles on the beach.

Every time we go the perks seem to be a little less, i.e. no 15% off food, $5 extra if you want the buffet, less margarita coupons.

We love this deal so much! Thank you to Travelzoo and Rosarito Beach Hotel for offering it. <3 My husband proposed here 4 years ago, and we were able to make the trip again this year to revisit it. The staff is great, and the rooms are really nice...I miss waking up to that gorgeous view. The extras with the massage, breakfast, and drinks make this a great deal. Thanks again!

This is the second time I went to the spa. After the massage which was wonderful there was NO hot water in the women’s room. This happened the last time I was there. When I told the staff they just looked at me like I was crazy and said no body else has an issue. My boyfriend said he has hot water in the men’s. This is the second time! 4 years apart! Also, the pools need a MAJOR update. Tiles falling off. Concrete cracked. Rooms need a major update. Beds are worn out, mattress very uncomfortable. Bathtubs won’t hold water and this happened to me 4 years ago too! Also when you update the rooms please put usbs or more outlets please. I love the people and the staff are hard working people. Food is great. The owners need to update!

We have stayed at Rosarito Beach Hotel many times. It always is a pleasant experience and don't recall ever having any real issues. It is close to main area of town so it is very convenient. People that work here have always been nice
