This is a good hotel for a business trip, it has everything you need and is exactly as described. If you're attending a conference at the convention centre it is a short taxi ride away as is the airport. The conference I was attending also offered free shuttle buses which stopped at the hotel. Because it is not downtown it is better value than hotels there but it really was not a problem to easily get into the city. It was also nice to have somewhere to stay at night that was a bit less hectic than the big hotels downtown.

I had a long stay at the Marriott and I cannot say enough good things about this hotel and its staff. I was staying there on my own and the minute the staff realised that, they made me feel at home and no ask or request was too big or too small. The rooms at the Marriott are modern, spacious, clean and housekeeping do an excellent job every day. The location is also perfect and all the staff are super friendly and helpful. I want to give a special shout out to Serena on the front desk reception - she is the prime example of exceptional customer service. She is a 10/10 across the board - you won't find anymore more friendly or helpful. If I ever go back to Del Mar, I know that I will be staying at the Marriott. Thank you to all the staff there for making my stay so enjoyable and pleasant, I really appreciated it!
