Pendry San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was super and Bar was great with good service"

Residence Inn by Marriott San Diego Downtown/Gaslamp Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. Would love to see some upgrades just to improve on things that are older and didn't work. For example, the AC had trouble all night and when we asked for a fan, we never got one. The finishes in the room were rough but didn't take away from the stay."

The Westin San Diego Bayview

8/10 Good

"Stayed two nights of four night visit to area. Airport shuttle was excellent. Check in was fast. Room was high with bayview but next to staff room so heard music each morning by housekeeping staff who seemed surprised someone was in the room. Pool is much smaller than expected. Feels like an old Westin back home… same set up etc…. Public areas back memories of the 80s and 90s. Location is good for walking but my adult (college aged) daughter was startled by a man who came up quickly behind her and made comments about her appearance so she didn’t want to walk alone or after dark in the area. Not many people around after dark except homeless and occasional tourist. Did not take advantage of happy hour… second ticket was for evening after we were to depart. Front desk staff was great. TV screen read ‘welcome Barbara’ which is not my name. Was told they’d credit some Bonvoy points for some of the issues we had like gritty sheets but never got the points. Figured that was because I went through Expedia. Bathroom could be better … on par with a 2-star motel. Appreciated the in-room safe. Probably wouldn’t stay downtown again but hotel was okay especially location wise for walking during the day and the airport shuttle to/from hotel was helpful."

Gaslamp Plaza Suites

10/10 Excellent

"We booked this the same Day we got into town. It was soo nice from beginning to end. The staff was super nice and friendly starting with the Valet Guy Casey who was super nice. Then when we checked in, Pablo was super friendly and recommended some great places in the area. The rooms were nice and decent. We ended up getting a standard room and decided to Stay an extra night. Also when we checked out Mary was super energetic and friendly and very helpful. We will definitely upgrade when we come again soon, in the heart of the Gas Lamp District but overall, this place was the perfect spot to stay. Totally highly recommend."
