Hotel Z

10/10 Excellent

"Good location near restaurants bars and Petco Park everything was walking distance. The staff was very nice the rooms were clean but very small. Only bad thing is the parking it’s expensive we paid $144 for Friday through Sunday at a nearby parking structure."

Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, modern hotel. Huge lobby with a lot of seating. The open restaurant on the main floor is really nice, but the roof top bar and pool is awesome. The pool isn't heated so I didn't go in but fun to hang around there with the massive led screen. Service on the rooftop was hit and miss depending on the bar tender and/or server and depending on the day but not really a big deal. We stayed there almost a week we will be back again."

Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our room and will definitely be coming back! Everything was spotless, smelled fresh, and felt very welcoming. My favorite part was the bed—it was incredibly comfortable, and the pillows were perfect too! We only stayed one night since we were on our way to Mexico, but it was a wonderful stay. If you’re ever in San Diego, I highly recommend staying here. You won’t be disappointed!"

The Horton Grand, Downtown/Gaslamp Quarter

8/10 Good

"You feel like you stepped back in time. A lot of history and the architecture takes you back. The restaurant was excellent, top notch mixology. For an older property it is top notch. We stayed in the second floor and had no problems with noise. Rooms are smaller but cozy. We will definitely stay again."
