FAQs about hotels in San Diego









The Art of Easy Living

Sweeping along the coast against a mountain backdrop, San Diego has easy living down to a fine art. Its wonderful beaches and mild climate make it a favourite spring break destination, and with over 40 city breweries, there are plenty of ice cold beers to set the mood.

The city’s most recognisable landmark is the Hotel del Coronado, a wooden Victorian beach resort, now a National Historic Landmark. The original Spanish mission, the first in California, has been relocated to the Mission Valley area, and Old Town San Diego still has many Colonial buildings and quirky shops. Also great for shopping are Horton Plaza and the boutiques in the beachfront neighbourhoods.

The city’s most famous attraction is its zoo in Balboa Park, a few blocks from San Diego International Airport. One of the world’s largest zoos, it is well worth a visit, as is the fantastic SeaWorld, home to several killer whales. To see wildlife in its natural habitat head to La Jolla beach where harbour seals rest, or watch whales in season from Point Loma Lighthouse.

Just over the border from Mexico’s Tijuana, San Diego has a distinctly Latin American vibe and a variety of accommodation encompassing apartments, motels, B&Bs and hotels. See Booking.com for the best deals.

    Love the Little Italy section of Dan Diego.

    Love the Little Italy section of Dan Diego. The Saturday market is wonderful in the plaza. The historic boats on the bay and the waterfront walk is beautiful. It's a pleasant walk to Seaport Village. Our grand daughter loves the carousel. The whale watching tours and dinner cruises are out of the area by the Midway historic ship.

    Unlike Los Angeles, San Deigo had really pleasant 'vibes'. The people were friendly and open. Nothing was too far away and it is a beautiful city! It felt totally safe and I love the varieties of stores one street! Loved the thrift store. Really good quality things.

    San Diego is so geographically diverse is so many things to do and go. The freeways are easy to use . The Mexican food and seafood is amazing. The beaches are beautiful, especially in Pacific Beach it’s so scenic . The restaurants are amazing shelter Island is a beautiful place to eat and to take a walk. The food is so delicious so many different cultures to choose from . Use Yelp to guide you to where go. San Diego can be very expensive plan your trip ahead of time. I would avoid Tour season April and September is the best time to come to San Diego to avoid the crowd .

    A fabulous place! Perfect first visit and I hope to have many more. The people are friendly, the food is delicious and so varied and the sunsets and sunrises are so dreamy. Great places to eat: Copper Top Coffee, Oscar’s Mexican Seafood, Board and Brew and really anything near Pacific Beach!

    San Diego is fun for everyone.

    San Diego is fun for everyone. We did the US Midway tour, US Marine Museum, Whale Watching and visited Downtown, Little Italy, Gaslamp district. Was fun, great places to eat at and enjoy the weather and coast. It is pricey, so if you're willing to take a hit to the wallet, it is an awesome place to be.

    My son and his wife stayed here a few months ago and highly recommended this motel. Motel is very basic but extremely clean which is a must for me when traveling. We traveled to San Diego area and Del Cornado so the location was just fine. A/C a little loud but at least it worked well. Hard to believe only 6 parking spots for hotel but we were able to find free public parking on the street. Great place to drop your bags and hit the town. Oh, can't beat the price.

    It was close to the airport and convenient to downtown and transportation. The surrounding environment was clean and quiet, and I liked the spa and pool. The staff were all friendly, and accessibility and value for money were the best. The breakfast was especially good, and all the staff at the restaurant were friendly and tried to maintain cleanliness. If I come back to San Diego in the future, this is a hotel I want to come back

    The room was very spacious and clean. The breakfast is ok but nothing special. The hotel itself is situated on the main road and has an adequate bus connection to the Old Town Transit Centre where this is the main transport of buses, trams and the Amtrax train. If you prefer to walk from here to the hotel, (which I did) took me 19 minutes. The centre of San Diego takes only a few minutes by tram.

    LOCATION!!! This hotel is in the heart of Little Italy!! Walking distance to so many restaurants and coffee shops. If you have a car, this hotel charges $35/day to park it, which was more reasonable than the other big name hotels in downtown San Diego. You don’t even need a car since the location is perfect, but for exploring the beaches and other areas of SD, it might be worth it to rent one.

    We arrived earlier than check-in and the front desk representative was able to get us into a room. This allowed us more time to explore Old Town San Diego. She was so friendly and provided us with information on thing to see and do. We loved the area, hotel and all the amenities it provides its guest. We would definitely stay there again and recommend to our friends and family.

    It is a safe and comfortable hotel the moment I walk in. It is the tallest hotels in downtown San Diego. The gym is clean and it has bay views windows which motivates me to workout while staying. The room is nice, the bottom of shower has slight mildew. I will definitely recommend relatives and friends to stay for vacation and will come back again. Thank you.

    Wonderful hotel, modern art niveau style hotel with industrial design touches. Nice, spacious rooms with comfortable big beds. Location is walking distance to the nice areas in San Diego, such as Little Italy, the Gaslamp District, Balbao park, and, a little bit further but still at walkable distance, the very cosy Hillcrest area.
