Very spacious Plaza suite on the 10th floor. Roof terrace. Location in the Gaslamp district.

Michael Netherlands

This beautiful historic building is located in the heart of downtown San D in the gaslamp quarter, the perfect location for an authentic experience. The staff were warm and welcoming especially the irrepressible “Merry” on the front desk. If we go back to San D, we will be going here. The roof garden is a real plus! Pete and Liz, England.

Peter United Kingdom

The room was cosy and the bed was comfortable. The location was great and I was within walking distance of the USS Midway and the restaurants and bars.

Emma United Kingdom

Merry - the receptionist was very helpful and friendly

Anonymous United Kingdom

The building is a stylish, older building with character. Most hotels look the same but the Gaslamp didn’t, it was comfortable and spacious. The mini-suite that was in was clean and comfortable. It had a mini kitchen and shops were close enough to pick up food and drinks. The hotel was within 2 blocks of the venue I was attending.

The suite was lovely and comfortable and the staff, from Mary at the front desk and.the cleaners were wonderful.

Nancy United States

It was a Surprise Proposal to my now Fiancée. The staff was nice and helpful. The lady at the front desk was wonderful. She helped me make sure the surprise proposal went perfect. She helped me get family up to the room while I was out for dinner with my girlfriend. The front desk lady’s name was Merry
