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 favorite spring break destination, and with over 40 city breweries, there are plenty of ice cold beers to set the mood.

The city’s most recognizable landmark is the Hotel del Coronado, a wooden Victorian beach resort, now a National Historic Landmark. As original Spanish mission and first in California, it's 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 neighborhoods.

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 harbor 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 accommodations encompassing apartments, motels, B&Bs and hotels. See Booking.com for the best deals.

    If you're a smoker you may as well stay away from San Diego, the beaches were crowded and not a lot of places to sit. Everything is expensive. A few good points were there were a lot of restaurants, there was I believe a couple of amusement parks but we didn't attend those. Mission Bay has a lot of really cool seashells if you love to hunt for seashells

    Very friendly city, with lots of very good facilities. But things quite expensive. As with a lot of places visited worldwide, travellers arriving at airport get ripped off by taxi drivers taking them from airport to hotel. Rates ought to be clearly displayed so travellers can then make their choice.

    The city appears clean, uncluttered, with lots of green space, beautiful flowering shrubs, flowers, palm trees, and beaches. We've visited before; this time we were in town for graduation at Point Loma Nazarene University, and enjoyed our stay. Balboa Park is amazing, and we attended an organ concert there last time.

    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.

    The hotel is in a safe area in San Diego downtown. The streets were all walkable and it is very close to the San Diego Convention Centre (15 min walk). It is a 5 min walk from the gaslamp area and close to many restaurants and shops. It is just a 10 min ride from the airport. The staff was friendly. The bed was very comfortable. The housekeeping staff was great! The lobby area was beautiful. This room is good for a 1-2 day work-related stay.

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 hotel was 20 mins away from Downtown and attractions. I would recommend this hotel to stay in and will stay again next time I visit San Diego! The Pool scenery is very beautiful and the pool temperature was just right, warm!

    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.
