Top San Diego Hotel Reviews

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

8/10 Good

"Amazing location but the property is in need of some maintenance. Since we stayed here a year ago there is no longer an airport shuttle, and there are areas that need some attention such as the beds, bathrooms and elevators. Just starting to feel a bit dated."

Bay Club Hotel & Marina

Bay Club Hotel & Marina

8/10 Good

"Loved the pool and spa area. Did not love the street-facing ground floor rooms. Lights from cars entering the parking lot all night would shine into our eyes while on the patio or straight into our room. Blackout curtains helped, but there are always cracks around the edges. Not a dealbreaker, but something to be aware of. Highly recommend springing for a marina view room instead."

Handlery Hotel

Handlery Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great for family!"

California Suites Hotel

California Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very good location. Not walkable but driving is easy to go around. The coffee at the hotel was something else, not a usual "hotel coffee". This was a great coffee to our surprise. Parking is easy to find and very available. The feel is more like being at an apartment complex. Liked it. Could go back if found a good deal."

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is very good, only the WiFi service did not work at all and tv."

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"The pictures on this website are terrible. I was extremely hesitant, but because it was a Hyatt location. I decided to go with my gut because I’ve stayed at Hyatt before. When I arrived at the hotel did not disappoint. Everything was amazing. If you’re thinking to book a room at this hotel do it. I completely recommend it."

The Sofia Hotel

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I liked the central location. The shower door leaked onto the floor. Had to put down towels to absorb the water, but overall I loved the hotel and will come back."

Hampton Inn San Diego/Mission Valley

Hampton Inn San Diego/Mission Valley

8/10 Good

"A bit more variety of food for breakfast"
