Top Nova SD Hotel Reviews

Hotel Indigo San Diego-Gaslamp Quarter by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Good location down the block from Petco Park. Convenient access to the San Diego convention center. Only a few blocks away from fifth Street where there is plenty of options for food. Staff was very helpful and pleasant."

Omni San Diego Hotel at the Ballpark

8/10 Good

"My daughter and I were in town for Comic Con this year (2026) and needed a nice hotel to stay in which was close to the convention center: the Omni at the Ballpark certainly fit that bill. (I am a writer and had a booth at the convention.) We found the servers at the Fres.co (breakfast) and at Tortuga (lunch) to be very kind (the staff in general was eager to please). We availed ourselves of the pool and hot tub. The beds were comfortable. My only complaint is that Saturday night there was a private party at the pool. It ran well past midnight. It was very difficult to sleep with all of the noise."
