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.

    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.

    Due to our booked airbnb accommodation being disgusting we only got the one day there but we went to the USS Midway museum, this was fantastic and not to be missed, the Doubletree hotel was good all things right, only downside the resteraunt was extortionate prices and really spoiled the stay. Had to go out to eat but there was a small mall with nice shops and an assortment of eating choices about 5 minutes walk away, saved the day.

    San Diego have really worked hard on making it a tourist-friendly city. Their tourist web site (SanDiego.org) has a lot of really good suggestions about what to do and see in the city and the surrounding area. We stayed in La Jolla which is a nice small town but has easy access via transit to the city. If you are in a car, there appears to be a lot of free parking for various attractions (e.g .Balboa Park, Old Town) and you can park for free in the Old Town and get to downtown San Diego in about 15 minutes using their excellent tram system. If you are driving, you can travel out to Coronado and enjoy the State Park there. Also worthwhile is a trip to the desert on Hwy 52.

    Actually , my target was to attend the American Academy of Dermatology at the convention center. I went to Lajolla, Balboa park and Old town. Any extra times was for shopping. It was winter time. I used public transportation, the hotel is easily accessible through the green line trolley and bus 88 and the old town station.I used the airport electric bus free of charge to old town bus and bus # 88 from there.

    Absolutely beautiful and fantastically fun area!

    Absolutely beautiful and fantastically fun area! I would be happy alone, with family or a girlfriend. So much to do and such great atmosphere and food, weather etc. Only problem was FANTASTICALLY EXPENSIVE! Holy cow, bring a lot of cash. Absolutely everything cost a fortune, so we weren't able to stay as long as we wanted.

    The downtown area near Seaport Village is fun to explore with good restaurants and other shops. If you stay at a hotel in the area, you can also visit the Gaslamp Quarter for tours and more great food. You can walk along the Embarcadero and visit the large peninsula park. Another thing to do is find a good concert at the Rady Shell at Jacobs Park. The Rady Shell is just a short walk, and it would be a nice evening.

    The property is beautiful, peaceful, clean and quiet. The staff is very friendly. We arrive at the hotel at noon. Checking time was at 4pm, our room was ready and we got to checking early. That was a big plus!!!!. Best location because it was 5 minute walk to the beach, various food places, shops. Also La Jolla Cove and downtown was 10min drive and San Diego was 20mini drive. I would highly recommend this place and I would come and stay here again. Thank You to the staff or Riviera Inn for all you do. :)

    The room was spacious, airy, well appointed and very comfortable with a nice bathroom. The staff were super friendly and helpful. A delightful small hotel with character in an excellent location in a quiet area with a view of the ocean from the balcony and just steps from the small beach and the La Jolla cove walk. Pelicans, sea lions and seals just minutes away made for a extremely enjoyable stay. A great area with easy access to all the attractions that San Diego has to offer.

    The hotel is ideally located 5 mins walk from the bus/tram station, 5 mins from the old town, 5 mins from very good restaurants. The staff is smiling, welcoming and always attentive to our requests. Finally, the establishment is clean both in the common areas and in the rooms. The breakfast by the pool is very nice. But, for us, this hotel was a great discovery and contributed to our having a great stay in San Diego. We are going back without hesitation. THANK YOU !

    The hotel has everything you need, there is a market in the lobby with 24 hours service and they serve starbucks coffee. They have sandwiches and fruits so that was very convenient. The hotel is located by the sea so it's about 20 minutes walk to reach downtown san Diego where all the action is. The room was ok, nothing special about it, however, the view from the room was amazing.

    I had a great stay at Del Mar Beach Hotel. This was my first time staying here and it will be my new default stay in San Diego. The room was nice and clean and - most importantly - comfortable! I could stay in that bed all day. The location cannot be beat and the lounge on the water was really nice and useful. I look forward to my next stay!

    the rooms were very clean and spacious, the fact that the hotel had its's own parking was part of the reason I selected this hotel. Location wise it was fairly good, I liked that I was maximum 10-15 minutes away from the places I wanted to visit like La Jolla, Balboa Park, Downtown San Diego.

    The position in San Diego and the large bathroom, bigger than the bedroom. The possibility of free parking was one of the reason why we choose the hotel. The complimentary breakfast is a plus although I have eaten only bread and coffe.
