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.

    Unlike Los Angeles, San Deigo had really pleasant 'vibes'. The people were friendly and open. Nothing was too far away and it is a beautiful city! It felt totally safe and I love the varieties of stores one street! Loved the thrift store. Really good quality things.

    San Diego is so geographically diverse is so many things to do and go. The freeways are easy to use . The Mexican food and seafood is amazing. The beaches are beautiful, especially in Pacific Beach it’s so scenic . The restaurants are amazing shelter Island is a beautiful place to eat and to take a walk. The food is so delicious so many different cultures to choose from . Use Yelp to guide you to where go. San Diego can be very expensive plan your trip ahead of time. I would avoid Tour season April and September is the best time to come to San Diego to avoid the crowd .

    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.

    This is an older style motel that is kept in excellent condition. Checking in and out was friendly and efficient. Parking is convenient. Rooms are large, comforable, impeccably clean with good climate control. The location on San Diego's "Hotel Circle" is reasonably convenient to restaurants and attractions. The property is really well maintained with amazing attention to detail. The on-site restaurant is good for breakfast. This is a very good place to stay in San Diego at a reasonable price.

    Perfect location in Little Italy district of San Diego. Area was very lively with bars and restaurants,also a variety of street markets. Only a short downhill all the way walk to Santa Fe depot. Our room overlooked the street and was remarkably quiet given all the bars and restaurants over the road. Overall an excellent boutique hotel. Rooms are on the small side with little space for storage but that did not spoil in any way an enjoyable 5 night stay. Staff were all courteous and very
