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,...
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 seashellsAAnonymous - 10Scored 10
Very friendly city, with lots of very good facilities.
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.KennethUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0

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.GaryUnited States of America - 10Scored 10
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.AlanUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

- From $212.54 per night7.9Scored 7.9GoodRated good· 2,037 reviewsLovely hotel with a great location in Little Italy. Walking distance to the waterfront, Downtown San Diego and Balboa Park. 3 blocks away from a trolley station. 10 minute car ride to the airport. The area is awesome, feels very safe at night with plenty of movement (though the room is quiet so no problem getting a good night's sleep). Many restaurants and coffee shops nearby which provide great options for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Room size is OK and a microwave is included. A/C unit working. Friendly staff.

The location is convenient right in the hotel circle, convenient to all of the attractions around San Diego. Free parking was critical in the decision to stay here.
