Top San Diego Convention Center Hotel Reviews

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

8/10 Good

"Restaurants adjoining were very nice. Claim Jumpers, Ruth Crisp excellent, Hazelwood shop all great. View from balcony excellent."

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

8/10 Good

"We loved our stay at the Hardrock! Excellent location near the ferry landing at the convention center. Downtown shops and restaurants within walking distance. Fun events for the holiday festivities. Poolside food and beverages were delicious and our bartenders were the best. Restful, exciting stay and plenty of time for business as well."

Hotel Indigo San Diego-Gaslamp Quarter by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Our favorite hotel in San Diego. Just enjoyed our second stay and we will be back. Location is wonderful with tons of amazing food choices nearby. Quick lyft ride to the Zoo & Mission beach. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the area."

Residence Inn by Marriott San Diego Downtown/Gaslamp Quarter

8/10 Good

"This was a one-night staycation for us over the 4th of July. Good location near Gaslamp district with good restaurants and bars nearby. Staff were pleasant. Except for the frig, we did not use the fully equipped kitchen but it's a nice amenity. We also did not use the pool or gym. Our room with queen bed was spacious. Only complaint was the sound proofing wasn't the greatest with noisy guests in the hall (it was the 4th :). We did not use the Valet service as it seemed pricey. We were not planning to use the in and out perk so parked at one of the many paid parking lots nearby for a much more reasonable overnight price. The complimentary breakfast was better than usual, but the times and space were limited for a weekend and we had a wait for seating or take our breakfast to our room. Overall, we would consider staying again especially for a Padres game!"

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown Little Italy

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a convenient location if you want to be in downtown. The room was clean and comfortable. The balcony was fun and we enjoyed our views. Staff was kind and friendly. Parking garage onsite but was a very tight fit in some areas when entering and leaving the garage."
