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 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 .AAnonymous - 10Scored 10

A fabulous place! Perfect first visit and I hope to have many more. The people are friendly, the food is delicious and so varied and the sunsets and sunrises are so dreamy. Great places to eat: Copper Top Coffee, Oscar’s Mexican Seafood, Board and Brew and really anything near Pacific Beach!

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.PhilUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

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.AdamCanada

- 8.4Scored 8.4Very goodRated very good· 111 reviewsI was in San Diego for a conference in the convention center. I was looking for an affordable place which is close to the center. With this accommodation I found exactly what I wanted. My room was really big and offered everything I needed. Also that the hotel is situated in the gaslamp quater was really nice, since you did not have to walk too far at night after dinner and drinks. Finally, I think the staff is doing a really great job! They were super nice and helpful, always in a good mood and made you a feel safe and welcome.

Motel is very basic but extremely clean which is a must for me when traveling. We traveled to San Diego area and Del Cornado so the location was just fine. A/C a little loud but at least it worked well. Hard to believe only 6 parking spots for hotel but we were able to find free public parking on the street. Great place to drop your bags and hit the town. Oh, can't beat the price.

The location to other things like stores to get groceries was also good and the room was spacious and comfortable. Parking was a plus. Also the hotel has taken the time to plant beautiful aloes and other succulents. You can tell they really pay attention to the garden. It was a delight to see.MKSouth Africa
