Clean rooms and super cute themes/ I love the refinished look to a historical building. Super nice rooms and cute aesthetics. The cafe was amazing, had the beach French omelette and hazelnut cappuccino I’ve ever tried. On the pricey side for rooms but worth it.

Great place to stay as it’s close to many great locations. The staff are very helpful and friendly. I do wish the mini fridge was not full of amenities to buy and instead be empty for you to put any water or perishables while on your trip.

Room was great but the restaurant there was not the best. Did not have a pleasant experience, waiter sat us down, but didn’t come back to check on us. Other guest came before us and got served right away. He might of forgot about us, but when he finally came back to our table not even a sorry for the wait or anything.

A unique, charming, older hotel with a great tradition in San Diego. Built in 1913, the hotel has managed to maintain a simple elegance, not often found in newer hotels. Centrally located as well to the Gaslamp District. Loved it!

This hotel is incredibly charming and cozy! We stayed for a night to see a concert at Petco Park, and it was the perfect walking distance. The hotel was very clean and so pretty! The rooms are smaller but for what we needed it for, it was perfect! The staff at the front desk was extremely friendly. The attached café is beautiful and has FANTASTIC breakfast! If we stayed in Gaslamp again, i will be back!
