Top Altadena Hotel Reviews

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

10/10 Excellent

"Not the greatest place I’ve ever stayed up but for a place to sleep it’s perfect"

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"An amazing stay! It was perfect. Right in downtown close to Coronado and other beaches. The amenities we excellent. Hydration stations, accessible ice machines, very elegant vibes, and the room itself was perfect. Lots of storage if you plan to stay for a few days. Plus there was a excellent restaurant downstairs that gives you a discount on your bill for being a guest at The Sophia. Parking was okay. Does add up if you do self parking there but plus side is you get in and out privileges. I will definitely be staying here again."

The DEXTRO Little Italy, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is great! They are so helpful, kind, nice, and always have a smile on their faces especially Aria shes so sweet and answered all my questions super helpful even though she was extra busy with other guests i saw that she helped us to the fullest! Thank you for giving me a great experience!"

Gaylord Pacific Resort & Convention Center

8/10 Good

"Family friendly!! The pool was amazing!! wave pool, lazy pool 2 other pools, 2 slides, kids play area. Free e bike rental for 2 hours. Everything was great! Except as a EV (Tesla) driver, they only allow the EV charging through valet option, which is $65 plus $10 for EV charging. They should have EV charging for self parking as well. I would have given 5 stars, but the EV charging was a hassle. I needed to drive out to use the supercharger. Hope the resort change this policy so EV driver can simply park and charge overnight."
