Top San Diego Convention Center Hotel Reviews

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

10/10 Excellent

"A consistent stay for us when visiting San Diego."

Palihotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

8/10 Good

"The ambiance was unique and boutique. While I applaud the vintage look, I didn’t enjoy how “vintage” are the elevators. It’s a relic from 1928 but for a hotel with 11 floors makes going up and down a challenge. One was being renovated, and the other one was slow. We were left with no choice but using the stairs (10 flight of stairs) in order to make it to our ride a couple of times. The room was cozy but very small compared to other hotels with comparable prices. Bathrooms could use a renovation."

Keating Hotel By At Mine Hospitality

8/10 Good

"The staff was amazing, very courteous. The location was excellent, close to sports, restaurants and bars. The shower needs some type of shelf to put anything on. They provide ear plugs, because noise levels at night are outrageous due to the bars."

Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Good location Rooftop pool was not deep enough for adults, only 3 feet The rest was good"

Residence Inn by Marriott San Diego Downtown/Gaslamp Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"thank you very much!!"
