Top San Diego Convention Center Hotel Reviews

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"The only thing I didn’t like was out of their hands, upon checking out they were fixing the street so valet couldn’t bring the car. We had to wait long in the lobby and then carry all our stuff to the side of the hotel where they pulled the car up. Didn’t feel very VIP. Didn’t even have a bell cart."

Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Staff on the whole were excellent and helpfull"

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

10/10 Excellent

"The view was great! We upgraded to the higher floor package and were on the top floor facing the bay. The hotel was convenient to everything we did and wanted to do. The room was a bit dated and worn and the price for parking was a little bit steep. Lizle was a FANTASTIC front desk host. She was warm and inviting from the start to finish of our stay. You have a jewel of an employee with her."

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful historic hotel! Absolutely loved the atmosphere and my room faced the city which was lovely. I do wish the elevators were wider but that can't be helped."
