Top New Children's Museum Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown Little Italy

10/10 Excellent

"The entire staff and hotel were amazing. From the food to concierge to lobby, pool and walking distance to Little Italy, this is absolutely a gem. Room was exceptional, bed was soft and it is pet friendly! A must stay."

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

8/10 Good

"Clean room. We were able to check in early, no extra charge. Room upgrade with ocean view was affordable and offered by Expedia."

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay at The Sofia Hotel. We would recommend this property to anyone looking to stay near all the attractions in San Diego. Check in was quick and they even offer fresh flavored ice water at check in. We stayed on the 7th floor and loved the comfortable room with everything we needed to feel like royalty. My favorite touch was the make up towel and the filtered water dispenser. The towels were large enough to wrap a fuller body and the body wash and shampoo was a perfect choice for anyone. Would highly recommend a stay at The Sofia."

The DEXTRO Little Italy, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and very walkable to little Italy."

Omni San Diego Hotel at the Ballpark

10/10 Excellent

"Overall stay was great. Staff was nice and hotel is in a great location"

Pendry San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"All good"

The US Grant, a Luxury Collection Hotel, San Diego

8/10 Good

"It’s good location downtown and hotel is nice and clean and overall it was a good experience and I have stayed there a handful of times."

The Westin San Diego Bayview

10/10 Excellent

"Property was clean and the bay view from my room was lovely. Westin is located within walking distance of major attractions/ landmarks (Little Italy, Seaport Village, Gaslamp District, Embarcadero). I would stay there again."

The Bristol Hotel San Diego

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and comfortable, except for the temperature. The room was at 78 when I checked in, and there weren't instructions on how to use the thermostat. The young man at the front desk in the evening was terrible. Condescending, one-word answers, acted as if I were stupid for asking questions. He just couldn't be bothered to help with anything. You know who was GREAT? The valet. He stepped in to help each time Mr. couldn't-be-bothered brushed me off. He was more attentive from OUTSIDE the building than the desk guy was. Plus the valet took extraordinary care of my car while it was in the hotel's possession. Not likely I'll choose the same hotel next time I'm in San Diego. Too many other options."
