Top California Tower Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express San Diego Downtown by IHG

8/10 Good

"I stayed 4 nights and would book here again. The central downtown location is very convenient to local attractions. I felt very safe with the card key system and the restricted access parking under the building. I had a lovely view from my sliding door to balcony room, a rarity in newer hotels. The breakfast was really tasty and fresh which is one of the important features to me when I choose a hotel. I didn't rate with 5 stars only because the 1960s building, while well maintained, is showing its age such as the Las Vegas carpet in the hallways and the rooms could be a little more spacious. But overall, I enjoyed my stay here."

The DEXTRO Little Italy, BW Premier Collection

8/10 Good

"Staff was nice they accidentally charged me twice for the deposit so that was inconvenient waiting for that duplicates pending charge to fall off. Bed and pillows were comfortable the only thing bad thing about the room was the bathroom door! it was a frosted glass barn door - Didn't lock - frosted glass didn't provide enough privacy"

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I made this reservation to go see Dax in concert at House of Blues. It was perfect. Location, location, location. I was able to walk all about the Gaslamp district and eat at some of the terrific restaurants near by. The House of Blues is just up the street, it was ideal. The Marriott Courtyard chains are my go to places to stay. This property is very well kept and secure. My room was clean and tidy, and the staff very helpful."

Little Italy Inn - Limited Service Apart Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location, awesome being in little Italy and close to so much. Bathroom was clean, except towels were a bit iffy. Room very small and had a smell. Front desk staff friendly. Room had air conditioning and ceiling fan. Suited for 1 or 2 nights max."

Palihotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and property. Front desk staff was helpful and fun. The restaurant food was delicious and I had an amazing dinner there (must try the sticky pudding dessert) and breakfast every morning. The best part of the restaurant was every morning Christina was bright, cheerful, and a true joy to be around. I had one less cup of coffee thanks to her great energy."
