This hotel was so unique it transported me to another place, which was just what I needed after a long work day. The restaurants were also very different and delicious. My room was beautifully decorated and I marveled at who the designer might have been. I will stay there again when in San Diego.

My favorite hotel in San Diego. Staff is always helpful, kind and professional. The rooms are comfortable, clean, eclectic and possibly the best minibar selection of top shelf products anywhere. The property invites you to discover and play and socialize. The bar and food programs are superb.

It was during xmas season, so it was crazy busy. Lot of so called influencers taking pics all over the place, which was annoying. Couldn't check in til after 4pm, but staff were all friendly and the place was beautifully decorated. Rooms are good size with an incredible mini-bar, never seen one like it. Would likely stay again, we are local so don't stay in hotels in SD much.
