Top Waterfront Park Hotel Reviews

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

8/10 Good

"Balcony"

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown Little Italy

8/10 Good

"Everything is great at this hotel except the parking is very tight! Full size truck or bigger, Good luck! Street parking meter maximum 2 hours. 6 hour out side parking 6 hours for $45. Hotel is great, but if you’re driving and not with a smaller vehicle. Caution cause meter enforcement works at night also."

Omni San Diego Hotel at the Ballpark

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience for a baseball fan!"

Sheraton San Diego Resort

8/10 Good

"Connecting rooms will have thin doors and our next door room was loud. We couldn't sleep because it was noisy but we let the staff know and they were able to move us to a more quiet room."

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good!"

The Westin San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I stayed in the Jr. Suite with balcony. Room was clean however the bathroom pocket door could barely open and close without using some muscle and two hands. The shower had no shelf for razor or a bar of soap (although had the soap dispenser mounted to wall). Staff was exceptional, having our 25th wedding anniversary getaway, staff provided a very nice signed card, polaroid pictures and pretty presentation in the room with champagne and balloon. Hotel has a great restaurant and bar as well! This is the 2nd time I've stayed at Weston due to great location in Gaslamp district and hotel amenities. We did not use the gym but used the small pool daily."
