California Suites Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Good Value for your money . Staff helpful and friendly."
Gaylord Pacific Resort & Convention Center
10/10 Excellent
"More poolside chairs than most resorts, never a problem finding a spot. Food at the hotel store was fresh and surprisingly good. Treo breakfast buffet was pretty good but too expensive. Pools were very nice, lazy river a bit short but nice. Gym was excellent. Comfortable room with great view."
Bahia Resort Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"I had a very nice stay at the Bahia Resort Hotel and would definitely recommend it. The property itself is beautiful, and I really appreciated the free parking. I stayed in a garden-view room, which was clean, comfortable, and well kept. The staff throughout the resort were also very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. I especially appreciated how helpful Guest Services was. I needed to print a document during my stay, and all I had to do was email it to them. They printed it for me right away at no additional charge. There were a couple of unexpected inconveniences during my stay, but neither would prevent me from returning. Both restaurants had unfortunately run out of pastries, so gelato was pretty much the only dessert option available. The second happened in the middle of the night, at around 3:10 a.m., when the battery on the fire alarm ran out and the alarm became quite loud. However, I understand that things like this happen and are outside of the hotel’s control. I really appreciated how quickly they had security respond and take care of the issue. Overall, everything was great. The property is beautiful, and the beach looked especially nice at night. I arrived later in the evening and left the following morning, so I didn’t have a chance to enjoy the pool area or many of the other amenities the resort has to offer. Even though my stay was short, it was a very pleasant experience, and I would definitely consider staying here again."

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego
10/10 Excellent
"We had an amazing stay at the Hard Rock Hotel San Diego! The hotel was clean, the customer service was excellent, and everyone was so friendly and helpful. The luggage and valet staff were especially amazing throughout our entire stay. Our room also had an incredible view overlooking Petco Park—it honestly felt like having a rooftop bar right outside our window! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again."
