Really loved the staff and how historic the Sofia Hotel is. However, it could use an update (while still maintaining its integrity).

the hotel although is old looking, is quite modern. it still has old feel but has new fixtures. the room was very comfortable. staff was overly friendly, which was very nice when you are traveling. the coffee in the room was so great. we really loved the location, we walked about 4 square blocks around the hotel every direction. it is very centrally located. there is a new whole foods market 2 blocks away, it was very nice as well. thanks for a great stay.

I love the charm of this hotel. It had a classic 1920s hobby and public areas, but the rooms are modern contemporary and pleasing to the eye. I really appreciate the combination of classic and contemporary. Also a very convenient location for all of the dining and entertainment that we took in while in San diego. Enjoy your stay

Room was modern and the location is good. Bed wasn’t the best and would recommend bringing your own pillows. Parking price has increased from $40 to $46 a night in August 2026 and is in a public parking lot owned by a third party-so no dedicated parking spots for hotel guests. There was also fruit-infused water daily at the front desk when I went. Overall I would stay here again.

The bar on-site, Truva, was lovely. Location is excellent. The lobby had a nostalgic noir vibe. Rooms are small but cozy. Ours had a single small window but that's just the way the hotel was built. Convenient sink outside the bathroom setup allowed one person to shower while the other could use the sink in the room.
