Top Casa de Balboa Hotel Reviews

The Neon Elm Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good for my stay definitely close to some areas of you really want to walk but probably would be better off lyfting or using uber"

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"The room appeared to be newly refurbished and the bathroom was nice. The main lobby looks amazing."

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

8/10 Good

"Good have a in ident with the air conditioner and concierge was very helpful they resolve the problem , staff very friendly breakfast excelente"

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

10/10 Excellent

"This place is in a great location. The free coffee is nice in the morning. The workout rooms are great, and the pool."

Hampton Inn San Diego-Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I saw 2.5 and 3-star reviews for this property, so I was a bit concerned. I was very pleasantly surprised at how perfect this hotel is. They have underground self parking (yes for a daily fee, but reasonable for the area), free breakfast included, very clean and quiet and modern rooms, three elevators (so you're not waiting forever), and a great location close to Little Italy and to Seaport Village (walking distance). I have stayed at hundreds of hotels over my 40 years of traveling domestically and internationally, and I would give this hotel a 4.5 rating! Only disappointment was that they could not give me a late check out, or would extend the checkout but wanted a $25 fee.(especially since I'm a Hilton Honors member). Oh well."

Omni San Diego Hotel at the Ballpark

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel! (Would have loved a midnight snacks concession.:))"

Ash&9th

8/10 Good

"The rooms were nice and clean. We stayed there for an event at Petco Park. It's walking distance. The parking was way expensive at $50 daily when it should be part of your stay or at a cheaper price for guests. Yes I would recommend just keep in mind that extra fee added to your hotel tab if you have your own car."

Marriott Vacation Club®, San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"great customer service here, didn’t park but luckily there are options nearby. Pretty receptive and had a great breakfast. 10/10 would recommend , will be staying here again."

Little Italy Inn - Limited Service Apart Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"it gets a bit loud at night but hotel is very comfortable in a really great location will stay again"
