Top Mission Valley Hotel Reviews

Homewood Suites by Hilton San Diego Hotel Circle/SeaWorld Area

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect area to stay at as it’s right next to everything! My daughter enjoyed it and we did too! Great for families and little ones"

Kings Inn San Diego

8/10 Good

"This was a great place to stay for a few days. Each room is its own building (almost) there is a garage on each side of your room one for you and one for the next room. It makes it incredibly quiet. They have a large gate that closes late at night for added security. The only issue we had was the cold water on the sink did not work. I waited to tell them when we checked out as it was not that big of a deal to us. I would definitely be willing to stay here again."

Crowne Plaza San Diego - Mission Valley by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Last minute trip to SD and booked Crowne Plaza. So glad I did. Hotel is conveniently located so downtown, Gas lamp, Petco Park, Mission Beach all a short distance away. Staff was polite and helpful in every way. Property was clean and well maintained with plenty of places to chill and relax including a koi pond. I will definitely consider staying here on my next trip to the area’s"

Legacy Resort Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"I really enjoyed this hotel- great easy location and clean property! It sounds picky- I could not find a way to turn the light off on the balcony- it was really cool having a balcony but I wanted to sleep with the curtains open and couldn’t e of the balcony light. Otherwise the staff was very kind and accommodating and i would absolutely stay again!"
