Top San Diego Central Library Hotel Reviews

Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

8/10 Good

"I’ve stayed here every year for the past 3 or 4 years, and when it was the Solamar before that. It would seem that they need to look at their linen supply. Worn out towels with holes are not very impressive. They were probably put into service when the Hotel was rebranded (Margaritaville Label was on there). I still like the place….. but….."
