Had a great stay at Carte Hotel San Diego Downtown, Curio Collection by Hilton. The rooms were modern, clean, and very comfortable. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the location is perfect for exploring downtown. The rooftop pool and views were definitely a highlight. Would absolutely stay here again!
The gym is amazing. Sauna, Steam Room, Towels, Lockers, Showers, massage chairs, lots of exercise equipmemt. Pool and Jacuzzi are very large as well. Highly Recommend!
We had a such a good experience with all the staff we interacted with. They have a great breakfast, and the breakfast staff remembered our drink orders after the first day. Bartenders were friendly and the drink menu was fun. Front desk staff always welcomed us back. We loved the location, it was quiet but close enough to walk to Little Italy.

Nice staff , great manager, my room was weird and sink kept clogging. Nice beds/ views , parking was expensive $70 night , $75 valet
Although checkin is guaranteed by 4P, our room was not ready when we arrived after 5P. Front desk staff couldn't really explain why. We had reservations at 6P and had to use their gym locker room to change and freshen up. They offered a drink at the rooftop bar but since we already had plans we couldn't enjoy it. Would stay again because the hotel is centrally located and easy to get around town. Room/bed was fine.
Staff was very courteous. They checked on me to make sure my stay was goinf well throughout my stay. The rooms were nice and clean. The rooftop restaurant and bar was very fun to watch the NFL Playoffs.
Started with Eva at check-in. Super friendly and informative. The room was really nice - beautiful finishes on the walls and in the bathroom. The make-up mirror is an especially nice touch. Although it was late and the area was closed, security guy allowed us into the pool area for a quick look. Valets were helpful with parking recommendations. The rooftop lounge was very cool. All in all, a lovely stay.
I recommend staying at Carte, it is a clean and modern hotel close to Little Italy and harbor area. Many dining options close and it is quiet. I have stayed at several hotels in downtown SD and this is my favorite!
Beautiful hotel and helpful staff. The gym is amazing.

Excellent location and very accessible to public transportation. The room was comfortable. The cleaning staff not at all efficient. Did not clean nor replace towels. Did not made the beds nor take the garbage out.
Did not have breakfast at the hotel.

When we booked, we stayed during the rock and roll marathon and the finish line was very close to the hotel. The restaurant downstairs was super busy the morning of the marathon but overall they did a good job
