Top Balboa Stadium Hotel Reviews

Keating Hotel By At Mine Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"The front desk was attentive and caring and the room had a fun view over downtown gaslamp. Lots of things to do just a few steps away from the entrance. Will be staying again."

Palihotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Atmosphere was fantastic, staff was very friendly and helpful, perfect location near downtown, everywhere is walkable or a 10 min drive. They have a rooftop bar that has an excellent view and a restaurant connected to the main lobby that is delicious. Highly recommend."

Alma San Diego Downtown, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall, we enjoyed our two-day stay. We were a bit disappointed to learn that the "included breakfast" was actually a $50 credit for both of us, which, at the hotel's prices, covered only two coffees, one juice, and a single breakfast entrée to share. To be fair, the portion was generous and enough for both of us, but we would have appreciated a wider selection. We were also a bit concerned that the room rate was higher than the price quoted when we booked, especially since the hotel was already holding a $150 security deposit. It would have been nice if the room charge had simply matched the booking price, with the security deposit covering any additional charges. In the end, though, the total cost came out exactly as we had expected."

Hilton San Diego Bayfront

8/10 Good

"The hotel was nice and clean, and so was the room. My complaint with the room is that there's no air flow. The lowest you can set the room to is 68, can't even turn on the fan to circulate the air. The window is a solid piece of glass, so there's no opening it to get air flow or to enjoy the evening fresh air. The other complaint is with the front desk. I had to ask them a couple of things and they just seemed annoyed that I would even ask them. The hotel itself was greatly located, but I will pass on ever staying there again. 5 nights with a $625 incidental hold, then they kept $243 for their resort fee or whatever. Plus, if you drive, they charge $75 per night to park your car there, even if you're staying at the hotel."
