San Diego is blessed with 100’s of awesome hotels, but if they don’t have an ocean or bay view or some other overriding amenity such as a golf course, don’t stay there unless you can’t afford to stay anywhere else. If you’ve come all this way to experience paradise on earth, then staying where you get an ocean or bay view is an ABSOLUTE MUST!
My staff and I personally reviewed over 200 hotels. We inspected at least two rooms at each hotel, visited the housekeeping department and the front desk. Then we reviewed the amenities including swimming
My staff and I personally reviewed over 200 hotels. We inspected at least two rooms at each hotel, visited the housekeeping department and the front desk. Then we reviewed the amenities including swimming pools, saunas, on property restaurants before recommending them. This is your assurance that you will get a good room.
To get an even better room, inspect the room before agree to stay there. Usually, you’ll get an okay room. But why settle for just any room when you can get a superior room with a view just by inspecting the room before agreeing to stay there.
RECOMMENDED HOTELS
If you’re NOT staying in a spectacular oceanfront hotel like La Jolla Shores Hotel or a romantic San Diego Harbor view hotel like Kona Kai Resort & Spa on Shelter Island, then staying in a good Sandiegan.com recommended hotel with excellent access to the rest of the city for a lot less money makes good sense. Stay in centrally located Mission Valley.
Back-in-the-day, Mission Valley’s Hotel Circle was where everyone stayed. That was before the downtown convention center was built. Two locally-owned hotels with restaurants on their property are The Kings Inn ($111) night and the classier and upgraded Town & Country Resort ($126) a night. If you are in the military, rates are even lower. Mission Valley is home to two major shopping centers, great restaurants, two golf courses, dozens of good hotels, and offers easy access to all attractions. Check rates before booking.
Also review the Mission Valley, which also includes a map and a legend.
