San Diego — Traveler Guide
History comes alive in these extraordinary properties. Each hotel occupies a building with genuine heritage significance — whether a former palace, a converted monastery, an art-deco landmark, or a centuries-old townhouse — sensitively restored with contemporary comforts.

Gaslamp Quarter
The Michael Sheetz-designed anchor of the Gaslamp Quarter revival, with a resort-worthy pool deck that feels incongruous in an urban setting, Oxford Social Club and Lionfish restaurants that are genuine destination dining, and rooms that blend West Coast lightness with downtown sophistication. The best new hotel San Diego has built in years.

La Jolla
La Jolla's oldest hotel (1913), a colonial-revival building on Prospect Street with an elegant old-money atmosphere that the newer glass towers cannot replicate. Nine-Ten restaurant, under chef Jason Knibb, is consistently ranked among San Diego's best, and the village location puts excellent galleries, boutiques, and the Children's Pool seal colony within walking distance.

Coronado
The most famous resort in California — a National Historic Landmark Victorian wooden structure opened in 1888, painted brilliant white against the Pacific. The original Victorian building's turrets and gingerbread woodwork are extraordinary, and the beachfront setting is unmatched. The 2021 renovation added new villa buildings while preserving every inch of the original magic.

Gaslamp Quarter
A National Historic Landmark opened in 1910 by Ulysses S. Grant Jr. and recently restored to its Edwardian splendour, with a lobby that still hosts the most gracious afternoon tea in San Diego. The location adjacent to Horton Plaza and the Convention Center makes it the best-situated hotel in downtown for both leisure and business.

Gaslamp Quarter
A boutique within the Kimpton family that brings a playful California-meets-design aesthetic to the heart of the Gaslamp, with an excellent rooftop pool and bar (Jsix) and rooms that are genuinely stylish at prices significantly below the luxury tier. The complimentary evening wine hour is a nice Kimpton touch.

Downtown San Diego
A 1926 Beaux-Arts building converted into an independent boutique hotel with a rooftop terrace, thoughtfully designed rooms, and rates that are reliably among the best value for a well-located downtown San Diego stay. The ground-floor Currant American Brasserie is a reliable breakfast and dinner option.
