Top City Heights Hotel Reviews

Omni San Diego Hotel at the Ballpark

8/10 Good

"Excellent staff!! Access to ballpark rocked!! Need to update rooms bathroom!! Thx u!! Will be back!!!"

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at The Sofia Hotel! The hotel has so much charm and character, and the location was incredibly convenient for everything we wanted to do in San Diego. One thing that really stood out to us was the housekeeping. Our room was refreshed and tidied up every single day, which is something you just don’t find very often anymore! It was such a nice feeling coming back after a long day to a clean, refreshed room and a neatly made bed. Those little touches really made our stay feel special. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and overall we had a great experience. We would absolutely stay at The Sofia again on another trip to San Diego!"

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a fun well located super clean hotel with great entertainment and proximity to the fun gas lamp and Padres field. Pool is small a somewhat lame - but expected for a rooftop. Our coffee machine was malfunctioning but again… we could have asked for a replacement and that’s on us."

Paradise Point Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"This hotel is very central and a good base. The room was clean and a good size. Moving around the property is a good way to make your step mark. Dining options are limited to 2 restaurants on premises and a market. Will recommend to bring your own snacks and water if you have a large group. Has a marina in place and you have multiple rental options. The views of the cove are great"
