Top National City Hotel Reviews

Bahia Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful resort"

California Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"We stayed 3 nights, they never did the room during our stay. They didn't change the towels. For a family of 4, we almost run out of toilet paper. The elevator took a while to get up to the 3rd floor when we left with our luggages (like 10-15 minutes for a 4 floor hotel). Perhaps, it was very close to disney (like a 30 minutes walk) so it's totally possible to go by walk and save on parking fees. There is a lot of uber riding to disneyland and the room was clean and confortable. Globally we enjoy our stay."

The Dana on Mission Bay

10/10 Excellent

"This is our second trip in which we have stayed at The Dana! We really enjoy it! Great restaurant with firepit tables, food is wonderful. Location is perfect to the beach and access to the freeway. We have booked the jr suite with a bay view, and this past trip was the marina view. We will definately be back!"
