The Sofia Hotel
Great stay, beautiful hotel. Not too far from the main strip in the gaslamp district or the train depot for people taking public transit. Plenty of stores and restaurants immediately around the hotel too. Valet staff were nice and very attentive too. Would recommend.

The staff were extremely helpful. I loved the room and the view was absolutely amazing, I would say that was my favorite part! Parking is connected to the building and the gift shop had essentials that you may have forgotten. There’s a Starbucks connected to the hotel as well😊. I would 100% come ...
