San Diego Hotels with Bars

Convenient location and walking distance to the bay. Spacious room with luxury design. Bathroom with privacy at the back of the room. Very comfy bedding and nice staff. The coffee dispenser was empty in the lobby, will be perfect if refilled it in time.

We were pleasantly surprised with the Kings Inn!  After some of the reviews, we were wary that it wasn't going to be clean, but it was totally fine!  Our room was great - the floor probably could have been cleaned more, but for an inn that opens directly to the outside, we didn't think it was bad.  The front desk people were very kind and helpful.  The pool was great and so nice that it wasn't freezing cold!  They supplied plenty of towels.  We didn't have breakfast there.  We were thankful for it's close location to lots of restaurants and several good beaches!  We'd stay here again!  It's hard to find a decent place to stay in San Diego that doesn't cost a ton - so we were very thankful.  It was also very convenient to be able to do laundry if needed - we just dried all the things we used at the beach (for a small fee).  One of the cleaning ladies was extremely kind and helpful when my son, who uses crutches for cerebral palsy, slipped and fell - she helped me get him up and then helped with getting a chair for him to sit in.  I really appreciated her thoughtfulness and help!  Thank you for a good night's stay for our family in San Diego! 

The hotel is located on a peninsula, with the bay front and back, and the scenery is beautiful. It is a few kilometers away from downtown, so it is convenient to drive to shopping and eating. There is a parking lot downstairs for 30 knives a day. The front desk service attitude is very good, and the check-in is very fast. The room facilities are a bit old, and there is a small balcony with a sea view. The bathroom is generally clean, but a cockroach was found in the bathroom.

Upon check-in, I was asked to pay for the room, which I did. However, I noticed the amount charged was higher than the total from my original booking. I asked the receptionist (I believe his name was Raul, though I’m not entirely sure) why that was. I explained the amount I had been quoted during booking. He then mentioned, almost as an afterthought, that a $150 deposit is taken at check-in. I told him this should have been communicated before processing the payment, as it’s standard practice to inform guests of such charges upfront. While I wasn’t pleased, I went ahead and paid. I also mentioned that I had submitted a request in advance for a room away from the elevator with a good view. He told me the hotel was fully booked, which confused me, since I had booked well in advance and included my request at the time. He assigned me Room 503, which was directly across from the elevator, not away from it. I didn’t want to complain as I had just traveled over 12 hours from London to San Diego and was extremely tired. I planned to grab some dinner and get straight to bed. However, the room was quite noisy—there was a lot of hallway activity, and the family next door had their TV volume quite high. I decided not to go downstairs and complain, hoping I could just fall asleep. Unfortunately, I was woken up around 3 a.m. by a crying child, and again at 5 a.m. At that point, I was extremely frustrated and went to speak to the receptionist on duty, Matthew. I explained everything to him, and he was very understanding. He said there was availability and offered to move me immediately…this was surprising, considering the earlier claim that the hotel was full. He moved me to Room 204. While it wasn’t far from the elevator either, he assured me it would be quieter since there were no large families on that floor. He was right—the room was much more peaceful, and I appreciated his help. At checkout, I saw the same receptionist who had checked me in and decided not to approach him. Instead, I spoke to Antonio at the other desk. I asked about the deposit, and he informed me it would take 2–3 business days to be released. Naturally, I wasn’t thrilled to hear this, especially after the earlier issues, so I shared my entire experience with him. He apologized sincerely and mentioned the initial receptionist may need additional training, which they would look into. Overall, the stay was decent for a short 3-night visit, but the start could have been handled much better.

Beautiful scenery, complete facilities, and a great pool. Perfect for a vacation with kids. We'll definitely choose this hotel again next time. The evening bonfire was a nice touch! 👍

Great views and comfort, but watch out for extra charges! I recently stayed at the San Diego Marriott Marquis and Marina. While the hotel itself is very nice, I encountered an issue that significantly impacted my experience. Despite having booked and fully prepaid my stay through Trip.com, the hotel attempted to charge me an additional $45 per day plus tax for the so-called ”Destination Fee” at check-in. After contacting the hotel, they refunded the fee after multiple letters and two weeks. This seems to reflect a policy of charging the Destination Fee by default, regardless of whether it has already been prepaid through third-party booking platforms. I worry that many guests either don't notice the charge or aren't aware that it may already be included in their booking. That being said, breakfast at the hotel was delicious and the facilities are generally high-quality. If the billing issue hadn't occurred, my stay would have been much more enjoyable. Overall, it's a lovely hotel in a great location—but guests should carefully check their bill and be prepared to follow up if something doesn't add up!

The room is large, the facilities are decent, the hotel shuttle bus is very good, the hotel is located on the bay and the scenery is very good

I was on a business trip for a meeting. The hotel is very large and has several buildings. You can order breakfast in the restaurant for about $25.

A very nice hotel, very close to UCSD, suitable for couples to book a room, but the lights are too dim, and parking is also charged and a deposit is required by credit card. You must have a car to stay here. The room is very quiet but the environment is not very good, the facilities are relatively old, even worse than a new three-star hotel.

The facilities are a bit old, and you have to climb a hill to get to the main entrance of the hotel. It is not far from old town transit and fashion valley, so it is quite convenient.
