Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Gaslamp/Convention Center

Brenda & Claudia are the best! They made my experience extremely enjoyable! I can’t wait for my next trip to San Diego to stay here again! The sun is very warm and full of light. The wind is refreshing and there’s a beautiful aroma in the air. (I’m trying to meet the 200-word minimum for this review)

Not really up to my standards. The room kind of reminded me of one of those Japanese capsule hotels. I used a combination of a certificate and points for two nights in August 2023, as did a friend for a Dodgers Padres game. Unfortunately we each had to cancel the second night, and we were told that the points would be credited back to our accounts. Nothing on our reservation indicated that an early checkout would result in a loss of points. In fact the manager told me, "Look for yourself, see the screen", supposedly showing me the refunded points. In retrospect I should have taken a screen shot with my phone. I'm still trying to get my points refunded back. My friend finally received his points back a couple of weeks ago, after having to continually call Marriott. He is a Lifetime Platinum Elite member, and I'm only Gold Elite. So maybe that helps explain their lack of service in my case. The hotel apparently never responds to Marriott Corporate. The location is good. Excellent for catching a Padres game. In the future, I will probably check out the renovated Margaritaville Hotel next door. It was a great Kimpton hotel, and is probably even better now that it has been remodeled.

Valet was 65$, there is no other parking besides pay to park lots downtown that are in the open with homeless people roaming around. We paid for valet for safety. Honestly I don’t think the rates should have been as expensive while under construction. The front ENTRANCE itself was closed and under renovation with tarps everywhere. The bistro was closed due to construction. I do not believe I should be paying 250$ a night 65$ Valet for a basic king room while breakfast is closed/construction and appearance of entire lobby and front entrance and floors of halls are being redone completely. The great thing was location — Gaslamp is dirty and full of homeless (but you expect that now). That was not the issue as we expected that, but the location was great and in walking distance of everything—including right across the street from the club we had tickets to.

Hotel room was good; the music from across the street at Nova was too loud—even from the 12th floor. My car wasn’t valet’d…it stayed on the street all night.

There were no microwaves in the room. I’ve never hear of that in a prestigious hotel!

I only was there in no room service available at the hotel. They did not have a gym available as advertised due to construction. They even had the audacity to charge me an additional $140 for amenities.

Breakfast wasn’t included or dinner and you had to pay :( overall my stay was good and I liked they have the doors locked at night and you had to use your hotel card.

It's an excellent hotel

The hotel room was not very clean. The shower floor still had water marks and the faucet in the bathroom was hard operate. The bathroom was small and it didnt have alot of space to put your toiletries. I felt the springs on my back in the bed when I slept. It wasnt a comfortble bed. The hotel did not have a microwave and we had to go all the way to the first floor to use the microwave.
