    Overall positive.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    No help with the bags upon checking in. No help with the bags when leaving. And people expect to be tipped? $450 for the room….for what? Pictures of the listing make this hotel look like it’s brand new. Feels like an old bank building masked as a hotel…oh wait

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Chose this hotel because it was walkable to the San Diego Civic Center, in case we didn’t want to Uber it. Hotel met our needs. Little pricey for overnight valet parking…$70. Would stay there again.

    It is a beautiful historical hotel that used to be a bank building - you can actually see a meeting room that's in an old vault/safe which is really cool. I booked this 30 minutes before I checked in and it was seamless. The front desk was so nice and helpful while the bartender was friendly and provided great recommendations of local eats and places to see. The rooms had great city views and were comfy. There's also a public parking garage around the corner. It was wonderful to experience the "old" Marriott hospitality.

    Very good

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Loved the location of the property as it is very central. Although there is no parking but the valet service (a bit pricy) but was quite good. There were a few things that I did not like about the property due to which I may not stay there again. First and foremost the attitude of the lady at the reception who checked us in was not at all welcoming. Quite disappointed in the general attitude of the receptionist. Not at all what we would expect from a Marriott reception staff. Secondly we had a booked a room for 5 people but when we went into the room we found out that the room did not have the option to sleep 5 people. The reception staff was quite dismissive of the fact that how 5 people would fit in and simply replied that this is the only room available. Poor response.

    This hotel has a neat history and is right in the heart of downtown. Their check in staff was very kind. They did say we’d have maid service; however, it was not done. Not a big deal overall. Staff helped the kids set-up their gaming system when they encountered an issue. Would stay here again. Thank you.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    The staff were so kind, the historical location is so nice and the decor is amazing Being at downtown a lot of homeless

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Location is convenient to the House of Blues, next door. Gaslamp District is a few blocks down the street. Room was decent and had a historic charm. Wish it had convenient/low priced parking, and there are homeless around.

    Exceptional

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Great place to stay, right outside Gaslamp. Close enough to walk and far enough to be away from the riff raff. This was a great location for what we needed amd wanted

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Enjoyed the greatest long vacation, part of it involved a 4 night stay in San Diego where I haven't spent a day nor a night in a few decades. I knew a lot about the building which used to be a bank. Got the best room with the best view, looking south.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    It was close to our concert at Petco Park. The room was not accessible any earlier than 4:00 pm. There was no handicap parking, actually no parking. There was valet service but I wasn’t aware that it was $70 per night. Public parking while cheaper at $45, that was per entrance. It would have been $90 for that day or more.

    Overpriced.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Passable

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Location in regard to proximity to restaurants and activities. Overpriced.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    illing to pay extra for all of this but they werent I finally did an door dash order and had it delivered and they agreed to receive it and put it in the room. But when we got there everything was just on the table or the fridge, nothing laid out. Didn't even put the flowers in a vase. And instead of sparling cider (like Martinellis) is was just two sodas. The note was just on a hotel postcard. I mean there was some effort at the end so I don't want to blame the indivial workers, just shows that hotel culture itself is not one of going out of their way and not really a place to go if you want extra care and attention. We still have an enjoyable weekend and it was great way to The hotel is a cool building and I love that they have kept many of the historical features. The basement is super cool with the original vaultsetx.
