    The Sofia Hotel Downtown - San Diego Intl Airport (SAN)

    A short guide to Downtown - San Diego Intl Airport (SAN)

    San Diego’s waterfront airport lies northwest of downtown, which is home to the San Diego Convention Center, PetCo Park stadium, and the Gaslamp Quarter’s. That historic neighborhood’s restaurants and bars are the hub of the city’s nightlife. Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo form a green swath in this urban jungle. Offshore, Coronado Island offers postcard views of the city skyline.

    This hotel had everything I neede. I was there for a conference , the Ralph's grocery store was close and I was able to get snacks and even have a hot soup handy, more so that I was jet lagged and morning time for me was at 4 am . Everything was close , I walked to the Seaport village about 1.5 miles away and enjoyed the walk . Safe and not noisy . […] I enjoyed the yoga room as well. They provided water in the room that was a surprise. I will stay there every time I visit san Diego for sure. Read more

    I drove down from Los Angeles for a two night stay and I read other reviews first. If you see 1 negative review it makes you doubt, but I took a chance and I was very pleasantly surprised. My room was small but extremely clean, nice, dark wood, cozy, comfortable, intimate and very unique because it was built in 1926, but it's also been modernized. Pros: […] Great internet connection, TV, microwave, bed, sheets, closet space, adjoining restaurant downstairs, not overcrowded at all, it feels like your own personal hotel and the gym is perfectly kept, close walking distance to 7-11 and other restaurants, 2-5 blocks. 8 blocks from Ocean, great A/C. Negatives? Parking is $30 overnight and hotel access is not simple as it's on a main street, parking lot view and small space. Downtown SD also has many homeless... but not just here, everywhere. If you like high class or a hotel that reminds you of a 1940's movie, this is for you. And it's safe if you have a family, and I do. It's perfect for 2 people, no more. Very intimate and unclogged and I guarantee you won't regret it. This review is real, I'm a writer in TV from LA, not that that means anything. I was very pleased overall. You're right in the heart of things and it's a little cheaper. Read more

    Very nice old hotel in downtown San Diego. The room was decent but small. Was good for a one night stay but would recommend a larger one for a longer stay. Also lack of on street parking required valet parking.

    The hotel is in a great location if you are a walker - about 10 minutes from Gaslamp and 10 minutes from the ferry to Coronado. The restaurant is charming and has a good vibe. The Coffee Bean is right in the lobby, which is a big score for those who need caffeine periodically during the day. I was however appalled that we were not informed upon check-in […] that a new restaurant was being built DIRECTLY under our room. It sounded like they were going to come through the floor...all day long...starting at 8am. Hammers, drills, and lord knows what else was what woke us up and kept us from even having a basic conversation within our room. Thankfully we knew our days would be spent away from the hotel and given the explosion of female luggage all over the room, we decided we would not complain to move rooms. Call us crazy, but it was a wake-up call of sorts - one that we rushed to get away from. Read more

    Stayed here for 1 night with wife and 2 kids. Pros: Front desk staffs were very nice. Location is close to everything. Price was good compared to other hotels nearby. Room was clean. Cons: Room is small. We had a room with 2 full beds and only had enough room to walk. Bathroom is even smaller, had stand up shower and toiler (that's it). Sink is in hallway […] next to entrance. Water from shower splattered all over the floor. Might not bother some folks but the AC was loud. Enough that both wife and agreed that it was annoying. Summary: If you're looking for a nice hotel, right price, clean, and good location, this is good place for you. If you're looking spacious comfort to spread out, this might not be for you. Read more

    This is a well-conceived boutique hotel. The rooms are somewhat small but ergonomically designed (except for the desk chair, which was large and in the way). Nice amenities, comfortable bed with good linens and pillows. It's a short walk to restaurants, bars and shopping, and the hotel restaurant, Current Brasserie, is decent. There are a couple of […] "gotchas." They only have $30 a day valet parking and they charge an additional 7.95 per day for a resort fee--largely services that I did not use--such as HBO, small fitness center, bike usage, a weekend city walking tour. This is a disappointment, especially since I only learned about it a check-in. For a small city hotel, this is a very poor practice, as you have no choice but to pay it. I have doubts about staying at this otherwise nice hotel for this reason alone. Read more

    We had come for spring break and was very pleasantly surprised by the beautiful (albeit tiny) room. It had a microwave, a couple of water bottles, refrigerator, flat-screen with HBO - just ideal, and for the price, the location was excellent - walking distance to a plethora of dining options and a mall. I wish the front desk was a little friendlier […] but didn't really need to talk to them aside from checking in and out. Housekeeping was efficient, and valet was friendly and very helpful. Read more

The room was well appointed, clean and comfortable. Location is fantastic; within walking distance to many area attractions. The restaurant downstairs is a bit expensive though; 3 appetizers […] and two drinks a piece for two people = $110..... There are plenty of great places to eat for more reasonable prices. Read more

We asked for it to be replaced & when we returned to our room later that day, it was still […] out. Figured it would be replaced the next day...nope.

    That rooms at the Sofia are quite small. In fact, our bed took up practically the entire living/sitting area. With that said, I never felt too enclosed. The sink is outside of the restroom/shower, which I've never been a fan of, but if that's all I have to say on the less-than-positive side, then that's not too shabby.

    Rooms were tiny, not the best service, front desk was aloof and unattentive. Valet was worst ever, they have me the car and swore they had given me the key, after arguing that he had not i told him to check his pockets again and they were there!! Showers are small and do not have any doors or curtains, water gets all over the bathroom floor, and by […] bathroom I mean more like a closet! The sink isn't even in the bathroom it is outside by the door! For the same price I would stay at any Read more

    overall, i felt the room is too small, even though i have upgraded to a king bedroom. but it is still small and not worth for a $250 value. but the location is not that bad btw.

    We just stood the night but it was beautiful. We were upgrade to a larger room for the night at no additional charge, so that was a wonder surprise. We were not that far from the Gas lamp District so restaurants were super close. The only don't fall of the facility is that the rest room is super tiny in the room that we were in....especially the shower. […] But other than that excellent! Read more
