"Great hotel"
The staff here is excellent - the room had its issues - but I think many people staying in SD hotels have the same complaint, they can be loud when you're trying to sleep. Friends at the Marriott said they heard the train all night. I heard traffic. So maybe request a room high up?Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Business trip"
Apart from the very noisy renovation across the road at Horton plaza starting before 7am every weekday, it was a good stay. Had to get up early anyway...Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great place for a comfortable stay"
They're excellent here and the hotel is very impressive. My only concern was that the line to check in didn't seem to be moving very quickly, and they didn't seem to be calling other attendants. That aside, excellent.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The room was delayed for availablity and the room was quite warm. When asked to cool it down, they said it only goes to 65 (a warm 65). The breakfasts were delicious. The best thing was the concierge, Brooks. He was extremely helpful and was able to answer all of my questions. The hotel should be VERY proud to have him as an employee. The room was quiet. […] I was told if you face the garden, it is the quietest. I think if it were a true 5 star hotel, the bird poo would be gone off the window sils. Overall, I enjoyed my stay.

"Fantastic staff"
The staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. When I needed to change rooms, they made it happen quickly and easily. The only mark down was for cleanliness, the white chair in the room needed a good cleaning. Everything else was great!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"A 5 Star Hotel but where is the coffee"
I don't think asking for a cup of coffee at 6:20 in the morning is unreasonable. People leave for airports early and I, for one, like having a cup of coffee for the road. It would be easy to have coffee service in the lobby available for the early AM departing guests. When I asked if there was coffee available the correct response would have been "let […] me get you some. How do you take it?" Not "the restaurant is not open yet". Lack of coffee would not prevent me from staying here again just seems like a missed guest service opportunity. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"I will stay in another hotel next time"
In this luxury hotel, I naively assumed that when Wi-Fi was provided, it would be free. Finding out that I had incurred what I felt were unreasonably high charges for checking my email was a surprise. I also assumed that this 1910 hotel was historic because it was advertised as such, and that's the principal reason I booked it. But the poor hotel has […] been so extensively remodeled and trendily decorated that it has lost any feeling of historic ambience and authenticity. Very sad. That homeless men and women panhandled me as soon I went outside was even sadder, especially since many of the homeless men sitting and sleeping on nearby sidewalks and benches are Navy veterans who hold cardboard signs that state their year of enlistment. In contrast, I also saw large numbers of well-bred, well-groomed and well-behaved dogs being walked near the hotel. Given a choice, I'd rather lead a dog's life in San Diego and stay at another hotel! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great stay at The US Grant!!"
I was down there this past weekend for Labor Day. The hotel is very nice and conveniently located in downtown SD. I'd stay there again!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Grant Hotel"
The facilities at the Hotel are adequate. Its location is ideal if you prefer to be in a downtown location. However, the attention of the personnel is not up to par for a , supposedly, four or five star rating. The staff at valet are the only ones that deserve to be congratulated followed by the receptionists. The rest need substantilal training in […] courtesy , attention to detail and customer attention. The breakfast experience at the hotel restaurant was truly dismal. Also our room was not made up until really late in the day. The service center answering the phone must have been on vacation All in all, I would seek another Hotel for my next San Diego stay. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Beautifully appointed rooms. Gracious staff.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Wonderful Hotel in San Diego"
The US Grant is simply a wonderful hotel for business or pleasure. The rooms are a pleasant change from the big box hotels, the location is close to the Gaslamp district and the hotel restaurant is quite good. All this at bargain rate through Hotels.com!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Downtown gem: classic & hip"
The location is prefect if you are going out downtown! The gentleman at the front desk couldn't be nicer when getting checked-in. The bed is so comfortable. And everywhere you look is just beautiful. I love the rich classic textiles & the modern art all over this hotel. I will definitely be staying here again :)Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Wotrth ever penny, absolutely fabulous"
This is the first time I have written a review for anything. This was a gamble as we normally stay on the water in San Diego. We were so delighted with the service, convenience (with the trolley) and luxury. We felt pampered as the congenial staff went out of their way to satisfy our every request or need. An extra perk for us was the trolley pick up […] and drop off at the convention center was actually a shorter walk than if we had stayed in hotels adjacent to the convention center. The trolley ride was only 7 minutes both ways to our seminars as opposed to the walk to the Marriott, Embassy etc. The staff was outstanding in everyway. I do recommend NOT staying on the side of ths the element of the Plaza Hotel as there is the element of homelessness. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"US Grant Hotel San Diego"
Positive: Beautiful old hotel that has been refurbished very nicely. Room was clean, elegantly outfitted and bed comfortable. Negative: Few people at registration desk (actually only one when I arrived). The fitness center is tiny for a hotel of this stature. Overall: I would stay here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"excellent"
Superb hotel, excellent service. One shortcoming was that rooms didn't have balconies and windows could be opened only by 10cm.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Awesome Stay"
What a gorgeous hotel. This will not be my last stay st the US Grant. The customer service the best I've experienced this far in my travels. I can't wait to return to San Diego!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Fabulous Experience"
The Staff at the US Grant Hotel far exceeded my expectations. Each staff member I encountered or interacted with was exceptionally polite, gracious, helpful, and went out of their way to assure my needs and preferences were met. I couldn't have asked for a more pleasant and enjoyable stay.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Sumptuous Hotel - bit of a gritty area"
The US Grant is truly a historic and luxurious hotel. Never thought that the use of chocolate brown and royal blue (?) could be so succesful. Very elegant lobby and great rooms too. It is downtown so not too much of a view -and the neighborhood is a bit "grity" - althought it is right across the street from Horton Plaza - a big shopping mall. US […] Grant provides a very different feel and stay from other hotels - it is a well done historic hotel - all the staff are helpful and professional. Yes - there was a wedding on Saturday night - but it was fun to sit in the lobby a bit and watch the crowd glide by. Not too far from the Convention Center either.

"Missing some of the basics"
When we arrived and the bellhop helped us with our luggage, he left it unattended downstairs for 20 minutes. We came back down to check on it after going up to our room and relaxing for a second and it was still there! Additionally, there was mold in our vent in the room. Other than that, it is a nice hotel. I would not consider it a 5 star since there […] is no pool or spa on site. The chocolates they leave on the pillow are nice. For the money spent, you could stay someplace nicer. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"New owners were taken by interior decorator."
The US Grant has dark walkways in the upstairs residential area. Maids were intrusive. Internet charges were ridiculous in light of room prices. Front desk was great and were valet parking. Restaurant was fine. Will not stay there againGenuine Hotels.com guest review

Great hotel for once in a lifetime experience. Pricey for more than one nightGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"My new 'favorite' hotel :)"
From the staff to the great service, to the amazing small touches (chocolates on the pillow), this is the greatest place to stay in San Deigo. The location can't be beat and the hotel beds are super comfortable. Thanks for a great stay!Genuine Expedia guest review
"uarter"
This is a classic old hotel that was redecorated several years back. The maintenance overall was poor as I had three bulbs burned out in my room. Someone should be checking these things. Also, while the decor was stylish, it was not practical. The sink, for example, had no place to put a shave kit. In fact, had no place for the toiletries that they […] leave and they had to stack them on the toilet tank top. Also, the minibar, which is expensive snacks everywhere, is triggered so that if you so much as pick up a bottle to read the label, they automatically charge you and then add a 10% service charge onto already expensive items. Location was great for central downtown and access to the Gaslamp Quarter. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"A gem in downtown San Diego"
I travel alot (pleasure and business) and this was truly one of the most pleasurable experiences I'v had in some time. The public areas (lobby and restaurant) are stunning and the rooms are very classy. All in an art deco style with a contemporary flair. The service was also outstanding. They recently (a few years ago) underwent a renovation and it […] really shows. I look forward to my next stay at the US Grant! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Top notch hotel experience"
The room service food was from their 4 star restaurant. Everything from the promptness to the preparation of the food, to the presentation and utensils was just superb.. The bed was extremely comfortable -- the bathroom was immaculate. Great view out the window of the city sights and sounds, of this historic and lively neighborhood.. Jazz wafting in […] from the restuarant as you cross the lobby. Prompt elevators, terrific staff. Just everything was all you could hope for. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great Convention Hotel"
This hotel is far enough away that you don't feel trapped by convention activities but close enough that it is a pleasurable walk to the convention center.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Perfect hotel!"
Simply wonderful hotel that was a great place to stay while in San Diego for a conference. Incredibly easy walking distance to the convention center, and everything you could want! The surrounding Gaslamp District is a must see, and the hotels location was just perfect. The staff was also amazing, and the nightly turn down service with complimentary […] water and chocolates helped make the stay even taht much better! VERY inexpensive hotel for what you get - I would have easily guessed the rates to be double or triple what I actually paid. This is a great hotel and a must stay in the area.
