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.

I am a local and was excited to stay here initially, this hotel is BEAUTIFUL and in a wonderful location. However, in going along with this I expected fantastic service and was sadly disappointed. Problems with valet being full and not offering any other alternative (why don't you have overflow for guests?!), room service and the front desk not picking […] up the phone or calling us back, then taking almost an hour (and another phone call) to bring us our food. Finally, don't bother with the concierge for any night life. She will shrug her shoulders and brush you off. Very strange service for such a beautiful hotel, we sadly won't be staying here again.

"Great Service, Clean Rooms, Uncomfortable Bed"
The service at this hotel was very good. The room was clean and so was the hotel. My only complaint is that the bed was not comfortable at all. Because of this, I would not recommend that someone pay the money to stay here. The pillows were bad and the bed was hard. My boyfriend and I both got hardly any sleep which made for a difficult next day.Genuine Expedia guest review
"excellent location"
not happy with extra charges including internet, parking and couple of water bottle. total $47 extra charge/dayGenuine Expedia guest review
"Very dated"
Hotel was very dated. Probably was fantastic in the 70's. Lobby smelled like mothballs or your elderly grandmother's living room. Decor only missing plastic slipcovers and it would look like it as well.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Too Costly for me"
The stay was fine. There were extra costs, "optional" valet parking and "hotel" fee. Maybe this is normal. It's different decor than a normal hotel. Close enough to walk the Gaslamp District.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
""somewhat disappointing for the price""
Overall, somewhat disappointing for the price. This is a high-end hotel and should have been wonderful, but it was only ok.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Bygone era"
I'm sure that several years ago this was an awesome hotel.......This is an older hotel that could use some updating......has that musty smell (like an older person's home-furnishings are old and well-worn). The A/C never took the humidity out of the air so you always feel like you're damp. However, the entire staff was beyond excellent! Unfortunately, […] for the money, I would not go there again.

"Antique Upscale, clean but old."
This hotel is very nice, has an antique upscale feel to it. However being 4 young adults sharing a room, there were some noticeable amenities we wish were there. No pool or workout area. There is a box in the room that appears to be a refrigerator however will only keep things slightly cool, meaning do not buy any perishables and keep in "fridge". The […] staff was very friendly, but we mainly only slept in the room. The facility fee is a bit of a joke cause they don't have any facilities to mention. Free internet was very nice, and the turn down service made us feel special :) Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"very pretty, but...."
The hotel is very pretty, this was my second time staying here but this time I wasn't as satisfied as the first time. The shower water is painful, it has way too much pressure. The shower & bathroom sink water did not drain, I showered in ankle high water... Yuck! The worst part was being woken up at 6am from construction. When I checked out the girl […] smiled & said in a cheery voice that it was for their new pool. Well, the pool does me no good & an advanced notice would have been nice. Also, the mini fridge was not working so they slapped a sticker on there stating it was a cooling device not a fridge to not put dairy products, last time I stayed we had a working fridge.... Cheapos didn't want to fix it that's all! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not quite up to par...."
This is a dated, Versailles style hotel not far from Gaslamp but several (>11) blocks from the convention center and Petco park. Not really quite in the heart of it. It had a dated feel, and frankly lacked cool in many ways. Yes, the staff was courteous and kind. But staying here is sort of like being the star of the JV team- you know that the much […] more swanky, fun, modern, better located hotels are not far away- and simply better. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
This hotel served its purpose which was proximity to the convention center. The room is nice and clean, and the turndown service was a treat. My only major complaint was that you are charged the $15 a day resort fee. I have no problem with this, except for the fact that they did not have a resort! The pool and jacuzzi were not functioning (apparently […] they were remodeling), and the gym was a joke (also being remodeled). So what exactly am I paying $15 a day for? I asked the front desk this and they could not give me an answer... for this reason I will not stay here again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Westgate Hotel - San Diego Civic Center"
The hotel was very convenient to the downtown area, Gaslight District, harbor area. Trolley tracks are right outside on Avenue C and a day pass gets you anywhere without using your car. The hotel is decorated in a high class manner but needs some updating and overall maintenance. Our biggest complaint was lack of control of temperature in our room. […] Regardless of the setting of thermostat it remained too cool. I understand they were having HVAC problems. The television was not HD and control through their antiquated service was cumbersome. Parking is $35 day in and out valet only. With these items, it seemed a little overpriced. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice hotel, too many high hidden fees!"
$15 mandatory fee at the time of check-in, $32 per day for valet - This hotel has too many hidden fees. It was a nice hotel, but I do not like hotels that do not tell me how much things are at the beginning and slap me with a bill in the end.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Vintage Comfort"
My first impression of the hotel was good. I enjoyed the vintage look and theme, especially in our room. The restroom/sink area is gorgeous and although the main room area is a bit plain, it is very spacious. The bed was a little rough and blankets very heavy. Our television area was very dusty and the remote was difficult to work with. Overall, the […] room itself was decent. The employees were efficient and professional. My only complaint towards customer service is the lack of ice. The hotel does not have public ice machines, so it has to be ordered through guest services. Our stay was on New Years Eve, so their ice orders were obviously stacked up. It took an hour and a half to receive our ice. I understand that it was a busy night, but a hotel like this should be more prepared knowing that a night like NYE would require high demand for ice. Also, the valet was not as friendly as they probably should have been. Overall, my stay was pleasant. I would hope however, that their service is more up to par on less busy evenings.

"Overrated"
Wallpaper was falling off, faucets too tight, $15 charge per night, and $32 parking per night. There was also sand on the bed when we got in. Very convenient location was a definite high point of this hotel.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Westgate"
A little over priced. TV had a poor picture and the mattress was way too soft (may have been too old).Genuine Expedia guest review
"Comfortable!"
We got a good rate and the overall experience was positive. The hotel staff was very nice, the rooms are clean, and it's located downtown. We were happy and comfortable during our stay!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Not very impressive"
No Pool. Underground parking which feels secure, but forces you to use valet. Staff was not impressive. Front desk had no knowledge of restaurant when I asked about the dinner and breakfasts menus, not did he offer to get me information. He did describe to me how to walk around the corner of the room and look at the menu. Location is great for walking […] around gas lamp district. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"The Westgate Hotel - A little long in the tooth"
This hotel has obviously seen better days. Although the service and housekeeping are fine, the hotel is old and in need of remodeling/refurbishing. There are no refrigerators in the rooms, TVs are old and there are no ice machines in the building although ice is provided by housekeeping. The dining room is small and service is slow although breakfast […] is tasty but somewhat pricey. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"The Westgate Hotel in San Diego"
The hotel itself is nice and is in a convenient location but, be prepared to hear EVERYTHING that happens downtown. We would awake to sirens and trucks, early in the morning. Also, the rooms share a common door, that leads to the foyer that the two rooms share, which can become a nuisance if your neighbors (like ours) get us early and like to allow […] their door to slam. Also, we orderd room service for breakfast, our first day there and, after 4 calls (throughout a 6 hour span) and a visit to the front desk, the food cart was finally removed. They have valet parking, which is convenient, as street parking is very difficult to find but, it is rather expensive. Overall, the room was nice, the view was nice, the food was tasty and the trip was relaxing. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Nice and Quiet Hotel though Rooms in need for refuribishment, especially bathrooms. Staff was friendly, the rooms rate was overpriced for a 4 star hotel. On the other hand, it was convieniant distance to the convention centre and close to Mall.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
