    Westgate 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.

    Overall, my experience was favorable, however, there is no self-parking and valet parking was very expensive. There is also a extra charge (service fee) which is for use of the coffee maker in the room (terrible tasting coffee) and 2 bottles of water.

    Pretty much was happy with everything about the hotel, except the linens and pillows. The sheets were pretty rough for the amount of money you spend on a high class hotel and the pillows were extremly soft and frumpy. It was a little difficult to sleep which if dissapointing because that's kind of why you get a hotel room to start with.

    The Westgate Hotel is a great example for old world charm. There were no prices on the room service meals and the bed linens are turned down for you for the night...every night. One thing I did not like, I was billed $15 each day + tax- beyond the room price, for the avialability of wifi service and four bottles of water in the refridgerator.. Unforunately […] for me, the heating system in my room malfunctioned. Service came quickly and the bellboy took my luggage and bags to the new room. The accomodations are way above the regular chains. It was a welcome stay. I would do it again. Read more

    If you are staying in San Diego, this is a must. Superior service with a friendly attitude. The decor is elegant to say the least. Every staff member I encountered was friendly, knowledagable, and willing to help. The cuisine is the best around the down down. You will not regret your decision to stay here. My wife and I have traveled the world. This […] is on our list of a must return. Soon. Read more

    After shopping hotels.com for a hotel near the San Diego Convention center, I chose the Westgate for the price and overall rating. This hotel lives up to it's 4+ stars. Beautiful lobby, friendly helpful front desk staff, and very spacious rooms. This is an older hotel, but has been beautifully maintained and upgraded. Marble in bathrooms, plenty of […] drawer space, dimmer switches on the lights. The rooms come with a "cooler" and free bottled water, but you can also have an true refrigerator brought up for a one time moderate charge for your entire stay. They also charge a daily "resort fee", but this includes internet and use of their business center which I found to be very helpful (would have paid close to this much for internet at other hotels). The Westgate is about 7 blocks from the convention center, and about the same distance to the Amtrak station. Both are easy walks. On the downside, there is considerable noise from emergency vehicles. I also had minor issues with water pressure, and there were some rather large spots on the carpet that had been cleaned leaving discolored areas. The maid service was too much for me... they are in and out of the rooms numerous times each day, including 'turn down' service at night. Tip: Put your 'do not disturb' sign on the outer door into your room if you don't want the maids banging the door in the middle of the night when they deliver your newspaper. All told, the service, view and location outway the minor problems, and I would definitely stay here again. Read more

    My husband and I stayed at The Westgate for three nights while I attended a two-day class at the hotel. I booked an early flight from Denver to San Diego with the intention of spending the day in LA. We arrived at the hotel around 9:30 am and requested an early check-in. The Front Desk was accommodating and checked us in right away (Rm #1188). The […] room is situated along 3rd Ave facing The U.S. Grant Hotel; an OK city view with one king bed. I don't find San Diego to have a spectacular city view, so a bay view room may be better. The room was quiet at night, not much street noise; basically because we were on a higher floor. The light beaming through the sides and bottom of the door to the room wasn't too distracting. It served as a night light of sorts to help navigate my way to the bathroom. Maid service was good, as it should be. The only thing that was a bit disconcerting is that the maid will knock, then immediately start to open the door. This happened during the day and again at night. Having the Afternoon Tea right in the middle of the main entrance lobby of the hotel didn't make sense. Heading to the Business Ctr from the elevator, you have to negotiate dining tables which prove distracting to the diners. You also have to move through the tables again to leave the Business Ctr and exit through the front door. Not a well thought-out plan for the flow of traffic for both dining guests and hotel guests. One visit was enough... we'll stay elsewhere. Read more

    I now know how a five star hotel is supposed to feel. The staff were very attentive and knowledgeable. I asked for restaurant suggestions and received a detailed description including price and formality. The receptionist also had great suggestions for sights to see, etc. The location was very convenient. My meeting was at the NBC Building on Broadway. […] The hotel was half a block away. The room was well set out. It was bright and clean. In addition to the usual items, there was an overstuffed chair and ottoman, a large, leather appointed work table, and the latest in clock/ipod ports as well as in room web connections. The restaurant in the hotel was excellent, and it was opened sufficiently early to allow me to enjoy breakfast before walking to my morning meeting. Lastly, they didn't charge for everything. The business center, gym, etc. were included in a small fee. There were other free items like fresh fruit and bottled water. I would definitely stay there again if I were in San Diego. Read more

    Hotel is within walking distance from Wrigley field (about 15 minutes). We were there on business and decided to catch a game that evening so we picked a hotel within walking distance. The room was nice and the staff was very friendly and professional. Rail station is about 50 yards away if you don't feel like walking or taking a cab. Hotel is located […] downtown, I wouldn't recommend it for a family. The area isn't bad and I felt safe but I am not sure how comfortable I would feel walking around with young children at night.

    Stayed at the Westgate as i was attending a conference at the San Diego Convention Center, which was about 8 blocks away. The walk was easy to do as the weather was great (mid 70s). This hotel is one of those old-fashioned quaint hotels with character, and though European in style, had comfortable sized rooms, free internet, free gym, free bottled water, […] daily newspaper. I received a great price through Expedia, and hence definitely enjoyed the stay. Adjacent neighborhood is OK, and a couple of blocks from the Gas Lamp quarter (across the street from the US Grant hotel). Overall a pleasant experience. Read more

    This hotel has the type of traditional elegance which reminds you of the Biltmore in LA or the Plaza in NY. However, although it puts on a good show, I believe it has gotten a bit rough around the edges. The TV in our room emitted a constant whining sound -- clearly it needs to be replaced. Also, its remote control did not work consistently. Therefore, […] I gave up on watching TV. When I went downstairs to the lobby at 7am for coffee (because the rooms do not have coffee makers, but that is a different story), the cofffee urn was empty. Though the food was delicious, the service in the restaurant was also inconsistent. After finishing my appetizer, my empty plates remained on the table for over twenty minutes, during which time I never saw an employee of any kind. For the price, this hotel should be better and thus I would not recommend it. Read more
