Westgate Hotel

Historical, Classy, Worth every penny

I wanted to do something special for my wifes 50th birthday. The Westgate fit my plans perfectly. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I would say it is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. Worth every penny.

Outstanding Service - Great Hospitality!

I was very impressed with the decor and the staff. Very friendly, extremely posh. Rooms were large, there were bathrooms, full vanity and even bed turndown in the evening. This is old school hotel style and I like it. Great, great, great!!!!

Luxurious Experience

My husband and I stayed here for our wedding anniversary and to see Wicked at the Civic Center. It was so nice to walk out the hotel door, cross the street and the Civic Center was right there. We didn't have to fight any traffic after the play, so that was really nice! The minute we walked into the lobby, we knew it was going to be a wonderful stay! The lobby is beautiful and the staff was friendly and helpful. After checking us in, the lady asked if we needed information on any of the local attractions. Once we got into the room, which didn't take long (we stayed on the 18th floor and the elevators were very quick) it was beautiful. The room was spacious, very clean and comfortable. The bathroom was very clean, including the corners of the bathroom floor and the seams in the shower (which I always check). One of the best things is that the hotel had soft water. After getting out of the shower, I didn't feel like I had to put on a whole tube of lotion because my skin was so dry. That was definitely a nice change. The bed was also very comfortable. The turndown service was very nice to have and the robes were very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again.

Elegance and comfort for great price

As a frequent traveler I am very picky with hotels and quality of service. Westgate Hotel exceeded in excellent service, beautiful large room with fantastic view. Friendly and professional staff. short walk from the heart of Gaslamp Dist made the visit to Downtown San Diego a memorable one. If you decide to stay at Westgate Hotel, you must check the piano bar Happy hour best drinks and appetizers for only 7 dollars. Only Westgate will be the choice of hotel for San Diego future visits

Old world charm and modern-day conveniences

Plush Fairmont-style hotel with large rooms, free wireless Internet in the Gaslamp district. And all at a very reasonable price - highly recommend it to anyone!

The Westgate: 5 Stars

The Westgate is comparable to the best Paris hotels. Recommendation: Book at The Westgate!

Excellent Hotel

I was very satisfied with my stay at the Westgate. The room was very elegant and I can't remember when I had my bed turned down and a robe and chocolate waiting for me each evening on my pillow. It was in the heart of Downtown San Diego and near all the transportation I wanted. I highly recommend the stay at Westgate and for the price I paid through hotel.com was well worth it. The only down side I had which is not a knock against the hotel is I would have preferred to have at least one area for ice. I needed ice daily and nightly and you have to call room service or house keeping for that. Other than that the customer service, cleanliness, location, cost was excellent. Again highly recommend the stay.

Wonderful Hotel

I visited the Westgate Hotel over the Memorial Day weekend 5/22-5/25/09 in San Diego and was thoroughly pleased with my stay and the hotel accommodations. I had never stayed at this hotel but definitely rate it with high marks. The inside decor, the customer service, room service, the access to the downtown area and tourist spots were just wonderful. My bed was turned down every night and the room left in a soothing ambiance. It was a fabulous stay. Only change I would like and it's not a knock on the hotel is to see one floor with an ice machine. You have to call room service or house keeping for a bucket of ice. Needless to say I was calling every evening. I highly recommend Westgate Hotel.

Romantic Destination

I spent quite a bit of time researching a hotel in downtown San Diego, looking for a romantic hotel to take my girlfriend to for her birthday. I wanted to be within walking distance of the Copley Symphony Hall and a nice italian restaurant. I was willing to spend a nice chunk of change but didn't want to spend all that cash and be shoehorned into a tiny room with standard hotel furniture. The Westgate was the perfect hotel for the occasion. Despite walking in to the lobby in shorts, flip flops, and t-shirts covered in climbing chalk (we had visited the rock climbing gym prior), the attendant was very curteous and eager to help. The room was spacious and the decor elegant. Attention to the details is evident in all aspects of the hotel. We ended the evening in the Plaza bar, which is small but very nice for a nightcap on a romantic evening. Dim lighting, plush seating, white linen on the tables, and a pianist quietly playing at one end of the bar completed a romantic evening. The bartender was friendly, professional, and makes one hell of a martini.
