Our Go-To Hotel for Business Travel

We've stayed at this hotel several times for business trips in San Diego, and each visit has been great. The customer service is consistently excellent, and the rooms are always clean. While it's not a fancy hotel, it’s reliable, comfortable, and works perfectly for our crew while they're working in the area. We'll definitely be booking here again!

Our Stay

We had an absolutely amazing stay at the Kings Inn! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel right at home with their warm greetings of “Welcome Home.” The lobby had such a cozy vibe that it felt like we were stepping into a friend’s house. We actually enjoyed heading up and down the beautiful staircase—it was a highlight for us! Our room was spacious and the bed was super comfy, making it easy to relax after a day of exploring. Plus, it was conveniently located near all the tourist hotspots. We can’t wait to return!

Will definitely visit again.

Kings Inn was a more affordable option, so I didn't have high expectations, but the stay was awesome! The staff were friendly, the bed was super comfy, the heat/air worked well. The room was clean, and they were very attentive to anything we asked. The pool was nice, and the little outside seating area was inviting. I really liked the Kings Inn and wish I could find more stays like this in other cities!
