    Staff inside the hotel is top notch. Attentive, helpful, considerate… really great. $70 nightly parking was very pricey though, and my car got a small dent in the side. Overall I’d recommend it but maybe plan to park in a nearby downtown garage for $30/night.

    There is a $25 destination fee per day and a $70 per day charge for your vehicle. You will receive a $25 credit you can use at the restaurant or in the gift shop. The hotel itself is nice and clean. They offer a free buffet style breakfast and light snacks and 2 cocktails which is nice.

    Rooms or at least our room was large, almost like a one bedroom apartment with a foldout couch, microwave, sink, table area. Free snacks and drinks in the evening was a bonus and nice. Breakfast is eggs/omelette to order or you can have the ready made breakfast, but it’s not self serve. Never had an issue with amount of food and I’m sure they will give you more if you ask. Everything was great except the parking! They only have valet parking for like 70 dollars a night.

    Vallet is $70 plus an excessive amount of other taxes for each day you use vallet (which is the only option since self parking is not available). There were a few staff in vallet that were friendly. Overall, a little disappointed. I expected better from this location, especially for the price.

    Location is nice. Just across the Seaport Village. Check in and checkout is fast. $75 parking with no calldown service on weekends. $25 fee per person for I don't know what for.

    We recently wrapped up a wonderful two-night stay at the Embassy Suites in downtown San Diego and would absolutely return. ​From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our entire visit. Our suite was exceptionally clean, spacious, and well-maintained. Best of all, we had a beautiful view of the harbor and Seaport Village right from our room, which was a spectacular bonus! ​The amenities here are fantastic. We really enjoyed the indoor pool area, and the room service was prompt and delicious. The complimentary breakfast was also excellent with a great spread of options to start the day. ​If I had to nitpick, our room wasn't quite ready right at the 4:00 PM check-in time, though the front desk handled it gracefully. Also, breakfast seating was a bit of a challenge on our last morning—space was limited because a few large groups were taking up tables to chat without actually eating. ​Despite those two small details, the overall experience, spectacular views, and top-notch service easily earn this hotel a full 5 stars. Highly recommended for anyone visiting downtown San Diego!

Our room was comfortable, spacious, and quiet, making it easy to relax after a busy day. We especially appreciated the attention to detail and the excellent customer service throughout our stay. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others visiting the area.

    We stayed for 7 days and didn't get our AC fixed until our 5th night. We were sweating and thanks to good old electric fan, we lasted. On our last night the AC started failing again but at this point, we were done and just so ready to go back home. San Diego never disappoints but wished we stayed in a different hotel so we could have had the comfort we were expecting. The breakfast and the evening social hours are great though but when it comes to comfort, one wants to be comfortable after a long day but we didn't really get that in our stay. My kids were uncomfortable and this is the first time they had ever complained about being too hot in a room in all our travels.

    Excellent stay. I was upgraded to the 12th floor (top floor) without asking. Felt great. Awesome staff. Will definitely be back. The only negative would be the shower door. The door closest to the faucet is sealed/locked for some reason. It was difficult turning on the shower w/o getting wet with the initial cold water. Outside of that, GREAT stay, great staff and great hotel.

    They now charge a mandatory daily resort fee even though this is a downtown business hotel, not a resort. In return, you get a daily credit that can only be used on property. The problem is the on-site prices are ridiculous and nearly three times the local grocery store. I would have rather had that amount added to the base price each day to not have that constant reminder of how I was being swindled by a one-great brand. Or even a resort fee that gave us literally nothing. The fact that they kept making us deal with the pressure of getting a third in value for our resort fee was the worst possible outcome. Plus, they didn't credit us back on our last day and acted like it was my fault when I raised the issue after checking out (they did concede to credit without a fight). Also annoying are the timeshare salespeople stationed right by the elevators. It's impossible to get to or from your room without going through this bottleneck, and they use is aggressively to peddle this same experience at their other properties. It's such a bad look for the hotel and embarrassing if you have guests. The staff response is a shrug and "all the hotels around here are going to do this to you". It's such a sad decline. We may just stop meeting up in San Diego altogether.

    Beds were old and uncomfortable, as were the pillows and towels. Felt like they bought everything new two decades ago and just haven’t updated things. We were honestly more tired from our vacation given the poor quality sleep. Never felt hotel food was any good and this really is no exception. They make you omelets which is nice compared to other hotels with continental breakfasts. The fact that we have to pay $70/night for parking in addition to a mandatory $25/night resort fee is quite absurd and a sneaky was for these resorts to take extra money from you. Finally, I was pretty annoyed by the guy in the front trying to sell me more Hilton hotel options. I normally am a glass half full kind of person but many things about this resort rubbed me the wrong way for the price we paid. It’s not like I wouldn’t recommend it, but there’s nothing great about this property.

    Perfect location for families with younger kids as it’s walking distance to the marina, Seaport, and new kids museum. Breakfast buffet was not bad with hot food and a good variety of other selections—think 2 kinds of fruit, cantaloupe and honeydew but at least it’s fresh fruit. It’s extremely busy during the entire time it’s open so leave a lot of time for lines. The hotel only has very expensive valet parking. If you plan ahead, you can park across the street in a clean and secure covered parking garage where the Rivian is—2 nights for less than 1 valet at the hotel. All in all, a lovely trip in a beautiful city with near perfect weather.

    Valet staff took almost an hour to bring our luggage up to the room. Tipped very well. 45 minutes in hotel staff text us how our say was and mention we have been wanting a long time to get our luggage. They responded saying it’s because you just got your room… I walked down stairs to see no one checking in and had to ask the valet to bring up my bags up. They didn’t seem to be in a good mood. And leaving we load up our car and about to pull out and the valet pulls up a car to block us in and had to wait a long time to get out.

    Front desk staff and the people who were able to support arrival via messaging in the Hilton app were amazing. They treated us with respect and compassion! They are also very accommodating to special needs. The only thing that put a little damper on the stay was “resort fee” that also includes credit to the restaurant and shop…the shop in the hotel shows no prices on anything! So if you try to spend your “store credit” for the day - you have to bring each item to the store clerk to scan to find out the price…Please, put prices on stuff in the store! It was still worth it to stay there for the great location and the care shown by the front desk staff and the cheerful staff serving breakfast. Will stay there again.

    We had a flood in our room but were given another right away. At checkout we were emailed a receipt for the daily resort fee and incidentals and were charged everyday for $70 parking and we never had a car at the property which we made clear when we checked in. Now we will have to call to get hundreds of dollars refunded. Pay very close attention to your final payment when you check out. I doubt we will stay here again.

    I couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay with the family. The location is across Seaport Village, marina, and tour cruises. Gaslamp amd restaurants just blocks away and the bay view each morning was gorgeous! Staff was super friendly and even got to check in early. Beds comfy and rooms had everything you need for family or groups. Gym was small but had the basics. The indoor pool was small and had ton of chlorine and for a heated pool it needed to be warmer especially because California nights are chilly. Breakfast was great and very busy so get there early cuz the last hour had a crazy long line. Happy hour was really nice. It’s valet only so make sure you have change for tipping. Two thumbs up for me!!

    The property is walking distance to several San Diego attractions (USS Midway and Seaport Village is visible from any bay view rooms). The rooms are clean and well kept up. The breakfast gave lots of options. To be the rush, go early! The property and staff are very family-friendly. The one draw back is that there will be someone in the lobby selling timeshares.

    Excellent location in downtown San Diego and walking distance to the waterfront and SeaPort Village. Continental breakfast was delicious with made to order omelets. Suite was spacious and clean, which made it very comfortable for a family of 5 with an infant. Free pack and play cribs are available upon request. I recommend bringing a cushion and some blankets for your baby to make the bed softer and more comfortable for them. Overall a great experience!

    Great location. Appreciate the included breakfast and happy hour. But the $25 daily credit was difficult to use, so ours was wasted. Every time my husband went to the shop, it was closed. We had also paid extra for a room with. Balcony rather than just a window, but with no furniture on the balcony, it was not used at all. Would stay again but would be more mindful of the shop hours and would not pay extra for the balcony.

    The staff at breakfast and happy hour were great. This hotel seems a bit older, for some reason they only had accessible rooms when I checked in when I did not request this style room. With the accessible room water gets everywhere in the shower, house keeping didn’t come by when I didn’t have my privacy sign up. Overall a great location to walk to seaport, gaslamp, convention center and other wonderful places. Also, not far from airport.

    Breakfast was ok. View is very nice if you pay top dollar. Elevators are fast. Valet is very cumbersome and expensive with poor customer service. Staff throughout hotel is run down and unhappy, and it shows in their poor hospitality and accommodation. Beds were uncomfortable. Pillows lumpy. Cannot turn on shower without getting in and getting all wet. The place is very overpriced and in addition, they force you to pay $25/day for unknown on top of fees and taxes and other nonsense. Located close to seaport village but certainly not as depicted in photos.

    Parking is falsely advertised. The site says “valet parking optional,” implying self-parking exists. It does not. Valet is mandatory at $75 per night plus $25 every time you retrieve your car, easily reaching $150–$200 per day. This is forced valet, not optional. Breakfast was the worst part. What’s advertised as a buffet is not self-serve. Staff control portions, refuse seconds, and create an uncomfortable, almost humiliating atmosphere—especially for families. My child was denied extra bacon twice. That’s unacceptable at a $420/night hotel. Service also felt inconsistent, with noticeably better treatment given to some guests who speaks spanish, which left a very bad impression. Clean rooms and a good location do not excuse misleading parking and a restrictive, disrespectful dining experience. Families should think twice. I would not stay here again.

I had to talk to a different person right before we left and she took it down to the $60. They also have a weird additional $25 fee per night, that they said you could get $25 worth of food or stuff from the store or restaurant to compensated for that charge. I got $25 worth of Altoids

    Our family of 4 stayed for the weekend to take our kids (ages 2 and 4) to the zoo. We loved this hotel! We arrived 1 hr before check-in time and our room was ready. Once we dropped our bags, we were able to enjoy the indoor heated pool. My 4 year old said that was the best part of the whole trip! Room service that night was convenient - food was basic but when traveling with young kids, we look for convenience above all. Similarly the breakfast buffet was just what we needed - decent coffee, made to order omelets, variety of breakfast staples that the kids eat (pancakes, yogurt, fruit, cereal), and plenty of seating. There is nothing worse when traveling than trying to get breakfast with hangry toddlers and having to wait to be seated, then wait for your order. Room was a 1 bedroom with separate living room and lots of features that made it easy to share the space with our kids—like 3 sinks, a fridge + microwave, and blackout curtains. We appreciated the complimentary happy hour each night as well! My only gripes were that parking is valet only and is quite expensive, even with Hilton Honors, and that the tv didn’t have Netflix or other streaming services.

    Great location in San Diego. Surprised at being charged an additional $25 Destination Fee and overnight parking at $65. Neither TV's in room would work and tried calling Front Desk but got no answer. Went to front desk and they said when the rooms are cleaned the housekeepers do something to the TV's and you have to press 8 on the remote to reset them. Thought this should be mentioned to all new check ins to avoid the hassle.

    Room was ok, initially the AC was broken but they fixed it reasonable. The Hidden Fees $25 a night and $65 a night parking fee. I thought the room was a good value at first but when you add the additional fees I could have booked a much nicer room at a different location.

    Location is perfect, we always get the Bay view with Balcony for the views but this last stay we got room 1012 which is not all Bay view we mainly got a big building view and half a bay view which I would consider it a city view but they charge for bay view, the room did not have hot water when turned on you had to wait about 10 minutes to let it the water heat up, once in the shower it kept changing from hot to cold, we asked front desk for another room and they offered a non balcony room which they had available so we agreed, asked us to pack amd wait 30 minutes they would bring up the key to the new room after 45 minutes we decided we couldn't cancel our plans and keep waiting so we told front desk to forget the room change we'll stay and deal with the hot/cold water shower since we had one more night left. Engineer said they switched a pipe between rooms 1011 and 1012 so it takes a while to heat up. Do not get those rooms if you stay there not worth the amount you pay. Otherwise everything else was good.

I had no problem with being charged but you should know that valet parking $65 and a $25 daily charge will be added at your stay at check in. I did realized that would happen cause I didn’t read the fine print. But I didn’t mind it. Valet was great and we did use our room service.

    The people at the lobby promoting Hilton honors were annoying and pesky. We had several approach us over our stay that would not leave us to our getaway. We loved the location of the hotel in this interesting city but the $25 add on each day led us to focusing how to spend in the hotel when we had other plans. T shirts, shorts etc bought at the hotel store with exaggerated pricing made us feel almost victimized. I would rather you just increase your rates and not play games with the fee. End of the day the chorus of the Mennonite conference one evening in the atrium lifted our spirits. Wonderful

    The hotel was beautiful, clean and spacious. Breakfast was amazing. only thing I would complain about is the $25 a day fee that you have to use or lose each day that doesn’t accumulate. I would also say the pool’s not heated, but it’s not terribly uncommon. Lastly, if you Hilton‘s rewards member, it’s $60 a day to park through valet. There is another parking garage not too far from the hotel but that’s about $32 a day and you need to pay every time you go in and out of that garage so the $60 is cheaper than finding a garage around town.

    $65 of parking that you cannot avoid per night. Then they charge you $25 of hotel fees per night, which you can redeem at the gift shop where it sells 8 dollar Waters. The pool area gets congested with people bringing an alcohol and getting around here. Management doesn’t do anything. When you asked them a question about any other fees charged, they respond in a condescending manner. Things are just plastered over. Meh. Very disappointing. Do not recommend to anyone staying here.

    The property is centrally located and very close to Seaport Village and some amazing spots in San Diego. That’s it! I am a Marriot Gold member and I am used to a few things when one checks-in.. example bottle of water! Surprising if you are not a Hilton Honors club you don’t get a bottle of water on check in. They don’t tell you this but they would charge $25 per day mandatory charge which they say they give it back to you to use in store and in restaurant. So no matter what you have to use that $25 even if you do not want to cuz they will charge you anyways. Top of it, room service charge is $10 to deliver the food to your room plus 18% gratuity so you end up paying more then $25.. such a ridiculous way to charge more. Overall ok property with great location.

    Bed was comfortable, the sheets felt good, bathroom was fine. Only complaint I had was that the breakfast thing began closing 40 minutes before the states close time. As such, by the time we got out of the omelette line, all the fruit, yogurt, toast, danish were all put away. After eating half my omelette, I wanted more coffee, but the sweeteners were all put away. Very convenient to shopping, the Gaslamp District…
