Delicious Breakfast Buffet

I had the pleasure of enjoying the full breakfast buffet at Vela, and it was incredibly delicious! The food selection was extensive and fresh, and the atmosphere was inviting. Our server, Adrianne, was attentive and charming, making our breakfast experience one to remember.

Lovely Bay Views

I stayed in room 601, which offered almost 180-degree views overlooking the bridge, the bay, and downtown San Diego! Waking up to such a amazing sight made my visit truly special. The room was spacious and well-equipped, offering everything I needed for a comfortable stay.

Pampering Spa Experience

I had a wonderful experience at the Eforea Spa. Amanda Castenado, the spa director, was so helpful and professional. She assisted me in rescheduling my appointment due to flight delays, ensuring I still had a relaxing experience. The treatments were rejuvenating, making it a perfect way to unwind.

Perfect Conference Stay

I stayed at the hotel during a conference, and it could not have been better. The front office administrator, Shelly Montoya, consistently followed up on everything I needed, which was impressive. The business facilities were excellent, enabling me to navigate my work commitments smoothly.

This hotel offers a fantastic view, especially from corner rooms that overlook both the Coronado Bridge and Petco Park. The location is perfect for exploring the Gaslamp district and the USS Midway. However, the dining options left something to be desired, and the service at the bar was confusing. Overall, it’s a clean and well-maintained property that I would happily return to if visiting San Diego again.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, especially considering the amazing price I got. The location is perfect—just a quick walk to the Convention Center and the Gaslamp district, plus the views from the room were incredible. While the lobby had a slight odor from nearby garbage and there were minor issues during check-in, the overall experience was still excellent. The pool area looked inviting, although I didn't get to enjoy it due to the weather. Definitely a good value for money.

The hotel offers stunning views and an incredible location right on the bay, which is truly its best feature. The rooms are clean and comfortable but feel a bit basic for a Hilton. While I enjoyed the variety of dining options, the service at the pool needs improvement, and there were some frustrating charges to navigate. Overall, it’s a good spot for the views, but watch out for those additional fees.

This hotel is positioned brilliantly for enjoying San Diego, with stunning views of the bay and within walking distance of the Gaslamp Quarter and numerous dining spots. The rooms are spacious and clean, offering incredible views. However, my experience with billing issues and a staff member's approach left something to be desired. Overall, it's a great stay, but be cautious about the additional fees that may catch you off guard.
