My family planned a trip to Seaworld and were looking for a good location. Somewhere not too far from Seaworld, and not too far from the freeways. We found a few but ended up booking this one. The property was very nice and the staff excellent. Room was clean and comfortable. The only problems that we had were the constant... more

Great location, walking distance to shopping and dinning, in Old Town. Clean and well maintained hotel, room size was nice and the complimentray breakfast each morning was excellent. I really liked that the hotel was secure and had a security guard at night. Pool is small but nice. I would highly recommend. more

The hotel's location is the best part about the hotel. Right in Old Town - restaurants & shopping all within walking distance. There is a liquor/deli store right across the street which was very convenient. The train into town is a few blocks away (about a 10-15 minute walk). It cost $4 per person (roundtrip) to go into the Gaslamp... more

I had a wonderful trip to the Holiday Inn Express Old Town in March and would highly recommend it to anyone! The hotel has a perfect location and is right in the thick of it in Old Town. The hotel isn't the typical HI Express, it matches perfectly in with the architecture and theme of old town. I would say... more

This hotel exceeded my expectations! We needed a hotel for one night near something interesting since we were not picking up our rental car until the next day. Not only did we enjoy walking to Old Town and seeing the sights, the hotel was excellent value for the money. It was clean, with very comfortable beds, friendly helpful staff and... more

The Holiday Inn Express is located conveniently in Old Town. It is an easy walk to Old Town restaurants, shopping and the trolley stop. It is also convenient to other San Diego attractions. There aren't any views and nothing fancy about the neighborhood. There is underground parking for a fee, but there is also street parking for free. Try and... more

Probably not one of the better HI Express's around. I stayed at room 140 and while it was nice and roomy (I think it doubles as a business meeting room) it smelled like molds and had a weird although comfortable bed with mirror ceilings (hmm wonder what for, lol). Breakfast was ok, not Four Seasons quality but then again it's... more

I booked this hotel for it's location and the fact that this was a Holiay Inn Express. I always have great experiences with Holiday Inn Express and this was no exception. The location is about 2 short blocks from the start of Old San Diego. Old San Diego is the best area to stay in San Diego. This hotel was... more

Clean hotel. Very old. Needs A LOT of updating. Location is good for Old Town. The staff was very lackluster. My son dubbed the young lady that checked us in "Queen Fireball". A lot of the rooms are outside access. Make sure to ask for a room with an inside corridor entry. The continental breakfast was very lame for a... more

I found the hotel to be sat on a lovely piece of property in a great location with nice staff. But the rooms are like some of the oldest Holiday Inns I've stayed at. There is also quite a bit of construction going on. I have no complaints but I still didn't feel like it was "great". I don't think... more
