Booked this hotel last minute via Hotwire at a fantastic rate after reading terrible reviews of the Holiday Inn Mission Bay that we were previously booked into. This was our first time in San Diego and the hotel gave us a fantastic first impression. Fancy, modern lobby. Modern, spacious and comfortable rooms. Reminded us a lot of the Huntley at... more

hi - just got back from staying there. Small rooms and they do have a frig in each room - BUT their stuff is in there so if you are like me and take your own dog food, waters, yogurt,etc... - just keep it all in your own ice chest. The parking is steep at 32 a night - BUT... more

The Solamar has a real beachside feel for a hotel located in the middle of the city. It is laid back and spaced out and really top notch. They put a lot of effort into the smaller things here to really lift your stay above the average. The wine and cheese tasting in the evening and free tea and coffee... more

The hotel decor and staff made us completely forget we were crammed into our room. The hotel staff is exceptional. They make you feel like you're someone special from the moment... more

The hotel offered a complimentary tea hour in the morning and wine hour in the evening. The rooftop pool area/lounge was spacious and... more

Visited June 9 with family (two adults and kids 9 and 7). Took advantage of a special rate that included a bottle of wine and breakfast as well. Hotel is a nice one - boutique feel to it. Not large in terms of lobby and meeting areas nor rooms but very comfortable. Highlights include a rooftop pool on 4th floor,... more

We were able to check in a bit early for our stay with no problems. The front desk staff and concierge were always extremely nice and very helpful. Our room was clean and well-stocked. The location can't be beat - right in the Gaslamp District, easy walking distance to tons of restaurants, shops, bars and the trolley. The evening wine... more
