Stayed here for CTIA Conference in San Diego. Good basic hotel. Free wireless, a kitchen that's not bad (they do a decent breakfast), and friendly and helpful staff. It's basic, and is being done - up. I liked it. Especially the price - which was cheap! 20 minute walk to the conference centre (and also Gaslamp area). more

This hotel is a great value and a very nicely updated Holiday Inn. We stayed 2 nights for a concert/ anniversary weekend. The room was on the 11th floor and we could see the bay and all the old ships. You can see the airport, but not hear the airport at all (or the nearby freeway) The rooms are modern,... more

My husband and I stayed at the Holiday Inn Downtown San Diego during our recent visit to San Diego. We were only staying 3 nights, and were working with a pretty tight budget, so we went to Hotwire to book our hotel. I had done quite a bit of research and felt pretty confident that the hotel we were selecting... more

Really nice granite countertops in the bathroom; love the setup in there. Roomy, spacious, and relaxing. Within walking distance of the Gaslamp district and Balboa Park. Is also literally next door to I-5 (yet there's not a lot of noise). Not fond of the hidden fee of around $2.30 for "marketing research." Don't get the parking permit for $14. There's... more

We checked in, got to our room, and only one key out of three worked. The room, which was an "upgrade", was smaller than we anticipated, had no refrigerator, no microwave, and no luggage rack (we had to put our suitcase on the floor). Unlike other Holiday Inns, there was no formal restaurant and no bar...merely a fast food type... more

The Holiday Inn Downtown San Deigo is a small, clean, comfortable hotel with a great staff! Everyone at this hotel from the manager of guest services, wonderful Jeremiah, to the cafe workers at the small but fantastically great breakfast cafe, to all the super shuttle drivers we drove crazy, I say congratulations on going the extra mile to serve your... more

I enjoyed the Holiday Inn Downtown very much. The rooms where remodeled very nicely with nice flat screen tv's and very nice beds. The bathrooms were very state of the art also. Very convienent to the freeway which is right outside the exit from the hotel parking lot. We did not hear any freeway nose at all which suprised me.... more

This hotel was not what I expected. This was my first experience with Holiday Inn and I was very much surprised at what I found. The rooms were incredible, so new and trendy, and very comfortable. I was pleased with the service, the front desk agent checking us in was courteous and efficient. Late one night our TV was not... more

Awful hotel with rude and unhelpful staff that don't listen to what your trying to tell them. I stayed in Holiday Inn for my trip to Comic Con 2009 with some friends. I had stayed in Holiday Inn on the Bay in 07' which was nicer apart from that they were renovating so it was noisy and our air con... more
