Overall I really loved this hotel. Concierge and staff were terrific - very helpful. Wonderful food at the restaurant and a lovely bar. My only complaint is that despite the high floor, my room was very noisy. I heard a lot of street traffic noise - trucks, drunks, and car alarms. more

I stayed at this hotel when i managed a conference for one of my clients. I found it to be truly on par with many luxury european hotels i have visited. The decor throughout the hotel is decadent, and the rooms are reasonably sized and well planned. I had the pleasure of working with the entire staff, who were for... more

To celebrate my fiancé’s birthday we decided on a weekend getaway to San Diego. I booked a hotel through Hotwire, based on star rating and location in the Gaslamp quarter, and was pleased to find out we were staying at The Westgate. Despite a bland outside appearance, the interior architecture and decor of The Westgate has a European, and distinctly... more

You expect lush British Royalty, but it was just old fashioned, cheap, like a grandmother's house. The staff was friendly, but not outstanding. It definitely is not a 5 star hotel. Concierge was a young girl who answered with... more

A copy of a letter we just sent to the hotel: My husband and I recently stayed at your hotel. We were there on Monday and Tuesday nights, September 3rd and 4th. I am writing to tell you that our stay with you was the most pleasant we have ever had at a hotel. When we were first greeted we... more

We stayed here during our honeymoon for 4-5 days, and chose the hotel due to its location and relatively good price for a 5-star hotel. However, upon our arrival, we were quite underwhelmed. Although some people might have liked the room decorations, we thought the hotel seemed quite antiquated. Also, the room service menu did not have much variety, and... more

The hotel is just perfect: very competent and nice people at the reception, always very helpful and extremely friendly, great breakfast, beautiful rooms and wonderful decoration in the entrance hall. The hotel is very central and is a great place to discover San Diego. more
