The Dana is one of the nicer hotels that I have stayed in and I have travelled extensively. I think it is due to the portion of the hotel we stayed, which was the newer section and had ocean view. It was clean, crisp and full of great ammenities. The pool, spa and Firefly bar and rest were awesome....the older... more

We stayed here for a few days after spending five nights in downtown San Diego. It was a beautiful spot to stay, very peaceful and we really enjoyed it. We stayed in the new wing, the room was big and we had a balcony with a beautiful view of the bay. We booked the new wing as we wanted a... more

The grounds of The Dana are immaculately kept. All of the staff was really friendly and helpful. Our room was always clean. It was really too chilly for us to use the pool area, but it was beautiful.

Really disappointed. The hotel looks and smells old and does not come close to looking like the pictures posted here or perhaps it looked like that once upon a time.

The room smelled like a wet dog. Rolled off the comforter to find something disgusting on the bed sheets. The imprint of... more

The Dana is my #1 choice in San Diego! This is our second there. My son lives in San Diego, and I always stay at the Dana when visiting him (I'd much rather get a room than stay at the "Bachelor Pad", then all I would do is clean for them!) The staff is awesome, just love those guys! They... more

Rooms were clean, staff very accommodating. As we attended a conference at Hubbs Research Center, the Dana was within walking distance. Spa was nice. Restaurants adequate. Loved sitting out looking out at boats, birds, passing walkers/runners. more

Rooms are newly renovated. Great grounds, activities for family, friendly and knowledgable staff. more
