First of all, I'm an avid believer in rewards points, but sometimes when I have to stay in downtown for business, Priceline is a necessary evil, (you do not get the first class treatment from your hotel that you are a reward member with, because you are just a priceliner to them). The shuttle from SAN DIEGO airport was pretty... more

If you like privacy then try to stay in the tower that is not attached to the reception area. The newer section of the hotel has renovated bathrooms with opaque glass doors on the bathrooms that let you see the silhouette of the person inside. The bathroom doors face the beds, have no locks, and simply slide closed leaving gaps... more

Did my research on this site. got a great rate thru hotel website & Priority Club rewards. Holiday Inn channels you thru to this if you are a member. they offered discounts from numerous programs, AAA, AARP, entertainment book, and we did not have to pre-pay. the hotel took incredible care of us from check in to check out. barely... more

You can't argue with the location. The staff was very friendly and the service was very good. We needed more towels and they were there within minutes. The room was very clean as was the rest of the hotel. It seems like they are updating the rooms in such a was as to compete with the other "modern" hotels. The... more

I was a bit worried about staying at a Holiday Inn as I imagine an outdated 80's place. This hotel was modern. The beds and pillows were comfortable and the room stylish. The bathroom was still small and like I imagine Holiday Inn's. All rooms had a balcony. The location was perfect--across from the harbor. Close to the trollies and... more

This was my third trip to the San Diego/Downtown area and have stayed at the Holiday Inn on the Bay each time. The staff is always friendly and helpful and their rooms are large and clean. I got one of the Bay View rooms and was very pleased. It has it's own balcony and the views from my room were... more

After looking at hotels back and forth from old town to downtown and the glaslamp quarter we decided to stay here in front of the bay. I have to say that I was thrilled with my choice, it was incredible to see the ships and the harbour from our room. Rooms were clean, had great beds and bathroom seemed to... more

We had never been to San Diego and chose this hotel for it's location and price. We were very happy with the location when we arrived as is right on the waterfront with wonderful views (although we didn't have an ocean view room which was a little disappointing) The hotel is very spread out so you have to drag your... more

We were in town for a concert so we decided to stay here since it was close to the venue. BIG mistake! Upon arrival we wanted to clean up first but we had no hot water. I called the front desk and they said they would send someone up. A hour passed and we couldn't wait anymore. On the way... more
