Overall great experience from the moment I stepped into the lobby. Valet took great care of my car, the front desk made sure I had everything I needed and the room was so comfortable. This hotel needs to share the name of their pillow provider because I haven’t slept so well in a while. They have good snacks and drinks in their mini bar area and some really cool Tower23 merch available. If you’re a Kopari fan you’ll love the options they have for purchase too. I didn’t get to try the restaurant downstairs but definitely will give it a try next time. One of my favorite amenities is the fire pit on the deck at night, nothing is more relaxing than a warm fire and the sound of ocean waves. 10/10 recommend this gem.

Location, location, location. I had an ocean-front room with a balcony directly on the ocean and near the pier in Pacific Beach. Restaurants, bars, and shops close by. Great walking and bike riding (bikes available for free from resort). A few homeless around if you walk early in the morning, but not disruptive. The room was clean except for a worm (apparently marked with a strip of paper but no one had removed.) Carpet a bit worn and furniture a bit shabby for the price, but somewhat expected on the beach. The customer service was outstanding. Everyone that I came in contact with was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, JRDN restaurant had a limited menu and was not open for breakfast the week that I stayed. However, the food that was available was excellent and breakfast was available for in-room dining.

Great location and very clean hotel. The food at the restaurant was excellent and the drinks were excellent as well. We had a third floor room overlooking the second level patio area which was very nice. We also had a partial view of the ocean. The staff was very attentive and friendly and everyone seemed quite sincere. We used their valet service which was reasonably priced.

We stayed at Tower 23 since Pacific Beach is my husbands fave area in San Diego and we were celebrating his birthday. The hotel was in the perfect location with restaurants and stores all around and had a breathtaking beach front view. Upon arrival, service at checkin and valet was great. Our two queen bed room was perfectly clean, was well stocked with snacks and drinks you could purchase, and there was even a surprise toy box with a few gifts in it for our 2 year old toddler waiting in the room which he loved and kept him entertained the whole trip. That was a great touch Tower 23! During our stay, front desk was very pleasant and helpful. We were able to borrow bikes and took them all the way down the boardwalk to Mission Bay and back. They also said we had access to chairs and toys for the beach which we did not use but will definitely use next time. We had a few meals at JRDN with the family and each time was fantastic and delicious. The truffle fries were the best. Although there was no pool or gym on property, we loved staying at Tower23 and will definitely stay again in the future.

We had a very nice stay and enjoyed all the time. It was friendly, good concept, clean, nice view, great location. But the bad surprise came with the deductions from credit card. After leaving the hotel, there have been costs for the minibar deducted although we never used it. I wrote this several times and it was all just from the last day. At that day we left the hotel very early. So everybody could have taken the stuff if even. This is close to betray.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Location was very good. The hotel provided bikes, so we rode the boardwalk every day of our stay. Also, they provided umbrellas, and chairs for the beach, The beach entrance is practically outside the hotel entrance. We really wanted a pool on site. That would have made it awessome.

Elizabeth the manager went out of her way to make sure things were good. I would definitely stay here again. The rooms are beautiful. I had the partial ocean view which was nice with a small balcony. Bartender went above and beyond, finding me some bread from kitchen for my upset stomach. Such a sweetheart

Very clean hotel with high service, modern architecture, nice rooms, top valet parking service, chairs, towels and even balls/frisbee for the beach. Very easy. The location directly at the beach is fantastic. Only inflexibility was, that an easy switch of our three days to one day earlier was not possible, even as our stay was already payed upfront. Reason was the booking via a travel office and not directly. In Germany that would not have been any problem.
