Hilton San Diego Resort & Spa Reviews

this hotel is in a great location for seeing the sights of San Diego. It's minutes from Sea World and close to downtown, the zoo and Coronado Island. The hotel is located on the boardwalk which is great for running, walking and biking. there are bike and water sport rental places right there and the prices are reasonable for rentals and the bike path is clearly marked. the pool and hot tub are great. the disappointment is the nickel and dime-ing that happens when you get there. In addition to the nightly rate, they charge a resort fee of $25 per night, a $35 daily parking fee and wanted $75 per night for a cot... a cot!!... what about a cot makes it worth $75?? it's not like we get another room along with it!... i think these charges are ridiculously expensive and unnecessary. We found a Target nearby and bought a twin sized air mattress for $50 and used it instead of the overpriced cot. in addition, the breakfast buffet is a steep $25 per person, so $100 for a family of 4!! Again, ridiculously expensive. overall our stay here was satisfactory. the room was fine, nice to have a mini fridge to keep our water cold and the walk out patio was nice, although 3 of the 5 days we were there they had corporate events on the lawn... tents one day, water sports inflatables another and a luncheon on the third day. we never knew what we would open the curtains to. But, it was not disruptive to our enjoyment. the pool and hot tubs were nice (even though one was out of order the last day)

My Wife and I stayed here for her birthday. The staff was extremely friendly and even provided a complimentary room upgrade because of the special occasion. The suite itself was very comfortable and clean. I wish we could have taken full advantage of the many ammenities offered but we already had other plans. The only thing that seemed a little ridiculous was the $35 overnight parking fee and the $25 ammenities fee (seeing as we were unable to use any of the ammenities) Overall a great hotel and we would definitely stay there again.

We have stayed several times at the resort. We enjoy the property and the bay side sunset dining experience at Acqua [sic].

Beach area just plain dirty and extra charges not worth it

Beautiful and quite place and resort more wonderful the room is normal level over all , I Recommend this hotel

This is our 4th visit here. Originally, we were put in a room that smelled of damp and faced a fence and a road. We changed rooms and were downgraded from a suite to a regular room (but had already paid for the suite) but at least we had the view we requested. The hotel is nice, but 1) the place needs a bit of a facelift - tear in the curtain, wallpaper peeling off in the bathroom - little things like that; and 2) they need to increase their staff. Everyone was very nice, but they were definitely understaffed, which caused delays in food & beverage service, in particular.

The staff was friendly, professional. The room was comfortable ans clean. Overall great experience.

Great hotel, location and on the beach..next to huge City park, Bay and more beach. Close to many restaraunts, highway, airport. Would stay here again . Staff and amenities are excellent. Buffet breakfast was expensive $25.00! Rooms comfortable, clean.

Very child friendly. Restaurant good but expensive Very helpful staff

Excellent housekeeping and janitorial staff - everything here from the guest rooms to the pool area was kept super clean at all times. Pool area is spacious and the fire pits with seating areas are a nice touch for people who want to hang out at the pool without swimming. All staff were friendly and helpful. Location is quiet, and we were able to watch SeaWorld's fireworks from our balcony. Our only dislike was the lack of dining choices on-site. Acqua and its adjoining lounge are way overpriced for small portions of food that was not really all that special. This was not a big deal to us though, as we spent plenty of time off-site and just ate our meals elsewhere. We had a villa with a bay view and would definitely stay here again and recommend this hotel to others. Regular prices are maybe a bit on the high side, but if you are booking a flight and receive the hotel discounts (as we did) the price is quite reasonable.
