Top Santee Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown Little Italy

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent experience! Location provided easy access to expressway for traveling to attractions around the area! Highly recommend!"

Days Inn by Wyndham San Diego Hotel Circle

8/10 Good

"Stayed on a weekday in summer and it was pretty packed. Room was quiet, comfortable and clean. There is a breakfast room with free coffee and creamer and vending machines if you’re hungry. Pool area was ok but lots of families with little kids using it (I know, what do you expect?!?) and the water was cloudy. Lots of chaise lounges and a few outdoor seating areas. Wi-Fi seems to have been maxed out in the evenings."

Omni San Diego Hotel at the Ballpark

8/10 Good

"My daughter and I were in town for Comic Con this year (2026) and needed a nice hotel to stay in which was close to the convention center: the Omni at the Ballpark certainly fit that bill. (I am a writer and had a booth at the convention.) We found the servers at the Fres.co (breakfast) and at Tortuga (lunch) to be very kind (the staff in general was eager to please). We availed ourselves of the pool and hot tub. The beds were comfortable. My only complaint is that Saturday night there was a private party at the pool. It ran well past midnight. It was very difficult to sleep with all of the noise."
