8.4/10 Very Good! (1,510 reviews)
This historic building of a hotel is beautiful. Located conveniently, walking distance from the Gaslamp Quarters, but is relatively quiet & peaceful. Valet parking is very convenient. Staff is very pleasant & accommodating. We were upgraded, too, to their premiere floor. Corner room was cozy, but very aesthetically pleasing.
