San Diego hotels

[dreamofmagic]

Hi everyone, so I’m hoping to go west coast next October we are starting in San Diego, then Anaheim and finish in LA, just wondering if anyone has any hotel recommendations for San Diego for 2 adults and a 9year old boy, we won’t be driving so looking for something pretty central, I can’t wait to get our planning properly underway to make up for our cancelled plans this year!

We wanted to be central so have booked a hotel at fisherman’s wharf. We really wanted the Hotel Zephyr but got a good deal on the Riu plaza... will keep my eye on the zephyr for deals nearer the time!

Duh I totally wasn’t paying attention to the title! We haven’t included San Diego this time as we are short on time but I would love to go someday, hope you have a great time!

We stayed at the Best Western Plus Island Palms. We had a good stay, after an initial issue with our room. They upgraded us and then gave us breakfast vouchers as an apology.We would stay there again.

I wouldn't say it's central, but San Diego is compact, so you can get around quite easily with an Uber or taxi.

Mission Valley is an area of San Diego that is the most centrally located. It is filled with hotels one after the other, and a major freeway runs through the center of it. There are also two large shopping malls in Mission Valley and a lot of restaurants throughout the area. It isn't what I would call a "scenic" location with the freeway there and there are a lot of businesses around too, but the hotels in Mission Valley are generally more affordable than the hotels in the city center and it is very central to everything. I've added a couple of pictures below that I took of Mission Valley to give you an idea of the area. These are a few of the hotels I would recommend in Mission Valley:


Hilton hilton/en/hotels/san...ission-valley/
Hampton Inn (free breakfasts) hilton/en/hotels/san...ission-valley/
Holiday Inn Express (free breakfasts): ihg/holidayinnexpres...bp/hoteldetail


If you want someplace more scenic with a resort feel, then I would suggest Shelter Island (which is actually a small peninsula and not an island). It is by the airport and close to the city center, and right on the bay. While Shelter Island is not a central location, it isn't terribly far from some of the main attractions in San Diego. There are two nice hotels on Shelter Island, right next to each other, that I can highly recommend:

Best Western Island Palms islandpalms/#gref
Humphrey's Half Moon Inn halfmooninn/


Both of these hotels have good restaurants on the property and while there are a limited number of restaurants within walking distance on Shelter Island, there are plenty of choices a short Uber ride away in the Liberty Station community.
