San Diego's first (and only) guest-only hotel means safety, security, and privacy, all wrapped up in a $30-million renovation of a historic 1904 building. No design detail has been overlooked in this comfortable, cosmopolitan addition to lively Gaslamp. Thoughtful touches like zebra-print rugs and peacock-shaped lamps in guest rooms act as an homage to the building's history as temporary housing for numerous animals on their way to the nearby San Diego Zoo. A 24/7 security guard keeps the public out, allowing guests to feel at home in one of the 96 rooms, all of which have soundproof windows to block out street noise. A hot breakfast is included with the rate, but Granger encourages guests to get out and experience San Diego's extensive options of nearby restaurants, returning to relax and perhaps enjoy a nightcap in The Parlor Room adjacent to the lobby lounge. A partnership with the parking garage off 5th Avenue and Broadway allows for overnight parking with in-and-out privileges for $40 a night—a bargain in pricey downtown. 

This upscale boutique hotel on Gore Creek is perfectly located for outdoor enthusiasts, but its private fireplaces and featherbeds, as well as the sprawling spa and fitness center, may tempt guests to spend the entire stay indoors.

The 18,000-square-foot fitness center has a hefty lineup of group fitness classes and Peloton bikes. Park for free in the public lot across the street and walk into town in just a few minutes.

Each room is named for a former member of the Guild, and in-room treats and toiletries are sourced from local, women-owned companies; some have kitchenettes. The hotel uses an invisible service model, so guests let themselves in but can access concierge services via text or phone.

Beaming with LED light shows that can be seen from miles away, this prominent 450-foot guitar-shaped hotel is a magnet for folks looking for Las Vegas–style entertainment (i.e., casinos that never close, clubbing, and hedonism).

A large casino is just part of the story here. The Hard Rock Live presents nightly music, concerts, and shows by the top performers in the world. The 4½-acre pool complex comes replete with a jaw-dropping waterslide and a Vegas-style nightclub/dayclub, DAER.
