3-Star Hotels in San Diego

This was the most satisfying hotel booking I made on Ctrip during my three stays on this trip to the Western US. Everything was great, except I felt the price was a bit high. The breakfast was very rich. Even I, someone who usually prefers Chinese breakfast, was quite satisfied. Oh, and it seems like in the US, rooms are typically cleaned every two days by default; you might need to specifically request daily cleaning from the hotel.

I checked into Embassy Suites by Hilton San Diego La Jolla on Friday evening this week. During my stay, I accidentally lost my passport, which caused me a great deal of stress, as it is extremely important to me. I would like to sincerely thank Celsa and Kayla, as well as any other staff members whose names I may have missed. With their help, my passport was eventually found and carefully kept safe for me. Their professionalism, kindness, and patience truly made a difficult situation much easier. I am deeply grateful for their support and care, and this experience really showed me how much the staff genuinely looks out for their guests. Thank you again to the wonderful team at Embassy Suites by Hilton San Diego La Jolla.

We stayed three nights at the Fairfield Inn San Diego Mission and overall had a very positive experience — I’d rate it 8.5/10. The rooms are surprisingly spacious and well-equipped. Everything worked as it should, and having a microwave was really convenient. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of room to spread out. Parking was a major plus — free and plentiful as long as you’re checked in. They also have EV chargers on-site, which was a big bonus for us. Breakfast is included, which is great at this price point. That said, the selection got pretty repetitive after a couple of days. It’s still a solid perk, especially if you’re on a budget. A couple of things worth noting: • Housekeeping is not daily, so keep that in mind if you’re traveling with kids or need regular room cleaning. • The bathroom door swings out like a regular door and is positioned very close to the main room door, which felt a bit awkward at times. It’s not a dealbreaker, but something to be aware of if you have mobility concerns. The hotel is a bit removed from walkable dining options, so having a car is helpful unless you’re okay with Uber or driving for meals. All in all, the spacious rooms, reliable amenities, free parking, and solid value made this a good choice. We’d stay here again.

The hotel room is very old. The location and environment are very good. However, after the departure, the authorization deposit was deducted for more than 28 US dollars. No one mentioned it, including Ctrip and the hotel front desk. I don't know why the previous comments didn't mention Everyone should pay attention to when considering hotels.

Hotel located in Little Italy. Very close to the restaurants and a walkable distance to bus and trolley stations. Room is small but clean. Has a hair dryer and iron. Did not seem to have room service included but it didn't bother me as I was only there for a short stay. In general a great place for a solo traveller to stay for a short time.

The hotel has a simple and clean environment, but the breakfast is too simple and feels too shabby. The overall service is acceptable, but the location is excellent and it is very convenient for sightseeing.

Good point It is close to several major tourist attractions in San Diego. It is also close to the station (trolley, Amtrak) and the bus stop, so you don't have to worry about transportation. The supermarket (Ralphs) is also within 5 minutes walk, so it is cheaper than others, so it is recommended to procure water at this supermarket. The lobby part of the hotel was so much, but the room was quite fashionable and better than I imagined. There is a shared train range in the lobby. Not good. Because it was unmanned at check-in, there were some guests who were troubled because they did not know how to check in. It may depend on time, but I would like to improve the lobby, such as installing a call bell in an easy-to-understand manner.

A typical motel, traditional American breakfast, free parking! $ 50 deposit, cash is recommended, credit card refund has not been received for half a month! It's very close to Ocean Park, just 15 minutes by car to the aircraft carrier! There is a 711 supermarket across the road. It takes about 15-20 minutes to drive to the Chinese supermarket! Room was clean and overall good

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱. I stayed there for 2 weeks, working from home during the day, going out at night. Pros: - excellent value for the comfort and amenities at under $65/night - great desk & comfortable chair for laptop work - nice modern Philips large-screen TV you can connect to via HDMI - the Internet was ok (~10Mbps) but disconnected daily (reconnecting the WiFi restored it) - pretty quiet considering the proximity to the freeway: just white noise, haven't heard any revving or sirens - walls don't provide much sound insulation but I've heard only ONE neighbor conversation during my 2-week stay. It did help that I chose a room on the top floor, and next to the janitorial room (#522) - the wall-mounted A/C was surprisingly quiet, and heating worked fast - ventilation was okay if you keep the window open about 1ft - only saw 3 flying insects, and a crawling one in the shower - clean room, only found a few hair strands in the shower - mini-fridge was quiet and held a week's worth of food - great use of space: 4 large drawers, rack with clothes hangers, space for suitcases to be out of the way, 2 mirrors - the staff was very kind of provide a microwave, can opener, paper plates - pool was clean - two hot tubs were great, and MUCH cleaner than my friend's who stayed at the Courtyard by Marriott next door - coin-operated laundry on site ($2.50 + $2.50 W/D, $1.50 laundry soap) - nice landscaping and you could smell eucalyptus trees Neutral: - the pool/hot tub area closed at 10pm - there's nothing to do in the walkable area (just other hotels), but North Park is only a $10 Uber ride away, and the Fashion Mall is right across the freeway - construction in front of the lobby should be finished by the end of 2025 Cons: - gym was tiny and lacking: only 4 cardio machines (one elliptical that felt awkward) and one cable station with fixed cable points; no free weights, towels, or watercooler cups

Clean and room quiet. Friendly staff. I felt secure in this hotel. Wish there was easier access to public transportation, but all in all a happy experience.
