This hotel is absolutely charming with a true resort vibe. Nestled on a gentle hillside, the separate cottages give it a unique, laid-back feel—though it might be a bit tricky to find at first glance due to the varying elevations. Once you get settled in, it all makes perfect sense. The breakfast buffet is fantastic—abundant, delicious, and served with scenic views that make mornings even better. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always going the extra mile. Best of all, it’s just a 5-minute walk from Old Town train station and the main bus terminal, making getting around San Diego super easy.

Best Western Plus Bayside Inn

The building doesn’t look impressive from the outside, but the rooms are surprisingly spacious and well-maintained—definitely more than expected. We were pleasantly surprised by the breakfast package, which included a variety of fresh options we didn’t anticipate at all. It made our morning so much better. The only downside was the $30 parking fee, which is a bit steep, but considering how close the hotel is to downtown San Diego and the waterfront, it’s worth it for the convenience. Overall, an excellent stay with great value, especially for travelers who prioritize location and comfort.

Staying at the Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego was an absolute delight. The hotel is immaculately clean, and every staff member went out of their way to make us feel welcome—friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful. The ocean view from our room was nothing short of breathtaking; waking up to that vista was a highlight of the trip.

It’s a top-tier choice for anyone looking for a relaxing, well-located stay in San Diego.
