The good stuff: Palomar's are typically upscale, very modern, hip, comfortable hotels. This property lived up to the reputation of other gorgeous Palomar Hotel's I've stayed. The lobby was inviting and beautiful. The bar...well...let's just say that I could move into the bar and be quite comfortable. The staff was friendly and beautiful (I swear, Kimpton consistently hires from Hollywood... More

Great location, very very contemporary, even the entry door is weird and tricky the whole wall moves and rotates. The bar is nice, prompt service all fresh ingredients drinks. Thats good and bad for some since they can't make like a standard tom collins or long island. Service was great from top to bottom. Seems like everyone gets paid well,... More

No matter which Kimpton myself and my family stay at the staff has been phenomenal! The first Kimpton we stayed at in Alexandria,Va, we had all three of our children with us. The gentleman who brought us up to our room mentioned the different types of pillows they had and the kids were excited! Do you know he went out... More

Stayed at this hotel for one night after finding a deal on a room. For the ultra modern, less is more fans, this is the hotel for you. The location is fine for walking the gas lamp area for sights and food options. Parking is expensive via valet but then again I felt better (after seeing some of the street... More

Great place to host an event!! Very helpful staff and great location. Thanks to Jenn and Corrie for their support with all of the details! More

A business/pleasure trip for 3 days. Our first at a Klimpton property. It is in the Gaslamp district and very close to many restaurants, bars and opportunities for night life. And an easy walk (15 min) to the water front ferry to Coronado or any of the sights along the water. Seaport Village is only a few minutes more, past... More

This hotel was average at best, and Poor by my standards. First, let's talk location. Yes, it's in the Gaslamp District, which is how it is advertised. However, it is in the LAST block of the Gaslamp, about 9-12 blocks removed from the water and on the very northern end. It is also right next to a free trolley station... More

Maybe marginal is not the right word. Nothing about the hotel is WRONG, per se, which is why I give it 4 stars. It's conveniently located in the Gaslamp, the beds are very comfortable, the entryway to the hotel is a MAGNIFICENT oversized door, the staff is friendly and efficient, etc. But... I stayed there for two nights with my... More

The Palomar San Diego is a beautiful hotel (clean, modern, quiet, nice amenities). Our stay was lovely from the moment we walked in and the staff went above and beyond to help us with the area (neighborhood info, finding shops to buy a gift, restaurants, etc.). We would absolutely stay here again! Thank you Hotel Palomar. More
