It was nice to stay in an older building as opposed to the more modern hotels. Plus it was in the heart of downtown and within walking distance of Petco Park.

We had a wonderful stay at the Plaza Suites in the Gas Lamp area of San Diego. The hotel’s location is excellent. It was a quick walk to Petco Park to watch a game and close to so many great bars and restaurants. Our room was super clean and spacious. My wife and I enjoyed our stay.

Lived in San Diego county my entire life. Worked in downtown 10 years and yet never spent the night there. I was pleasantly surprised, the staff were funny and very helpful. The roof top deck is amazing, so cool to get that perspective of downtown. It was especially cool that the building is a piece of downtown San Diego history, being a native San Diegan that meant a lot to me.

Nice hotel. Had a corner unit which was very bright and light. Please take into consideration that Gaslamp Quarter bars and restaurants are very close and noisy at night.

The in-place security measures did a lot to ease anxiety. There were attendant(s) at the door; and, you had to use room key to operate the elevator. I felt very safe! The roof-top deck was an added surprise. It afforded us a place to relax, meet other guest, sip our beverages (coffee and tea provided); also the view of the surrounding area was fantastic! The property is conveniently located and we were able to walk to restaurants, shops, the park, and the Convention Center. The airport is about 4 miles away! My husband and I enjoyed our stay; and, the staff was phenomonal! We highly recommend the Gaslamp Plaza Suites; and, we plan to stay there for future trips to San Diego!
