During your San Diego vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego Downtown
Opened in 1993, the downtown branch is the second location of the Museum of Contemporary Art (the original branch is in La Jolla). Two large and two smaller galleries present changing exhibitions of nationally and internationally distinguished contemporary artists; plan to spend about half an hour here. Lectures and tours for adults and children are also offered. The first Thursday evening of every month is "TNT" (Thursday Night Thing), with eclectic artist events and drawing the martini set. In 2005 MCA will take over the baggage building of the Santa Fe depot across the street, which will almost triple the exhibition space at this branch, making it the preeminent museum in downtown. Docent tours are available on request.
Knott's Soak City USA
Themed to replicate San Diego's surfer towns around the 1950s and 1960s, this 32-acre water park is San Diego's only facility of its type. There are 22 slides of all shapes and sizes, a 500,000-gallon wave pool, a 1/4-mile lazy river, and assorted snack facilities. The park is located about 25 minutes south of downtown, just north of the border line.
Torrey Pines State Reserve
The rare Torrey pine tree grows in only two places in the world: Santa Rosa Island, 175 miles northwest of San Diego, and here, at the north end of La Jolla. Even if the twisted shape of these awkwardly beautiful trees doesn't lure you to this spot, the equally scarce undeveloped coastal scenery should. The city first donated 369 acres as a public park, and the 1,750-acre reserve was established in 1921, from a gift by Ellen Browning Scripps. The reserve encompasses the beach below, as well as a lagoon immediately north, but the focus is the 300-foot-high, water-carved limestone bluffs, which provide a precarious footing for the trees. In spring, the wildflower show includes bush poppies, Cleveland sage, agave, and yucca. A half-dozen trails (all under 1 1/2 miles in length) travel from the road to the cliff edge or down to the beach, and there's a small visitor center, built in the traditional adobe style of the Hopi Indians and featuring a lovely 12-minute video about the park. Watch for migrating gray whales in winter, or dolphins who patrol these shores year-round. For a taste of what Southern California's coast looked like a couple hundred years ago, this delicate spot is one of San Diego's unique treasures. Note: There are no facilities for food or drinks inside the park -- bring a picnic lunch.
Dana Inn and Marina
The Dana completed a $20 million renovation and expansion in 2004 which added 74 contemporary rooms in a three-story arc wrapping around an infinity pool. These rooms are a fair upgrade from the sleepy old Dana, but the old rooms, in two-story buildings, were spruced up at the same time. Some overlook bobbing sailboats in the recreational marina, others face onto the original kidney-shaped pool whose surrounding Tiki torch-lit gardens offer shuffleboard and Ping-Pong. You'll pay a little extra for bay and marina views; if the view doesn't matter, save your money -- every one of the old rooms is the same size, with plain but well-maintained furnishings. The new rooms are bigger and feature water views and reclaimed redwood beam ceilings. Beaches and SeaWorld are a 15-minute walk away (there's also a complimentary shuttle). Meals and room service (including poolside food and cocktail ministrations) are available through the new restaurants, Firefly Bar & Grill and Blue Pearl.
Best Western Bayside Inn
This corner of downtown is just starting to become developed, but this high-rise, representative of reliable Best Western, offers quiet lodgings. Although calling it "bayview" would be more accurate than "bayside," rooms in the 14-story hotel reveal nice city and harbor views. Rooms and bathrooms are basic chain-hotel issue, but are well maintained and feature brand-new bedding, towels, and draperies; all have balconies overlooking the bay or downtown (ask for the higher floors). The accommodating staff makes this a mecca for budget-minded business travelers, and this Best Western is also close to downtown's tourist sites. It's an easy walk to the Embarcadero, a bit farther to Horton Plaza, and just 5 blocks to the train station. Best of all, there's no charge for parking -- almost unheard of among downtown hotels.
Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego
A second, 33-story tower was recently added to the Grand Hyatt, doubling the number of guest rooms and greatly increasing the facility's meeting space. San Diego's largest hotel continues to be one of the city's most successful operations, even though a behemoth with 1,625 rooms can't offer much in the way of personalized attention -- in fact, complaints about tardy room service are common. All the public spaces are grand and airy, sporting a limestone-and-marble neoclassical theme; there aren't many subtle notes here, the opulence is never understated. But you'll enjoy all the expense-account amenities, including a 40th-floor lounge that offers stunning views over the city and San Diego Bay (the Hyatt is the tallest waterfront lodging on the West Coast). Guest rooms are quiet with high-quality but standard Hyatt-issue furnishings. Bathrooms have ample counter space, and the facility gets kudos for superior service for travelers with disabilities. Request a corner unit for optimal views. The hotel is generally the first choice of large conventions, so rack rates can be deceptively high. Don't let them scare you off if you want to stay here -- weekend rates in particular can be a great deal.
