Hilton San Diego Bay Front Rocks!

The hotel staff were very professional and always had a bright and cheery smile on their face. Everything you could ever want in a hotel was either located on the premises or just a few blocks away in Downtown San Diego's Gaslamp district. The pool at the Hilton Bay Front Hotel was top notch and even kept pleasantly heated during the short intermission of rain we encountered on our trip to visit S.D. The Fox Sports Grill and Startbucks located within the hotel are a perfect place to relax with friends and family or grab a warm cup of Joe!. And did I mention the waterfront is located right outside your window. And there is plenty of great exercise equipment located within the hotels fitness centre or you can always walk or run along the water front located right outside the hotel. Absolutely had a blast their and waould recommend it for anyone to stay.

Oceanaire resturant is a great place to take the wife or girl friend out for a nice night out on the town. And don't forget to visit good ol' Ghiradelhi's Ice Cream paralor for dessert.

Nice Brand New Hotel

Hilton San Diego Bayfront is a brand new hotel directly across from Petco Park and the Gaslamp Quarter. With modern furnishings, a friendly staff, a great location, and decent room prices, this was an excellent choice.

Within a very short walk, lots of choices of restaurants and bars, from caual to fancy. I'd recommend both the Gaslamp Quarter and the many places along the waterfront, Seaport Village and beyond, for a little variety.

Beautiful Hotel

We came to San Diego 2 days early for a cruise. Hotel is new and very clean. Staff was extremely friendly. Our room overlooked the Coronado bridge as promised on the booking. Good location with a short walk to Gaslamp Quarter, Seaport Village, and Trolley for shopping and dining. Walking bridge is being built over the major street in front of hotel, so some areas of town were not easily accessible.

Restaurant in the hotel doesn't offer anything for vegetarians, but Fox Sports Grill does with large portions. Lots of dining options 1/2 mile away in Gaslamp Quarter.

Beautiful Bay and Bridge View

The hotel restaurants are terrific and reasonably priced. Great food, great staff and beautiful view. The rooms are terrific also since this is a relatively new hotel. Be sure to take a walk along the waterfront.
