Horton Grand is as advertised
The hotel is in a great location and makes San Diego very walkable. Horton Grand is very unique and actually quite a beautiful hotel. The only negative was the greeting from the woman upon my arrival and departure- she seemed rushed and disorganized. The rest of the staff was great. I'd stay there again.

Great Victorian Hotel
Stayed downtown because we had a Holiday Party at the Rockbottom Brewery. The hotel was quaint, the service was excellence. The hotel was older but we loved the historical feeling of it. The rooms are smaller, but we didn't need a spacious room for one night. We enjoyed our stay! Ask for a quiet room facing the courtyard.

Lots of charm
This hotel is full of old charm and lots of cute details. If you are into a super modern look then this is not the place for you; but if you like to stay some place with uniqueness and character then this is it!

Great Old World Charm
Greeted promptly by friendly staff, the room was ready and everything in place for a fantastic stay in the popular Gas Lamp District of San Diego. Old world charm abounds in this recently renovated hotel. Love the charm, the location and the friendly staff.

Hotel looks like ready to close
This hotel looked like it was ready to close. The staff was friendly and the location was convenient but it was overpriced for what you got. This hotel could use some updating. The ambiance was not inviting.

Lucky
Some things were meant to end.
Well, [...] at the front desk was a very helpful individual and quite friendly. So, I have to give him credit. As for the hotel, it does not offer much in the way of amenities. To be honest, I really didn't find it worth the price. Extra for the balcony room? Ours looked into a giant tree. That's all we could see. We couldn't use the fan in the room b/c it made too much noise. Worst of all, the shower head didn't work properly and the water came out in spurts, if any. We told the staff and they said they'd get right on it. They NEVER came to the room. We opted to skip the shower the second night...not even worth it. Worst of all, we were charged $25/day to park our vehicle at the hotel we were paying to stay at. That's ridiculous.
