Super Helpful Staff
We arrived super early, too early to check in. The staff recommended a really great breakfast joint. Then we walked to Seaport Village and took a "duck" tour. The staff at the Horton Grand was always there to give us helpful information.

Overcharged guest
Horton Grand Hotel
Ok, except they would mis quote prices of parking then double charge and mischarge for things. When you would ask them about it they would deny telling you prices and also would say there is nothing they can do about it.

Quiet, a bit dated
The hotel is in a good location in downtown San Diego. The architecture and furniture are supposed to be late 19th or early 20th century, and that gives it some charm. The interior is dated, and the hotel does not have a bussiness center. It's also somewhat expensive for what it has to offer. I'd recommend it for a getaway, but not for a bussiness trip.

This was a business trip combined with pleasure. This was a great hotel. The rooms were small but spotless clean and quite. The staff was like family, very helpful and friendly. We would stay there again in a minute.

Good Location in the Gaslamp Quarter
Extremely helpful staff and excellent location. No pool, part-time restaurant and bar are all slight drawbacks. However with the many food and drink establishments in the area it's not a real problem. Walking distance to Petco is a big plus. Our room had a balcony which allowed us to watch the craziness on the street but that same craziness could cause some noisy nights if you have a lower level room on the street. Over all a fine place to stay once for a quick trip to San Diego.

Blast from the Past
I was there for a convention. The location was great, within walking distance of everything I needed and what was not within walking distance was close by via Pedicab! The hotel was very elegant and the rooms well furnished. Nice furniture. Had a great time.

nothing to write home about
The hotel is located directly in the Gaslamp District so we could walk everywhere. It was very pretty and nice memorabilia decorating the hotel. However, it was very loud. We were on the second floor and we could hear people walking and creaky floors above us, all night long. Our room needed a paint job. The pillows were uncomfortable. Front desk staff was friendly, but the valet parking guy was not. He didn't open the trunk to our vehicle or put our luggage in the vehicle upon departure, like he did for the 4 previous vehicles in front of us.
