Weekend Getaway to the Gaslamp Dist.
My second stay with The Horton Grand. We were in town for a birthday and they helped me make it a memorable stay for the birthday girl. Accommodating for early checkin when called in advance. It is an older but still beautiful hotel rooms are a little dated but that goes along with the rest of the place which we liked. Enjoyed that we had a balcony to enjoy the lovely San Diego night air. Room did have a I’d say musty smell to it when we got in aired it out and was good to go for the evening.

Cool hotel in the gaslamp district. Bar was nice, loads of bar fly's though. When I arrived there was no power (for the whole near by 7 blocks) front of house were great, helpful and we're very professional and friendly despite the obvious pressure of having no electricity.

Charming boutique hotel in heart of Gaslamp. Stayed by myself and felt safe in the area as a single woman. Several walkable dining options - just around the corner from main downtown area. There is a cute Cat Cafe across the street where you can hang out with cats for an hour and sip coffee. Check in was very simple. Quaint lobby and old elevator - hallways and some areas are dated, but not in a gross way - I feel like it adds to the charm/character of historic hotel. I stayed in 432 and had the balcony on the top right of main face of hotel. Room equipped with coffee maker (looked a little dirty inside so didn’t use) vintage armoire, desk and chair by original bay windows, and very comfortable king bed. There was also a tv with app sign in capabilities and gas fireplace. Bathroom was a great size and good hot water. Some street noise at night, but minimal - makes sense being right downtown. I would highly recommend this hotel for short stays or a couples getaway. I didn’t eat in the restaurant but it has a great ambiance.

Location was perfect - very walkable to harbor/convention center and great food nearby. Lively area but the block itself was quiet. The property is cute, rooms a little dated but it fits with the historical character of the hotel. No coffee service or breakfast options in the hotel.
