Nice hotel with fun room design and lots of little gimmicks inside. The beach bar is great to hang out in and the gym was not bad. The location is so-so, it's not really near anything - didn't even appear to be near many office buildings, just surrounded by carparks. We got a good deal on a corporate rate plan... more

My husband and I stayed at the W San Diego over the 4th of July weekend. After reading the reviews, I was a little concerned about the quality of the hotel and whether or not my husband and I (who are in our mid 30s) would find the demographic of the hotel relaxing. The reviews mentioned that the hotel is... more

This hotel is located in downtown San Diego and that's the best part - location. Where do I start - The Pool was closed, Internet cost extra except in the lobby. No coffee available anywhere in the hotel except in the restaurant. No chair to sit in the room - a window seat way to high to use. The shower... more

There was a kerfuffle at check-in, as the hotel had overbooked and did not have a room for us (even though we had prepaid). The W moved us to Westin Gaslamp (a sister hotel) for the night and refunded the night's booking. However, the staff were very pleasant and did attempt to make the rest of the 5-night stay very... more

I highly recommend this hotel for comfortable rooms, a bit of luxury, and excellent customer service. This hotel is hip, cool, and offers excellent service. The basic rooms offer a sitting area, gorgeous modern decor, and beautiful bathrooms. The suites offer even more space and are mainly on the corner (windows on two sides). The gym is small, but was... more

The hotel is in a decent location. The lobby and check-in just didn't give off the W vibe. The room was the same. It was nicely decorated, but too small and just did not feel the hip W vibe. Nice outdoor lounge with comfy sofas. The sand is not comfy for the ladies (heels). The pool sucks; it's smaller than... more

I stayed here for two nights in March of 2008. I loved my room. The lobby was under construction so I can not comment on the typical setting of the hotel, but I found this to be a very nice hotel. I enjoyed the room service. My food was good. The gym is very nice and I enjoyed its "open... more

I stayed at the W Hotel three years and enjoyed it, but this visit was extremely disappointing. Instead of cool and cutting-edge, it now feels dated and in need of refreshing. To start with the positive, all of the staff have been courteous and professional. It's unfortunate that their politeness is not enough to make this hotel a worthwhile place... more

We stayed at the W for 2nights/3 days (memorial day wkend). Positives: Clean, comfy bed! Concierge (Hector) will go above & beyond to assist you - he's amazing! Friendly service at the spa. Something came up and I thought we would have to cancel our massage appt, but the guy at the spa (Scott I think) really worked w/us so... more
