Holiday Inn San Diego - Bayside, an IHG Hotel
Hotel · San Diego, CA
About
Unlike other downtown hotels in San Diego, this Holiday Inn is a budget-friendly option established in 1952. It's situated next to the airport with 24-hour access, so you can check in at any hour. The rooms are clean and spacious, with flat-screen TVs and good water pressure, according to recent guests. A swimming pool and free WiFi are available on site.
You'll need a car or cab to reach Hillcrest, the city's gayborhood, but it's only a short ride. The hotel offers solid value for its price tier, though the 3/5 Yelp rating suggests mixed experiences. If you're exploring downtown, it's a practical base without the frills of pricier options nearby, like Hard Rock Hotel San Diego .

Recently renovated hotel. No restaurant on the premises, but there are shops and eateries nearby.

More than a year ago the hidden fees at this hotel messed up our trip; they were terrible. Don't stay here.

“Stay at the Hotel Motel Hol-i-day-Inn!”
The Holiday Inn makes me think of that Pitbull song, and I never considered staying there until my girlfriend used her Entertainment Card to get us a room for $79 last week. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, there was a flatscreen TV, the shower had excellent water pressure, the space was roomy, and it was quiet. It's only about 15 minutes from downtown, so if you want an affordable place that isn't a rundown motel, this is a good choice. I would definitely recommend it.
