Concierge "Situated across the street from the famed "Hotel Del," the Glorietta Bay Inn often gets billed as the poor man's version of the grande dame, but this 11-room charmer has much to recommend it."
Fodor's "The inn is adjacent to the Coronado harbor and near many restaurants and shops, but it's much smaller and quieter than the Hotel Del, across the street." Full review
Lonely Planet "Overshadowed by the neighboring Hotel Del, the Glorietta is built in and around the 1908 Spreckels Mansion." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Many of the original fixtures of John D. Spreckels’ 1908 Edwardian mansion remain, including handmade plaster moldings, chandeliers, and a marble staircase."

Frommer's "The tropical setting beside a golf course makes the Crowne Plaza stand out... it's perfect for families who want resonably priced accommodations." Full review
Fodor's "Clean and comfortable, the Crowne Plaza may not have the frills of downtown hotels and coastal resorts, but it's a reliable pick for budget-minded families."
Lonely Planet "Throw some of the pennies you save into one of the waterfall-fed ponds inside and outside this expansive hotel. This chain is one of the best buys for quality." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The tropical decor still rules the public areas, but the rooms are contemporary and overlook the pool or neighboring golf course."
Gayot "This well-kept hotel has a pleasant resort vibe, with gardens, waterfalls, palms, lagoons and a heated outdoor pool."

"Its relatively central location right off the freeway makes it a convenient base for driving around the city." Full review
Fodor's "Isn’t in the hippest location, but it’s very convenient and close to many San Diego attractions...the attractive hotel features contemporary style, 400-square-foot standard rooms, and a large pool " Full review
Frommer's "It's perfect for families who want reasonably prices...at a minimum 322 square feet, the standard rooms are large enough for two plus luggage and accumulated stuff. Suites are double in size" Full review
Lonely Planet "Leafy convention-class hotel with a Polynesian theme (koi ponds and waterfalls) and rooms with supercomfy mattresses. Parking costs $13." Full review
