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."

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

Lonely Planet "Across from Westfield Horton Plaza, the historic Sofia has 212 rooms so fashionable you’d never guess it’s right down the block from the Greyhound station." Full review
National Geographic "“I recommend the Sofia to friends on a budget; the rooms are like cute modern studio apartments... this 212-room urban boutique hotel occupies a brick-facade building." Full review
i
Avoid rear rooms overlooking the bus depot; corner rooms are small but bright.
Afar Magazine "The rooms are smaller than a modern hotel, but remember, this hotel was built before the "bigger is better" model was in vogue. The dining room, called Currant Brasserie, is a charming place." Full review
Frommer's "This stately brick Gothic Revival building from 1929 offers stylish and modern lodging accessible to the Gaslamp, Embarcadero and Little Italy" Full review
