Meat-eaters should order the prime rib at the on-site restaurant—a house specialty.
DK Eyewitness "This 1926 inn was popular with Hollywood celebrities en route to holidays in Mexico in the 1920s and 30s. The original fixtures lend a delightful retro touch."
Rough Guide "This renovated apartment complex is a hundred years old. The stately hotel suites feature kitchens and pleasant, large sitting areas, and continental breakfast and wi-fi are free."
Lonely Planet "This 74-room gay-friendly place... used to be an apartment building, meaning mostly large rooms with kitchens, vast closets and early American decor." Full review

DK Eyewitness "Rebuilt from two Victorian-era hotels, this hotel reflects the character of the Gaslamp Quarter. Rooms are individually decorated in period style and each has a gas fireplace."

Michelin Guide "Period decor-including the refurbished hand-carved oak grand staircase in the lobby bar-recaptures the glory of the Gas lamp District."
Star Service "It sits in a convenient, central location, an easy stroll from downtown San Diego's premier dining options and nightlife, as well as PETCO Park (home of the Padres)." Full review
Gayot "Fans of the Victorian era will be charmed by the frilly decor, hand-crafted antiques and in-room fireplaces."
