If you’re looking for personality and San Diego history in the Gaslamp District, this hotel delivers. From the vintage 1913 elevator to the cozy rooms, I truly enjoyed my stay here. The rooftop patio is a showstopper and offers a great place to relax and see the city below. Staff were courteous, the restaurant lovely, and the front desk very helpful. The bed is comfy and the in-room bar fridge is stocked. I loved the vibe here, but it’s not for you if you don’t appreciate the quirky bits that come along with a heritage building.

I’ve stayed in Palihotels before so despite the reviews I wanted to try it myself. Before I even got to my room I was stuck on the elevator…the doors on the vintage lift are super heavy and only one elevator was working so it was a wait every time (it wouldn’t be bad if I wasn’t on the 9th floor) the queen hotel room is extremely tiny, you can’t even open your luggage without it hitting the wall, but didn’t matter as much bc I unpacked and was able to tuck my luggage next to the AC. Apart from that staff is great, restaurant/bar was too as well as the food. Just be aware if you’ve stayed at Palihotels before this one is more on the smaller side.
