Gaslamp Plaza Suites

The room was spacious and very clean. Maybe they upgraded me as a surprise without informing me—I’m not sure! 😇 I love the classic style of everything here. The location is also very convenient. There’s a health-focused supermarket called Krisp nearby, where you can buy healthy food and other essentials.

Nice and clean. close to bars and restaurants

FEB 2026 — Really good location, a bit dated but that’s also the charm. You’re at the “top” of gaslamp area so walking to amazing restaurants couldn’t be easier. Convention center is a very nice 8 min walk. Very much enjoyed the rooftop area although it’s really just one coffee machine and patio tables up there but the hotel is correct in that the views are really great. Very quiet hotel on the 6th floor, don’t even know if I had neighbors, maybe once during the week heard a fire truck or ambulance outside (which is true for any downtown hotel). House cleaning was excellent everyday and near spotless each time. Room A/C and heat was pretty fast, although the jr suites in this hotel are on the small side so easy to get temp to where you want. Amenities are super basic “farmer bothers” coffee (do not recommend, tons of options near by) and non-named shampoo/conditioner wall pump style, but at the rate you are paying for this room, not bad at all. After this stay with a conference at the convention center, for the rate, a pretty good value and location. Valet parking is pricey but that is everywhere and the valet guys were super nice and helpful. Very much a go-to hotel if you don’t want to pay $350/night at the other large chain hotels nearby.

This is my second stay at the Gaslamp Suites and is my go to for San Diego, and my company's also. Staff is incredible, rooms are immaculate and nicely appointed. Great location right in the Gaslamp Quarter.
