Top Rancho San Diego Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza San Diego - Mission Valley by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"I recently stayed here on a one night trip to San Diego to see a friend. The property is massive, very well maintained by staff. From check-in to check-out, things ran smoothly, the room was big and comfortable and clean. Fair warning the property is massive so it was a bit of a maze to try to find my room when I first arrived. They have a beautiful courtyard along with an amazing swimming pool right smack in the middle of the hotel which was beautiful. Few minor little things that I think the hotel could look at to improve it and make it that much better would be: The shower in my room was not very hot during my stay which was kind of weird, it was lukewarm at best. Secondly, I had notified Front desk and they approved a late check out for me, however house keeping the morning of departure decided to knock twice in under a hour even after I told the front desk and got approval for the late checkout. So maybe better communication between the front desk and the housekeeping staff. Overall though I would recommend this property, just be aware they do charge for overnight parking, which I have mixed feelings about. They should implement a visitor parking so that people who are just here to visit can park free of charge. It is $5 USD per hour."

Kings Inn San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone here was super friendly and kind. They were extremely responsive and fixed the weather stripping on my door as soon as I mentioned it to them. The pool and hot tub was clean and stocked with floats and toys for families and the hot tub was actually hot! Not like warm like most hot tubs in corporate franchised hotels. The restaurants were excellent and the portions are well worth the price."
