Holiday Inn Express San Diego - Sea World Area, an IHG Hotel, hotel in San Diego

Directly off Interstate 8, Holiday Inn Express San Diego is conveniently located near SeaWorld. This California hotel offers a free daily hot breakfast buffet with automatic pancake maker.

The rooms are comfy, and the staff was decent. The rooms have everything you need. The only reason I gave it a 7 was because the breakfats buffet was lacking. Everything was gone and took forever to get replenished. Then, when you asked, the kitchen staff had a bit of a rude attitude. All in all I would recommend this hotel though. It's great for families, and the location is not bad. Not too far from Mission Beach and Sea World.

FAQs about hotels in San Diego









The Art of Easy Living

Sweeping along the coast against a mountain backdrop, San Diego has easy living down to a fine art. Its wonderful beaches and mild climate make it a favorite spring break destination, and with over 40 city breweries, there are plenty of ice cold beers to set the mood.

The city’s most recognizable landmark is the Hotel del Coronado, a wooden Victorian beach resort, now a National Historic Landmark. As original Spanish mission and first in California, it's has been relocated to the Mission Valley area, and Old Town San Diego still has many Colonial buildings and quirky shops. Also great for shopping are Horton Plaza and the boutiques in the beachfront neighborhoods.

The city’s most famous attraction is its zoo in Balboa Park, a few blocks from San Diego International Airport. One of the world’s largest zoos, it is well worth a visit, as is the fantastic SeaWorld, home to several killer whales. To see wildlife in its natural habitat head to La Jolla beach where harbor seals rest, or watch whales in season from Point Loma Lighthouse.

Just over the border from Mexico’s Tijuana, San Diego has a distinctly Latin American vibe and a variety of accommodations encompassing apartments, motels, B&Bs and hotels. See Booking.com for the best deals.

    The city appears clean, uncluttered, with lots of green space, beautiful flowering shrubs, flowers, palm trees, and beaches. We've visited before; this time we were in town for graduation at Point Loma Nazarene University, and enjoyed our stay. Balboa Park is amazing, and we attended an organ concert there last time.

    Love the Little Italy section of Dan Diego.

    Love the Little Italy section of Dan Diego. The Saturday market is wonderful in the plaza. The historic boats on the bay and the waterfront walk is beautiful. It's a pleasant walk to Seaport Village. Our grand daughter loves the carousel. The whale watching tours and dinner cruises are out of the area by the Midway historic ship.

    San Diego is so geographically diverse is so many things to do and go. The freeways are easy to use . The Mexican food and seafood is amazing. The beaches are beautiful, especially in Pacific Beach it’s so scenic . The restaurants are amazing shelter Island is a beautiful place to eat and to take a walk. The food is so delicious so many different cultures to choose from . Use Yelp to guide you to where go. San Diego can be very expensive plan your trip ahead of time. I would avoid Tour season April and September is the best time to come to San Diego to avoid the crowd .

    The room was big and very clean, and we had 2 comfortable beds. When we checked in the room allocated was close to the elevators, and we asked to move which they did to a much quieter room. The hotel overall is a little dated, but we liked the holiday atmosphere. Breakfast was very good, the only suggestion is that they would use real knives and forks, plates etc. instead of plastic. Parking was plentiful and free. The hotel is close to bars and restaurants, and convenient for all the highlights that San Diego offers.

    I booked a last minute room at the Keating because no other hotels had availability. I had to go to San Diego to visit friends who were at a conference and all the hotels in the Gaslamp District were either full or incredibly expensive. The Keating offered a rate under $300 which seemed very fair for what I saw in the pictures. I could tell it was an older property located in hundred-year old building but the location was where I needed to be.

    I love the beautiful view of the Palm trees outside of my room. The room size was perfect and very clean, the carpet was clean, the staff was amiable, and the breakfast prices were reasonable. The hotel was 20 mins away from Downtown and attractions. I would recommend this hotel to stay in and will stay again next time I visit San Diego! The Pool scenery is very beautiful and the pool temperature was just right, warm!

    Very well valued quality of stay for anyone who is visiting San Diego and wants to stay in Downtown. The hotel is located at the edge of downtown core so it is very easy walk around the city centre. Hotel offers on site parking garage that they share in Holiday Inn (instructions of garage use are a bit confusing for non English speakers). Rooms are very spacious and clean!

    The hotel is well located in the north of San Diego. The center can be reached with the trolley green lane (although the stop is not so close). The room was large and overall clean, although some maintenance is needed. The swimming pool outside is also nice (but small and during my stay I did not exploit it too much (see below)).
