The Westin San Diego

The Westin San Diego sits on the outskirts of the Gaslamp Quarter, and is part of an office building.  As you enter the lobby, a huge open atrium with skylights sheds beautiful sunlight throughout the property.

The check-in desk is to the right, and each Front Desk Agent has their own “station”.  Check-in was smooth, with all amenities clearly explained.  I was told that I was given a room on the “SPG” Floor, which seems like a regular room but on a higher floor.

The hotel also offer three different types of fruit flavored water in the lobby, on a seemingly rotating basis.  During my stay, I noticed strawberry, lemon, orange, pineapple, and melon flavored water.  The melon and pineapple were my favorites.

Dresser, TV, Refrigerator

I was given a Traditional Room with a King bed.  As you enter the room, there is a dresser with TV directly to the right.  There are two bottles of complimentary water with a small refrigerator.

Bed & Sitting Area

The room is fairly spacious with a king bed and ample space to walk around the room.  To the right of the bed is a small sitting area.

Desk

View

To the left, there is a small desk with a partial ocean view.  The room also faces an office building so having the curtains open can cause for some embarrassing moments if not careful.

Bathroom Sink

Shower/tub & Toilet

To the left of the entrance sits the bathroom, which is spacious.  There is ample counter space with a shower/tub combo.

The hotel is clean, personnel is friendly and professional.  Rates seems to be a little cheaper compared to being directly in the Gaslamp Quarter.

Valet parking is $32 per day, but there is some metered parking in the surrounding area which is free after 6 PM and on Sundays.
