    This is not worth your money. While it was walking distance to little italy, the gas lamp and the coronado ferry, its still an uber or drive to most other things. This includes the airport, for which there is no shuttle. Parking is insane at 60+ a night. The room size was good but noise is a HUGE factor in the front room. We herd the echos of reception hour, breakfast and weddings all day. The wait for breakfast and reception hour was 20-30 mins every day. No to go breakfast bags like most hilton hotels for people leaving early. BUT the main problem was our bathroom. The shower did not drain. You had about 30 seconds before standing in inches of dirty water that took hours to drain. We reported this 3 times. On the third time we were told they "didnt know what else to do". We were told a night would be refunded, but it never was. At over $300 a night this hotel simply isnt worth it.

    Emplacement idéal pour visiter les principaux attraits touristiques en Uber. Les chambres sont spacieuses et propres, le restaurant est super, il y a un petit dépanneurs avec alcool et collations diverses. Chaque soir l’hotel vous offre 2 verres pour le happy hour. Vous avez aussi 25$ en crédit à utiliser à la boutique ou au restaurant à chaque jour. Le déjeuner brunch a plu à toute la famille. En général, nous avons grandement apprécié notre séjour de 5 nuits et nous le recommandons. L’hotel est à 2 pas de plusieurs restos et du Top Gun Bar.

    Location is great. The $25 daily destination fee was annoying on top of the $70 parking fee. We are HH members and often stayed at ES. We stayed at this one for 3 nights after Xmas and found that the staff shortage in the restaurant serving breakfast and rooms was overwhelming compared to other ES. There’s no way that they did not foresee this based on their bookings at full capacity. The staff looked worn out and there were shortages of lots of things, utensils , plates, including room towels, blankets and also cleaning services.

    When we got there, the front desk told us that our bay view hotel room was under ‘maintenance’, and got us another ‘city view’ room. The ‘city view’ was a parking lot, and they gave us 3 bottles of water to ‘make up for it’. We had paid for a room with 2 queen beds, but instead we got a queen bed and a sofa sleeper. The sofa didn’t come with blankets and sheets, so we phoned the front desk. They picked up after 30 minutes. We went to the gift shop, and everything was so overpriced. A bag was $40, a jacket was $45, and a bottle of wine was $44. In comparison, a wine bottle of the same brand in a store is $14. Definitely not worth staying, many problems.

    I need 7 stars for the service here. This hotel is worth every dollar, because they cater to you. I had my first maple sausage, caramelized onion with cheese omelet to die for. You do not have to make your breakfast everything is set on your plate just ask . The best part of the breakfast experience it's complimentary. In addition, there is complimentary evening 🍸 beverages 530pm to 7pm. Heated pool in the lobby. And my view is phenomenal I have view of the bridge , ocean, and marina . And I'm one mile from Petco park, too bad no games are available due to Christmas season. The palm trees are decorated with lights. And there is valet parking it will cost you but the customer service is impeccable. My family did not have to lift a finger because the bell man took our luggage. In addition, they welcomed family with complimentary snacks to the room. But dont touch the other snacks they will charge you. Well Done Embassy Suites Hilton
