Overall our stay was great. Nice hotel, friendly staff. Located perfectly for easy access to shops and restaurants. I got a suite with what thought was pool access but the gate from our patio to the pool was locked for security reasons, I understand. However I think they should invest in a key entry for the gate. A hotel at this caliber and booking a suite I would expect access to the pool directly from our room. Other than that my wife and I like the hotel. We would definitely come back. Maybe just not get a suite by the pool.

Hi David, Thank you for your feedback and understanding of our pool security measures. I'll relay your suggestion to management and hope we can allow access to the pool from the suites in the future. I am glad you and your wife enjoyed your stay with us.

We had a great 4-night stay at the Kimpton Solamar for a spring break getaway and to attend opening weekend of baseball! Our room (a Deluxe King) was comfortable and quiet, the perfect spot to rest and sleep while enjoying San Diego's Gaslamp area. The location was ideal, less than 2 blocks from Petco Park, an easy 1-mile walk to the Embarcadero waterfront and USS Midway museum, and surrounded by an almost unlimited choice of restaurants, pubs, shopping, and street life. This area of San Diego was clean, safe, and bustling with lots of activity and very friendly people. The rooftop pool and bar area was a great spot to unwind at the end of the day. Two very minor improvements that would have made things even better: the sink was very slow to drain, and one day when we returned to our room at 3pm it had not yet been serviced for clean towels. I really liked the daily texts asking if there were any issues that needed to be addressed, and the lobby staff was exceptionally cordial as well. The next time we visit San Diego we will definitely stay here again.

Thank you so much for the review, Michael! We're happy you got to enjoy our Padres - even if it wasn't a winning streak, at least you were close to home when the game was over! We appreciate the feedback, and we'll make sure to follow up with the appropriate departments so we don't repeat the issues next time you come to stay. We hope that will be sooner rather than later!
