Message from W Hotel San Diego

W Hotel San Diego

Sophistication with a time-honored tradition of service.

  • Pamper your pet at W
  • Whatever whenever is our motto
  • Special offers available

The W Hotel San Diego's enticing atmosphere is defined the lobby's post-modern decor, dramatic lighting, expansive bay windows and 18 plasma monitors that project stunning natural scenes. A glass "catwalk" is suspended above the 24-hour lobby, where live music is performed on the weekends. The hotel's eclectic perspective is evident in its choice of lexicon, where the fitness center is called "Sweat," the outdoor pool is named "Wet" and guests seeking the cocktail lounge are irresistibly drawn to the "Magnet." The unique Beach is an outdoor lounge that features a fire pit, heated sand floor and cabanas. RICE is the hotel's signature restaurant, featuring creative contemporary global cuisine and alfresco seating. Meeting facilities are available, as is complimentary Town Car transportation

The "W" has all of the amenities you would expect from a hip urban hotel...amazing customer service, fantastic attention to detail (the floormats in the elevators are changed throughout the day to read "good morning/afternoon/evening")...you really do get what you pay for...with a few caveats: 1) The windows are ridiculously thin. Bear in mind the lobby turns into a party on Friday and Saturday nights, and many of the revelers linger outside after midnight. I could hear every word of their conversations and I was on the sixteenth floor! After spending millions of dollars on the hotel, would it have kiled you to buy double paned windows? 2) The hotel "pool' (and I used the word loosely) is just slightly larger than a hot tub. It literally has space for 6 people around it. Granted, the Bay is just 3 blocks away, but for a beach-themed hotel, the pool was quite a let down. 3) No coffee? There wasn't a coffee maker to be found in the entire place. You can't walk around a motel 6 without falling over coffee makers! I'll admit, these are minor quibbles, but they did detract from the overall experience a bit. Great ambiance, great customer service, would definitely still recommend this hotel.

Pros: swank, hip, great location, bend-over-backwards customer service

Cons: expensive, lacking in basic amenities, loud at times

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I have never been disappointed by any W Hotel around the world. I don't care if they are faking it -- but they know how to take care of their dog-loving guests. Nearly every detail is taken care of from water bowls & treats near the taxi stand outside to the comfy dog beds and goodie bags given to the dogs. The best part is that every staff member from the front desk to the housekeepers all genuinely appear to love dogs and always have a friendly smile or petting session for your dogs. The dog-friendly part is just the cream on top. All Ws are beautiful. Modern, clean and always an inspiration for fans of contemporary design. Pay the little extra money -- it is definitely worth it!

Pros: Location, Staff, Pet-Friendly, Beautiful, Clean, Great Food

Cons: Can't think of any
