Horton Grand Hotel

We reserved a room with a fireplace, and when we got in, it wouldn't light. Staff came up and tried to fix it, and when they were not able to, they promptly moved us to another room with the exact same amenities. It's a historical hotel, not modern at all (pull chain toilets). I chose it for that reason. Very cute place!

Great location - 3-5 minutes walk from the san diego convention center. The room has one queen bed - very good if you are traveling alone to conferences. Also, there are plenty of restaurants and bars around, very safe area to walk around at night. A starbucks around the corner. Wireless internet is not free - 9.95 $ per 24 hours for wireless internet. The room is pretty -Victorian style old furniture etc.

After spending 30 min in line trying to check in, even though there was only 3 couples checking in ahead of me, I had to wait another 10 min for the valet to take my car. The staff is extremely slow, and the man at the front desk didn't mind taking his time to answer phone calls, and other guests questions while putting the check in process on hold. The location is amazing, a block away from everything. Even though the whole place is outdated, it has it's charm.

Old, historic very small rooms. Paid too much for not enough.

Horton Grand Hotel is located within a 5 minute walk of the San Diego convention Center. I enjoyed the location and service. However, amenities leave much to be desired. No internet was available.

The hotel was gorgeous and the staff very courteous. I attended a conference at the San Diego Convention center and was able to walk from the hotel. The charm of the hotel is what sold me. Beautiful Victorian style throughout the whole hotel. I highly recommend this hotel is you are visiting San Diego.

My only complaint was no coffee in the rooms! Otherwise the price was great, the accomodations were nice and it was within walking distance of lots of shops and restaurants. It was a good value for the money.

I loved the room and hotel. It would probably attract more people if it had a fitness room and a more lively bar. The bar needs Music! It was empty the 2 nights we were there (Friday & Saturday).

I love this hotel. Every time I used stairs, I feel like I am in 19th century. Each floor is a piece of art and mystery. And you should definitively use each elevator. There is a small surprise in one of them. There is only one bad part of staying in this hotel: The Internet is not included. I purchased it for 4 day by paying $30 and half of the time I could not use it. The connection was horrible. I waited one night half an hour to send 1 picture, then I give up and send it in the morning in 1 minutr.

We really enjoyed this hotel. We have stayed in the past and like the architecture and historic relevence. The fireplace adds a nice ambiance however it was too hot to use this trip. I will stay at this hotel again in the future.
