Decent room for the price. TV and AC in the room didn’t work, plus parking in the area is a hassle if you don’t do it through the overpriced valet service. One of the elevators was not working and made going to and from our floor difficult. Overall the stay was good for what it was but will probably not be coming back in the near future.

Palihotel is so charming and cute. It had everything I needed and then some. Amazing roof top deck, the restaurant is yum. Comedy club and authentic taco joint right next door. Great place to hang out while you are waiting for your flight upon checkout. Nice central location with a 20 min drive to La Jolla.

Rooms were good , smaller than I anticipated but really just used for sleeping , One elevator was down , understandable because the building is very old . I loved the bathroom , the tile was beautiful , I had a very large bathroom which I liked . Location was good for the Gaslamp experience. Overall good stay. The rooftop area is cute , bar not open in the winter.

Interesting old hotel. Everything has been upgraded to meet modern luxury expectations but the room layout is little quirky.

Could have been better
The hotel was funky and fun, the restaurant was very good, and the staff was super. Unfortunately the room was really disappointing - tiny, barely room to move around the bed, and a heater that sounded like an idling truck engine.

I didn’t like that the hotel doesn’t disclose that “pet friendly” isn’t clarified in the fact that they’re going to charge 100$ fee. And after already paying for the room, I didn’t have much of a choice to cancel the room due to me already paying for it. So the hotel puts you in a position where they’re going to twist your arm into forking over money. Which is honestly a sleazy thing to do to people. Also, they don’t bother cleaning the rooms we left a sign on the door requesting cleaning room services and it never came. The hotel clerk at check in seemed unhelpful and didn’t have any interest in the issues we experienced. When I mentioned that nobody came to clean the room his response verbatim was “I don’t know what to tell you”. Not only that I smelled alcohol in his breathe and seemed to have either been drinking alcohol prior to check out or during the time he was at work. Overall bad experience won’t be coming here again. But will definitely expose this place.

I recently stayed here and was disappointed by a couple of issues. One of the elevators wasn’t working, causing long wait times and inconveniences. On top of that, the room itself was much smaller than advertised and barely had a window. Staff & Service was great.

awesome location and far from the experience of a "chain" hotel. great "old style" gaited elevator (historic) and the roof was amazing but unfortunately roof bar was not open. price point was great and room was smallish but well decorated and had all I needed and the Gaslamp district was right out the door. relatively easy walk to conference center and this hotel was closer to where you want to be for dining etc than the big expensive hotels by conference center. would happily stay again.

Historic hotel in the heart of San Diego GasLamp
Good hotel, very quaint and historic. Had only 1 functional elevator that was really some work to operate because it was truly an antique elevator from 1913. Room was really good, but very cramped - hardly enough space to walk around. Not enough storage space for items. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Attached restaurant is Ok. Safe neighborhood.
