What guests think

Across many reviews, San Diego Marriott Gaslamp Quarter earns strong praise for its walkable, central location by Petco Park and the lively Gaslamp, friendly staff, and a popular rooftop bar with sweeping views that many guests really enjoy.

Common drawbacks include valet-only parking with high nightly fees and periodic elevator outages that cause long waits. Several guests also note dated rooms with small TVs and missing basics like a mini-fridge or safe, along with occasional AC or plumbing issues and musty odors. Expect an ultra-convenient base for games and nightlife, with standout views and service but trade-offs in amenities and maintenance.

The three out of the four elevators on the property, were all down due to maintenance issues. Can you imagine how difficult it is to come and go as you please when you’re waiting for 25 minutes minimum for ONE elevator to make its way through 22 floors. There were no signs of any elevator technicians on site attempting to resolve the issue which was very frustrating. It is extremely disappointing especially for the amount you’re paying to stay there. The valet services also seemed to be very unorganized and it was evident that they completely forgot we were waiting for our vehicle on our check-out date and had us waiting outside for 30-35 minutes. I will not be recommending this hotel to anyone.

The Marriott Gaslamp Quarter was perfect - Right in the heart of the historic downtown district and just far away from the night scene that it is quiet at night. It’s in a very walkable area and has a gorgeous rooftop bar, as well!

Friendly staff, nice vibe, great roof top and a big gym open 24x7. Just 2 buts, elevator were not very efficient and I didnt appreciate having a 30dollar scotch in a plastic glass. But again, great place overall, highly recommended, great value for money.

The Hotel is walking distance to Petco Stadium, the convention center, restaurants, and nightclubs. Good for nightlife activities plus a short drive to Little Italy and the marina. SeaWorld is a 20 min drive. Only downside is no pool. Overall, would stay again.

Place didn’t have a pool or a spa. Kind of a bummer being a Marriott not having these for our family. Kids were bummed. I asked at the front could help us out and find a place to use your pool but no help. Ended up using resort pass.

The staff was friendly, the location obviously amazing. However our room was extremely disappointing. I don’t know if it only our room (910) or the 9th floor or the hotel in general. The floor was slanted, and not subtly. We had to sleep with our heads at the foot of the bed, it was that slanted. The sliding door to the bathroom did not latch closed, it would slide open because of the slope of the room. The room also had a strong smell of mildew/mold. Because of the experience of the room, we will not be staying at this particular hotel again.

The property is outdated. Upon checking in the front desk clerk confirmed the room that I booked which was two queen double beds. She later asked if it’s okay to change my room to a king size bed which will cost more but will give me the same rate. Now that was the first lie. King size beds are much cheaper than two queen size beds. Upon checking into the so called upgrade I notice the air conditioning system struggling to work. The temperature was set at 66 but the temperature of the room kept going up. I called the front desk and explained the situation. The front desk agent stated that the maintenance team already left for today and will be back in the morning. I politely told the young lady that I cannot sleep in a hot hotel room. I was quickly upgraded to a junior suite and met by two employees that kindly assisted me to my new hotel room. The junior suite smelled like pets were using the floor as a bathroom. I had to spray so much Lysol it was ridiculous. You can even see the stains in the carpet which was gross. I didn’t feel like calling down again so I kept the room. I made it my business to leave everyday far away from the hotel and area. The hotel rooms are outdated. But I would give a kudos to valet Jacob. He was very helpful and willing to help with any questions you may have.

The room I stayed in was great until we used the sink or shower. I was in town for one night for a wedding. I got early check in which was great because the wedding started early. We used the room to get changed and didn’t return until later that night. The shower was draining very slow. So during the shower you would be standing in a pool of dirty water. It probably took 15-30 minutes for the water to drain. The sink drain flowed better, but once the water was off the drain made a bubbling/glugging sound for a few minutes. During the night the drain from the shower would make an obnoxious bubbling sound off and on all night into the morning. The noise made it difficult to sleep. We didn’t want to change rooms in the middle of the night so we just dealt with it. When I checked out at the front desk. I expressed the issues with the room and the staff just said “Thanks for letting us know.” I expected a little more empathy from the staff of a 4 star hotel.

The rooms need to be updated. The TV in the room was too small. There is no option to self park, the only option is to valet park and the cost for that is 65 dollars a night. Other than that this hotel is in the perfect spot. It is located in downtown so you are able to walk everywhere no need to drive.

Had a great stay! Love the location and the views of ocean and Petco Park were amazing. Restaurants had great food and drinks. Would definitely return back to this facility. My only issues would be that the positioning of the TVs are very low which makes for an awkward viewing while laying in bed. Our bed seemed a little sunk in the middle and our TV remote (volume and channel down button) did not seem to be working.

The mattress was a little old and could be replaced. It's also odd that the hotel room didn't come with a mini fridge, safe, or USB charging ports. Ensure you have a sufficient number of charging adapters for all your devices.

Our stay was convenient and service was quick and friendly. Elevators were slow but was acknowledged through posted signs. My biggest concern was that someone opened our door at 9 am. Thankfully we had the security lock in place but is still concerning. We did not have the privacy sign on the door but even if it was house keeping, they should have knocked prior to opening the door.

My stay would have been better had they told us upfront that they have over committed for the room we were booked for, and asked if they could downgrade our room but make up for it. Instead they waited till we were already in our room to tell us they have no other rooms for us to be. I still was upset because we never wanted the breakfast. They gave a 60$ discount to the weekend but the view was the entire reason we picked this hotel and with us getting the view of their air conditioning system with loud noise and smelled like dirty water, just felt even more of a disappointment. We picked a view of the water because we knew we would be arriving within an hour of the fireworks and if the room was a good enough we’d be able to stay in. Also had to go back to the hotel because they never actually gave back the 60$ we had to tell them. My stay would have been much better if they had informed us upfront that they had overbooked the room we had reserved. They could have offered to downgrade our room and compensate us for the inconvenience. Instead, they waited until we were already in our room to inform us that they had no other available rooms. I was still upset because we had never intended to have breakfast. They did offer a 60-dollar discount for the weekend, but the view was the primary reason we chose this hotel. With the view of their air conditioning system, which was noisy and smelled like dirty water, it felt even more of a slap in the face.

This accommodation offers a great location for those attending baseball games, visiting the convention center, or enjoying the vibrant nightlife in downtown San Diego. Its proximity to various attractions makes it a convenient choice for travelers. However, it's important to note that the room lacked a safe and a refrigerator, which may be a drawback for some guests. Overall, while the stay was practical, it didn't offer any standout features.

Overall, great experience. Closest to PetCo for sure. Everything you’d expect from a Marriott property. Only issue was room service. I chose this property because of the room service option and I attempted to order twice and twice was not able to get it. Internal phone system zero’d out to room service. The front desk connected me with the same result and no solution when I went to the front desk.
