Top Japanese Friendship Garden Hotel Reviews

Hilton San Diego Bayfront

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfy bed with stunning view All around . How ever there was food left from other guest in between the couches"

Wyndham San Diego Bayside

8/10 Good

"everything was fine in the beginning , we got picked up at the airport by their shuttle and the driver was very nice and helpful. but when we checked out on monday and waited for the shuttle to take us back to the airport the driver told us it was only for the airline stuff and was very dismissive and rude about it. he didn’t even try to help us out, if it was only airline stuff then why did they pick us up when we first arrived? overall that could’ve been handled better."

Ash&9th

8/10 Good

"We booked this hotel for a one night stay because we had a late flight arriving. It was on the more affordable side compared to other hotels in the area, though it wasn’t the cheapest. The room matched the photos, and everything was decent overall. The building is older, which shows in some areas, but it was acceptable for a short stay. One highlight was the staff. The guy who checked us in was very friendly and gave us a great recommendation for a late night meal. He suggested Tacos El Gordo, which was about a half mile walk away and definitely worth it. Overall, we got what we paid for. The hotel wasn’t bad, but it just wasn’t the right fit for our preferences. While our stay was fine for one night, we wouldn’t choose to stay here again."

Holiday Inn Express San Diego Downtown by IHG

8/10 Good

"We really enjoyed breakfast each morning, Austin at the front desk was amazing and always friendly and helpful. Our only issue was the air conditioner in our room broke and we were without air our last night (the socket caught fire and melted the plug). The hotel was full so they were not able to move us to another room. It was helpful to have the laundry on site so we didn’t fly home with bags of dirty clothes."
