Top Rancho San Diego Hotel Reviews

Days Inn by Wyndham San Diego Hotel Circle

10/10 Excellent

"Good hotel!"

Handlery Hotel

8/10 Good

"I stayed here for Halloween weekend (Friday-Sunday) the property was very well maintained. Amazing pool, the master suites are very spacious. Every morning the maintenance lady was kind enough to restock our towels even if we didn’t use them. Food was okay, nothing special. Reasonable prices. Good location not too far from downtown! The parking lot was secured at all times. Overall I recommend this hotel if you don’t want to deal with downtown noise or traffic!"

Bay Club Hotel & Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Great view of the marina. Parking was an issue as I have a large truck and the underground parking was tough to fit into, but we made do. Staff was great. Across the street is a small boat launch and it was fun to go over at night and see the large birds and the seals try to convince fisherman to offer up some bait. Pillows were small and way too giving. Shower had fantastic water pressure. Will stay here again."
