  More than just a budget hotel I reached San Diego with a very tight budget this summer. I chose California Suites Hotel for accommodation as it suited my budget. But, I am glad to admit that it is more than just a budget hotel and offers you more than what you call value for the money. Located in absolute serenity amid lush gardens, tropical plants and flowers, its very close to San Diego beaches, zoo, Sea World, Belmont Park, Gaslamp Quarter etc. It not only makes San Diego lodging affordable but also cuts down your commuting costs thanks to its central location. Though the room appeared outdated, cleanliness and room service made up for it....   Read More

  Pocket-friendly hotel I don't enjoy vacations where I waste more time on commuting than on sightseeing. So this time on my San Diego vacation, I carefully researched and selected California Suites Hotel. The best part of this hotel is its location only for which I chose to stay here. Beaches and other major tourist areas were nearby. San Diego International Airport is also very near from the hotel. So no matter, wherever I went, commuting to any destination took very less time. But before you rush to book your stay here keep in mind that there is nothing fancy about this hotel. It is very basic and happily suited my budget. I was not very impressed with the services and didn't like the complementary breakfast that was provided to me. All in all, this hotel is good only for its location and affordable rates. If you are looking for a great price, then this is it!...   Read More

  Good central location San Diego is a lively city which I enjoy thoroughly on every visit. Usually I end up spending most of my time on the beaches. But about two weeks back when I went to SD, I took some time off for visiting Balboa Park. I was also lucky to listen in to some great music at Mainly Mozart at Old Town, and roamed the streets of Old Town. Mercifully, my hotel – California Suites Hotel is centrally located so most of these San Diego sites are nearby. I didn't face any difficulty in commuting and the services at this hotel are great value for the prices they charge. Plus, I got some good discounts on my stay so I saved some more. Am wondering why I didn't see more of San Diego on my earlier visits....   Read More

  Hotel with best central location Just back from San Diego after a week long stay there. This time I stayed at the California Suites Hotel. I liked this budget hotel for one particular reason- its location. During my stay there, San Diego Restaurant Week was going on. And from my hotel, most of the participating restaurants in different locations were nearby. One day I dined in Gaslamp Quarter, the other day in colorful Old Town, some day in beautiful La Jolla. Not even for once, did I face any difficulty in commuting. Due to its central location, I saved good deal of money on commuting. Even the San Diego International Airport was hardly 15 minutes away. Besides the hotel services were pretty satisfactory and the hotel rates were quite affordable....   Read More
