AC Hotel by Marriott San Diego Downtown Gaslamp Quarter

Good place

Pros to the hotel are location to Petco Park. Roof top bar and pool were good. The staff working the roof top bar were friendly and attentive.

In the heart of the night life. Great place to stay if you want to experience the bars and downtown vibe. Once in my room I could not hear any of the night life noise or hustle and bustle. Very close to Petco Park (ballpark) - walkable. Very close to the convention center - walkable. I would stay there again.

Great place to stay, right on 5th Ave…heart of Gaslamp District. Rooms are very nice, comfortable and well appointed. Have stayed here numerous times! Definitely recommend this place when visiting the area!

The staff and bartender Dane and cocktail waitress were wonderful on the roof top

Tiny room but location is good

Look no further. This is the place to book. This hotel is walking distance to restaurants, clubs, bars. It's clean and staff was so helpful and pleasant. This trip was a girls trip so safety was important. We felt safe in and around the hotel. Would definitely recommend and will stay here again.

Very nice

Great hotel with central location within walking distance of restaurants and entertainment. Easy transportation to Petco park, docks, museums of culture and a House of Palestine. Hotel has a bar, outdoor seating and rooftop city view.

Cool location, really friendly staff. Good spot for walking around.

💯

This is our favorite hotel to stay at. It is a fun location with lots to do in walking distance. The hotel is extremely clean and staff is friendly and helpful. The only downside is the room was very small, but it’s not too bad.

Rooftop Bar, Location Noise! Rooftop needs to stay open later. I would definitely ask for a room in the back next time.

Great service.

Exceptional

I wasn’t aware this hotel didn’t provide parking, very inconvenient. And the valet service was $68 a day! I’ll never stay here again.

Exceptional

Very small but beautiful room. Comfortable bed and well-lit bathroom (one pet-peeve of mine is when I can't do my makeup in the bathroom due to low lighting.) Great view off very small balcony (7th floor - not all floors had balconies). The air could not keep up and it was only May, so we were a little warm going to bed. The street below is very loud (even on a Thursday night), they did have a nose machine which helped a lot!

The staff was very kind and helpful the entire stay & the hotel itself is very clean and new (minimal carpeted floors which I always look for). The only thing I could see being an issue for some travelers is it is in the heart of the Gaslamp district, so it can get a little loud during the weekends until last call. It was perfect for my little sister and I but is definitely something to consider when booking a place in Downtown SD :) That being said the location was fantastic! Close to so many good restaurants and bars & pretty close to the Padres stadium too!

AC Hotels consistently provide good value and the Gaslamp hotel lived up to expectations. The room was quiet and comfortable. Valet parking was efficient. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of PetCo Park and other spots in the Gaslamp District. As with other California cities, the homeless problem in San Diego seems to be getting worse and makes walking around feel unsafe, as vagrancy is tolerated, if not incentivized. It was the only negative part of staying here, and not the hotel's fault -- rather, failed state and local leadership. San Diego's downtown otherwise has a lot of potential. I remember it being much cleaner when I was here years ago.
