A Beautiful Treasure
The lobby isn’t so beautiful and the rooms are quaint and really comfortable with a touch of elegance. I wouldn’t definitely recommend the hotel and absolutely stay there again on our next visit to San Diego!

The rooms are a funky mix of the modern and old wood antiques - we loved it. Nice and clean, although could have done with an extra blanket.
The bathroom was SUPER small. :) But we survived. There was a room service menu in the room but when we called they said they weren't offering room service - a little odd but we found a great place nearby.

About
Overview
The Horton Grand Hotel is located in the heart of the downtown San Diego area, and it is one of the most famous hotels in the city thanks to the rich history it offers. This hotel was originally built in the late 1800s, but it was torn down in the 1970s, with the bricks being numbered when were removed. It was rebuilt in 1986.
The rooms at the hotel include a range of amenities and features, including air conditioning and free wireless Internet. There are connecting in adjoining rooms available. The rooms have blackout drapes, and the rooms are individually decorated. Rooms also have HD TVs with premium channels, along with a coffee/tea maker, iron and ironing board, private bathroom, desk, and hair dryer. Guests will even find fireplaces in the rooms.

Reviews about The Horton Grand Hotel
“Liked the location, room size, bathroom, bed was comfortable.”
“Staying at The Horton Grand was a true pleasure. The nostalgia of the hotel, warm, friendly accommodating staff and comfy, spacious rooms and beds made it a truly delightful stay. Also, it's perfectly located within an easy walking distance to all cafes/shops. We will definitely be going back! Keep in mind that parking in the Gaslamp Quarter is always difficult no matter where you stay, so be prepared to use their Valet service or secure a local parking garage. Street parking is available but very limited.”
“The staff were great! It was comfortable and clean. I would return.”
“I really loved everything. The staff was friendly and the hotel was very clean and elegant.”
“It was ok”
