"Average stay, great location"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed November 20, 2024 NEW
It seems to be a remodel of an old apartment building so the rooms are very small and quite squished together, so if you're expecting a lot of room, you'll be mistaken. During my stay, there was a broken outlet in the bathroom, which made it very inconvenient to use the hair dryer. Other than this, it had everything you need for a typical stay. The location is its biggest selling point, being about a 10-12 minute walk to the convention center. It's located at a major street corner so finding a bus to go anywhere further than Little Italy, Seaport Village, or the convention center is easy. Very close to Gaslamp quarter but not close enough to hear a lot of noise at night.

The Sofia is a beautiful old hotel that has been updated, but still retains it's historical aspects. The hotel is close to the San Diego Convention Center and the Gaslamp. Rooms, while small, are very nicely finished out with and even include a steamer for your clothes, coffee maker, two bottles of wine reasonably priced for purchase, glass wine glasses and coffee cups, and oversized bath towels. The front desk will give you a complimentary metal bottle of water and has filling stations on the 3rd, 5th and 7th floors. The only downside of the property is that there is not currently a restaurant or bar in the hotel. However, they are currently renovating the space for the restaurant and bar and they will open shortly. There are plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

"Painful bug bites and crap internet."
TripAdvisor user rating 2.0 out of 5
Reviewed October 29, 2024 NEW
Painful bug bites during my stay. Seven bites all over me caused massive swelling and infection points forcing me to go on an antibiotic. The Wi-Fi doesn't reach all rooms and is slow as hell in the lobby. Unplugging the PC's ethernet showed pre-broadband speed tests, just as slow as the Wi-Fi. The shower was pretty tight and small. For someone that is 6'5 with wide shoulders I was shoulder to shoulder against the glass and wall in the shower.

I needed a place close to the convention center that would t break the budget. So glad I found this place. Well-appointed modern lux hotel set inside a historical landmark. Great service and attention to detail. This is going to be my go-to place for all my future San Diego trips in the gaslamp district.
