“We were in San Diego for a conference and research work at the San Diego State University, and even from the tight schedule I managed to take out some time to see some of the city sights with my husband. Thanks to the really convenient location of the California Suites Hotel where we stayed for the 5 day tour, we managed to pack in a lot of activities despite loads of work. The major tourist spots were near the hotel and that made it easy for us to go around. As far as the hotel room is concerned it had all the necessary amenities required for a comfortable stay. Great service and that too at a pocket friendly price. Cool!”

“The hotel is good for staying in San Diego. The rooms are clean and have everything one needs for a comfortable stay. The pool is great. Besides, it's close to the airport, all the great tourist spots and the beaches. And need I mention the superb breakfast! All said, a great place to stay without spending a fortune.”

“The services were excellent. My room was clean and comfortable, the view from the window was fantastic, the free breakfast was great and the large swimming pool was a nice surprise. I would say it is one of the best budget hotels that I have ever stayed in.”

“We stayed at California Suites Hotel for two weeks on our San Diego vacation. We chose this hotel for its location. Its right in the heart of San Diego from where commuting was easy and convenient. I would describe the hotel as comfortable, not luxurious but with a home like ambiance. Its pleasant and quiet. The staff was welcoming, the food great, and the warm swimming pool was a nice place for a refreshing swim. Good value for money, must say.”

“I was looking for a quiet place in San Diego where I could stay in peace and which is nearby to Old Town. Thankfully, California Suites Hotel suited me fine. It is a quaint hotel with beautiful flowers and plants all around its lush gardens. The setting is peaceful, a pleasant change from the busy humdrum of Rosewell city. Probably next year by January I might come again to roam in the streets of Old Town and stay in this beautiful hotel.”

“This was the first time, me and my sister had gone to San Diego. The best thing about the hotel was it's amicable and friendly staff. Sea World and Zoo were the only places that we planned to visit but on the suggestion of the staff, we also visited Old Town, La Jolla etc. and had a gala time there. As the hotel was located near most of the major landmarks, we found it quite easy to commute on our own. We are planning to come over again to usher in the New Year in San Diego. And California Suites Hotel would definitely be our first stay choice to stay. The hotel is quite safe and secure for girls and families.”

“California Suites Hotel was a pleasant experience. I enjoyed myself thoroughly during my four day stay at the hotel. Apart from the cool, relaxing ambience, the food was a high point. The breakfast came free and that was an added benefit.”

“It was a home like atmosphere in the California Suites Hotel. Since my son Rex is 8 year old, his stay in the hotel was free of cost. After touring San Diego all day, Rex was happy playing around in the warm swimming pool. That kept him busy and away from pranks! The staff members are really good with the kids. I would recommend this hotel to any family looking for a home like environment.”

“Fantastic is the right word to describe my stay at the California Suites Hotel. The complementary breakfast provided was healthy and delicious. I am a bit of a fitness freak and I loved the juices and the fresh fruits they served in the morning. No oily stuff, mercifully! And a swim in the large warm pool was always refreshing. Overall a fine experience and that too at budget prices. So I am planning to come over here again around Christmas.”

“I decided to stay at California Suites hotel as my sister and her husband recommended it. They had stayed here during their vacation in San Diego last year. I was pleasantly surprised with the beautiful location of the hotel and the fast services it provided. My room was nicely sized, clean and very tastefully decorated. It had a beautiful view. The staff was always prompt in service. I will recommend this hotel to anyone looking for first class facilities at an affordable price range.”

“Due to its convenient location, right in the heart of San Diego, I must say that staying at California Suites Hotel added to my memorable experience in the city. All the key attractions such as Zoo, Sea World, superb beaches etc. were a few minutes away from the hotel. Must say the overall set-up of the hotel was simply above my expectations, considering its budget prices.”

“I stayed at California Suites Hotel last month for a week with my wife, Natalie and our twins Mark and Tom. The rooms were spotless and the staff is really good with kids! The twins can be quite a pest at times but with the pool around, they were too busy to make any trouble! After touring the whole day, the pool was a great place to unwind. I am really looking forward to our second visit to San Diego and this wonderful hotel.”

“The best thing about California Suites Hotel is its impeccable service. A budget hotel often lacks good service. But here the rooms were clean and comfortable, the free breakfast scrumptious and the large soothing swimming pool a real boon. I would like to stay here again.”

“This is the second time I stayed at California Suites Hotel. And I must say that the services and the hotel staff are as good as it was six months back, when I first visited here. The specialty of this hotel lies in its fast services and great maintenance. Rooms don't have that wow factor but they are clean and well-furnished. Free breakfast is served in plenty and a swim in the large warm pool is just what you need to wash away all your lethargy. If you are on a budget vacation and looking for a good friendly hotel, then this is a fine place to stay.”

“I must admit that I was surprised at the prompt services and the hospitality of California Suites Hotel. They are pretty high standard considering that it is a budget hotel. It's verdant setting and lovely flowers make an instant impression as you arrive. The rooms are clean, with all the accessories you may need and the beds are comfortable. I enjoyed the huge complementary breakfast especially the hot chocolate they served. I am planning to visit San Diego this winter with my family and would definitely stay at this place. If you want to have good time at a reasonable price, then this hotel is good.”
