Served the purpose of being close to the event venue I was attending, and lay my head for the night

The location was ideal for the eventI was attending. The Rock and Roll memorabilia in the lobby was really cool

There was a private event taking place on ground level and there was not a separate entrance for room guests to enter thru which was a hassle. Having to deal with the club line to get back in to my room was annoying. Beds are way too soft, no back support at all.

I think we were too old for this hotel.....

We enjoyed the hotel’s decor, both in our room and in the common areas. The location was convenient for attending a game, and there were plenty of restaurants nearby.

Unfortunately, we weren't there for a game and the blinding lights and noise from the ball field were troublesome. If staying here during baseball season, I'd make sure to get a room on the opposite side of the hotel. The front desk clerk recited (very quickly) a list of things when we checked in. We had no idea what she said. The parking was VERY expensive.

Weekday at the Hard Rock

We liked room service, the bed (except the corners) and the view.

The bed corners, we kept hitting our legs and feet.

Very angry and disappointed

The valet service was atrocious. We checked in Tuesday at 4:30pm and were told we could keep our car in valet the next day while we attend the Padre game. There would only be a charge for one night. After the game at 3:30 pm it took the valet 45 minutes to get our car. We were the only couple waiting. All other customers were having no problem. They kept telling me my car was “stuck in traffic because of the game”. Complete BS. When I went in to discuss with the manager and wanted a refund I was told sorry- your valet was for the game not a hotel stay even though we did spend the night before at $450!!!!! She was rude and didn’t care it took that long for my car. Valet is $65

Location is great for Petco and the Gaslamp but the overall experience is simply not worth the price

Location is excellent for attending a Padre game at Petco. Breakfast options good.

The San Diego Hard Rock seems to have emulated Las Vegas a bit too much. Expensive parking (expected) and various fees and charges that did not add value to the experience. Weird furniture, really strange room layout with glass doors on the shower and toilet areas that open into the room. Bed platform extended beyond mattress dimensions that was a real hazard to shins and toes when negotiating it in the dark and sharp corners on about everything. Overpriced minibar (not unusual) and adult toys offering contributed to whatever vibe they are chasing. Not coming back.

5.0 / 10.0

It was nice but not for 570$ for 1 night.

Convenient to Petco Park

I got barely any sleep. All I heard all night were people at the parking garage revving their cars, blaring music, trash cans and dumpsters on the street and people screaming and partying until 4 am which made getting up and out by 11 miserable.

Great location to Petco Park and Gaslamp District. Park yourself around the corner in garage, it’s cheaper

Location was very convenient for an Angels game (4 min walk) and great location to at the end of the Gaslamp District. We just parked the. And and walk everywhere. (15-18 min) walk to Seaport Village.

Check-In staff was not as professional and gave misinformation about the parking and that the elevators needing your room card to be scanned in the elevator in order to use the elevator. Ask the valet staff about the self park parking garage around the corner is much cheaper.

Great Hard Rick stay

Location is great for the sea front and city. The staff were so friendly.

Strange arrangement for breakfast with a restaurant accessible from the hotel and the street.

5.0 / 10.0

Great location, but lacking a bit for this Rocker!

The location for a concert at the Rady Shell can't be beat. You just walk up 100 steps over the convention center and down 105 steps and you're almost there. There are many places to eat nearby. Baja Rick's Cantina just across the street of the front entrance was excellent. Meze Greek Fusion around the corner is also superb.

I normally don't like to complain, but there were a few items that needed help. Despite only one light on the bathroom mirror working, the general lighting in the bathroom was a bit darker in the shower. The full heavy glass door on the shower was a bit sagging out of from top hinge, causing it to not shut completely. The blowdryer cord was only about 3 feet when extended, so it was difficult to dry hair while leaning over the sink -- the outlet was surprisingly towards the back of the counter down lower. The poor bed platform was larger than the mattress, and although the corners were padded in the same dark brown finish, we would always give a shout every time the corner caught our foot. I'm not sure if it was designed for a larger mattress or if the general plan was to take out as many ankles as possible. Despite the well sound insulated double paned windows and nice darkout curtains, the incessant ringing of the Gaslamp Quarter Tram railroad crossing every 15 minutes (and another 15 minutes for the opposite direction tram) kept ringing in my head all night. I don't know if they run larger intervals at night, but all I heard all night was the bing bing bing of the railroad crossing.

Always my go to hotel to stay while in San Diego

Ive stayed here on multiple occasions but this last trip was with my family for a padres game. Location is perfect, in the heart of gaslamp, walking distance to sea port village, and the padres stadium entrance is right around the corner. Rooms are good size, all the staff is super friendly, & bonus theres a restaurant and Starbucks downstairs.

Fantastic location for exploring downtown San Diego. Ideal for baseball fans.

Amazing location right in Gaslamp quarter and less than 5 minutes walk to Petco Park. Woodstock suite was spacious and had a nice balcony area. Good value for money.

Disinterested staff, some areas in need of some light renovation. The pool party taking place from 12-5 on Saturday afternoon was irritating and the general Hard Rock style of rock ‘n’ roll history mixed with uber corporate design is a bit strange.

Can’t wait for my next stay.

Staff was extremely accommodating. Brook and Zoe went above and beyond to make sure our stay was fantastic. Also the gentlemen working at front desk, in the evenings on Tuesday 4/29- Friday 5/2, i didn’t catch his name, but all 3 of them were exceptional.

I didn’t like that my stay wasn’t longer.

4.0 / 10.0

I will not come back or recommend

Location was ok. Liked that they had Nobu and Starbucks downstairs.

I didn’t like that this hotel was supposed to be kid/ family friendly but no tv streaming services. Couldn’t watch anything with my son while we rest. The club/ bar there was boring. Nothing was happening in the hotel on a weekend. Outlets in the restroom didn’t work.

At the last minute

Decided on a whim to celebrate a birthday in San Diego, in the airport lounge on the way down there, especially the Gaslamp Quarter. We booked an hour before we arrived. Our stay was fun! Our room overlooked the pool area where the party was happening. The hotel is within walking distance to everything in the Gaslamp, and transportation to anywhere in the San Diego area from there is 15-30 minutes away. The hotel vibe is definitely fun!

10.0 / 10.0

Amazing stay!

It was an amazing stay. The hotel and the room was spotless clean. Very friendly staff. The hotel is in the buzzy Gaslamp Quarter. The cherry on the top was the opportunity to borrow guitars. We only wished we stayed longer!

nothing to complain...

Decent room, nice staff

Close to Petco. Nice view. Secure, safe. Nice staff.

Didn't like paying extra $35.00 for early check in. . $60.00 to park is ridiculous! Bathroom - terrible lighting, no fan. Pillows looked like they would be nice but they were not comfortable at all. Flat! Bed wasn't great, just ok

Extremely uncomfortable bed/pillows, dirty/old carpeting, nickel and dimed for everything.

Great experience for a first time traveling solo!

It was so close to everything that I dropped my car off with the valet on arrival and didn’t take it out until check out! There were plenty of things to do also.

The mini bar in the room was really expensive.
