Pretty, old hotel in prime Gaslamp quarter

Simple, but historic hotel in prime location. Room was pretty, but somewhat poorly insulated from neighbors. Felt cozy with a nice view into the courtyard.

Noise insulation as expected from an older building.

This was a great stay and for me it was a short walk to the convention center !

This is a classical old hotel. My room was very large and comfortable. It was clean and with friendly staff. The location was great in the gas lamp district.

I have no complaints.

Great place in San Diego

Upon my arrival I was greeted by Victor, professional an friendly, great asset to your staff, the location was great, was on town for a concert, I was able to walk to it. Love the style of the hotel an the history an artifacts within.

Great location!

I liked the location and the history of it.

I don’t feel like anyone went out of their way to make it a great stay. It was a place to sleep.

10.0 / 10.0

Unique property, perfect to unwind and yet right next to the revelry! Recommend!

The Horton was a splurge stay and I felt it well worth the money. I stayed in the interior King room with balcony. It’s old fashioned charming, definitely not a big chain experience. I loved every aspect—the comfy bed, the armoire, desk, and the Juliet balcony. I loved falling asleep while listening to the Friday night Gaslamp District revelry. Tea and book reading on the balcony. The stay for me was a perfect way to relax and recharge.

I thought it was great! I missed using my voucher at the bar (the bar was too crowded and I didn’t need the drink that much), but that was my own decision.

Unique place but lacking conveniences

The staff were all super friendly and helpful, especially Robert, who helped us bring our bags to our room upon arriving and Todd, the valet who reminisced about being from Washington state, where we are from. We enjoyed the uniqueness and history of the hotel, with its antique artifacts, photos and furniture. We had fun walking the layout and searching for the haunted room 309. It was fun having a balcony to hang out on watching the nightlife from overhead and to start the day on in the morning. It offers a unique perspective on the city. Check-in and check-out were fast and easy. The valet let us keep our car there until 1 pm even though checkout is at 11 am and we were able to keep our bags in the office while we went to breakfast for added security. (The Tiger Cafe was delicious!) The free drink vouchers are a nice touch but neither my husband or I drink so some other alternative might be nice to offer. We did enjoy the fireplace at night which gave us some nice warmth as it got a bit chilly. We also appreciated being able to stream shows on Netflix and Amazon on the TV.

When I booked the room, I didn't think about the fact that it was a Friday night and the city would be alive with bar-hoppers. There were loud crowds and exceptionally loud-mufflered cars and motorcycles revving their engines until shortly after the bars closed. I was finally able to get to sleep around 2:30 am. The bed was fine but not overly comfortable and the pillows are a bit too squishy. There was no microwave or refrigerator. There is a public microwave down in the little food/gift shop if needed. We used the ice bucket to keep some creamer cold that we had brought for coffee. The bathroom is small and there is no vanity/counter space for toiletries. The shower was pretty good. The carpets were stained, there was a burned out lightbulb in our bathroom, there were charging outlets on only one side of the bed. Although the age of the hotel adds to its charm, it also shows it's age in some not-so-convenient shortcomings.

Although the hotel looks very interesting and attractive, the bed is the most important thing in the hotel and that is w

The staff was very generous and nice. The hotel has a very beautiful old-fashioned atmosphere. The room is beautiful and clean.

The bed was really bad and not suitable for sleeping. We sank into the mattress which really affected our sleep.

The attached whiskey bar was a little strange. We sat at a table for approx 5 mins and no staff member asked us for our order so we left.

All fine - nice hotel

I thought this hotel was ok overall but probably more 3 star than 4. Everything was fine but hotel felt a bit tired. Bathroom in my room was very basic and not really 4 star level. Aircon worked well and wifi was ok but had to reconnect a few times. Staff were very nice and friendly. Nice bar off the lobby but service hit and miss though not a major issue for us and didn't stop us going in there. Valet parking was very good but expensive.

Mostly all ok - valet parking expensive at $60 dollars a night.

Friendliest place I've stayed!

The staff was amazing. Everyone from the Front desk, valet, security and cleaning staff were warm and friendly. I was greeted with a warm smile and each person was genuinely helpful. I needed to leave early before the valet got there and the front desk made arrangements for my car to be waiting at 0430.

Everything was great but I would say that they should upgrade the fixtures in the bathroom. They worked find but they were corroded and the handle felt like it was about to come off. The room I had was a little small but had everything I needed and was very comfortable.

10.0 / 10.0

Boutique hotels are worth the stay! Learning about the hotel’s history and seeing it in person was neat.

This hotel is a gem! Beautiful and historic.

The only thing we would have liked is breakfast at the hotel, but many options were within walking distance.

This place is gross and I would never stay here again.

There was nothing I liked about this hotel. I would never stay here again.

The Horton grand Hotel needs to work on their customer service. The. Worker at front desk was extremely condescending and rude. Every time we walked into the room, there was a stench of animal feces by the front door. There was quite a bit of trash under the bed. There were two press on nails stuck to the phone cord. You could hear where the people on the floor above you were walking. The bathroom door would stick so bad that you would have to give it a good shoulder push to get out. This place is gross. I would never stay here again.

9.0 / 10.0

A standout in the downtown/Gaslamp area

Lots to like here! We enjoyed staying in a hotel that reflects and preserves the history and character of a city, rather than the "upscale could be anywhere" style of other hotels. (Also, locally owned, keeping more of our dollars in the local economy.) Everything was very comfortable and decently equipped. The ELEVATOR is a treat! The hotel has cleverly set up little museum vignettes you can see through glass on each floor. The staff were relaxed yet attentive, and my comments about our iffy toiletries dispenser were met very positively, with sincere thanks for my feedback. The location is great, too: some of the other nice hotels have rather sketchy or noisy activity at street level, but the Horton Grand's block is calm --yet an easy walk to a couple excellent places for coffee, breakfast (Cafe 222!), eats (Taqueria Los Chuchys!), the waterfront, trolley, etc.

It'd be nice if the $24/room Resort Fee were mentioned up front, to avoid a sense of surprise or nickel-and-diming guests. The glassed-in lobby is begging to be turned into the conservatory it clearly was designed to be; adding lots of lush, exotic plants would really make that space special! As it stands, it's a bit pointless, especially next to the really lovely open-air brick courtyard.

6.0 / 10.0

ok for a business trip.

The attached restaurant was nice! Good Food! And the two free drinks was also nice. Good location.

The room was ok...rather dated. I expected better amenities, nice towels, a better shower, etc., No glasses to drink out of, no microwave as indicated, things like that. Also, they didn't use AC in the main corridors...it was hot on the top floor.

Lovely central property

Superb location. Beautiful building and lovely staff. We opted for a king size with balcony and room size was ideal. Beds and pillows super comfortable. Would absolutely stay again!

Whilst not a deal breaker the toilet is about a foot away from the wall so you lose a lot of space in the bathroom. Aircon too noisy to have on but to be honest the fan kept the room cool enough (it was June though so not sure if this would be enough mid summer).

8.0 / 10.0

Overall hotel is beautiful, clean and well taken care of.

Staff not very helpful. Lady at front desk seemed to be preoccupied on her phone. She was pleasant,. We received a free drink at the bar. Our last night at the hotel we went down to the bar at 10:15. The bartender who was very rude said. "Nope we are closed, we closed at 10." My husband said, "oh can you make an exception, it's our last night here.? Bartender replied "No can't do that". Thought he was very rude and abrupt with us. Considering we were guests and not someone who stopped in off the street. We entered the bar from the stairs.

Charming hotel in a great location

The hotel is situated centrally, walking distance from many tourist attractions. The convention center is a 10 minute walk away, Petco Park Stadium as well; most of the restaurants and main Gaslamp attractions are also 5-10min walking. The hotel had interesting decor in an old style which was very charming.

the shower had really bad pressure and the bathroom was not really thoroughly cleaned upon check in - there were hairs/shavings on the sink

Would come again! GREAT BEDS

The property was right in the middle of night life. There’s a parking structure just down the street which is very convenient if you don’t chose valet. We LOVED how lively the building was and the beds!! The beds and pillows were the best my boyfriend and I have ever slept!! Definitely a major plus.

I know the property is an antique. I was upset by the two hole punctures in my room. There was a minor hole in the wall in the shower and on the bathroom wall.

Beautiful building

A beautiful building in a fantastic location - quiet, but very close to restaurants and cafes. Free drinks vouchers for the bar were a nice touch

No breakfast, but there is a small kiosk next to reception selling ultra-processed packaged snacks. The room only had disposable coffee cups and plastic glasses, all wrapped in extra plastic. I guess this is standard for the US but, to this Brit, these aspects were cheap and tacky, compared to the standard and cost of the hotel.

8.0 / 10.0

Helpful staff, great location and comfy beds.

Location was great. Could walk to the harbor and all over the Gas Lamp area. Staff was very helpful. Bed was comfy.

Room was dark and the lighting was either too dim or too bright. Nice furniture but no bedside lamps, just very dim hanging bulbs. More hooks in the room would have been nice.
