聖地牙哥煤氣燈區Palihotel飯店 (Palihotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter)

星級評鑑以住宿資訊（飯店提供之服務與設施等）綜合評等為基準，僅供參考

WiFi was a bit spotty for business calls. The hotel has only two elevators, with one out of service (they acknowledge upfront that the elevators are slow).

Clean room, helpful staff.

Nice hotel. Elevator is very slow. Could not sleep due to AC noise.

elevator was a disaster

The upgraded "studio" room was terrible. I was incredibly surprised by the good reviews of this room and the hotel in general. They are going for a retro aesthetic at the cost of basic functionality. The elevator is odd and requires you to pull open a grate to get in. I get it, it's cool, but it just isn't functional to try and get yourself and bags in the door. The room layout was odd and had very, very limited windows. Kind of a cave. The night auditor had to search around to try and find an iron for me, but couldn't find an ironing board. Everytime another door in the hallway closed, it would make mine rattle. My knees were in my chest sitting on the toilet. Dingy old bathtub with grimy ring around the bottom... And it didn't drain. Awesome. All the coffee pods were decaf. Some real basic problems here. They did offer me a 30% refund. Still would've been 100% better staying at a Best Western. Avoid this kitschy disaster.

I want to preface this with the fact that this is a historical building. Only one of the elevators is currently working (the other is being refurbished) so I’d you don’t have any patience, this is not the place for you. Front desk staff was very kind and helpful. Room was well stocked with amenities. Minibar prices weren’t astronomical (Peroni, $6). Everything was clean. AC was a bit loud and wonky but it worked well. Bathroom has a window you can open for fresh air if needed. I didn’t mind hearing the people outside or the music from the bars. This place had a lot of character and I would stay here again. My daughter also loved it. The restaurant was also really good!

Nothing

The hotel was quaint and cute. Nice to have restaurants onsite. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Only thing was the smallness of the room and shower and no drawers to store things. Elevator was vintage so slow. Hotel turned out to be convenient to wedding facilities.

The Palihotel has a bit of a Wes Anderson vibe though the color palette doesn’t quite fit. There is a great attention to detail in the decoration. The hotel is old but that adds to its charm. My son loved the candy jar in the lobby, the gated elevated and the view from the roof.

The biggest issue with our stay was the elevators. Only one elevator was working, and since we were assigned a room on one of the highest floors, it took forever to get up and down. Waiting for the elevator was frustrating, especially when we had luggage to carry. It felt very old-school, and the delays made what should have been a simple trip to and from our room much more inconvenient.
