Overall the place was great. Good location, clean and beautiful. The only thing I did not like was that I could hear all the outside noise. Friday and Saturday nights were the worst with people partying outside. I was not able to sleep well those two nights. If you are a heavy sleeper, this place may be perfect.

The service at the Horton Grand is so consistently excellent that i want to clone their management, training, and hiring practices for every business.
The staff working there are kind, knowledgeable, and helpful in that way that makes you feel like their favorite guest ever.

My stay is always great when we stay at the Horton . This time they double booked a room and strangers walked in my room in the middle of the night.
Me and my wife were scared and mad.

Always love the Horton— beautiful, clean, comfortable, Friendly.

My second stay with The Horton Grand. We were in town for a birthday and they helped me make it a memorable stay for the birthday girl. Accommodating for early checkin when called in advance. It is an older but still beautiful hotel rooms are a little dated but that goes along with the rest of the place which we liked. Enjoyed that we had a balcony to enjoy the lovely San Diego night air. Room did have a I’d say musty smell to it when we got in aired it out and was good to go for the evening.
4.3
Cool hotel in the gaslamp district.
Bar was nice, loads of bar fly's though.
When I arrived there was no power (for the whole near by 7 blocks) front of house were great, helpful and we're very professional and friendly despite the obvious pressure of having no electricity.

Didn’t spend much time there

Charming and unique atmosphere. Loved the bell service as soon as I exited my Uber. Was given two drink tickets when I arrived, which was a nice surprise and it encouraged me to dine in their restaurant/bar. I don’t think I’ve ever had Better salmon in my life. Absolutely delicious
4.3
The hotel was really neat. The service and people were great. The towels were rough and the ironing board was a small one that went on the desk. Those weee my only two issues but I enjoyed it and thought it was a good hotel for a great price. It was a great place to get out and walk. Most everything was within 10-15 min of a walk.
4.3
Well it must be about sleep and comfort. Great hotel it needs to upgrade their mattresses. Changed rooms to second one not must better. A poor night sleep will ruin any stay.
Great facility just replace your mattresses. I have stayed there at least 6 or 7 times.
4.3
Victor was great. Extremely helpful and accommodating. He truly made the stay wiorth it. We will be back

So the hotel is boutique-y, nostalgic and very Instagramable. I was a little taken aback that it was “haunted”. I missed that on the website. It messed with my psyche and so every bump and thump had me on edge. That’s the only reason why I gave it a 4 star instead of a 5. Once I saw the haunted tour offset of the lobby it put all of the antique furniture in perspective. Very close to everything. Parking is ridiculously priced - another reason for the star deduction. Other than that, great stay!

This is my second time here and love coming back. Room is cozy and classy, and great food at the bar. I will go back again should my travels take me there.
4.3
Great location to walk to all the nightlife of the Gaslamp district. So many restaurants around within walking distance & even a grocery store. Petco stadiums are also within walking distance.
We paid extra for a room with a small balcony. I would bother with it since it faces into a small courtyard. And when people are in the courtyard it echoes up.
4.3
I always stay at The Horton.
It’s the best location in Gaslamp district.
You can walk to great restaurants.
The service is great and beds are comfortable.
4.3
My stayat the hotel was excellent!! I would defiantly stay here again.
4.3
We really enjoyed our weekend stay. It was very convenient to walk to Petco Park for the concert we attended. There are multiple great restaurants within walking distance. Staff was great and friendly. The drinks at Salt and Whiskey were fantastic. Would definitely stay again.
4.3
Loved the antiquity of the hotel. Very pretty. Room lovely, bed amazing. Sweet little balcony overlooking the internal courtyard.
Disappointed that they didn’t offer coffee in the foyer in the morning. Room coffee is always iffy, and going out to find a decent cup at 7am seemed unnecessary and frankly cheapened the otherwise lovely hotel.
Area safe and decent eating about 2-3 blocks away. Area directly around the hotel a little run down but safe. Great eating about 5 minutes walk from the hotel, and hop on hop off trolley literally right around the corner.
We had a great time
4.3
Great hotel. Great staff. The best location. Wish the restaurant and bar were open more.
4.3
I wasn't expecting such a beautiful well kept place. This hotel is worth every minute of your stay. Use the valet service! It's great to utilize this service. Your car is safely stored in their garage nearby and easy to retrieve. It is a great service.
Every employee is kind and helpful. The building is full of cool history and in "museum" condition. When I return I will be staying here for sure. Close to all aminities in the area and a walk to the bay is close by. The Gaslamp Quarter reminds me of New Orleans, lots of diversity.
Thank you for making our stay here exceptional.

Great place and great location!!
4.3
Valet parking only. Staff were lovely. With the $$$
4.3
This old hotel is awesome. Central to gas lamp and walking distance to rail, ferry service and the ballpark. The staff was awesome and the foood/drinks were great. My only petty complaint is the pillows and noise passed through the halls easily. Old hotels are that way, so it’s to be expected.
4.3
I am never staying here again. The front desk had an attitude and was not helpful. Valet was not available so we had to park our car outside until the morning. The security guard was getting beat up by a homeless man and ran inside the main entrance where the homeless man proceeded to throw the bell cart inside. Also the fire place did not work but the room smelled like gas. When we checked out the front desk lady looked sick and unhappy she didn’t even ask how our stay way or say good morning. This property was supposed to be a VIP property but there was no special accommodations or upgrades.
4.3
The hotel was very nice and given it's age, kept up very well. Staff at check-in was excellent and smooth as well. Only minor downsides would be some of the maintenance staff with their exceptionally noisy carts through-out the hallways and the back of service alley which echoed up into our room with the windows closed (woke us a couple of times), and the parking is a little pricey and limited to Valet only.
4.3
Beautiful historic hotel. Well situated. Amazing bar.
4.3
Great location and staff! The room was quiet. The vintage decor is charming. The only downside was the hotel was a little worn but still a great place to stay
4.3
I have stayed here many times. The hotel is beautiful, the staff is friendly and helpful. The only thing I found not so great is the parking fee is $60 per night.
4.3

Loved this Historic Hotel….big spacious room with a balcony. Styled very nicely.
Everybody was super friendly.
Easy walk to Petco Park.
Parking around the area was difficult.
Wifi at Hotel was disconnecting me a little too frequently….but overall we loved the place.

We had a good experience. We stayed at this hotel to attend a concert nearby. The valet did an outstanding job by keeping my vehicle close by for accessibility.
4.3
The property is cute. They have a beautiful courtyard. The website says parking is available, but it is limited valet. They were full when we got there and had to find parking a couple blocks away.
4.3
I had a great time and loved my whole experience staying here. From the staff, to the service, my room and the restaurant. Everything and everyone was excellent!

I will book this for all of my downtown stays. Lovely room over the courtyard. Easy walk to the harbor. Many food options. Great ambiance and staff.

The hotel is right in the gaslamp quarter so it was very easy to walk around to bars and restaurants. We were also able to walk to the Padres game which was great. Service was friendly!
4.3
The stay was great. They let us check-in early. The bartender in the bar was really friendly. First time here and will definitely return. It's very convenient to everything in the Gaslamp district

The stay was fine for one night. Staff was very nice, we got two free drinks at the bar next door. The room was just very small, no fridge and had a strange smell.
4.3
Immaculate room and common areas. Very friendly staff; answered questions with a smile, delivered needed items to room quickly.
Loved the historic charm which was preserved so well.
