"The 11-story historic building is downright regal. Inside, the lobby feels palatial, with sparkling chandeliers, glossy tile floors, and impressive Corinthian-style columns. The hotel has a strong cocktail program, and the Vieux Carré experience is particularly special; bartenders make the cocktails tableside on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Plus, the location is central to Balboa Park, the San Diego Zoo, buzzy restaurants in Little Italy, and the scenic bayfront area." - Archana Ram, Beth Demmon
