There wasn’t much of a bar and restaurant. ( I didn’t see a restaurant). The Gaslamp area was very busy, yet the Horton Hotel bar was dead. The room was clean, cozy, and quiet. Great location.

We loved our stay at the Horton Grand.Our room was CLEAN, COMFORTABLE, SAFE, and exactly as advertised. This historic hotel has a wonderful and friendly staff. The building is beautiful, especially in the bar, and oozing with historic charm. Despite the age of the building, there was no lack of modern comfort or amenities. The Wifi was strong and our room was very comfortable and secure. Situated in the heart of the Gaslamp area, we were not short of options to dine or shop. The tram is only two blocks away and gave us access to the Little Italy neighbourhood with ease. San Diego is very walkable from this hotel but the tram made it a little easier. Within just a couple of blocks of Petco Park, The Coronado ferry, The Convention Centre, and the Midway Museum. Being this close to all the action did expose us to the noise that downtown in a major city will have. If you are seeking a quieter stay, the hotel has a courtyard with rooms on the inside that I'm sure are much quieter than our room on the street side was for whiskey Wednesday across the street. Our windows muffled it significantly so I was fine.

I really enjoyed the location of the hotel and the vibe! It is such a gem of a find! Definitely recommend for a stay more than 2 days to enjoy the evening time in the hotel! It was sad that I was not able to enjoy a drink or dinner there as my trip was cut short. Also, it would have been nice to have access to brunch or lunch in their restaurant. But there are other options all around the hotel in the Gaslamp area - I just like convenience!

The property is historic and really cool but they need some better maintenance and a couple upgrades. A little run down there the bathrooms and the carpeting but the fireplace is working and a nice touch. The resort fee is not worth the price.
