Andaz San Diego by Hyatt

I recently stayed at the Andaz San Diego and overall had a great experience. The hotel has a modern, stylish design with a strong boutique vibe. The rooms are clean, well-furnished, and the beds are very comfortable. The rooftop bar and pool are definitely the highlights – great atmosphere, stunning views, and good cocktails. The location is excellent if you want to explore the Gaslamp Quarter – lots of bars, restaurants, and nightlife within walking distance. However, that also means it can get a bit noisy at night, especially on weekends. Service was professional, though not overly personal. Check-in was smooth, I would not recommend the valet parking as there are way cheaper options just around the block. Overall, a solid upscale hotel choice in downtown San Diego – perfect for younger travelers or couples looking for a stylish stay with nightlife options nearby. Not ideal if you’re looking for peace and quiet.

Small Rooms...Good Elite Breakfast Reviewed May 17, 2024 We stayed for one night recently at the Andaz San Diego. The room was nice but small. As stated in many reviews the overall room layout and the strange curtain were very awkward. The bed was comfortable. We had planned to use the pool but it seemed to be closed for a private party... The hotel provided ear plugs and a note about noise from the neighborhood...shown in pic. The best part of our stay was the breakfast and service. Jesse at the rooftop restaurant was "Brand Ambassador" in addition to being a top-notch waiter. The valet was extremely slow...unfortunate for the cost. We stayed at four other Hyatt properties on this trip and while the Andaz was not a "bad" property it was our least favorite of the trip. I didn't see the other reviews here on TA before it was too late for me to cancel or I would have changed to one of the other properties. Date of stay: April 2024 Traveled as a couple

The room had strong urine smell. The front desk claimed fully booked and refused to change room. However, apparently it’s not fully booked) Originally I gave 1 star. I add another star for the quick service to clean the bathroom and spray some refreshing. (The urine smell is from the carpet and they just can’t do anything)
