The hotel

In the heart of the Gaslamp District, the Andaz is a sophisticated yet simple hotel offering the very best in accommodation and entertainment. The rooftop is the place to be– it’s not only home to a beautiful swimming pool and sundeck, its where you’ll find San Diego’s largest rooftop bar with DJs spinning the latest tunes whilst you sip cocktails and admire panoramic views of the downtown skyline. If you feel the need for a work-out, the gym is open 24-hours. A lovely place to while away the evening, afterwards you can head to RoofTop600 on the weekends. San Diego’s myriad attractions are all close by, including great shopping at Horton Plaza, just 2 blocks away.

Not up to Andaz standards. Arrived at 2 pm only to be told it’s “so early” and the room wasn’t yet ready- okay, fine, I get checkin is at 4. Get my room - standard queen- and actually laughed out loud. It is lined up precisely with, and looks directly into, another room only about 15 feet away.

Not up to Andaz standards. Arrived at 2 pm only to be told it’s “so early” and the room wasn’t yet ready- okay, fine, I get checkin is at 4. Get my room - standard queen- and actually laughed out loud. It is lined up precisely with, and looks directly into, another room only about 15 feet away. With the shower facing the window and the bathroom separated from the room by a wall of clear glass, the only way to have privacy is to close the curtains and eliminate all natural light. Okay. I get unpacked and notice the furnishings are really worn- the desk is peeling and the metal surfaces have changed finish. More like a budget motel than the Andaz’s I’ve stayed at before. Also- My shoes are sticking to the tile floor. Fine, I’ll just wipe it down- except then I realize there are no towels, just a bath mat. And someone else’s room key on the shelf above the coffeemaker. Ok- I’ll just call to get some. Except the phone, despite being plugged into the wall, doesn’t work and has no dial tone. Really surprised at the quality here. Read less

Great location with walkable distance to good food. But the room needs remodeling. We had a stained towel which is the first time for all my stays in Hyatt hotels. It might be clean but visually unacceptable especially for a top-branded hotel.

This hotel is overpriced and drastically needs remodeling. The rooms have a musty odor, and you can hear every noise on the street. It's a bad sign when they provide you with earplugs in the room. Stay away. Hyatt should be embarrassed to call this a high-end boutique hotel.

This was my first solo vacation and my first time in San Diego. The Andaz is located in a great spot, not too far from everything. The staff are very nice and good at what they do. The rooms was cleaned everyday. The rooftop lounge/bar has great food and beverages, as well as a good view of the city in general.
