The Pendry Hotel is a lovely, five star hotel located in a perfect part of the Gas Lamp quarter in downtown San Diego. The hotel is inviting; the decor is chic without being intimidating, the staff is friendly, and the food and beverage at each restaurant is very good. The fitness center, spa, and rooftop pool are bonus amenities. I would recommend The Pendry to couples and families on vacation as well as business persons.

Our stay was very nice. Good service and excellent housekeeping. Nice hotel overall. We had 2 bumps in the road that had me knock off a star. The pool was very crowded when we went around 2pm on a Friday. Although I saw attendants, there was no help in showing what was available or helping anyone to find a chair. You are completely on your own. Also, I had to get up and go to the bar to get a drink as well. Someone did check on us later, after I already had my drink. If I were to go to San Diego again and wanted to use the pool, I’d pick a different hotel. It’s just not well attended by the staff. If I was not planning on using the pool, I would stay here again. The other bump was the morning of check out - we kept getting calls to our room when no one was on the other line. Have no idea why. Texted the help number provided to see what was going on but no one responded. The first call woke us up. So nice hotel but a few more issues than I expected due to the price.

Great location in the Gaslamp District only a few blocks away from the convention center, ballpark, and Coronado Island ferry. There’s literally bars, restaurants, ice cream shops, convenience stores, and breakfast spots within just 25 feet of the front door of The Pendry. Traffic isn’t horrible and it’s easy to drive and navigate to and from and Ubers have good and easy access. They have a great foyer with a warm fireplace and very trendy leather skirt couches. Hotel staff is posted up everywhere including outside on the corner making your approach, entry, and exit of the hotel feel elevated and secure. The rooms are nicely appointed and fresh and clean giving an elevated and sexy vibe. The room has a good BT speaker which is a nice touch. HVAC works great to keep room very cool. Waterfall shower head in the all glass standup shower (more than big enough for two) next to the master bed is also very fun and sexy.
