Me and my girlfriend decided to try something different for memorial weekend. We had never stayed at a bed and breakfast and this was the most nostalgic way to experience San Diego. The inn keepers Ben & Doug are the reason this house is so inviting. The house itself is a vintage 1800's home extremely cozy and well maintained. Ben... More

Ben and Doug really made the trip worthwhile. Not only are they great guys who are easy to talk to and personable, but their advice for restaurants and things to do was right on the money every time! Near san diego zoo, balboa park - within walking distance. Even changed plans at the end of the trip to go back... More

One of the best B&B we experienced. The house is well kept and with its Vintage design you feel very cosy. Rooms are very clean and designed with real soul up to the most little details. Everything with the taste of an artist. Even the breakfast is unique and delicious. The two guys in charge are friendly and so helpful... More

We stayed here for two nights and the Keating House was lovely. When we arrived a bit early one of the owners sat down with us and a map of the city and gave us tons of suggestions for entertainment while we were there. Breakfast was also quite good both mornings. We wanted to extend our stay but they were... More

The wife and I stayed at Keating House for a few days during March 2013. Compared to the "el cheapo"-motels we usually choose, this was like getting home. This place is cosy, very personal and has an interesting history dating back to the early days of San Diego. The house is situated in a quiet and safe neighborhood close to... More

Just got back from San Diego where we stayed at the Keating House for six days. Our hosts Ben and Doug were great. They welcomed us to their establishment on our day of arrival and Ben proceeded to tell us where to go for sights, dinner and such. Although we had been to San Diego before, we had not been... More

This is a wonderful bed and breakfast. The hosts, Ben and Doug, know how to treat guests. Upon arriving, Ben gave us a thorough tour, via map spread on the dining room table, of the highlights of San Diego. Since we were going to be tourists for a week, the overview was greatly appreciated. Each morning we shared breakfast with... More

This B&B is really terrific. Beautiful, spacious rooms in a wonderfully appointed 19th century Victorian/Queen Anne house in a great section of the city. The owners are so kind and charming, and the breakfasts are absolutely amazing. We wanted to photograph them before eating them, they were so beautiful.

Keating House really does a fine job assuring the B&B experience is delivered to guests. After a warm welcome by proprietors Doug and Ben, I was given a tour of the facility and given a quick description of the quirks of the old house, a charming Victorian in immaculate condition in the very convenient Park West neighborhood. I stayed in... More

Our 8 night stay in November 2012 at Keating House combining business and vacation was perfection! We stayed in the Garden Suite (separate from the main house) which included a living room and kitchenette. For a several night stay, the roominess was a treat! Such a cozy little suite with everything we could have needed and so charming.The walkway through... More
