We chose this hotel because we wanted to save a little bit of money on a short one-night stay and because it got decent reviews. From the outside and lobby it looks like not much has changed since the late 60s. But our room was quite nice. It was older but clean and comfortable. The best part was it was... More

Thank you so much for your review! You'll be happy to know that all of our rooms are undergoing a substantial remodel. Although you'd probably never notice since it's being done in phases to minimize any inconvenience to our guests. The new rooms will include a new LCD TV, fresh paint, lighting, flooring, bathroom among other improvements. We will continue... More

My wife and I decided that a "staycation" might be nice for a night, so I looked up some deals online and found the Kings Inn for $60/night for a poolside room. The hotel is located in San Diego's Hotel Circle, conveniently off the 8. Not a major deal for us as we're local, but very convenient for access to... More

Stay for 3 nights, went to a chargers football game. Very good location for football. Hotel is older, but comfortable. Staff are very friendly. It's a little hard to get to if you're heading West on I-8. Would stay there again. More

Thank you for your review! As you may have noticed our property was built in the 1960s but that has never detracted from our level of service. Our entire staff prides itself in great service whether it be our housekeepers, maintenance or front desk agents. I'm happy to announce that we are also in the process of a full room... More

We flew into San Diego from Minneapolis and stayed at the Kings Inn. We were very pleased with the room--it wasn't a Hilton but for the money it was a very good value. The hot tub and pool were very nice after a long day traveling. Good location to see the San Diego sites. More

We stayed here for 2 nights. It is a nice hotel with clean and quiet rooms. Great Shuttle-Service (ask at front desk) for only 20$/4 people to Gas Lamp Quartier / Downtown. It was hard to find the hotel in the first place, but otherwise the location was perfect, we could drive to all the places we wanted to see.... More

Hotel was located in a convenient place for me. It was right off the freeway and close to what I came to San Diego. We really did enjoy our time here, the room was clean and tidy. The staff were great and the place was quiet. Would stay here again, especially at the rate that I got it at. More

I booked this hotel through Expedia's Unpublished Rates Service as the offer was for a 3 star hotel at $75. I've booked 3 and 4 star hotels in San Diego for around that price before so I THOUGHT I was getting a good deal. boy was I in for a surprise!! This was definitely NOT a 3 star hotel. Don't... More
