I had visited this place before when it used to be the Aladdin Hotel and Casino a few years back. I enjoyed my stay then, and this time is no exception. My family and I were here from a Tuesday through Friday, so we didn't encounter too much of a…More »
I didn't milk the place for what it's worth, but I do know that the view of the beach from the rooms here is awesome. The staff at the front desk and valet parking were friendly and welcoming. The hotel has an ABC store downstairs, the fish tank in…More »

The MGM sure is Grand. Grand in the sense that I had to walk more than halfway across the hotel to get to my room, but it was a really nice room. I upgraded from a room in their Grand Tower to one in their West Wing. It's the best and most modern…More »

Not bad for a so-called "green" hotel. They don't have their toiletries in containers. Instead, the soap, lotion, shampoo, and conditioner come in dispensers to cut down on waste. The size of the room was, well roomy. It had a high ceiling which I…More »

Upon booking this hotel, I assumed it was where I had stayed when I last came to San Diego about 8 years ago. Nope, wrong hotel. (It was Holiday Inn On The Bay, d'oh!) Nevertheless, my stay was pleasant from beginning to end. It's extremely close to…More »
Still has the same impeccable service that I had received from my last stay a few years ago. The hotel is close by to most of the places I visited during my trip, and also had easy access to the freeway. Seems like it's a very family friendly hotel…More »

I used their Get To The Point promotion for my room reservation this past weekend and got a sweet deal on a room for 3 nights. It had a pretty good view, and we didn't hear any noise from the rooms next to us, only when people were passing through…More »

I got a really nice deal with this hotel. Good enough that it had a few friends say, "What, you're staying in La Jolla?!?!" Why yes, yes I am! Turns out that prices on hotels around this area are a bit steep, so I really lucked out on this one. The…More »
In the words of Usher, Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...Oh my gosh! This place is a beaut. My friends and I dropped of the birthday girl at the end of the night and hung out in her room before heading back to TI. The room was money. The view from it, money.…More »
A friend got a sah-weet deal for this place during Comic-Con weekend. It was a stop on the shuttle line and several places were within walking distance from the hotel. Their printing station was helpful when we had to get our boarding passes and bar…More »
Concluded my week long stay in SD with two nights here. Alyssa was extremely helpful and answered any questions I had. The room was very spacious. They also honored my request to have extra pillows and towels there upon check in. Having 7 pillows on…More »
Still lovin' this hotel the second time around. Found yet another deal online while booking for my family vacay for my dad's birthday. The package also included a discount on tickets to Mystere. Sah-weet! Again, check-in was a breeze. Although we…More »

Another stay here and I still haven't been swayed towards the negative. It was extremely convenient to catch the shuttle to CES. Although the hotel was a stop, we could never seem to make it in time for the 10:30am cut off. Fortunately, it's along…More »

This hotel made a nice venue for my cousin's wedding this past weekend. They were given a nice amount of space for the reception with both a paid and cash bar, depending on what you wanted to drink that night. The ballroom was very spacious and…More »
This location is tucked within the business area of Sorrento Mesa. It was pretty quiet throughout my stay, with the exception of hearing people walk down the hall and an issue with their fire alarm. I liked the modernized lobby with interactive…More »
This is my review based on the hotel as an event venue only.
Visited twice within a few weeks apart for a musical performance by Ellie Goulding and the NOH8 Campaign photo shoot. They really know how to step their game up here at the W. Everything was…More »
Yet another review of a hotel as an event venue. A friend of mine celebrated turning the big 3-0 here. There was a small 2-hour reception near the pool with waiters passing out complimentary champagne and hors d'oeuvres from the hotel's restaurant…More »
Pros:
- Close to the freeways (163 and 805).
- Comfortable beds
- Friendly staff
- Free parking
- Complimentary wi-fi
Cons:
- The wi-fi, although complimentary, is wired. It would have been fine if I had a laptop or netbook, which I didn't. So I had no way…More »
This place was a God send during this year's SDCC. Located on 5th Street, it was pretty much in the middle of the Gaslamp mayhem. Believe me, there was plenty! The bell staff was wonderful, and we made sure to tip them well for making several trips…More »
Definitely the most modern hotel I have ever stayed at in San Diego to date. I was already excited from browsing their website weeks before my trip. Unfortunately, we couldn't get a view of Petco Park since it was full for SDCC. We still managed to…More »
I suppose luck was on my side when I entered myself in one of their Twitter contests and won a free night stay at the hotel. Got myself a corner room on the 22nd floor of The Palms Tower. It was very spacious, and had a spectacular panoramic view of…More »

Booked this as an HQ for CES. We were lucky enough to get one of their recently updated rooms. Not too many people stayed here during the event, so parking was always available. Plus, it's half a block away from The Strip, so getting around wasn't a…More »
