Overview

The Hilton San Diego Airport/Harbor Island offers guests a convenient location near the airport, with many praising the hotel's proximity and the reliable airport shuttle service. Many appreciate the stunning harbor views and the comfortable rooms. However, some guests have noted inconsistencies in room quality, with reports of musty rooms and issues with air conditioning. The hotel restaurant is mentioned as expensive, with limited breakfast options, and parking incurs a significant extra cost. The small bathroom size is also a recurring criticism.

Extremely convenient location for airport access, with a free airport shuttle that starts at 4:30 a.m. (which is fine unless you have an overnight flight)

Thank you. Nice room and good view of the harbor. I picked this hotel because of the free shuttle to the airport starting at 0430 in the am.

They charged an extra 200.00 for just a hold and then an extra 35.00 a day for parking.

Only here one night for a layover and other than the check-in (not really their fault) everything was very good.

Overnight stay in San Diego, great location, nice room, comfortable bed and sheets. Didn’t like that we had to pay $30 a night for parking, should have been included with the room. Had to go to the Sheraton next door for morning breakfast, nothing at hotel. Avoid 7 floor, housekeeping uses the floor for all their working stations, there must have been 7 of them lined up outside in the hallway. Not attractive. But overall room was sufficient for price.

I was disappointed with my stay. The hallway smelled like smoke. No continental breakfast for the price of the room should have had something. Plus even had to pay an extra $ 35.00 for parking. I’ve stayed at other upscale hotels and never had to pay for parking. Would not stay there again.
