This hotel definitely has the potential to be a wonderful place to stay. Unfortunately there are so many problems with the property that I cannot imagine staying here again. We arrived on a very early flight and had asked for an early check in which ended up being no problem. We were in town for a wedding and told by... more

The Solamar is a typical Kimpton hotel where each one surprises because of its modern, tastefully decorated rooms and the unusually relaxed staff. They are very dogfriendly and are the only ones that I know of that do not charge a dime for your dog to come with you. We enjoyed the stay in the Gaslampquarter and will come back... more

The hotel is a hip, sleek place with a cool, modern decor, perfectly located to be a convenient launching pad to walk the Gaslamp/Harborside/East Village neighborhoods. Petco Ballpark is a couple of blocks away. The 4th floor pool is neat. The staff was super-friendly too. The few down points were the noise levels from the neighboring rooms and the rather... more

Everything about hotel was fine except for the pool area. If you're from Northern Europe you like to relax by a pool when the sun is shining. But at Solomar there are only 8 sun loungers, not nearly enough for a large hotel. While we were there a company held a meeting in pool area, we were on vacation trying... more

The Hotel Solarmar is a lovely boutique hotel with great aesthetics & very clean. We stayed for 6 nights, in early June and the location was perfect! We are pretty independent tourists, I had planned most of our activities before we arrived; but Timin, their Concierge, was great by pointing out the various places throughout the Gaslamp District to be... more

We recently stayed at the Hotel Solamar for 7 nights. The Bad Noise can be a challenge if you are sensitive or a light sleeper. $30 a day for valet. Parking in general. Condescending/ indifferent responses to 2 of our housekeeping requests. Getting used to the funky (cool) sink so that you do not splash (especially for my height challenged... more

My husband and I stayed at this hotel to celebrate his birthday along with our anniversary. The place was perfect. Very clean, very modern, great location, wonderful service, cool/young vibe. The rooms were very clean with a nice hip decor. Our window looked over to Petco Park, and we even walked over and watched the team practice on opening day.... more

Free Internet! excellent customer service: all staff was friendly. concierge put my friends... more

I stayed here for business recently and the experience was almost 100% positive. The registration clerk was unfriendly, but willingly gave me a room that did not overlook the pool (I had heard about the noise). The rooms are very nice and modern, with nice bathroom fixtures too. I had dinner alone at the restaurant (I think it is called... more
