My wife and I stayed at the Sofia for 2 nights and the hotel was wonderful. Attentive and pleasant staff. Our check in and out was fast and efficient. Although the rooms are tiny, they are well appointed and nicley decorated. The Sofia gives off a cool, sophisiticated vibe but with a friendly and professional staff. The hotel offers valet... more

This was our last stop before travelling back . When I organised this 3 weeks California-Nevada roundtrip we thought it would be a nice idea to rest the 4 last nights in San Diego before driving back to L.A. and fly back to Europe. We chose this city hotel on purpose as we like to be central because of the... more

Had a one night stay prior to joining Cruise Ship. Hotel is well located on Broadway close to Horton PLaza in one direction and Seaport Village in another. Area is plagued with homeless but they are in the most harmless. Hotel is moden and clean, but public areas are tiny. The reception area, lobby (if there is one) and public... more

On first look, it is quite atttractive. Nice look, friendly and helpful staff and free business center Internet computers. But there are so many problems that I just can't recommend it - even to my worst enemy! First, the rooms are VERY small. The average hotel room is 350 to 550 sq. ft. This hotel's queen rooms are only 207... more

Lovely, well designed hotel in a good location in down-town San Diego in the gaslamp quarter. Staff were professional and helpful. Rooms were cosy but really well furnished and designed. It was everything we wanted for our stay in San Diego and was a good base for travelling around the city with easy access to the trolley and bus routes. more

I stayed at the Sofia hotel while attending a conference at the San Diego convention center. The hotel is located within walking distance of the convention center (about a ten minute walk), and pretty much any store or restaurant that you could ever need can be found within a few blocks of the hotel. There is a greyhound station in... more

This looked a nice 'heritage' hotel at first, but we found that the room (which was very good for watching the vagrants on the street corner) quite small and a bit poky. The restaurant was not good and very expensive, lucky there was a good coffee shop next door. Eating out was okay (when we were not being pestered by... more

My 14 year old daughter and I had never been to California so we searched online and booked part of our trip in L.A. and part in San Diego. We absolutely loved the Sofia Hotel. The boutique rooms are very pretty, yes we had a crappy view but who cares you arent in your room for the view, we loved... more

This hotel is not for business travelers - this is a very old school hotel room style - the rooms are extremely small (the bathroom even smaller) - the closet doors can't even open all the way - I feel like I'm in a shoebox. The restaurant is prominently displayed on the website and even at check-in after a long... more
