I had a mixed experience at Pendry San Diego. The location is fantastic, with so many eateries and attractions nearby, but I found the service lacking in accommodations for families. Additionally, the noise level at night was a significant issue, making it difficult to relax.

I had a good stay at Pendry San Diego. the hotel offered a great vibe and a fantastic location in the Gaslamp Quarter. The rooms were comfortable but quite small, and I found that the bathroom design was a bit quirky with its see-through features.

My stay at the Pendry San Diego was quite wonderful! The Deluxe King Corner Suite was spacious and beautifully designed, giving off a luxurious vibe. The staff were remarkably attentive, greeting us with complimentary waters and chocolates that made us feel special. However, there was a minor issue with the bathroom shade that affected privacy slightly, and the neighborhood's noise could be distracting for light sleepers. Despite these hiccups, my overall experience was nice and enjoyable.

I had a fantastic time at Pendry San Diego, with its beautifully designed rooms and friendly staff. The heated pool was a great spot to relax, although I noticed the gym could use more weight equipment. Dining options were a delight, especially at Lionfish and Provisional, but I did find the prices a bit steep. Still, the vibrant atmosphere and prime location in the Gaslamp district made my stay nice.

The Pendry San Diego has a fantastic location in the Gaslamp district and the food at Lionfish was really good. However, my experience was marred by a lack of warm service and a disturbing security breach during my stay. While the stylish decor and room amenities were lovely, the overall experience fell short of expectations.

Rooms
6.0
I appreciated the room's stylish decor and comfort. yet, the shower was rather large, making the overall space feel smaller. The glass-enclosed shower added a modern touch, but the musty smell in the hallway was off-putting.
Service

The staff was nice but lacked warmth. especially at check-in and in the dining areas. My room was entered by someone uninvited, and the situation was not handled well, which left me feeling unsafe.

Its location is perfect for accessing downtown attractions, restaurants, and nightlife. though it can get noisy if you're looking for a quiet experience.

I enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere at Lionfish, with impressively fresh seafood. but breakfast at Provisional left much to be desired; my steak was dry, and the pastry basket didn't seem fresh.
Facilities

The pool area has a lively vibe, but it's hard to find seating, especially on busy weekends. which should have been better communicated to us at booking. In addition, the security concerns were alarming.
