Our family of 4 stayed for the weekend to take our kids (ages 2 and 4) to the zoo. We loved this hotel! We arrived 1 hr before check-in time and our room was ready. Once we dropped our bags, we were able to enjoy the indoor heated pool. My 4 year old said that was the best part of the whole trip! Room service that night was convenient - food was basic but when traveling with young kids, we look for convenience above all. Similarly the breakfast buffet was just what we needed - decent coffee, made to order omelets, variety of breakfast staples that the kids eat (pancakes, yogurt, fruit, cereal), and plenty of seating. There is nothing worse when traveling than trying to get breakfast with hangry toddlers and having to wait to be seated, then wait for your order. Room was a 1 bedroom with separate living room and lots of features that made it easy to share the space with our kids—like 3 sinks, a fridge + microwave, and blackout curtains. We appreciated the complimentary happy hour each night as well! My only gripes were that parking is valet only and is quite expensive, even with Hilton Honors, and that the tv didn’t have Netflix or other streaming services.

The Embassy Suites San Diego Bay was in a great location. The staff were very accommodating and the room was clean! We stayed the night before a cruise. It was close to the port. It was quite walkable, but we elected to take a cab due to the size of our suitcases. Lots of choices for dinner. We would definitely stay again.

Really over priced, that's basically be of where it located, the bed boards at the bottom were dirty, wore carpet, they just really need to do remodeling recleaning I didn't partake in breakfast so I can't tell you about that. Overall, it's a great location.

Great location in San Diego. Surprised at being charged an additional $25 Destination Fee and overnight parking at $65. Neither TV's in room would work and tried calling Front Desk but got no answer. Went to front desk and they said when the rooms are cleaned the housekeepers do something to the TV's and you have to press 8 on the remote to reset them. Thought this should be mentioned to all new check ins to avoid the hassle.
