The Spotlight on Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

Relaxed Vibes in the Heart of San Diego's Music Scene

Modern, colorful, and tropical in all the right ways, Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter brings a laid-back island feel to the buzzing heart of downtown San Diego. Just steps from the Gaslamp Quarter’s renowned nightlife and within easy walking distance of top concert venues and PETCO Park, the hotel offers a perfect mix of comfort and convenience for music lovers.
Spacious rooms come with 55-inch flat-screen TVs, spa-style bathrooms, and some even feature city views or spa baths. Whether you're pre-gaming before the show or winding down after, the rooftop pool and lounge are the place to be.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and Margaritaville nails it. You're within walking distance of major venues, including shows at PETCO Park and the Convention Center. Despite being in San Diego’s energetic entertainment district, guests say rooms stay surprisingly quiet—ideal for post-concert rest. Check-in begins at 4:00 PM and check-out is at 11:00 AM, giving you enough time to sleep in after a late night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to hit the rooftop bar before or after the show
  • Solo travelers ticking a concert off their bucket list
  • Couples turning a concert into a romantic weekend
  • Fans who want a chill place to recharge after a loud night
  • Budget-conscious music lovers wanting great value in a top location

Food and Drink Options

If you're craving something late, the rooftop lounge serves food and drinks with a view, and there's a wide selection of walkable eateries in the Gaslamp Quarter. While there's no 24/7 room service, breakfast is available—perfect for morning-after recovery. The on-site dining leans toward the coastal and casual, right in line with the hotel’s island-inspired vibe.

Nightlife Options

  • On-site rooftop lounge with music and great views
  • Surrounded by bars, clubs, and live music venues in the Gaslamp Quarter
  • Local breweries and cocktail spots just a stroll away

What People Say

Guests love the fun, tropical décor, friendly staff, and unbeatable location. Reviewers often mention the easy walk to concerts and games, as well as the clean, stylish rooms and rooftop pool as standout features. Many say it’s a spot they’d come back to for another music weekend.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the parking fees are on the higher side and valet is the only on-site option. Also, while the rooftop area is a hit, it can get a bit busy before and after events—so plan ahead if you're aiming for a prime seat.

The Bottom Line

If you're headed to San Diego for a concert, Margaritaville Hotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter offers laid-back comfort, rooftop vibes, and the ultimate downtown location—just steps from the action.

A pleasant and comfortable stay...

Liked: The hotel was very beautiful and in a great location. There were plenty of restaurants and a CVS nearby, which was super convenient. The room was clean, and the water pressure was strong, which made showering very comfortable. And it’s pet-friendly!
Disliked: Due to a booking system issue, I didn’t get the room type I originally booked, and the corner room I was given had some minor noise during the earlier part of the night. However, the front desk staff was very polite and handled the issue professionally by offering a small discount as compensation, which I appreciated.

Very poor

Liked: The hotel was fine but the service is horrible.
Disliked: I asked for an invoice for the room charges. They told me that booking.com must provide the invoice. Booking.com says the hotel is responsible to provide the invoice. I was on a business trip and I still have no invoice for the room charges. I need this invoice. Additionally, I paid twice the Guest Amenities Fee, once with booking.com and once during check-out. My emails were not responded and also the hotel didn't response to the request of booking.com. This is not a good SERVICE.

The location is wonderful. The...

Liked: The hotel is perfectly located. We walked everywhere.
Disliked: We went to the hotel bar on our first night. Upon checkout, we found out they charged us for food we did not consume (we only ordered a $20 ceviche but they charged us >$50). We were told that the manager would contact us about it. We still haven’t heard from them.

Relaxing stay

Liked: Great location, comfortable stay, cordial staff at front desk, clean rooms
Disliked: the staff at the bar needs to provide better customer service, we ordered takeout from the bar for one family member closed out the tab, and some of us wanted to sit down and eat at the restaurant. There was so much confusion between the staff at bar and restaurant, as a customer I should have the choice to move between bar and restaurant without having to deal with this unpleasantness, very annoying
