San Diego is definitely a mecca in many ways. Enjoying the best climate in the country, the attractions there are as varied as the people. And the hotels in San Diego are also very varied. Just ask anyone from Maine to Arizona to California what they associate with this city, and they’ll tell you they think fun, relaxation and beauty.
Sure, tropical resorts are great for romance and escape. But if you’ve ever longed for the water without spending the time and money on an extended vacation, then San Diego is a great place to visit. It has more than 70 miles of coastline and some of the most famous attractions in the world. Even Californians who live nearby use it as a quick getaway, whether they want to sunbathe, cruise, or simply experience great food, rich history, and a wide variety of entertainment, while staying in one of the many San Diegos.

This city marks the starting point of El Camino Real: the line of missions that the early fathers established to settle California. Rich in Spanish, Native American, and even military history, downtown celebrates its heritage. Yet on the other hand, San Diego is a working city with many suburbs and commuters. And that’s what makes this place so convenient. You don’t have to plan and pay for a big getaway. Instead, it is a regular city with all the comforts and all the pleasures.
Once you check out of one of those San Diego hotels that range from the simple budget type to the Hotel del Coronado itself, you have the option of biking, sailing, hot air ballooning, bird watching, hang gliding, scuba diving snorkeling and playing golf. Simply sightseeing will fill your day, but of course you don’t want to miss the famous San Diego Zoo or Wild Animal Park, and don’t forget the crown jewel of them all, SeaWorld. PETCO Park, the local Padres’ ballpark, is wonderfully kid-friendly, as there is a large sand playground behind the outfield where the kids can play while the parents sit back and still have a view of the game. If you’re feeling especially adventurous, you can even take an excursion across the border to Mexico.
If you don’t feel like the aforementioned attractions, there are plenty of military attractions to go around. San Diego is a major military base, and the sight of the ships in the water off the coast is truly impressive. If you want a little more culture, there’s also plenty of theater and, best of all, world-famous cuisine. Or travel a little north or east and you can enjoy the world-renowned aquarium in La Jolla, the cliffs at San Clemente, or Legoland.
Ranking all of the hotels in San Diego can be a bit daunting as there are literally hundreds. That should tell you how many people run there for a rejuvenation break. But you can easily use the Internet to find quality accommodation. This city offers everything you want it to offer, even if you prefer a fast pace and the chance to quickly go from beach to brick. But then again, San Diego hotels are designed to be a retreat unto themselves. With rooms ranging from simple decor that reflects the waterfront to rooms with ocean views, why leave your hotel room? Resting, exploring, exercising, dining, shopping, swimming or enjoying the many attractions, take your pick in San Diego.
