Hotels pre-cruise in San Diego

[mister exec]

Any suggestions for a hotel in San Diego that is close to the cruise ship port?

Come over to the West Coast Departure board, here:

where San Diego is extensively covered. You will see about 5 hotels relatively close to the pier.

Thanks Bruce. I didn't know about this departure board.

We had a very nice post cruise stay at the US Grant Hotel. The hoho trolley has a stop at the Horton Plaza very close to the hotel. Lots of places to eat & drink in the area. Was not sure if you were looking for a place to spend some time precruise or just lay your head until the next day.

We have stayed at the Best Western Bayside Inn which is about 4 blocks from the cruise terminal. We found the lobby a bit dated but the rooms were updated, large clean and very comfortable. The rate included breakfast, free airport shuttle and cruise terminal shuttle. It is also kitty corner to a great Italian restaurant called Petrini's.
