Was in town to attend baseball games at Petco Park. Great location to walk to Petco and many restaurants in the area. Hotel is historic with beautiful woodwork and molding throughout. The courtyard is very charming and great place to relax with large trees. Bar is small but great staff.

Beautiful hotel. A bit loved. Great location. Wished the windows opened more than an inch to air the room out. Thin walls and lots of charm.

I loved this property. This was my first stay at the Horton Grand Hotel and it was awesome. The room was large and there was a bay window with original stained glass and there was even a working fireplace. We stayed on the top floor and it was very quiet. The valet parking was super easy to get in and out of, although I left my car in parking the entire time as we could walk to everything. I would absolutely stay there again!

Staff was great! Room was nice, bed was comfortable and the AC worked lovely. Breakfast at the attached restaurant was mediocre and if you’re looking for a mimosa with your breakfast, they dont serve alcohol till 1pm. Not a deal breaker!
