Breakfast chefs were rude and rushed us thru the line. Only once line staff was nice and I wish I grabbed her name. Aside from her the three chefs were rude and one staffer I asked for gluten free bread from spoeared bother with the ask. People have food allergies such as myself, so mkre options would be great, and without the attitude. The stay otherwise was great, but id say the food st the Monterey Bay Embassy Suites was superior, including the staff.

The room was ok, we have stayed in this hotel years ago and it seem much better. Today the breakfast felt cheap and the place is due for a remodel. But, we were disappointed about the extra fees and parking fee.

Unhappy Hilton honor’s customer.Mike Maayeh

Not so good. Reception desk,at checking in, told us that our parking is free because we are Hilton honor members. However, it was added to our bill. Discuss with manager and her response to us was “ there is no way that her employee would’ve told us that !!! Means we are not being truthful!!! Shame on you as a company to accuse your customers before you discuss with your employees!!

We had a great experience at Embassy suites. Their breakfast selection was great. And we loved the evening reception. Unfortunately, parking was very expensive. But I think that’s the case for most hotels in the area. Thankfully, we had tons of things to do in the surrounding areas.

Perfect hotel for families

We extended our stay after San Diego Comic Con, and this hotel always delivers. The rooms are spacious and great for families with kids (they can actually spread out a bit and have space to play). The breakfast is fast and delicious with omelet options (the cooks are amazing!). The evening reception is perfect to wind down (the Pride-arita is my favorite). The location is great for walking by the water and going to Seaport Village. We try to stay here every
