awesome location and far from the experience of a "chain" hotel. great "old style" gaited elevator (historic) and the roof was amazing but unfortunately roof bar was not open. price point was great and room was smallish but well decorated and had all I needed and the Gaslamp district was right out the door. relatively easy walk to conference center and this hotel was closer to where you want to be for dining etc than the big expensive hotels by conference center. would happily stay again.

Great Instagram hotel. Not super functional though. The rooms are so tiny and the bathroom is even tinier. and the elevator, although is cool, it's a pain in the butt.

Cute hotel with a unique vibe set conveniently in the Gaslamp district of San Diego. Bathrooms were interesting, with the sink being outside of the bathroom in the main room. The elevators were small and kind of hard to get in and out of with luggage and more than 3-4 people made it cramped. Rooms were spacious and clean. Main pro is the easy valet pull-up parking and the walkable distance to all the restaurants in the area

Palihotel was really cute and in a great location. The rooftop has an amazing view and drinks! The staff was friendly but it was hard to get in contact with the front desk after 8pm.

We only stayed for 1 night, but very much enjoyed our time at the hotel. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The Saint James bar and restaurant is fabulous!
This was the Happy Hour’s “Cocktail of the Day”. A Rosè and Thyme infused Gimlet. Delicious!!!
Known as the “Wink and a Nudge”, this specialty cocktail has just the right amount of spice to complement the sweet and smoky of the Mezcal.
