WOW? what a gem! – We live in San Diego and just needed a nigh out. We decided to stay at The Sofia Hotel after it was recommended to us from a friend. What a hidden gem?. A NEW luxury boutique hotel in Downtown. The beds are GREAT. The rooms have everything you need including a refrigerator and microwave. They have a full business center where I was able to check my email and print out a large document to review? all FREE of charge. The staff was the friendliest I had ever come in contact with. From the front desk to the be... read more

EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCE! – My husband and I recently stayed at The Sofia for a conference that was located at the Convention Center. We were amazed at the location of the hotel and how close it was to everything from the Gaslamp District for entertainment to the Convention Center for business. The entire staff at the hotel was by far the best we have experienced anywhere in a long time. What a breath of fresh air! This hotel delivered exceptional service at an exceptional price. A true value for those visiting San Diego.

Loved it, Sheik Rooms and Excellent Service! – I recently stayed here for a business trip. I absolutely loved the place! I was there in late February. For the most part, everything was smooth. I guess the hotel must have worked out its kinks. My TV was acting up a but the staff immediately fixed it. The rooms are very contemporary and have a very sheik vibe. The rooms are somewhat small but the comfort level makes up for it. The bedding, including the mattress reminded of a 4 or 5 star hotel. Honestly, the staff was extremel... read more

Nice all around – Great hotel for decent price. Can't beat the location in downtown San Diego. My friend and I stayed at the Sophia in late January '07 and absolutely loved it. It's location in downtown San Diego makes it so convenient to hip, fun restaurants and shopping. The hotel has a soft modern style with great amenities - flat screen TVs, big shower, comfortable beds, the works. Plus parking in downtown is tough, so the courteous valet was a huge plus. Overall, great hotel with a lot of style and the location can't be... read more

Poor Customer Serivce – Upon arrival the entrance is inviting and very sheik. Checking in however was a nightmare. No air-conditioning in the lobby or hallways made for a miserable trip to the room carrying all our bags. Opening the door to our FIRST room we realized that there had been no maid service yet, due to the coffee on the table I wouldn?t be surprised if we just missed walking in on the last reservation. We then dragged our stuff back down to the lobby, explained our situation, and the front desk attendants handed ... read more

The old Pickwick building is transformed into a hip, affordable boutique hotel with its own yoga studio in the Gaslamp. – In Short Though situated on Broadway in the heart of downtown, across from the Sprekels' blinking marquis and next door to the Greyhound bus terminal, the Sofia's fossil art pieces, sheer screens and shell window panels give the lobby an organic, calm feel. The broadband-wired rooms and suites come with fine linens and flat-screens, and all guests have access to the hotel's private yoga studio and fitness... read more

Good Location – This hotel is in a good location, despite the fact that it is right by the bus station. Walking by the lobby, it looks cool inside. I heard there is going to be a restaurant here too pretty soon.
