Inn At The Park

This is not a hotel I would visit with children. It is a rejuvinated older building with lovely furnishings. It is located across from Balboa Park, but you don't have a balcony to really enjoy the view. It is close to Karen Krasne's Extrodinary Desserts (and they are). Near downtown as well.

Lovely location in the midst of some gourmet bistros, across from a part of Balboa park and very near the zoo. They don't require valet service but they have it available and I highly recommend using it - finding parking is challenging and the valets are wonderful. The room was beautifully done in art deco and a pleasure to come back to in the evening. Very convenient too to have a full kitchen attached. The breakfast provided was basic but definitely sufficient, and they have a menu of very reasonably priced breakfast entrees that you can order if you want a little more in the way of hot food. You are well taken care of by attentive waiters. I did buy the healthy vegetarian eggs benedict one morning and it was delightful, just what I wanted that particular morning. Otherwise I was happy with the continental breakfast provided. ...read more

Kind of funky, converted hotel, with kitchens in room. Close to airport.

The Inn at the Park was a great place to stay for 3 nights. I loved the location- within a mile of lots of great restaurants and bars in Hillcrest and I could see Balboa park from my window! I had a beautiful room and for a very reasonable price. The room was large, modern, with a beautiful bathroom and a small kitchen. The building is older, but my room was very nicely remodeled. The only "negatives" might be the poor Wifi signal in the rooms and the Valet parking only system. Minor things that didn't detract from my overall experience which was quite pleasurable. I would definitely stay here again. ...read more

The location is pretty central to the "sights" and equidistant to a lot of them. It's a 2 mile walk to downtown but I assume many would want to drive. It's right next to Balboa Park and walking distance to the zoo (maybe a mile?) They offer a fabulous concierge service who will provide a map and answer any questions. I was thoroughly thrilled with my stay.

This was a great experience! Nostalgic and a step away from the rat race of the big hotels. If you are planning a trip to Balboa Park; the Zoo or the Museums this is a gem. This is also child friendly staff...we are grandparents and it was a joy to watch the youngsters there with their parents.

Across the street from Balboa Park, close to neighborhood restaurants, friendly neighborhood. I like that the hotel is being restored instead of gutted and remodeled. The historic integrity has been retained, but the building is updated to meet standards of today's clients. Very nice!
