Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina

Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina

8/10 Good
"This place felt like Hawaii! Loved the slides for the kids but do call and check if it’s open sometimes they have maintenance going on. Also the staff was super friendly and made our kids so happy! Especially Emy and Rosa in the gift shop they delivered a snores set and cookies to our kiddos! Made it so special. It’s a great place to stay for families!"

10/10 Excellent
"I was pleasantly surprised that my reservation included a free American breakfast. The breakfast lounge was clean and had an updated minimalist feel to it which was quite relaxing. The room was clean and we loved the air conditioning system that really cooled us down on a hot summer day. The location is so convenient to Old Town San Diego. The staff was friendly! I’d stay here again."
