I had a fantastic time and would love to go back! more on Expedia

This is the Working Man's Side. (4th & Island) The original names of the two hotels are, The Grand Horton Hotel which opened in 1886 and the Brooklyn Kahle Saddlery Hotel which opened during the same time period to accommodate the great surge of people moving into the area. more on VirtualTourist

This is a very nice hotel and well worth the price. It is in Gasslight district which is a tourist area but is right next to the trolly lines and easy conection to the train station and business areas. On arrival we found the staff ... more on Yahoo! Travel

Upon our arrival,we found that the reservations were wrong,the front desk clerk as well as the manager were rude.

After reading some of the other reviews left, I have to admit that I was skeptical however I found them all to be completely unfounded.

This hotel was simply stunning; beautiful furnishings, large and very ... more on Yahoo! Travel

Cute, but way overpriced! Proximity to the convention center and many restaurants is a plus; street noise from the bars is a NEGATIVE. Don't expect to sleep soundly until after 2 am when the theater and bars are closed and the crowds ... more on Yahoo! Travel

The Horton Grand is billed as a charming, Victorian, boutique hotel and it is exactly that. We chose it for our San Diego vacation based on the hotel description on the Expedia website which was right on, and also, for the great location. ... more on Expedia

This historic building has been updated, modern bathroom, good bed, but reminds one of staying in old New Orleans years ago. The best part of the stay is being in the heart of the Gaslamp District and close to Horton ... more on Expedia

The Horton Grand was a great experience! It is a restored hotel so don't look for sleek style or furnishings. Each floor has a lobby with a sitting area that is great for meeting other guests or having a small meeting before going ... more on Expedia
