We stayed here for a romantic getaway and it was delightful!!! Our "travel agent" booked us here and downgraded our room without our authorization. When we went to check in and found out about the downgrade (for the same price!), we brought it to the attention of the hotel staff. They contacted the manager and within 10 minutes, we had... more

Just wanted to post a note that I loved the Hotel Solamar. I got it for 5 night through Priceline. The hotel is modern and clean and in a great location in the Gaslamp. There were hundreds of restaurants and bars in the proximity. A bonus is that Long's Pharmacy is next door so if you need anything like toothpaste... more

I just returned from the hotel and had a very nice stay here. The rooms are very spacious and the beds are quite comfortable. They offer a complimentary coffee bar every morning and a wine reception every evening. The location is central to shops and restaurants. The pool and bar on the fourth floor are alot of fun. The only... more

This hotel is a little different from most with a somewhat more edgy decor, but otherwise it is a typical above-average 4 star hotel. The location, on the edge of the Gaslamp district, is very convenient. The staff were helpful. The rooms were very good; my only complaints were the pressure from the shower head and the fact that there... more

This was my second time at a Kimpton property and I must say they have a nice track record going. Love the hotel and room decor. Service is always the pampered, kind, courteous treatment I think we would all love from every travel related chain. Free wine in the evenings, flexibility to get you whatever you or to wherever you... more

We booked this hotel through Virgin holidays as it was the best price we could find. The hotel is great. Ths staff were all fab and friendly, the rooms were very clean and to a high standard and the free wine hour everyday is spot on. We had a room overlooking the pool, but as the bar closes at 12... more

My husband and I booked the Solamar for a one night escape from our kids. It did not fail us in that respect. The decor was contemporary and inviting. The hotel is close to everything downtown...within walking distance. We even had an awesome view of Petco park from our room. The Gaslamp quarters night life is vibrant and offers a... more

Stayed at the solomar aug 25th - aug 28th 2008. Very nice, and clean 4star hotel which deserves 4 stars! The mood and lighting is very sombre in the public area's, and the check in girls are very pretty (for us guys!!!) The room was very nice, and the bathroom rocked. The only down side is the pool area. The... more

My boyfriend and I stayed here over Labor Day weekend and I wouldn't say it was the best place we've stayed but it wasn't the worst. We stayed at a couple Kimpton hotels in Seattle and were very impressed so we were looking forward to Hotel Solamar. Compared to the hotels in Seattle this was a notch down. The bed... more

This was a decent hotel. We chose it because so many of the other hotels in the Gaslamp area were extremely overpriced, and we were looking for a hotel with a nice pool. We booked this online through expedia for about 150 per night, and it was certainly worth that amount. The rooms were clean, done in a pretty beachy... more
