Old Town Location

Located in Old Town San Diego, the hotel sits atop Juan Bandini's 1827 adobe home, the second-oldest building in Old Town. Nearby landmarks include La Casa de Estudillo (0.3 km), Seeley Stables (0.3 km), Old Town San Diego State Historic Park (0.3 km), Whaley House Museum (0.5 km), and Presidio Park (0.5 km). The Cygnet Theater performs next door in a reconstructed historic building.

Guest Services

Registered hotel guests receive reserved parking for the duration of their stay. The hotel provides facilities for disabled guests, luggage storage, meeting facilities, and elevator access. Breakfast includes complimentary coffee, tea, and pastries served in the historic saloon. The staff offers personalized attention due to the small number of rooms.

“In my opinion, this property offers a deliberately curated experience, transporting guests to a more gracious era of hospitality. The meticulously restored 1870s building, coupled with its prime location in Old Town San Diego, makes it ideal for those seeking a historically immersive visit. I think the personalized service and unique setting provide a refreshing alternative to typical hotel accommodations.”
