A nice Hilton, with views
We stayed here when in town for a nearby wedding. The hotel looks out over the convention center, and feels like a nice business hotel. It was close enough to easily walk to other waterfront and Gaslamp area hotels. We did not have any of the noise issues the other reviews mentioned, and our room had a phenomenal view of the water. The only significant negative comment is that if you are on a higher floor, the wait time for an elevator was ridiculously long (more than 10 minutes) during peak periods. For Hilton diamond members hoping for a free breakfast, the hotel simply hands you Starbucks vouchers. Even on a weekend, the line at Starbucks went out the door.
