Hotel RAMADA INN & SUITES GASLAMP

The Ramada Inn and Suites stands in the heart of San Diego's historic Gaslamp Quarter, offering families, lovers, groups and business travelers the affordable accommodations they expect from one of the world's most popular hotel companies. Opened in 1913 as the St. James, San Diego's original high rise luxury hotel, today's Ramada still features European style cage elevators and views of the skyline and pristine bay from the rooftop terrace and 1,300 square foot presidential suite. More than 150 restaurants, nightspots and shops, convention center, San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld and other kid friendly attractions, pro sports venues, beaches and sea excursions, and Mexico are minutes from the hotel. To build up their energy for all this sightseeing, guests can begin with the hotel's hot breakfast buffet of pancakes, eggs, French toast, bacon and sausage at the Joan Crawford Bar, where they can spot holes created by the actress' high heels when she was dancing on the bar years ago in her home in Italy. At night, they can sample Basil Crusted Alaskan Halibut with Basmati Rice and Champagne Crème
