The Wayfarer is our go-to when in San Diego. You are steps from the beach and can be oceanfront if you choose the right room. It is perfect walking distance to numerous restaurants and shopping. The patio and pool are great. Our last stay we watched every sunset from the hot tub. Clean comfortable rooms throughout the property. Love this spot!

The room was clean and good size, the sound of waves could be heard from the room, we love it. Parking in the hotel it’s comfortable but an expensive. The area have a lot of options to eat and the sidewalk is good to walk, running, bike… especially through the day, in the night the sidewalk have few lights, could be much better.

An exceptional stay along Pacific Beach. We hope to be able to return to The Wayfarer in the future. Walkable to everything in Pacific Beach; restaurants, shopping, nightlife, beach/parks, etc. Great service and hospitality overall.

Great location

We were only here one night but it’s a great location, very clean and comfortable. The $40 parking per day would get pricey but it is a great location and you get what pay for. They were doing a lot of upkeep work on the property although none of it disrupted our stay. There was a scheduled power outage but I don’t know if it even happened as it was after we were asleep, however they did provide flashlights just in case. Great customer service.

We loved it here. The staff were wonderful, the place clean and tidy. The room was spacious and trendy. The pool and hot tub were clean and nice too. Good restaurants within walking distance and beach conveniently located right outside the gate. One downfall was the parking. $40/day was a bit steep in our opinion.
