San Diego: Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa & Marina
Southern California hotel reviews
How it rates * *
New and noteworthy: A $65-million renovation has added an eco spa, new pools and slides and pleasantly freshened room décor, landscaping and a restaurant-lounge.
The stay: A big, corporate hotel offers the latest resort must-haves for business and leisure travelers.
The scene: Mostly young families launching mini vacations, often to SeaWorld, from the hotel's home base.
Deal maker: Great new slides at the renovated pool, nice bay views.
Deal breaker: You'll be heading off-site for meals, entertainment and beach sports given the limited access and options at the hotel.
Stats: 1441 Quivira Road, San Diego; (619) 224-1234, www.hyatt.com.
Rates: Rooms begin at $399, suites at $525.
Green touches: Pale. The hotel employs eco-conscious spa products, and an in-room notecard advises that linens may not be replaced daily.
Rating is based on the room, service, ambience and overall experience with price taken into account in relation to quality.
