About the Project
This high-end, luxury hotel is located along the waterfront at the nexus of Broadway and Pacific Highway in Downtown San Diego.  The project is the second phase of a two-phase hotel master plan on land owned by the Unified Port of San Diego.  This 400-room, full-service hotelÌýincludes a two-acre public park and a new landscaped pedestrian corridor. The hotel was constructed on the site previously home to the Pacific Coast League Padres baseball team from 1936 to 1957. The 2-acre park commemorates the significance of this location.
