  • The Ramada St. James -- confusingly also billed as the Gaslamp Convention Center -- may once have been one of Southern California's leading hotels, but that was long, long ago. Today, the hotel is a noisy, rundown, just-this-side-of-nasty place where your neighbors may well be partaking too enthusiastically of the Gaslamp neighborhood's Red Light District attractions. Rooms are VERY small and bathroms more so; the window A/C units are loud; and many rooms face a dark shaft rather than the street. I'm honestly not sure how this place is maintaining its affiliation with Ramada; the overall atmosphere is most akin to a youth hostel. Top-floor suites are moderately better, but still feel rundown. I will admit that the place is adequately clean, but that's about all it has going for it.

    The restaurant, which still hosts the dispiriting breakfast buffet, appears to be otherwise defunct. Most of the desk staff appear to have wandered in off the street -- they were uniformly unhelpful and unprofessional.

    Orginally built in 1913, the St. James was one of the first hotels in the area to have an elevator. It has been refurbished by the Ramada hotel chain and is coming back into it's glory. I would call it a boutique hotel. Central location for San Diego. The parking is tight and you will be charged about $16.00 a day for space. The price is worth the destination.

    Not only is the hotel refurbished, so is the restaurant. Great buffet. Located in the Gaslamp Quarter, the hotel makes a great starting off point for the many bars and nightclubs in the district. Shopping at the Horton Plaza is only a couple of blocks away.

  • This hotel offered excellent service in a convenient location. Our room was a double Queen and had 2 separate bedrooms which is ideal for those sharing rooms. The building is old and has character- the elevators date back to 1913 and still have a metal gate which you have to open to step in/out. This can be a bit tedious if you have alot of luggage. Rooms were clean, maid service was good and the restaurant on premises (Brian's) was convenient, open late, and had a large menu.

    The location is great - right on 6th avenue within walking distance of shops/restaurants in the Gaslamp area. The hotel has character and is quiet.
