I stayed at the Hotel Republic while attending a conference at the San Diego Conference centre -- around a 20-min walk or a 5-min taxi journey away.

The greeting I received from the front desk staff was fantastic. Very warm and helpful.

There is a lovely reception area with complimentary refreshments for visitors, as well as a relaxing bar area.

My room itself was on the 17th floor with a city view, a comfortable and really big bed, plus a large-screen TV and a lovely cushioned area by the window to relax and look out over San Diego.

The hotel also has complimentary Wi-Fi which is strong, fast and reliable.

The location of the hotel is close to both the bay area and Little Italy, with plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby.

Overall, this hotel exceeded expectations. I'd definitely stay here again when I'm in San Diego!
