Loved this hotel! Too bad we stayed on its last day before it shut down and gets demolished to build apartment homes. It was a modern decor room and spacious. great location close to freeway and restaurants

Always a pleasant stay at the Karlan. Staff is pleasant and helpful. Near many restaurants of the area.

It was very nice but it closed it's doors Jan. 1, 2020. I feel for all those that worked at the location. I'm going to miss those warm cookies.

We had a very nice stay at this hotel while in San Diego for two nights. Our room was not ready at the 4 p.m check-in time with the King size bed and balcony so they were offering us 2 queen size beds in same room with balcony instead. We decided to look at it but while looking at it another room room just like it was available to look at too. While looking at second room another room became available that actually had a king size bed with balcony right beside the room they were trying to offer us since our reserved in advance room was not ready. We took the King bed with balcony room. Getting our stuff up to third floor wasn’t bad. Service was nice and they offer room service which we did not use. We chose to eat in San Diego. No coffee maker in room which is a big disappointment to us. We were able to use room for photoshoot while there because rooms are nice. We enjoyed are stay in California and even went to a few beaches. We would probably choose another hotel next time we come back to California just to make our trip feel more different.

After nearly two weeks of traveling and staying in hotels that didn't live up to their ratings I knew that my trip would end on an upbeat because I was going to be at Hotel Karlan. Family members, who live in Stockholm, choose the Karlin for their San Diego vacation every July.
It exceeded my high expectations. The staff, the luxurious rooms, the spacious grounds, and the moderate rates all come together to make guests feel welcome and cared for. On the road, the best I can usually hope for is a clean bathroom and a comfortable bed. The Karlan bathrooms literally sparkle and the comfortable beds are enhanced by quality linen.
The location allows vacationers to avoid the crush of city traffic and is convenient to some top restaurants in North San Diego County.
