Hotel Zindel was the best stay! Perfectly located near restaurants and bars. Little Italy was amazing walking the streets, trying local dishes, and enjoying the nightlife was a highlight. Stephanie at the front desk was friendly, bubbly, and super attentive. Loved the complimentary weekend wine too! Can’t wait to come back!

You owe it to yourself to stay here! The service, the cleanliness, the whole experience was absolutely incredible. I have seen reviews that address the parking situation, but we didn’t take a vehicle, so that was no issue for us. There is a coffee machine that has many options to choose from, snacks, and a pool table in the lounge area. You do share a bathroom, but we had absolutely no issues at all with access to it. The bathroom is exceptionally clean, very modern and beautiful. The rooms are so cozy and relaxing. Although we were super close tot he airport and traffic, we heard absolutely nothing. Very tranquil. We will be staying here again when we go back to San Diego. We loved it!

I was very surprised with the quality and the price, I got a deal on Expedia and only paid $50 for one night. It was beautiful, quiet, and it was nice once you turned on the A/C and huge fan above the bed, the private bathroom was clean with modern but classic look to it and was very beautiful all around. Outside the room there was the main entrance with their waterfall and off to the side a lounge area with complimentary snacks a coffee station ready to go for those that need to get out early and fast like me for flights. I would definitely recommend this to anyone traveling or just wanting to adventure while visiting San Diego. Its also great for those with social anxiety because everything is self serve and done through text. 10/10 recommended and will return.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. It was a prime location in the Little Italy area of San Diego and we enjoyed walking to dinner, the farmer’s market and the game at the baseball stadium. This is the perfect place for the right visitor. We had a great conversation with Rich, who let us know that the hotel was recently renovated and he asked for our input on what they could do better. It was nice to see that they care about the opinions and want to improve. We let him know that there was a glitch in the process because we booked the hotel through a third-party that they haven’t had a lot of traffic from, so we didn’t receive our codes to enter the hotel. He let us know he would work to solve that issue. When we arrived, we called the number listed and originally no one answered. We received a text that they were sorry they missed our call and asked how they could help. The staff was able to assist us and we enjoyed our stay. The shared common areas are beautifully modern and they had some simple breakfast items to grab on the go (oatmeal, fruit, pre-packaged pastries, etc.) Please be aware that not all of the rooms have their own bathroom, but when you have a shared bathroom, you have your own code to access the bathroom, one person at a time. The floor felt a little dirty and the provided toiletries were watered down but got the job done. Please also be aware that there is no parking designated to this hotel, but we did not have any issues finding parking along the nearby streets at no cost. I loved that there were quiet hour signs posted and it was relatively quiet other than the closing of hotel doors and the downtown traffic sounds. They provided ear plugs and white noise machines which definitely were a plus. The location, atmosphere, and general cleanliness of this hotel made it the best option in this location for its price point.

I stayed at Hotel Zindel during Comic Con weekend and had an absolute blast! The location couldn’t have been better—it’s right in the heart of downtown, which made getting to and from the convention super convenient. The hotel itself was clean, stylish, and had great energy all weekend long. The housekeepers were so friendly and always greeted me warmly. A big shoutout to Stephanie at the front desk she was a total sweetheart and incredibly accommodating. She made everything feel so welcoming and easy. only downside is no parking and limited snacks but overall great stay.

Hotel Zindel is an amazing and convenient spot, especially if you're looking to stay near little Italy. it's a smaller hotel, but very comfortable and cozy but has no parking. everyone was great, but Stephanie at the front desk was wonderful! she was super friendly, welcoming and went out of her way to help us get settled into our room. Highly recommend!

Perfect European style hotel. It was strange at first, to become accustom to tech sign in for the hotel, rooms and bathroom, but once I got used to it, it was fine. Stephanie and Emily were fantastic, and you were responsive to all communications. Cleaners were also friendly. Nicely appointed rooms. Lived the outdoor patio. Reasonable price. Bathroom and shower clean and updated. Fridge in the room was nice touch too. Saw others enjoyed the billiards and mini kitchen. within a five minute walk to everywhere I wanted to be. Definitely will stay here again and recommend two friends

The room was super cute. The vibes were everything! We were in a suite so there was a living and kitchenette. Had friends over for games and drinks and they loved the room too. Think luxury hipster chic. The fire pits welcome gathering and meeting new folks since it is a mixed unit property (hostel style and private suites).Close to many attractions, restaurants, and lounges. Appreciated the contactless check in. Only issue was no on-site parking, kinda crazy for this area. Would def stay here again .

This is a hostel not a hotel, like others I misinterpreted due to the name. Location is convenient. Room was clean. Bathroom is communal. There's a nice fire pit and waterfall area when you enter. Wasn't a bad stay, wasn't what I thought it would be.

If you are visiting San Diego, you need to check out the hotel Zinder It has a modern fun vibe, spacious rooms, and contactless check in! Hotel Zindel is right in the heart of little Italy with a short walk to all the best restaurants. We checked out @buonappetitogroup for dinner and @loftycoffeeco for breakfast, and it was all walking distance from the hotel! Come check out Hotel Zindel for your next vacation!

My boyfriend and I recently spent a weekend at Hotel Zindel in Little Italy, San Diego. Although I wasn't initially informed about the shared bathroom arrangement, we were pleasantly surprised to find that each unit had its own bathroom. However, we would have preferred a room with a private bathroom. Communication with the hotel was electronic, and we received a code for our room, which was convenient, but some guests experienced issues with getting locked out. Our room was spacious, clean, and had a comfortable bed. The only drawback was the lack of a vending machine for water or snacks, but fortunately, there's a 7-Eleven nearby.

Stayed here this past weekend, Place is more like an Airbnb they give you access code for the main gate and your room itself. You have a shared bathroom with all the other units just depending on your unit which I wasn't aware about and made my stay pretty uncomfortable. The main door to enter to your units is ridiculously loud. You can hear it slam and shake your door all night, it woke us up all night. The Room over all is pretty small just your bed and mini fridge and miniature sink for your hands. It was a nice room but I don't think I'll stay here again.

Not a hotel. This is a hostel. Terrible customer service. Do not book here. I canceled right when we got there due to the dirty shared bathroom and you have to code in to every door. I'm mean every door. I asked about my refund and they said I have to get it from the booking company. The booking company said I have to get it back from them. Total bs from the get go. Do yourself a favor and never stay here

Do not book this hotel! They will sell your room and then try to upsell you. I booked through Expedia. The day of my arrival I was told they sold my bed but they could give me another for a higher price. Scam!!!

Hostel not a hotel. Read the fine print. Room was great (although we moved as the first one faced a brick wall with no daylight), with soft sheets and a comfy bed. We didn't have a sink like someone else did. We had a shared bathroom. That's a hostel, not a hotel.
