Pendry San Diego is the first Pendry hotel - the boutique luxury lifestyle brand by Montage Hotels & Resorts - a 12-story property in Downtown San Diego's historic Gaslamp Quarter that opened in 2017 on J Street between 5th and 6th Avenues. It has 317 surf-inspired rooms, a year-round rooftop pool, Lionfish coastal cuisine, and Nason's Beer Hall, two blocks from Petco Park. It deepens AC's San Diego cluster with the Gaslamp Quarter - the city's nightlife, convention, and ballpark district - alongside The US Grant on Broadway, Hotel del Coronado, Paradise Point on Mission Bay, La Valencia and the Lodge at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, and Cal-a-Vie in Vista. As the design-forward, energetic downtown option, it complements the historic US Grant; AC chauffeurs guests from the airport to the Gaslamp and across the county with a Black SUV waiting through the day.
The 317 guestrooms, including 36 suites, are designed with the city's beach and surf culture in mind - light, contemporary, and energetic. The headline amenity is the year-round heated rooftop pool and the Pool House, an open-air rooftop lounge with an indoor-outdoor aesthetic and city views. Dining and nightlife are a draw: Lionfish, the airy two-floor modern coastal seafood restaurant on 5th Avenue; Nason's Beer Hall for local craft beer, sports, and casual snacks; and the Fifth & Rose lobby bar. The Spa Pendry and a fitness center round out the wellness offering. It is the most contemporary and social of AC's San Diego anchors, in the heart of the Gaslamp's restaurants and clubs - and AC provides discreet arrivals, departures, and on-call chauffeur service for business, the Convention Center, and Petco Park.
Pendry sits at the southern end of the Gaslamp Quarter, San Diego's Victorian-era entertainment district. Petco Park, home of the Padres, is two blocks away; the San Diego Convention Center is three blocks; and the restaurants, rooftops, and clubs of 5th Avenue surround the hotel. The Embarcadero waterfront, the USS Midway Museum, Seaport Village, and the cruise terminal are a short walk west, and Little Italy, Balboa Park with its museums and the zoo, and Coronado are minutes away. AC's sibling San Diego anchors - The US Grant just up Broadway, Hotel del Coronado, Paradise Point, La Valencia, and the Lodge at Torrey Pines - are all within easy reach. AC builds a downtown San Diego chauffeur program for the ballpark, the Convention Center, and Gaslamp dining.
SAN San Diego International Airport (Lindbergh Field) is about 10 minutes from the Gaslamp - one of the shortest airport-to-hotel runs in California, just northwest along the harbor. AC meets guests at the airport and has them at the hotel in minutes. From SF Bay, an SFO-SAN flight plus the chauffeur is the routing, with frequent nonstops. Carlsbad-Palomar (CRQ) to the north serves general aviation and private jets use SAN's FBOs. Pendry San Diego pairs with AC's US Grant, Hotel del Coronado, Paradise Point, La Valencia, and the Lodge at Torrey Pines for a San Diego tour, and AC positions vehicles at SAN for the Gaslamp, the Convention Center, Petco Park, and downtown business and nightlife.
