Hilton San Diego Bayfront

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hilton San Diego Bayfront is an under construction hotel located in Downtown, San Diego, California that will open in Fall 2008. It is located directly adjacent to the San Diego Convention Center, along the San Diego Bay. The thirty story tower hotel features 1,190 guest rooms and more than 165,000 square feet of meeting space[1], making it the hotel with the highest ratio of meeting space to hotel rooms in the downtown area.[2].

The Hilton San Diego Bayfront is located only "0.39 miles", according to mapquest, from the Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, which is directly across Harbor Drive from Convention Center.
