Our Pacific Beach Hotel

all round great experience def recommend. the outside area was super clean, rooms were right next to the beach. Thank you so much to Jim, you run this place to its excellency. from the start i felt welcomed by Isabella while checking in to checking out with Marwa both are the loveliest human beings ever. Patty is amazing she helped me get back into my room and was so helpful in all aspects. Thank you to the cleaning staff, the room was supper tidy. great experience overall would return!

Newly Renovated rooms and suites, steps from the beach! Diamond Head Inn is a hidden gem in Pacific Beach. This ocean front hotel offers a luxury location at a fraction of the price, with a friendly staff, and very clean newly remodeled and refreshed rooms (remodeled 2026)! Suites at Diamond Head Inn are well worth the price; with some rooms offering a kitchen, living room and separate bedroom (approx 450 sqft)! It was perfect for our extended stay and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for the best value in Pacific Beach; without the brand name hotel-chain price. If you want to stay in the heart of the action, in a highly walkable location along the beach boardwalk, Crystal Pier, Palisade South Park and Tourmaline Surfing Park, Diamond Head Inn is perfect for you!

Our stay at Diamond Head with suite 108 was fantastic, you will not find better value for location, condition, and walkability! Pet friendly! Only a few steps to boardwalk or beach. Friendly staff and management!

Clean room, great location (of course). The only thing you won’t like is the parking, there is none. You will have to fight for a spot on the street somewhere. Good luck.

First time in San Diego and glad I chose this spot. Came in early to drop off bags and by chance the staff checked and saw the room was ready. Overall great service from all the staff. Only steps from the beach and walking distance to nearby bars and restaurants. Room itself was far better than what I expected. Water pressure was great, bed was clean, not a single stain on anything and no odor - this would be one of the best hotel stays I've had. Only negative is that the pool at their sister hotel isn't heated but this trip was in February so can't complain about that. Would recommend to others and if the price is still good, would book this again.

Location was perfect. I guess I would’ve liked to have an oven as well, But the stovetop managed. Just didn’t get to cook my banana bread that I was going to leave as a parting gift. Thus is life. Good stay.

Diamond Head is my absolute favorite place to stay! Beach access is literally a hop and skip away! Only down fall is parking is a pain once you find a spot I suggest door dash or walk to your favorite food spot.

Perfect location, friendly staff. Would definitely stay here again

Very clean, Amelia and staff were great!

Jim, Vanessa, Rebecca.. front office staff that I met were all very friendly and helpful, same experiences with several of the cleaning crew, genuinely nice and helpful staff! You can tell they care about the customer. Location is perfect in PB. Everything is near and you can take the boardwalk anywhere.. I know I live down the street but needed a place while it’s being remediated and landed at the Blue Head Inn. Rooms are a great size. Could use a freshening up but the bedding, mattresses, and pillows are like new! I always check before I lay my head :)
