Best Places to Stay for the Attractions

Each of these locations provides a unique experience, so whether you're after the excitement of the city, the tranquillity of a beachside stay, or the historical charm of Balboa Park, San Diego has something to offer every traveller!

1

Mission Bay Area

The best place to stay for SeaWorld is the Mission Bay area, which is just a short drive from the park. This location offers a more relaxed, beachy vibe, with plenty of family-friendly hotels and resorts. You’ll have easy access to SeaWorld, as well as other attractions like Mission Beach and Pacific Beach. If you prefer to stay somewhere a bit more lively, the Gaslamp Quarter is also a great option, offering vibrant nightlife and dining, although it’s a bit farther from SeaWorld.

2

Balboa Park

For San Diego Zoo, the ideal place to stay is Balboa Park. The zoo is located within Balboa Park, so you’ll be just steps away from the entrance. Staying here means you can also easily explore the park’s other attractions, such as the San Diego Natural History Museum, The Old Globe Theatre, and beautiful gardens. If you’d like a broader range of accommodation options, the Gaslamp Quarter is a short drive away and offers an exciting urban atmosphere.

3

Escondido area

The best location to stay for the San Diego Safari Park is in the Escondido area, which is closest to the park, about a 30-minute drive from downtown San Diego. Escondido offers a quieter, more suburban environment with a selection of hotels, restaurants, and parks. If you prefer a bit more hustle and bustle, the Old Town area, located around 30 minutes away, offers charming accommodations with plenty of local character, though it’s farther from the Safari Park itself.

San Diego Hotel Offers

San Diego is well-served by the San Diego International Airport (SAN), which is the primary hub for international and domestic flights. Located just 3 miles from downtown, it’s incredibly convenient for visitors. The airport is modern, with easy access to transport options, making your arrival smooth and stress-free.

San Diego operates on Pacific Time (PST/PDT), which is 8 hours behind the UK (GMT). So, when it’s 12 PM in London, it’s 4 AM in San Diego. Keep this in mind when planning calls, events, or just adjusting to the time difference during your travels!
