A European style hotel and hostel located in an historic building, the 500 West Hotel in San Diego offers guests a unique, affordable place to stay.

Their modern accommodations span over 250 rooms, and the majority of the rooms include a beautiful view of the San Diego harbor, downtown, or the Johnson Hall Courtyard located within hotel grounds. Even if the hotel wasn't centrally located in the heart of San Diego, you'd want to stay for the accommodations alone. They are unlike anything you're likely to experience in most of the hotels in San Diego.

Following the European theme, the 500 West offers sixteen private shared bathrooms, including unisex bathrooms on every floor. If you're worried about sharing a bathroom with other guests, don't be; everything is maintained 24/7 and privacy is guaranteed with locks on every door and a roomy shower for your convenience.

With four types of rooms available, the hotel aims to accommodate visitors of every budget. Choose from a double room, single twin, double twin or a dorm room.

In true European style, the hotel doubles as a hostel on the second floor for budget-minded travelers who want to experience San Diego, but can't afford the pricier boutique options.

Guests at the 500 West Hotel will enjoy amazing accommodations in the heart of San Diego. The rooms are, quite possibly, the best feature of this combination hotel and hostel and should be enjoyed simply for that reason alone.
