Pier South Resort, Autograph Collection By Marriott

“You have to try this place”

I average 125 nights a year at Marriott properties and Pier South, SD Marquise, and Ko Olina are my favorites. I have stayed at Pier South 20 times over the last two years and my ocean front rooms are just perfect. I have never experienced any smells, and I don’t go there to enter the beach but rat… lisää

I average 125 nights a year at Marriott properties and Pier South, SD Marquise, and Ko Olina are my favorites. I have stayed at Pier South 20 times over the last two years and my ocean front rooms are just perfect. I have never experienced any smells, and I don’t go there to enter the beach but rather to relax at a true beach front property. They have a great happy hour led by the wonderful Sharron and if I check in with Barron behind the front desk I feel so welcomed. If you skip the roof top area or breakfast you are missing out.

“Pier South -- a relaxing oasis while visiting San Diego”

We recently stayed at Pier South for the second time this year to celebrate our anniversary and take in a concert with our son in nearby San Diego. There is never a bad time to be in San Diego, but the fall is exceptionally lovely and our stay at Pier South was very relaxing. The nightly reception on the rooftop though a bit chillier temp than it was in April was lovely thanks to the amazing lady who manages it. She even provided blankets for guests as the temps dipped. The view was still spectacular. The sound of the ocean never gets old! I have read reviews where other guests have mentioned lack of cleanliness etc. For both of our stays, we did not experience that. Bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom is very spacious - good water pressure in the shower. The only thing we don't like about the rooms is that the front door while very stylish and cool looking - lets in a lot of light at night. If you are a light sleeper like my husband, you really notice it. Would be nice to have the option of a discreet shade that rolled down from the top of the door if wanted. Also, the pull out bed was freshly made, but there was not an extra blanket in the closet nor enough towels in the bathroom for a third guest. Not a big deal but we discovered very late and when you're tired you just don't feel like going downstairs at midnight to find a blanket. Staff at Pier South is very professional and friendly. We recommend paying for the valet parking. It can be difficult to find street parking close enough to the hotel. Toast is their onsite restaurant. Delicious continental breakfast provided to guests. We recommend the lavender mimosa. Note: the service was very, very slow this stay. Perhaps they were short staffed or understaffed in kitchen. But it took much longer than it should have to bring out yogurt, and gave us pause to consider eating there in future. Overall, Pier South while pricey is a great place to stay. You are definitely out a ways from the San Diego scene, but the beach is great and you can see Mexico in the distance when you're walking. Lots of cool bars and restaurants nearby. Just a great vibe. We hope to stay there again in the future.

“Nice visit and property.”

First time we stayed here. It’s a Marriott property but there are few outward signs showing it is. Ocean view from the restaurant and bar are limited unless one is seated outside. With a slightly better design both would have been exceptional. The personnel were great and accommodating and the ocean view room was a real ocean view unlike other hotels. Evening rooftop reception was exceptional as is was the time of year that coincided with sunset. The area is great with many restaurants within walking distance. The only complaint is the beach is closed due to sewage treatment issues from Tijuana, MX. This is not mentioned on the site though there is a “Check beach conditions” flag on the site that, if clicked, takes one to the SD county site that’s has an ominous warning. My understanding this is a permanent condition as the beach has not been open for years. I took one star off for that. If possible I would only have taken a 1/2 star off.
