When you step inside the bathroom at the Sè San Diego, you might panic when you see a member of the opposite sex, thinking you accidentally went into the wrong bathroom. Don't worry, no one will think you're a perv; the San Diego hotel has a unisex bathroom.
The striking coed washroom—with its walls, ceiling and floor covered in rolled granite inlaid with Lucite and waterfall sinks—has its pluses and minuses. ]]>
Comic-Con may not be until July, but if you Trekkies, Twi-Hards—yes, the Breaking Dawn cast is rumored to be making an appearance—or other assorted geeks want a hotel anywhere near the San Diego Convention Center, get ready to plant yourself in front of the computer. Online reservations to the the largest comics and pop-culture convention on the continent open March 9.
Comic-Con's discounted hotel rooms go faster than free Scott Pilgrim swag, so it's important to book yours asap. Sure, a free shuttle runs between the convention center and conference hotels, but your best bet is to grab a hotel as close to the sci-fi scene as possible. ]]>
Comic-Con will land in San Diego next week from July 21 to 25, and while geeks all over the country are excited to attend and see J.J. Abrams, Joss Whedon, Ray Bradbury and Neal Adams, what's not so exciting is trying to book a hotel near the event.
Most of the hotels near the Comic-Con site have sold out, but there are still options for late comers to the sci-fi party. But book 'em now, because they likely will go faster than you can say "fanboy."]]>
San Diego's super-touristy Old Town neighborhood has as many kitschy shops as it does joints boasting to have the city's best margaritas. So it's no surprise that the spot that calls itself the birthplace of California is full of budget hotels. But a new boutique option, the Cosmopolitan Hotel, will open in June.
The Cosmo isn't exactly new. It's a restoration of a 183-year-old hotel. Originally the home to pioneer Juan Bandini, the building was converted into a hotel in 1869. Now, the Cosmo sits in a prime spot in Old Town San Diego State Historic Park that's surrounded by restaurants and shops. ]]>
