NEIGHBORHOOD

Experience San Diego LIKE A LOCAL

Alma rises above the historic Gaslamp Quarter and offers sweeping views of San Diego’s best neighborhoods. We’re a ten-minute car ride from the San Diego International Airport, and just steps away from the chic shops in Little Italy, the walking trails dotting Balboa Park and the latest exhibits at the Museum of Us. Take our custom-designed PUBLIC bikes down to the harbor to watch the ships and work up an appetite. Back at Alma, any of our local hosts can point you to their favorite secret taco joint or hiking trail to cap off the perfect day by the coast. We’re proud to say that our downtown San Diego hotel is in the heart of it all, surrounded by the best that ‘America’s finest city’ has to offer.
