East Village
Downtown’s largest neighborhood encompassing 130 blocks, East Village burst into life in the past two years. The revitalization of this once blighted warehouse district was fueled primarily by the building of PETCO Park, the San Diego Padres’ state-of-the-art baseball stadium which opened in April 2004. Today, visitors can enjoy luxury hotels and restaurants, rooftop bars, cafes, boutique shops, galleries, and live music venues scattered throughout the neighborhood.
Hotels
The luxury 512-room Omni San Diego Hotel connects to PETCO Park via a pedestrian skywalk and offers stadium views from many of the rooms.
The San Diego Marriott Gaslamp Quarter offers 306 luxuriously-appointed guestrooms, many of which look directly into PETCO Park.
The 235-room Hotel Solamar, a Kimpton lifestyle hotel, serves as a "gateway" from the East Village to the historic Gaslamp Quarter.
Nightlife
Hotel Solamar’s LOUNGEsix, known as JBar to locals, is a rooftop oasis where sexy singles sip fresh fruit cocktails and lounge by a sparkling pool and roaring fire pits.
On the 22nd floor of the San Diego Marriott Gaslamp Quarter, Altitude offers guests breathtaking views of PETCO Park and the San Diego waterfront, along with music and martinis.
Restaurants
Jsix Restaurant in Hotel Solamar focuses on local seafood and farm-fresh ingredients from area growers.
Soleil @K, in the San Diego Marriott Gaslamp Quarter, serves delicious and innovative cuisines inspired by the culinary styles of California’s wine country, Napa Valley.
BASIC is an industrial lounge serving New Haven, Connecticut-style thin crust, brick oven pizzas and top-shelf cocktails.
A small, lively bistro, Café Chloe offers light French fare with substantial breakfasts, svelte lunches and dinners, and sophisticated bar-nibbles.
Shopping
