Month: January 2018

In the belly of bustling downtown San Diego sits the AAA Four Diamond Westin Gaslamp Quarter hotel. It’s all about location, location, location!  The Gaslamp in one of THE hottest spots in this SoCal city. Night life and day life abound! And it’s all steps away from the hotel. Balboa Theater was a vaudeville palace in the 1920’s, went into ruins decades later, and was resurrected recently and is now an architectural beauty with premier cultural events. Shows run the gamut from Mozart to Bonnie Rate, or a chef demonstration by Ina Gardner and TV tapings of Last Comic Standing.  (0.1 miles from hotel) "Se habla fresh!” Puesto Restaurant has fancy MX street food so authentic you’d think it was made south of the border.  As you sit on the patio of the chic fiestaria sipping margaritas, you'll feel breezes and hear seagull's sing from the nearby San Diego Harbor. Salud! (0.6 miles from hotel) The Shout! House dueling pianos is SOOO fun! Face to face pianos sit center stage with wildly talented players who jam for hours. The audience not only watches, they participate by singing and dancing on top of the behemoths!  (0.6 miles from hotel) Oui, more s'il vous plaît! Le Tropezienne pastry at Le Parfait Paris is just one of the unbelievable selection. The display case has milles-feuilles and macarons arranged like Tiffany’s organizes their diamonds and pearls. Forgo any semblance of a diet when you’re here. You can fast later. (0.5 miles from hotel). Grab an eco-friendly bike rental after your pastry splurge and pedal around the city until your heart’s content! There’s multiple pick up and drop off locations, but the closest to the Westin Hotel is at G St. & 2nd Ave. (0.5 miles from hotel) Karaoke and tacos every Tuesday at Werewolf American
