I had originally been to the Island Palms for business and stayed at the Island Palms for 10 days in January 2008 and found the Junior Suite to be very comfortable, the room service was excellent and the hotel restaurant had great food. The New York Steak was excellent!
I recently returned to San Diego April 25, 26, 2008, and stayed at the Island Palms hotel with family and friends as we made it a weekend get away in San Diego to go to Sea World, for the kids on Saturday and then Legoland on Sunday. My family and friends are very particular about hotels and they all loved it, which says a lot of good things about the Island Palms. They found the Jr. Suite hotel rooms to be excellent and of great value, the room service was great and the food was very good. The cookies at the front desk were, warm and fresh and a great touch, especially for those of us "big kids" that love cookies as much as the "little kids" do. Also, the pool and jacuzzi were a great "reliever" at night, where we could relax and unwind, after walking around Seaworld all day.
All my family and friends enjoyed it so much, that we plan on making it a yearly event. When we plan to go back to San Diego, we would without a doubt stay at the Island Palms again.
