About us
InterContinental San Diego offers sophistication on the downtown waterfront. With an inimitable location at BRIC and 400 guestrooms, the hotel exudes both the liveliness of San Diego’s most vibrant neighborhoods and the soothing embrace of the bay. Host memorable events of any size and influence in 95,000 square feet of space, including 60,000 square feet of outdoor settings in the form of water view terraces and historic Lane Field Park. Inside, 35,000 square feet of meeting rooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows that allow Southern California’s sunshine to illuminate and inspire. Elegance meets the laid-back spirit of San Diego in 400 guestrooms, every one of which frames water views through full length windows. Modern amenities such as Keurigs and built-in USB chargers complement marble bathrooms, cozy robes and other luxe touches. 24 panoramic suites gaze towards the horizon of the Pacific, accented by a wet bar, plush living room and premium amenities like a Nespresso and soaking tub. Bask in San Diego’s warm rays on the rooftop pool deck, or greet the day with sun salutations on the wellness center’s yoga terrace. Drink in water views from five distinctive dining venues overlooking San Diego Bay, including signature restaurant Vistal, Garibaldi, Mastros Ocean Club, Seneca Trattoria 19th floor rooftop Italian Restaurant, and our Layover pool bar. The exclusive Club InterContinental® lounge also offers tailored menus and services in an intimate setting for one-on-one meetings.

Palihotel San Diego
San Diego
A charming, coastal-inspired urban lodge in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter
Palisociety reimagines the historic Hotel St. James, originally built in 1912, into Palihotel San Diego, a vibrant and bustling mainstay located in the heart of San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter. Featuring 122 guest rooms, Palihotel San Diego brings a youthful, design-centric offering to San Diego’s hotel landscape, showcasing a preppy, nautical-inspired charm, a new restaurant, and a guest-exclusive roof deck offering drinks, light bites, and the best views of the city.
Palihotel San Diego features Saint James French Diner, a restaurant and bar that blends the utilitarian nature of an American diner with the subtle elegance of French bistro cuisine. Serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch, the menu is hearty and simple, yet refined by nature, paying homage to roadside food halls in Southern France. It’s shared mussels and a beer in the afternoon and it’s a burger and two martinis at night. It’s sensible, unpretentious, and totally chic.
Warm, charming, and jovial, this historic hotel and its dining spaces are ideal for intimate soirées, post-convention cocktail hours, private dining, and more.
We look forward to welcoming you!
