Staybridge Suites San Diego Rancho Bernardo Area

The rooms are semi clean, other people’s hair still in the shower and walls. The couch had white stains on it which, ew. But the beds… Worst beds ever

I can’t say enough about how friendly the staff is. The manager went out of his way to make us comfortable and welcome. The room was very clean and felt like home. Rooms come with a full kitchen, tv in the bedroom and living room, free wifi, and an excellent breakfast in the morning. The amenities are nice as well. We will be coming back!

Es uno de los mejores para despues de mi jornada de 12 horas de trabajo.
Llegar a un hotel comodo, con habitaciones en muy buenas condiciones, sin ruido, es fenomenal descansar en camas comodas.
Sin duda recomiendo este hotel, el personal del mostrador es amable y resuelve todas tus dudas.

Just arrived and my experience has been amazing right from the start. Robert, from the front desk, was really friendly and helpful. The room is spacious and clean. Overall a really good experience.

Just a couple of wacky ladies trying to escape crazy LA on July 4^th weekend. This place felt like a home away from home. Except maybe better with the free breakfast… mmm…waffles.
Our stay started with a friendly smile from Kody who helped us get the perfect room, patiently listening to our yammering as he worked through technical difficulties. Yay! We were set! The double beds we’d wanted were ours!
Except boo… I forgot my toiletry bag at home. I called in to ask the front desk if they had a toothbrush. Yay! I got a really nice toothbrush and toothpaste set… and…he wouldn’t take the tip I tried to hand him… as if to say «You’re home.» What an amazing way to welcome guests! We were smiling throughout our whole weekend stay.
The whole living space was fully appointed, including a kitchen complete with microwave, dishwasher, plates, and silverware. I’d started to picture actually living at our hotel.
Wacky and wonderful weekend staycation. Of course I’d stay there again.

Absolutely amazing. The staff could not have been friendlier. Even when I came in after a long night of work at two in the morning they were accommodating, nice, and welcoming. They had on site gym and laundry services that I took advantage of. One of the great perks was the breakfast which I enjoyed both days I was there. For a free breakfast it was unbelievable. They had eggs, bacon, sausage, cereal, coffee, milk anything I could think of. I will definitely be going back there!

Where do I start with this wonderful property? This is easily the most accommodating I have ever been to. From the moment I arrived (at 2:30am mind you) every employee was extremely polite and every hotel policy was designed to make my stay comfortable and as close to a stay at home as possible.
The front desk attendant checked me in quickly and politely and then even gave me a little free toothpaste since I’d forgot mine. And then, the room was perfect. A living space, a full kitchen, a big bathroom and sink space, great heating and cooling, and a bunch of TV channels including HBO.
Some of the other highlights were: GREAT continental breakfast with waffles, eggs, and ham in addition to the standard stuff, a beautiful patio with a fireplace, a really nice pool with comfortable seating, a sport court with a great basketball hoop, and NOON CHECKOUT!
This place is great and you should definitely stay here. I give it my highest recommendation.

Really enjoyed my stay here. The guy at reception was super friendly and nice at welcoming my friends and I. Checked into a double queen bed with a kitchen. There’s two flat screen tv with cable. The kitchen was nice but it was very cramp with a dish washer, microwave, coffee maker, utensil, fridge and stove. Overall would come here again.

My fiancé and I had a very nice stay with our dog. It’s hard to believe the room was pet friendly as nice/​clean as it was. Very modern. It was a 2 bedroom suite with a common area, three TV sets, a kitchen. Plus the building had a basketball court, pool and free breakfast. Very helpful staff and a great hotel not far (maybe 20 min) from the beach and other touristy stuff. I recommend La Jolla Cliffs during the afternoon, gorgeous spot with sea lions.

Compared to an Embassey suite, this hotel exceeded all expectations. We stayed in the two bedroom suite with kitchen. I loved that each room had its own tv and the kitchen had everything and anything you needed. We had to go and get ice from an employee, but was told our fridge had an ice machine (ours did not work). The hotel check in employee was very nice and friendly.
The overall pros: great value for everything you get.
Cons: breakfast was not as great compared to an Embassey suite.
Yes, I would recommend this hotel to family and Friends.

It was not easy finding an affordable hotel in SD for your 4-​legged child. Staybridge doesn’t require a deposit or cleaning fee. They only charge $ 15 extra. Staff is friendly, for the most part. The rooms are big, spacious, clean and comfortable. AC was on strong. However, the corridor was stuffy and had a smell. Overall, it pleasantly surprised me, and we, including our dog, would stay here again.

They don’t have all the fancy amenities and entertainment that some higher end hotels have (spa, restaurant), but they have all the amenities needed to make your stay comfortable and homey as extended stay hotels should be. Plus you don’t need to pay extra for them, unlike at many other hotels. Pets are also allowed! $ 15 the first night and $ 10 for each night afterward for your furry friends.
We booked a queen room and it was modern and clean. It was like living in a studio, complete with a «living room» (sofa + TV + tables) and full service kitchen. All rooms come with a full service kitchen, which I didn’t need in my case, but it’s pretty cool to have. Ice maker is in the fridge, so no wandering down the hallway to get ice. I thought it was cool how they had a little guide and directory book with lists of things to do and even simple recipes for people who want to cook.
There are sooo many complimentary amenities here that I just have to list them:
–Free wifi: A major plus for me!
— Social hour: They have complimentary snacks and refreshments every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights for social hour!
— Breakfast buffet: Everyday. Weekends 7:30AM-10:30AM, weekdays 6:30AM-9:30AM. They have a wide variety of breakfast items to choose from, but the hot food isn’t prepared on site because I don’t think they have a full kitchen. The hot food is more like frozen or pre-​prepared food that’s heated up, but it’s still decent. I kind of doubt they rotate the menu.
–Free movie/​book library
–Free printing and computer use
–Pool
–Free laundry
–Exercise room and basketball hoop
Those are the complimentary amenities I can think of off the top of my head, but I still find them pretty amazing. They also have a ²⁴⁄₇ convenience store. The front desk was really friendly and helpful. It’s just a cozy feeling overall staying here. The hotel itself is located in a nice business area and is close to a lot of shopping and restaurants. Totally convenient for those staying long term. Also close to the freeway. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay in another IHG hotel in the future.

Stayed here for a nearby conference. We like having a kitchenette very much. Our suite was fine, the grounds fine for what it is. Quiet, adequate free breakfast, and fine happy hours. A little far from San Diego for tourists though. There’s a Costco steps away so we did a little shopping too. The small workout room was fine. We would stay again.

I was relocating from Pittsburgh, PA to southern California for a new job in San Diego, CA. I needed an extended-​stay solution (45 – 90 days which ended up being 98 days total — March-​June, 2014) during the transition. Sam McGruder helped me with my reservation and maintained contact with me during my entire stay. Managers Nicole Price and Scott Griffin were always available and ready to assist. In addition, Ed (at the front desk), well, it is obvious he is there to serve. He is simply a wonderful person. Sincerely, I think everyone there was friendly and genuine and they always greeted me by name. I know I’m sure to miss someone, but I don’t want to miss Alex, Frank, Karolina, and Kostana. I didn’t catch the name of the gal that managed breakfast over the last month or so, but she was FABULOUS!
One thing that Staybridge Suites San Diego Rancho Bernardo Area doesn’t advertise (and I don’t know why) is their free evening social every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday which includes dinner, dessert, soft drinks, wine, beer and Saki… did I mention it’s FREE. Alex is an EXCELLENT host for the evening social. Social dinners typically include a salad, rice, snack chips, and veggies. Entrees include a baked potato bar with choice toppings, burgers, brats, hot dogs, chili, baked beans, quesadilla, pizza, chicken, soup, etc…
Now, they do advertise free breakfast, but they don’t tell you that it’s terrific and that the entrée changes daily, 7-​days a week. The staples are coffee, juice, milk, yogurt, a choice of 6 dry cereals, oatmeal, breads, bagels and English muffins, a morning pastry (such as coffee cake, muffins, pound cake, Danish, croissant, etc.), fresh fruit (apples, bananas, oranges, melon), hard boiled eggs, steamed rice and nori. The entrees can include scramble eggs, chorizo scramble eggs, hash, egg/​cheese omelets, egg patties (for breakfast sandwich), bacon, sausage, roasted onions and peppers, pancakes, French toast sticks, etc.
The rooms are well appointed, spacious and comfortable. I found the bed and bedding to be at my desired firmness/​softness. I did not care for the bed pillows much, too soft, and therefore needed to used several, but to be fair, I’m picky ab out my pillows. The A/​C unit was awesome and other than the sound of the blower, made no irritating noise. I found good water pressure and hot water whenever I needed it. Each unit has a full-​size fridge w/​icemaker, microwave, induction cooktop, dishwasher and ample cabinetry. They provide dishwashing liquid and powder for the dishwasher, as well as dish towel/​cloth, dishes, glassware, pots/​pans, silverware, can opener, corkscrew, veg peeler, toaster, coffee maker (with coffees and teas), salt, pepper, sugar and creamer packets, microwave popcorn, paper towels, shampoo, conditioner, hand and body bar soap, and lotion. Other than needing to buy some plastic wrap and Ziplocs, they provided everything I required. The closet is spacious and comes with several hangers. Given I was there for 98 days; I needed to purchase a few more.
— They also offer a free laundry equipped with five washers and five dryers that are always functioning.
— You can purchase laundry soap pods at the front desk for $ 1.
— The onsite pool is heated ²⁴⁄₇ at a lovely temperature and was always clean.
— They have a half-​size basketball court, with basketballs available at the front desk.
— There is a fire pit, and BBQ grills and outdoor seating as well.
— Parking is free and the lot well lit.
— Designated Pet Areas with supplies.
The physical location offers easy access to everything — shopping, dining, interstates, and entertainment. The location is quiet — no real street noise except for an occasional fire truck siren.
NOTE: While I was there, San Diego experienced several brush fires. The Staybridge staff was prepared and very reassuring. I noticed several SoCal Firemen on site during this time. I felt VERY safe.
During the last week or so of my stay, my husband, son and my two dogs (Spencer and Zoey) joined me, and the staff welcomed them all with the same inviting demeanor and care.
Having been separated from my family and pets during this transition, Staybridge felt like a home away from home. The only other time I have seen such offerings was at a high-​end timeshare.
Exceptional,

Love love love my stays here. The staff is personable. Their service is great. If we have a complaint or are unhappy with our room they move us as quickly as possible and apologize for the inconvenience. The rooms are clean and well kept. The kitchen is always a plus. Love having a fridge and dishes and a stovetop. The pool is always heated and clean and refreshing on any day. My go to place for mini vacations when I’ve got lots of work to get done and family location.

stayed here just for a night to have a little staycation away from home and i wish that we stayed longer.
The room was upgraded and modernized with a full kitchen, fridge and dishwasher. This room was seriously made for those staying here long term.
Place was clean, comfortable and not to noisy. We heard an occasional bark here and there for guest who brought their dogs with them but nothing that kept us up at night.
In the morning they provide a hot breakfast which was so-​so. The eggs looked like they were a soup instead.
Other than that, checking in and out was easy.

March 2013 was my busy wedding month. And being a busy bride I didn’t want to have to do a lot of thinking or planning of the little things. My wedding venue suggested I contact Staybridge about a place to get ready with my hair and makeup stylists and bridal party. Staybridge was a hop, skip and a jump away from my venue.
I was put in touch with Sam. And If I could have an extra column to give Sam a set of stars I would give him 10. He was so nice and accommodating to my every need. He set aside a huge suite for me and my bridal party to get ready in the morning of, made sure we had champagne and orange juice fully stocked so we could relax AND he offered me the room the room the night before so I could be well rested before my big day all at no charge! I fully expected and was willing to pay a well deserved fee, but Sam would not have it. All he wanted was for me to have the best day of my life and know that he had a hand in helping that come true.
Everything was clean, comfortable and welcoming. I highly recommend this hotel to out of town guests. There are many major restaurants right around the corner as well.

Wonderful hotel… spacious rooms with two bathrooms in the two bedroom suite! Great for families.

Very nice hotel, friendly check in folks, very spacious rooms as well and awesome location.
Opportunity-​better breakfast. Not impressed at all.

Wow. I knew this hotel had good reviews and they proved to me why that was during my stay. I was moving to Florida and needed a place to stay. I would choose this hotel over any other one.
The front desk was very informative and greeted me as soon as I walked in. The check in process was fast, smooth and I had no trouble at all (which can happen often with any hotel).
When I got inside my room, I was very impressed with how clean and organized it was. There was lots of natural light which I liked too. I didn’t feel like I was in a hotel or a classroom, it was more like in my own apartment. TV in all rooms, fully stocked with towels, silverware, dishes, everything. I was very comfortable staying there.
The breakfast is more than just the standard continental and had a lot of variety. This made it a lot easier to enjoy my stay. If I didn’t want to leave I wouldn’t have to.
Every time I left the hotel staff said goodbye and was sure to acknowledge me. The sales manager I worked with exceeded my expectations and made sure everything would be taken care of. I imagine that would be the same for everyone he works with.
Checkout was a breeze too. I had no troubles and would definitely be back the next time I need a place to stay. I’ve been in and out of hotels and Staybridge Suites are my favorite.

Short Version: This is now THE place we stay whenever we are in the San Diego area. No question.
Long Version:
I have an affinity with San Diego. I had customers in SD. I have family in SD. Over the past 10 years, I’ve been to SD a half dozen times. In one of my previous visits, I stayed here for proximity to work. I was amazed then. Since then, I’ve returned twice and was able to re-​confirm my experience. My last stay here was this past spring break (March 2013).
Three of us (wife, 10-​year-​old, and myself) had a 2 full-​size bed suite, non-​smoking, booked a good 3 months in advance. We arrived at night. Check in was speedy. The suite was clean. The kitchen has everything. All the appliances were functioning properly. Internet access was included and easy to established.
We stayed for 9 nights. Due to the long stay, we opted to not have full house keeping everyday. Every night we return, they replenish only what’s needed, made the beds, and left everything as they were. It is nice to be able to treat the suite as home away from home without the constant reminders we are being invaded everyday.
Most of the mornings we went down to enjoy the included breakfast bar. I enjoyed the hot items such as bacon/​sausages/​eggs and oat meal. My daughter loved the variety of cereal and cake. My wife loved the self service Belgium waffle iron. I also had my fill of fresh coffee every morning to keep up with my caffeine habit.
A couple times we needed to wash clothes and were happy to discover that the laundry was free. My daughter also discovered the free DVD library where we can borrow DVD to watch in the room.
We were able to meet several rotation of staff from management to front desk to kitchen staff to the cleaning staff. Everyone was friendly and helpful.
A thousand other little things made our stay totally pleasant. 2 TVs, one in the bedroom, one in the living area. Ice maker in the frig. Fully equipped kitchen with flatware and dishes. A dozen electrical outlets through out the suite for our electronic device charging addiction. Secured external doors after 8pm added to our peace of mind. Ample parking. Walking distance (not that we walked) to a huge shopping area including Ralph’s, Costco, and dozens of restaurants. Instant-​on hot water. Shower that did not skim on water pressure. Did I mention free Internet?
Since we prepaid our reservation, checkout was a non-​event. We just loaded our luggage into the car and left. No housekeeping check, no bother, no line, no delay.
After 3 separate stays here, I can recommend this place to anyone. No, it isn’t a five star hotel. But for my money, this is where I’d be staying next time.
