>> Hotel guides >> San diego >> Handlery resort and hotel

The Handlery Resort and Hotel is one of San Diego's true gems.  This family-friendly budget hotel has plenty to offer.  Some of its rooms are poolside rooms with balconies or patio sitting areas.  Hotel reviews point to the fact that the Handlery puts convenience at a premium.  There is complementary shuttle service to San Diego's biggest attractions (SeaWorld, Old Town, and the San Diego Zoo).  A whirlpool and fitness room adds to the attractiveness of the hotel.  These amenities are rarities for places in the budget hotel price range.

The Postcards Bistro is the Handlery's on-site restaurant.  There is live entertainment in the attached lounge on the weekends.  Rooms are of standard quality, with cable TV, mini-bars and other basic amenities, but it is the resort atmosphere and good-time vibe that make the Handlery a good hotel deal.

The hotel offers shuttle service to nearby attractions, though most are near enough to drive to.  San Diego's most famous attractions include SeaWorld and the San Diego Zoo, which is located in Balboa Park. There are other attractions in Balboa as well.  These include the Japanese Friendship Gardens, Museum of Photographic Art, and the San Diego Museum of Air and Space.  

Another popular attraction is San Diego's Old Town.  San Diego is one of the oldest cities on the West Coast.  Old Town still shows elements of its Spanish colonial past.  The center of this district: the Plaza del Pasado, features shops, bars, and restaurants, as well as a festive atmosphere.
