Best Western Plus Marina Gateway Hotel

In National City's historic district, just off Interstate 5 and a short hop to downtown San Diego. Minutes from SeaWorld, the San Diego Zoo, Petco Park, Balboa Park and the San Diego Convention Center, this family-friendly hotel offers easy access to beaches, the red trolley and the bay — plus ample free parking for road-trippers.

A modern, business-ready hotel with 173 guestrooms, including 24 suites. Rooms feature refrigerators or mini-fridges, microwaves, LCD TVs, laptop-compatible safes and work desks. Interior-corridor access and select rooms with private balconies keep things private and tidy; daily housekeeping and contemporary tech round out the stay.

Dip in the outdoor pool or unwind in the hot tub, keep up routines in the fitness center, or grab the complimentary shuttle to the red trolley for downtown nights. On-site concierge and guest laundry make longer stays easy, and there’s free self parking and discounted access to a nearby fitness facility. Expect easy, practical comforts and a bit of San Diego sea-breeze appeal.

Complimentary high-speed wired and wireless internet, a 24-hour business center and express check-out keep work smooth. The property offers conference and meeting spaces (around 700 sq ft) plus a larger event room that handles big gatherings — and free self parking and shuttle access for attendees.

An on-site American restaurant and lively sports bar serve cooked-to-order breakfasts (available for a fee) and evening bites. Room service runs during limited hours, so you can unwind with casual bar fare or a sit-down meal after a day exploring the coast and city.
