Editorial Review of
Crystal Pier Hotel
The Crystal Pier Hotel in Pacific Beach offers spectacular ocean views, a centralized location, and gorgeous waterfront cottages. The seasonal cottages offer a quaint, old-fashioned charm and are typically booked well in advance for both summer and winter season. Summer season is run June 15th - September 30, and winter season is from October 1st - June 14th. Winter visitors should expect to reserve a cottage at least four months in advance. Summer guests should plan to make a reservation approximately eight months ahead of time. If you get lucky, you may be able to catch a cancellation if you call to book a cottage in the morning. Usually, the hotel requires at least a 2-night minimum stay, but you can often bypass this regulation if you’re able to reserve a room the day of your arrival. With the ocean all around you and the many perks of Pacific Beach a short boardwalk stroll away, Crystal Pier is the perfect San Diego hotel for an oceanside stay.
