Petco Park Hotel Guide

For anyone visiting San Diego, the first question is simple: Do you want to stay downtown near the stadium or in a vacation rental near the beach? There are definitely pros to both, and cons to neither. It's a great benefit to be able to walk to the baseball game and everything nearby. But it's also a tragedy to come all the way to San Diego and stop just a few miles short of the beach.

The rooms are large and modern and it is a favorite of travelers to San Diego, baseball fans or not. How close is the Omni? Well you could definitely call it walking distance... the 511-unit hotel has its own entrance to the ballpark—it's attached to the stadium, connected by a suspension sky bridge.
