"Some rooms in this 1886 brick hotel in the Gaslamp have wrought-iron balconies on the street, but the rooms facing the inner courtyard are the quietest."

"Rebuilt from two Victorian-era hotels, this hotel reflects the character of the Gaslamp Quarter. Rooms are individually decorated in period style and each has a gas fireplace."
Rough Guide
"This classy amalgam of two century-old hotels has fireplaces in most of the rooms and balconies in some, plus a restaurant and piano bar."
Michelin Guide
"Period decor-including the refurbished hand-carved oak grand staircase in the lobby bar-recaptures the glory of the Gas lamp District."

"Not surprisingly, the scene at this hotel is full of young, beautiful people looking for a rocking good time ... needless to say, the Hard Rock delivers."

"Nobu? Check. Rooftop pool and skimpy waitress uniforms? Check. Vegas has arrived in the Gaslamp, replete with Intervention Sundays."
