The Dana on Mission Bay

Very good

Clean room and very friendly staff. Four days and three nights was just right.

Everything was good

One night was not enough. Although the room was small for our family of four it was more than enough and nice. The bar and restaurant were very tasty and happy hour was great. We were there in the middle of summer ending so the pool was adequate but I’m sure in high season it will feel cramped. Location, service, views, we will be back.

The Dana has seen better days. Inflation gets us all. My main gripe with The Dana is that accessibility could be improved throughout the property. The sidewalks are thin and the accessible pathway seems added as an afterthought (one was quite steep even for my light scooter -- doesn't seem safe for a wheelchair person by himself). Also, parking is relatively cramped and often overflowing. Beyond this, The Dana is at an exceptional location and is a good hotel for corporate functions with nice pools overlooking either the bay or the marina. The Firefly restaurant is quite good.

This property was perfect for our family of 5. The room was spacious and had plenty of cabinets and shelves to organize all of our things for our week-long trip to San Diego. The pool is open late and the rooms get cleaned every day. The property allows you to borrow chairs and an umbrella to take to the beach -which was fantastic. The parking is a bit pricey on top of the already expensive room rate/fees/taxes and daily resort fee. I know parking fees are common to many hotels but on top of everything else it just feels excessive, especially in a place like San Diego where it’s very difficult to vacation without a car, forcing guests to pay another few hundred dollars for parking.

Nice to have free chair and umbrella rentals but they were very cheap… maybe upgrading this would be better. I thought the cost was high for the quality. Overall a decent place and great locationz

For the rates they charge, a popsicle seems like something everyone should get. The restaurant on site was slightly above average food wise but the service and drinks were excellent. The location, service, views, and gardens were all excellent. As walkers, we both loved the walk along the coast around the marina. Definitely catch the seafood restaurant across the street from the hotel called Sportsman’s Catch (or something similar) amazing fresh fish sandwiches and excellent prices. We saw them loading in fresh caught fish in the back. Over all a 8.5/10…definitely would stay again.

Great location and staff! Beautiful property!

Location Expencive for the older facilities.

Overall good location. I prefer the bay side to the boat dock side. The rooms are larger and nicer. It was very annoying that they charge guest an added 6% to their checks if you eat at the Firefly restaurant. That’s so weird. Never seen that before. I would’ve eaten off property if I had known that .

Superb

Had a great experience with the Dana. Would absolutely book again!

Excellent service right by the beach

It is hard to get to other places if you are not going to Sea World or mission beach, nothing is in walkable distance.
