Hyatt Regency Crystal City DCA Review

July 23, 2022May 24, 2015

After spending only 7 hours at the hotel, it seems a bit presumptuous to write a review about the Hyatt Regency Crystal City at Reagan International (technically in Virginia). However I think I slept a total of 2 hours, giving me 5 hours to experience the hotel. I think that qualifies me as an expert.

I booked the spectacular mistake fare to Beijing but needed to position myself at DCA to begin the run. As my flight out of DCA was at 7:15am, and I was coming from Seattle, I knew I would need to spend the night in DC. My flight arrived at 10:00pm and they Hyatt Regency Crystal City was a good option as it had a free shuttle every 20 minutes to/from the airport. Apart from the driver leaving the airport with the shuttle door still open, it was a painless experience to get to the hotel.

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego Review

July 23, 2022April 28, 2015

The Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego was one of the “official” hotels of the conference I was attending and is only a few blocks from the Convention Center. I booked a Double Bed at Costco rates as it was the best I could find; each night just under $300. There were two large conferences in town (one at the hotel), so I am guessing you could find some better rates if you go when there isn’t a conference in town. It is the largest hotel in San Diego (with 1,625 rooms).

The Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego is located on the waterfront just south west of the downtown core. It is about 10 minutes from the airport and you can walk to Petco Park, the Convention Center, Gaslamp, and downtown. There are a bunch of restaurants just across the street. Across the street there is also a light rail stop.
