“This Intercontinental boasts art-inspired design, drawing inspiration from artists like Jenny Holzer and Richard Serra, while a rooftop bar pours drinks against Pacific views. For business, it's hard to argue with the proximity to the San Diego Convention Center and versatile event spaces. However, transparency issues related to fees and package inclusions may detract from the experience.”
