Soulful Boutique Hotel in Downtown San Diego

Kimpton Alma is an ego-less beacon of Southern California cool. Our new hotel, neighboring the historic Gaslamp District and Little Italy, puts you right where you want to be—in the soul of the city. Step inside our sleek and stylish lobby that pays homage to the rich Mexican heritage directly to the south, whose proximity continues to shape our city’s famously relaxed vibe. Work or play, kick back and drift between our outdoor pool and spirited destination restaurants, where suddenly, it becomes clear…you’re at the new beacon of culture, fun and food in San Diego. The Alma Kimpton is Centered between Broadway and Fifth Ave, with bus and trolley stops just down the block. And barring traffic, we’re a ten-minute car ride from the San Diego International Airport and a 20-minute ride from the Mexican border.
