A very poor representation of the InterContinental brand, expired food included!

Liked:TL;DR: DO NOT STAY HERE. Two month expired food provided in room service. Security used to intimidate as part of their process to collect complaint information handled via their insurance. 1/ FOOD SAFETY + SERVICE We stayed two nights at the InterContinental San Diego because the InterContinental is a refined hotel chain around the world that we have enjoyed because of its high standards. Not at this location. They served us condiments like this ketchup jar with 2 month expired date (we stayed early June 2026) with our breakfast room service order. When contacted on the in room phone, they did not take any action to address the issue nor apologize. Instead, they promised the good and beverage manager would arrive to our room to discuss in 5 minutes, but he never showed up. I walked down to the front desk and brought the expired condiment jars, and asked to see the food and beverage manager. He showed up in minutes, and stated he never got a call or email from the in room phone team to follow up with me. He was apologetic and stated he never saw this ketchup jar before, only the Heinz ketchup which we actually received the day before for room service. I assume he debugged this with his staff. He was clearly taking this seriously. My experience with front desk and security was far worse and the reason why I am writing this review. Noah (sp) the front desk manager echoed apology, but also initiated their procedure to use their security staff to collect information from me because food borne illness claims are an insurance issue. It wasn’t clear to me that this was the case. And when security showed up, they made sure to treat me with the same aggressive, transactional, harsh manner they would treat someone they need to escort out of the bar for drinking too much. When I asked why I had to give her the info rather than start, she said, “I cannot tell you that.” This immediately escalated an already unpleasant situation. When I asked the security person to understand the next steps, she folded her arms, stood up straight, and said we will contact you when we are ready to. I clearly saw this sequence of events as intimidation and retribution for reporting a health safety issue. Noah was apologetic for this experience, handled the situation OK, but the security person never apologized or acknowledged how they escalated the situation. All in all, I wouldn’t have left this review if it wasn’t for this uncalled for and intimidating encounter with security. I do not feel safe staying at this hotel… not only because of the food, but because how the hotel uses security to intimidate guests as part of their process for food borne illness complaints. We reported this to the local public health authority. 2/ROOM The room was very mid for an InterContinental hotel. It had the high class toiletries, but they didn’t have bathrobes or slippers. When you call room service, they can bring bathrobes. They didn’t give us slippers because they said the slippers haven’t been ordered yet. The pillows were flat and lifeless. Very different from the full down pillows at other InterContinentals. Windows are thin. We could hear the trains and cars outside thru the late night. The AC white noise helped muffle this. 3/LOCATION This is the main reason why to stay here. It’s 10 minutes drive from the airport, 5-10 minutes walk into Little Italy, and there’s even a small farmers market on Saturday morning just outside the hotel. You’re also about 10-15 minutes from all other locations you’d want to see around the city, like Balboa Park, Ocean Beach, and Gaslamp.

Good view, basic stay.

Liked:The view

Disliked:Room service is closed at 9pm. Also, starbucks that is in the hotel closes 4pm. Also, you need two elevators to reach your room. The cost of the valet was overpriced.

The overrated Intercontinental

Liked:I stayed here prior to my Disney cruise. I booked here because the location closer to port. The front desk was friendly and nice. The Harbor view room shows "partial" view of the harbor and I wasn’t even able to see the cruise from my room which is a disappointment. The room smells Clorox or like a model kind of smell when I walked in. The bedsheet and towel were cleaned. However, the shower pressure was very low and water either too hot or too cold. To me, this intercontinental does not meet its standard and require attention on maintenance.

Great Facility and location but unprofessional staff that makes this un worth it

Liked:the location is pefect, the food at tbe bar was great and the facility was great

Disliked:The staff is just unproffesional, to be honest I am so tiered of tell the story over and over and over again... there is an overcharge of two days that booking.com and this property keep sending me back to one another, and no one at the hotel was even close to giving some kind of an answer that makes sense. but what really really annoyed me is the fact that after back and forth with one of the managers, I asked to get an email with her answer so I can inform booking.com, she said she cannot... really ridiculse
