In the heart of downtown San Diego lies a historic jewel: The US Grant Hotel.
Built by President Ulysses S. Grant’s son, it opened in 1910 and has seen Prohibition, the Great Depression, multiple renovations, and near-demolition go by. Today it’s owned by the Sycuan Tribe of the Kumeyaay Nation who once lived on the land. They’ve restored its early 1900s glory, and members visiting San Diego should make sure to tour the building to fully absorb all it offers, even if they don’t book a stay.
