You are staying in the heart of Hillcrest! Hillcrest has a bustling nightlife scene and great food destinations. University Avenue is lined with restaurants serving global cuisines like Vietnamese, Himalayan and Thai, while the mix of cafes, brunch spots and second-hand clothes shops on Fifth Avenue make it a popular weekend destination. The weekly Hillcrest Farmers Market sells produce, flowers and cooked food.

Hillcrest is San Diego’s very own gayborhood. Packed with bars and nightlife galore, Hillcrest is a popular neighborhood for the younger crowd, though its famous weekly farmer’s market is a draw for all ages. Hillcrest’s location is ideal, too: it’s just north of Balboa Park, making for a short commute downtown, and it’s a quick ride on I-8 to get to the beach. Altogether, Hillcrest is a perfect neighborhood for the adventurer who’s new to San Diego, as you’ll find the city easy to explore from here.
