San Diego, California
Mission San Diego de Alcalá Was Relocated. The original 1769 mission site was near the Presidio in Old Town. It was moved inland into Mission Valley in 1774 to access better farmland and river resources.
The hotel sits in the floodplain of the San Diego River, which for centuries supported Native Kumeyaay communities long before Spanish arrival.
Hotel Circle was intentionally developed in the mid-20th century as a centralized lodging district for car-based tourism. The Alcala Hotel continues that classic California road-trip tradition.
Just a short drive away is Balboa Park, one of the largest urban cultural parks in the United States, home to museums, gardens, and the world-famous San Diego Zoo. Many visitors choose Alcala Hotel because it sits centrally between beaches, downtown, and Balboa Park.
