San Diego offers plenty of affordable pet-friendly hotels, especially around Mission Bay and Pacific Beach. These budget-friendly properties keep costs low while providing essential amenities like free WiFi, outdoor pools, and onsite parking. Many are within a short drive of beaches or parks, making them ideal for travelers with dogs or cats. Rates often start under $150 per night, especially when booked in advance.
Among the options, San Diego Mission Bay Resort stands out with its outdoor pool, private parking, and pet-friendly policy at a reasonable price point. Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa offers direct beach access and a full-service spa, while still being budget-conscious for the area. For families, Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina features multiple pools and water slides. Downtown hotels like Omni San Diego at the Ballpark are also pet-friendly, though slightly pricier. Always confirm pet fees and weight limits before booking.
