Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- This colorful Little Italy hotel gives boutique vibes with a splash of seaside flair, thanks to its breezy rooftop, sustainable design, bold mid-century décor, and curated local art throughout. You’re steps from San Diego’s buzziest restaurants, but it still feels like your own tucked-away escape.
- Ceremonies on the Ripassi Rooftop feel perched high above the city, backed by panoramic harbor and skyline views. The space is framed by shady, columned pergolas—perfect for cozying up with a cocktail or for overflow seating—and draped in glowing bistro lights for a romantic al fresco vibe.
- Stunning floor-to-ceiling windows line one wall of the GlassDoor Restaurant, a stylish spot known for its locally-sourced fare and handcrafted drinks. Your wedding will benefit from the skills of the same delicious culinary team, while guests will enjoy the stylish suites that invite lingering longer.
