The Bristol Hotel

For the environmentally aware traveler, the Bristol Hotel is an excellent option. It is one of just seven hotels in San Diego to receive a Green Eco-Leaf rating, and it is also a California Green Lodging Program certified member. The elegantly designed boutique hotel, which has just over 100 rooms, is located on the outskirts of the Gaslamp Quarter, close to the excitement with a balance of tranquility.

They are part of the Clean the World project, that collects soap bars, shampoos, and other bath items from hotels. They are sorted, processed, and redistributed to homeless shelters in the United States and underprivileged countries across the world by the charity.
