San Diego in midst of hotel building boom

From Oceanside to Chula Vista, more than 2,000 hotel rooms are under construction, and at least 7,400 more are in the pipeline, awaiting development approvals and construction permits.

Two midrise properties within Liberty Station are under construction, as is a 300-room luxury hotel downtown, and a highrise on Lane Field is nearing completion. Further north, Oceanside has multiple mid-sized projects in various planning stages, while Legoland recently submitted a proposal for a second themed hotel just three years after opening its first.

Chula Vista hasn’t had a new hotel in 25 years, and this year it has a 300-room Residence Inn under construction, plus two more properties that are expected to start rising from the ground by early next year.
