Located in the Heart of San Diego, America’s Finest City, the Town and Country Resort Hotel encompasses the “Best of All Worlds.” Just minutes from the vibrant nightlife of Downtown San Diego, the oasis of beautiful Mission Valley, and the thrill of San Diego’s beaches and attractions, sits a resort renowned for its legendary service and country feel.

Whether you spend your time basking in the warm San Diego sun or in the warmth of our friendly service and hospitality, your stay at Town and Country Resort Hotel will reward you with a rich glow of satisfaction.

What makes a hotel a legend? At the Town and Country Resort Hotel, it begins with our setting, where towering palms frame the impossibly blue San Diego skies. The scent of thousands of rose bushes and perennials waft thru the pleasant San Diego climate.

A resort is not a resort unless there are more dining options than there are days in your stay. With five exceptional restaurants, lively lounges, our own bakery and a seasonal pool side snack bar located within the grounds, the Town and Country Resort Hotel does not disappoint.

For nourishing your spirit, the world-class Bella Tosca Day Spa and Salon will melt away stress with hydrotherapy, couples massage or our signature treatments and a full-service fitness center.
