Hotels

The San Diego hotel community has been tireless in its efforts to ensure the health and safety of their guests. From state-of-art cleaning protocols to social distancing requirements to employee training to mandated mask-wearing, San Diego hotels have been at the forefront of developing and implementing safety protocols that your attendees can count on.

The California Hotel and Lodging Association has detailed those guidelines.

Coronado

The quaint seaside town of Coronado is going big when it comes to keeping guests healthy and happy with comprehensive safety protocols and plenty of open spaces to meet as well as enjoy the great outdoors. From hospital-grade disinfection and new cleaning protocols to contactless check-in to comprehensive meeting guidelines, Coronado and its hotels are working together to offer a safe and seamless experience for your attendees.

Meetings

While meetings are not yet permitted in San Diego, the SDTA has been working with local and state officials to develop a roadmap to responsibly restart meetings and the California Hotel and Lodging Association has developed a comprehensive set of safety guidelines for meetings.

These safety protocols include:

• Mask requirements
• Increased sanitation and cleaning procedures
• Socially distanced seating
• Avoidance of communal food and beverage service
• Staggered registration and meeting times
• Dedicated entries and exits to meeting rooms
• Increased pre-event communications to inform and set expectations
• Focus on outdoor meetings whenever possible

San Diego Convention Center

While the San Diego Convention Center looks forward to reopening its doors for conventions, meetings and events, it has been working to ensure a seamless experience for all its customers and their guests with new upgrades and enhanced cleaning and safety guidelines. In fact, the San Diego Convention Center was one of the first convention centers in the country to achieve the prestigious GBAC STAR™ facility accreditation for its stringent protocols for cleaning, disinfection and infectious disease prevention. In addition, its food and beverage partner, Centerplate, earned an additional hygiene verification label, Rise SAFE, which is specifically designed for catering operations. The Convention Center also has a wide range of hybrid event offerings that feature in-person programming along with virtual components from video calls for small meetings to live-streaming sessions for remote viewers to presenting keynotes with multiple live speakers in remote locations who can interact with in-person attendees.
