Lots of hotels in the area charge a lot for parking, this place is half the price and you just text them on the way to pick it up

The sugar tycoon got around; Coronado owes its development to him and Hawaii (Maui in particular) recognizes his participation and contributions. San Diego, too, bears his mark. This 6-story 1912 architectural creation was financed by Spreckels in conjunction with the 1915 Panama canal opening, as well as the expo. The theater has 1,915 seats, too. Abbott and Costello played here in the past. Today it hosts stage productions, comedy routines, and musicals. During our visit, there were no productions going on and the doors weren't open. Still, it is a very impressive architectural building with strong lines and minimal ornamentation that stopped us in our tracks.

Very nice venue. It is an old theater, so a bit difficult to get seated in Mezzanine section, no railing.Good view of the stage from most seats.Theater has its own Valet Parking $10/car.Several restaurants near by/walking distance. Go early, park car , then go on foot to any restaurant of your choice.

Every big city should have small theaters to attract locals and tourists alike. We loved going to the Spreckles to see Billy Elliott. They were kind to my handicapped aunt, parking was easy and the show was a delight. Good job on everyone’s part.

We saw the City Ballets The Nutcracker in Spreckels this Christmas weekend. Our seats were on the right mezzanine D Section. In the seat viewer it looked like it could a little far. But I was pleasantly surprised that we have an awesome view of the stage. The theater is located in the heart of downtown San Diego by Horton Plaza. It was built a century ago, but it has been carefully maintained. All the murals and the intricate moldings in the walls are clearly visible. The seats might not be as comfortable as with the newer venues, but you can feel so much history the moment you step in the theater. If you have a chance to watch a play or concert in here just do it, it will be an epic experience.
