“I commend Bob Rauch, the owner [of the Hilton Garden Inn, San Diego/ Del Mar] and his entire staff as true professionals… particularly Amy, Rona, Pantia, Matt, and Joanne. I stayed for one month before moving to a new apartment near the hotel and I was in a new city. Everyone went out of his or her way to make my stay perfect. They even answered my questions about nearby shopping centers, houses of worship, and exercise facilities. My family will definitely stay at the Hilton Garden Inn when they travel to San Diego from overseas.”

He owns the property, and offers hands-on personal fitness too

How many hotels have you stayed in where you’re invited to get fitness training or run 3.5 miles…with the hotel’s owner?
Bob Rauch (far right), keeps his hotel guests on the run.
Meet Bob Rauch. He shares his healthy lifestyle in a hands-on manner as he runs and works out with hotel guests at his Hilton Garden Inn and Homewood Suites in Del Mar.
The two properties attract many business travelers. The 7 a.m. runs and grunt sessions provide an ideal outlet for guests to receive personal instruction, sweat hard and attack their days with clear heads. Among other regulars, the properties are home-away-from-homes to entertainers who pass through town to perform at the Del Mar Race Track.

Serenity Spa and Salon, an integral part of the Hilton Campus San Diego, is featured in April’s issue of Lodging magazine. “Personalize, Economize and Socialize” highlights new trends in Spas. Leading the trend is the Serenity Spa Happy Hour.
“While day spas have always been a popular retreat, the concept of mini-spa services and sampler packages is becoming all the rage for those who don’t have the time - or funds - for big spurges.
Serenity Spa and Salon, on the Hilton Campus in San Diego, Calif., is combating the unstable economy by providing a quick fix. In addition to offering promotions and disconunted services, Serenity recently launched its “Serenity Happy Hour” that promotes fun express services, while introducing new clients to diverse treatments.
The happy hour offers 25-minute services ranging from massage, to body scrubs, pedicures, and facials. To encourage socializing, these discounted services come with low-cost appetizers and a free cocktail. Price points start much lower than a full treatment.
Spa Director Jessica Woolfrey expains, “I think guests are always seraching for different things to do in a group setting that does not have a huge price tag attached. We have definitely jumped on this with the Serenity Happy Hour. It meshes the right-priced services with a fun and relaxing time spent with yourself, one friend or a group of ten. The response has been fantastic!”

Staying healthy is difficult while traveling. All those germs on the plane, hard to stretch out in those seats, then it is running through airports, finding cars and hotels and getting comfortable in your home away from home. If you stay with us, we have a spa, “Stay Fit” kits delivered to your room, a general manager (me) who runs with his guests on request and also provides personal training sessions for those who want a workout, desire to lose weight or both. I’m also happy to have a healthy breakfast with my guests.
