About

International Traveler’s House was founded to create memorable, authentic and unique experiences for travelers. We do this through connecting our guests with local culture, neighborhoods and adventures. At our hostel, we have a passion for community and love to bring travelers together to explore the city and make memories. We start everyone’s day with a complimentary breakfast and advice on amazing activities to showcase our beautiful city!

Located right on the sand in Pacific Beach, the location doesn’t get any better! The hostel has a large private outdoor deck where travelers can socialize, check out the waves and soak up the sunshine. Amazing restaurants and popular bars are all within walking distance. Travelers can easily access all of San Diego’s top activities.

The external floor plan offers lots of outdoor space to meet other travelers. Inside the lounge, guests can enjoy a variety of cozy spaces to relax or work from. The unique design of our bungalow style building creates a social, friendly and fun atmosphere. Hosted social events happen every evening for guests to connect and meet other travelers.

We have several room options, including female only rooms, dorm style rooms and private rooms. We also have free Wi-Fi. Surfboard and wetsuit rentals are available.

By staying at ITH, you become a part of a community dedicated to creating global, cultural and community-centric sustainable relationships. You are also supporting the sustainable measures we strive to implement in each of our hostels.

Being a guest at ITH is an experience. We offer a variety of rooms types so we can share this unique experience with as many travelers as possible. Great for single travelers or groups.

I have mixed feelings about my experience here. On one hand it was a very fun and engaging place to be at. On the other hand it got out of control at times with excessive smoking and drinking. I liked interacting with the other travelers and staff but I also felt concerned over my well-being and safety.
