SAN DIEGO—When the Hotel Indigo San Diego-Gaslamp Quarter opens August 1, it will be the first InterContinental Hotels Group hotel to open with LEED certification as a goal. It will also be the first hotel in San Diego to pursue LEED and the first Hotel Indigo to open in that city. There is currently just one other Hotel Indigo in California—in Rancho Cucamonga. The 12-floor, 210-guestroom property was built where an auto repair shop once stood. Non-hazardous material from the building site was recycled and diverted from the local landfill. The hotel is located close to the active Gaslamp Quarter and within walking or cycling distance to public transportation.
