Hollywood's most
glamorous stars came
night after night to
what was the resort
hotel's fashionable
Mississippi Ballroom
to drink, dine and
dance to the music of
Ted Fio Rito and other
top-drawer big bands.
The Mississippi
Ballroom is now a
popular Wedding and
Banquet Hall.
The hotel's
popularity and
tradition of gracious
hospitality continues
today. This elegant
Colonial-style mansion
is a San Diego
landmark and has
maintained its elegant
charm while offering
all the luxuries that
today's discriminating
traveler demands at
your San Diego

Diego Balboa Park
Suite Hotel &

Built by playboy
homebuilder Larry Imig,
the resort hotel
enjoyed unparalleled
success. In addition
to its impressive
guest list, several
prominent local
figures were permanent
residents, including
clothier Bill Solof,
restaurateur Ray
Lubach and padre
Baseball mangers Lefty
O'Doul and Bucky
Harris.
True to its
original structure is
the Olympic-size
terrazzo tile swimming
pool, designed by
Tarzan's Jonny
Weissmuller.
Although the final
echoes of the big
bands have died away,
entertainment still
continues nightly at
the long-established
local Sorrento Red Fox
Restaurant Lounge and
Piano Bar which serves
exceptional American
Cuisine in a casual
atmosphere.
