Sway Lounge

Located in the -1 level of The Keating Hotel is Sway Boutique Nightclub, a semi-private subterranean lounge, exclusive to guests of the hotel and an eclectic mix of the who’s who of Southern California. Sway is ultra-chic, with its red lighting and gleaming stainless steel bar. The single room space feels like a converted loft with exclusive VIP areas divided by armless lounge sofas, and intimate cocktail tables. Relax and indulge with true VIP bottle service, where your personal host shakes martinis tableside while some of California’s best DJs provide the perfect backdrop for conversation, or a night of dancing.

The MerK Bistro Italiano

The Merk Bistro Italiano, located adjacent to the Keating Hotel, is an inspired two-level sophisticated, yet intimate dining establishment that hosts a menu of rustic Italian cuisine with a California twist. The Wine Bar at the MerK is a world class wine lounge where patrons can select their own bottle from the wine vault, or can enjoy an evening of wine tasting with a sommelier. Juxtaposing historic brick with lit glass and stainless steel, The MerK radiates a sleek sophistication while remaining a fun, delicious, and affordable eating environment for San Diego locals and visitors alike.
