July 7, 2011 - PRLog -- Andaz San Diego, an urban escape in the heart of downtown San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter, is one of the hottest places to see and be seen when Comic-Con, the world’s largest comic books convention, takes San Diego by storm July 21-24, 2011.

Ivy Nightclub: Nightly DJs, premium bottle service and provocative Lipstick Inc. dancers make this a fun after-hours celebrity hangout before, during and after Comic-Con.

Ivy Wine Bar: Guests can sip and dine from early evening well into the night when the bar becomes an extension of the popular Ivy Nightclub. This modern space features a state-of-the-art WineStation with 88 bottles of wine hand-picked by the onsite sommelier and dispensed at peak condition. The unique pouring system invites both novices and oenephiles to taste several wines from the world-class selection and discover their favorites.

Ivy Rooftop: Don your sun hat and shades and head to the Ivy Rooftop where a sleek pool, private cabanas, sophisticated bar and modern lounge areas make for a perfect way to spend the day. At night, the experience gets even better with VIP bottle service and as city lights create breathtaking skyline views and fire pits add evening sizzle.
